Actually on a lot of the latest builds you can do this.
i am using l26 3.55 wm 6.1
dont see it
you need 6.5 my friend, i think, well ive used 6.5 and its always been on that on various different ROMS and TF3D versions so im guessing its a 6.5 thing.
Hello
As mentioned above most recent 6.5 Roms have these features.
Here and here you can find two of many roms that include those options.

just to check, is it the same as the HTC sense in that video?
ok let me rephrase my question..
what i mean is..
sometime back, i saw a HTC video on a release of a platform call HTC Sense..
its main feature is that.. you can view communications from 1 contact point .. the person..
for example i go to Person A's screen.. i can see all phone calls sms... emails etc of A...
so these HTC Sense roms we are seeing, is it the new platform in that video?

Alright, so I have no experience making a ROM, but I figure I might as well learn. I personally am interested in a ROM for the HD2 that just uses Titanium - none of that messy Sense nonsense - and to the best of my knowledge the current ROM chefs aren't too interested in that.
However, considering I can always just turn off Sense, it seems like a lot of work for just me. Is anyone else out there interested in such a thing? I presume you'd want it based on 6.5.x, not the standard 6.5?
If there's enough interest, I'll get started tonight.
Also, if you are interested, please post what other add-ons you'd want pre-installed. I'd like to keep it fairly basic, and allow users to add their own customizations later, but I figure maybe at least 4-column start menu and slider at the bottom.
Would be a good idea to have one. I'd love to have compatible themes as well for it. It's really tough searching for them as nobody is really into that anymore. Titanium would fly on our phones as HTC Sense for WinMo is pretty slow compared to it's Android counterpart. I ran HTC Sense on my Nexus One and it was crazy fast and the Nexus One has less RAM and ROM space than the HD2
I like to use the phone without Sense, but recently with the Elegancia ROM from steve0007 I have been using it with Sense enabled. When I disable Sense, there is a weird issue on the HD2, and I think I experienced it with other ROMs too, where the default menus don't disappear from the screen once I have tapped what I need. They just stay, blocking the screen, and the only solution is a soft reset. It'd be nice to have the ability to enable and disable Sense at will without an issue like this. A ROM without Sense at all might be a solution but I prefer having both options.
Miri has a couple options out, Titanium only or without both. But you have to go over to that 'other site' to get them.

Just checked it out. Looks like its based on 6.5. Nothing wrong with that per se, but without Sense you lose the HTC apps like contacts, calendar, etc and 6.5.x is a nice upgrade over 6.5 in that area.

I'm sorry, can you explain this a little more? I've used stock, Energy, and Kumar's ROMs all with Titanium and I don't think I've seen that one.
I'm using a really basic rom right now with HTC's stuff disabled. I prefer the WinMo 6.5 style today screen, SMS app, and speed. I've tried a bunch of roms and sense just bogs the phone down to the point that they keyboard becomes slow and unresponsive and that drives me bonkers!
FYI - I've been playing around with kitchens, and have what appears to be a stable version of a fast, basic, Titanium-only ROM running on my phone.
I'll play around with it some more to sort out bugs and clean up my kitchen a bit more. Look for a thread with the ROM download in the coming days!
I'm relatively new, and will do a search here shortly, but Titanium? My biggest gripe with this phone is the messaging app. It always lags heavily every time I get a new text, as well as other weird time stamp issues. I would be interested in a ROM w/o the HTC messaging app, and if Titanium is it, them I'm game!
Like I said, I will be searching RIGHT after this about what all this is, and if there's a solution to what I'm looking for now.

Titanium is the default Windows Mobile 6.5 interface. If you want to see what it looks like - go to the settings tab, hit menu->all settings->today, go to the Items tab, and switch to Windows Default.
And you're in luck - I am using the standard Windows Mobile messaging app as well.
I got a ROM building as I type this, I'll let you guys know how it goes

Here is a link to the ROM: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654218
It is for the T-Mobile HD2. It is probably the best looking and most stable I have used on any Windows Mobile phone...and I used MANY on my Touch Pro2.

How did you get the standard winmo messaging app? Even after I disabled the sense UI it still used the sense messaging...

Sense UI and HTC messaging client are different but interdependent.
The HTCmessaging client may still function without sense UI.
If you want windows messaging, try here or need a cooked ROM like my Lite version ROM.
How is this coming along?
Anyone have any links to some Titanium ROMs?
i know nrg always puts out a titanium rom
NRG does have a Titanium Rom, however I have noticed a lot of programs are pre-packaged into the Rom that I would never use.
An Elegancia Titanium Rom would be the best of both worlds in my opinion. No fluff and allows for your own additions. Or a NRG Rom without the extras. Just my .02 in what I would like to see.

I would recommend either Energy or Kumar's Titanium ROM, depending on what you're looking for.
I had something that was ok, not great, when the more established ROM chefs started putting out Titanium ROMs, so I figured I'd just leave it up to them.
Do you have a link for Kumars Titanium Rom? I see the Lite version but is that the same as Titanium or is there a separate thread which I am not seeing?
I'm going to download the Energy Rom but have a feeling it will still have too much added for my liking.
I have Telus cdma Touch Pro 2(wwe)...n i am in love with my phone...i have customized everything n have Mr.X sense 2.1 rom installed with cookie home tab i have also customized the keyboard buttons to start applications...preety cool..i was wondering which is the
1.best wallpaper
2.ringtone
3.text alert

n do any1 knw if any developer figured out how to use Volume + n - if we use iPhones earphones??
Hmmmm dont you think those are all based on ones personal preference and choice?
ya i just want people to tell me their fav's....coz i m trying to find the best 1
You should have just done some reading. There's threads out there that cover this... most importantly this thread right here: Rhodium Screens This is usually ALWAYS on the first thread page of the subforum
Thank you so much
n please can any1 recommend me some ringtones
don't know about the ring tones mainly cause I don't like them. When I did use them in the past, I would usually trim a portion of a song that I liked and used it as a ringtone. As far as the rom is concerned, I use cell evo rom series http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622883
Cell Evo Roms are all GSM sim roms rite...i like Energy Rom 2...which rom do u think is really great for battery life for u...i meant 2.5 roms...n for ringtone i use to use Htc mp3 rip software 2...i got a cool funny ringtone u might like..

Just a thought but maybe you might want to change the title of your thread. Judging by the questions you asked, you're not asking what is the best "ROM" available. You want opinions. Opinions on thinks that do not pertain to the ROM itself.
Well in my opinion I believe McCune's Cosmik Debris is the fastest ROM out there. After a clean flash, the screen rotates in like less than a second lol and EVERYTHING on it works fine.
It's super clean and if you want sense 2.1 or 2.5 there's cabs out there that install it onto your phone and you can then install the cookie home tab or what have you.
That's just my 2 cents though ;p.
mrx roms are good

I am not sure if you can switch to default or anything, but there are heaps of sms apps on the market, a couple of which are pretty good - once installed you can make it the 'default' app, disable notifications in the htc version and away you go.
Using the stock keyboard
I'm not sure what the old keyboard you were looking for looks like, but I was successful at adding the stock keyboard (with voice input) back as noted in my recent post in the thread titled "Froyo 2.2 Keyboard APK" (post 20).
Sense was was a great improvement for WinMo, but the UI kind of sucks (imho) for Android. I upgraded to the FroyoStone update the other day and it seemed more stable (less SoD, that's for sure). But the HTC junk scattered across the UI ruined it for me.
the darkstone thread has a link for the apk of the kb youre looking for. search don't ask they'll bite your head off
I love the MIUI roms other than one aspect - the dialer. Is there any way to completely replace this with either the default Android dialer or HTC's? I have installed Dialer One over the top but all this does is alter how a call is made but the in call screen and receive call screen (slide up/down to answer etc) stays the same.
Cheers in advance.
Can anyone help with this? I'd love to get HTC's dialer working on this build.

I'm pretty sure there's a way to do it. I currently have an Xperia x10 and I've replaced the Phonebook.apk file (Located in /system/apps) with a modded one. I'd imagine the same concept can be applied to a cooked HD2 ROM. The only problem is if a dialer has dependancies with other services (Like sense dialer), you may come across issues.
No.
HTC uses htc libraries. You won't get them working on another rom.
(That's why you never see HTC apps outside sense )
You can, however, download dialer one or similar from market - or push the stock apk file
I recommend you use rocket dialer
you can find it from the market
Try "go contacts". Best dialer/contacts replacement imho.
