For those who dont know, PDAViet has just released a new BA rom with thse spec : WM6 5.2.1938 (Build 18538.0.7.0.PV.HAT)Touch & Office 6.1 NetCF 3.5.
it has built in TouchFlo, and als the latest .NetCF 3.5 as Extrom...
I also have tried all the WM6 version since Helmi R0 release, Xplode's latest rom and PdaViet's WM6 OS 5.2.2000 (Build 20000.1.0.0.PV.HAT).
All are good, stable and fast.
I tried Xplode's latest rom for only 1 day and switched back toPdaViet's cause I had problems:
1. Somehow, the OK button (on top right hand corner) close apps without saving it (I had this problem when using PocketInformant and PocketBreeze - weird. I put it on forum, but no one else seem to have this issue)
2. I feel that the touch screen is not as responsive as other roms -I dont know, maybe I was wrong...but this is what i feel anyway
For now, I am using PdaViet's latest rom WM6 5.2.1938 (Build 18538.0.7.0.PV.HAT)Touch & Office 6.1 NetCF 3.5.
, and its very good...
hey i hv tested all the three but i hv not found big changes in them and switch back to helmi as i hv the backup of it. all three r same as they r helmi based. so i advised to go for helmi it also has gsfinder as file explorer.
which is the best
I have tried have all three of the latest roms but the ones that are the newest is pdaviets rom with office 6.1 and xplodes. Hemlis wm6 is older than the others so any of the other 2 are better.
It seems that the speed of xplodes and pdaviets are ABOUT the same but i find that pdaviets rom is slightly faster- programs open faster, and there is no stalling. Pdaviets is more stable- when i installed pdaviets 5.2.000 i only soft reset it about once- it works flawlessly. I can open more programs at the same time without stalling and freezing with pdaviets than with xplodes. With a great combination of stability and speed pdaviets takes the cake.
Although i can not use the touch flo cube that comes with pdaviets because of i can not get rid of my older version of touchflo i installed in my BA- for some reason i can not uninstall it or remove it but i hear it works like a charm.

What do you mean you cannot get rid of the older version of touchflo? After reflashing the new rom, whatever you have before will be gone..... just make sure you do the no yes yes option...
And you are rite, touchflo on Pdaviets latest rom works very well...
Just want to say yes, I am using latest rom of PDAViet too, and I love it. All bugs seems fixed. I just don't like the touchflo as I was using HTouch before and it works better (quicker, smoother, no flare, more open to add links...)
ftouch

I installed a previous version of ftouch before the one in pdaviets came out and i installed it on my hemli wm6 rom when it first came out. I did uninstall the program but although the file was removed touch flo was still active on my BA. No matter how many times i have flashed my BA to another rom ftouch is installed on my BA. It is very weird.
I did however find the ftouch program and it is located in my BA "windows" folder under "startup". When i try to delete that it says thats the file can not be deleted. I am not sure what you are talking about when you say " no yes yes" option because everytime i flash a rom it goes to the align screen option. Any help would be appreciated.

the no yes yes option refers to cleaning up the rom i.e. similar to the concept of formating the whole rom data.... you should do this after reflashing a new rom build.
when you reset and you get to the 3 colored screen, press and hold camera + record button for about 2 sec... use record button to choose, camera button to change no/yes... and then press mail button to confirm...
its all in wiki, under the instruction on how to update rom...
I prefer Xplode's latest release...its the fastest one by far, in my experience...can't really fault it at all....I dont like the Touch Flo...it's too slow on the BA...and I don't find it beneficial at all...just a waste of resources.

excellent! Thanks a lot joseph sapri! I just did it and i have so much more rom space and the ftouch is gone! MUCHO appreciated
no probs. I was in your position before.. . This is what this forum is for...
i see by far more people like PDAViet release
could any one provide download link and is there any thing special we have to do to upgrade from helmi WM6 ?
Thanks
Download links are in corresponding threads - THE FIRST POST usually
You should backup your data before flashing, upgrade procedure is the same as for any WM6.
Here is the link to the rom, as posted by Iced Coffee...

I just upgraded using this rom, but the sim card cannot be recognized. Any suggestions?
I'm thinking of downgrade my HTC viva from the original WM6.1 to WM6.0 coz it's browser reponse extremely slow to button on the webpage, and it's a must for me to get it work fast. I have HTC Touch WM6.0 1.17.707.2B WWE ROM utility on hand.
Can I flash it to HTC viva?
How can I do that?
Will it cause irreversable damage?
Can I restore back to 6.1 if it doesn't work well?
I don't play with ROM much. detail instruction is appreciate.
Just don't use IE, stall Opera Mobile 9.7. I have a CAB that installs it for use with Touchflo 2d if you want. PM me for a link if you want it.
Thanks XirXes, I've already PM you. I think HTC is using cutomized Opera Mobile as default for viva, which i suspect as the reason make it slow. anyway it's worth trying all the way out.
Anybody who wants it here you go. This cab file installs Opera 9.7 and makes the necessary reg edits to manila 2d so that it just works. This cabs default install directory is the Windows folder so I recommend installing to device.
Known bugs:
Bookmarks don't show up in touchflo (9.7 changed how it saves them and I haven't bothered to look into it further.)

Hello,
I have the standard rom (dutch) and I was wondering if it is posible to upgrade opera and TF3D.
I noticed that opera 9.7 beta is out and I saw a new TF3D on the Diamond 2.
Can I just download the new opera and install it?
and how can I get the new TF3D?

Not sure about Opera but to get the new or any other version of TF3D you would need to upgrade your current ROM have a look at ROM Flashing Guide link in my Signature
Hi!
I have a friend that bought a HTC Touch Pro2 and his version of the touchflo3D is just awesome, connection with facebook and other cool stuff.
So my question, is there anyway tog get the touch Pro2 version on my Touch HD?
// Gustav
have a look the ROm development forum.. there are lots of ROM which you can flash which have the Touch Pro 2 interface... I am currently using Dutty 3.9.. You can try his final 6.1 ROM called Dutty's WM6.1 V4.1 Finale
No, it isn't possible: if you want Manila 2.1 flash an HD ROM with it

The 6.5 one seems cool also, do you know if there is swedish keyboard support?
I'm using original ROM and TF3D. I tried several methods posted in this forum. Without luck, I can't find anyone working with my Touch HD. So need the expert to advise how to do that without ROM upgrade.
here is my info
ROM 1.18.707.3 (23358) WWE
TF3D 1.3.35590.0_1630.38
Thanks in advance for your helps
