Bell UI!!!!!!!

So the new bell ROM as been dumped by MIXXY over at ppcgeeks!! The UI is pretty sweet, and in my opinoin, much more intuitive than TF3D! I know nothing about working with ROMs, but can someone here possible rip the Bell UI and make it a cab for easy install for people? or maybe even tweak it out!?
I put this here rather than rom development cuz its for the UI, not necessarily building a rom.
Now the rom is for CDMA phones, so please don't try to flash it to your GSM. I flashed it, i'm on sprint, no issues at all and i'm loving it! EDIT: I never had an internet connection before flashing this, i had butchered my phone a couple days ago, so i dunno if the internet will work. according to juggalo, the bell authentication is different and won't allow it, but my phone calls work flawlessly.
if someone can test the internet using a sprint or telus phone, please post
EDIT2 it works thanks to yangers for testin it out!

Thanks brother!...
This is point ui??? not just bell devs tweakin there own ui? it doesn't work like point ui tho, point ui has opposite scrolling when you finger flick... this bell ui does not

So far as i know, the programmer who did Point Ui worked together with the "Bell-Boys"

..a screen-shot would say more.

Well we are looking for someone to extract from this ROM the UI and create a CAB for an easy installation....But I'm trying to find out if you can install this in a phone from another carrier than BELL (Canadian CDMA company) if you don't have a CDMA phone don't even try to install this cause can't work....I hope this info can help you to understand a little bit more.

Thanks for the answer. I was just confused because in the post above it was said that he wants to install on the diamond.
I have a German Xda Diamond. So I guess it won't work

well, actually, i'll update the OP, i never had an internet connection before flashing this, i had butchered my data connection a couple days ago, so i dunno if the internet will work. according to juggalo, it won't because of the bell authentication, but my phone calls work flawlessly... i won't know until i get my new diamond in on friday.

dude, i'm definetly diggin it! the contacts and everything... you don't even have to use the start bar anymore! everything is in the UI!!!
also, if you hit the HOME hardware button, the UI dissappears(really great if you want today plugins!), but you tap the top bar (where your signal bar, batter and Ev are) everything comes back
there is virtually no lag in this ui, i really really like it! Can't wait till sprint apps can replace some of the buttons, ie Video to Sprint TV

FM Radio for Tmobile Touch Pro 2 owners

I searched around for a FM Radio player for my Touch Pro 2, and i couldn't get none of the apps to work. Even the ones from this site. So i came by something today and it worked, and it even displays the Radio Station name. Cool!
Anyways I downloaded this file from Rapidshare.
http://rs367.rapidshare.com/files/239750180/HTC_FM_Radio.cab
It works like a charm. For those on planning on installing this, first i would suggest app unlocking your phone, and install .Net Compact Framework.
Works for me.
----------------
Now playing: Enigma - Waiting For The Hurricane
via FoxyTunes

ahh, good to know. The other radio thats stickied in General messed up my texts and other such functions. Thanks for the upload. :]. hopefully it does its job and doesnt interfere with anything else...

Phone storage
Ya I love this program but it only works if I install it to the phone memory and not my sd card. I also work for T-Mobile and its stuff like removing the radio that bugs me. Some genius must have thought this was a great idea at corporate. This phone was so downplayed because T-Mo was so afraid it would step on the mytouch sales.

lets try this, thnx a lot

Hi - I'm new here and just got my tmobile tp2 yesterday. How do i 'app unlock' my phone?

Post some screen shots!

Doesn't work on CDMA TP2.. Too bad, I thought we were on to something here.

Is yours CDMA? I have the Telus TP2 and it installs but wont do anything once it opens and no stations are found..

it worked for me because i have a gsm phone

Thanks for this, working quite well. I didn't do an app unlock unless that was related to the sim that I transferred from my MDA.

everytime I run FM it tells me my wired headset needs to plugged in

Hi,
Just got my touchpro2 a week ago from t-mobile.
You don't have to unlock the phone to get the fm radio to work.
Listening to it right now and it works great!
I have the .NET framework on there though and it has helped a number of programs.

First let me say thank for this cab.. but could someone upload it to other place.. no rapidshare. thank you

T-mo TP2 radio working like a charm here in Australia!
Cheers!

Cant install FM radio on T-Mo TP2
I cant install this app at all and i really want it BADLY!! I'm almost certain it has something to do with me not having the proper certificates or the most recent version of .NET framework or maybe i need to app unlock it! IDK! Could someone pleaassssse post some cabs for this issue? (Y_Y.) BTW: I have stock ROM.
P.S. Any recommedations on what apps 2 install on my Tmo TP2? It seems i have a problem installing any and EVERYthing on my phone! i never had this many problems w/my Dash!

Tellme ripped from Samsung Intrepid

Anyone have it yet??

I am eagerly waiting for this too. What is Microsoft's deal on this. I thought it was supposed to be originally launched with WinMo 6.5.

I wish your title had a question ? mark at the end of it. Without it, it appears to be more of a statement. got excited for nothing.

I've not been able to get this running on my Fuze. Probably because I'm not running WM 6.5 though

So I was the sprint store last night checking out the HERO, right next to it was the Samsung Intrepid it had the TellMe app on there so copied the install.exe file on to my tp2 to see if it would install. I can get it to install but the app wount launch. anyone wanna give it ago to see if they can get it working?
*update*
I guess to get it working you need to have netcf 3.5 installed to make it work.
some are saying touch works, some are saying it doesn. I guess its hit or miss.

Thank you,
btw on i780 (wm6.1 build 21109, netcf3.5 already in rom) it crashes when it reaches 82%

I get to 72% but then it says "There was a problem Starting Tellme. Try again later

Installed and touch works. Recognizes contacts but when texting, I say what I want it to transcribe and it says thinking...then says cannot connect to network. Also if I say pizza or whatever it doesn't recognize anything or open default browser. I'm on AT&T and also tried disabling the proxy.
I also went under Program Files/Tellme/ and ran the update tool. It seemed to uninstall and reinstall. But it again still does the same. I've also been dabbling in the registry...but didn't find anything of much help.
I'm going to keep messing with it and see if I can find something..

I got it running on sprints 6.1 stock rom on my TP1. i actually got it working on 4 different roms today, just not the one that's my favorite, dcd 2.16 wm 6.5 Strange thing is, another guy on ppcgeeks said he "did" get working on dcds 2.16 rom. almost seems device dependent in some cases.

Everything works great now using activesync for internet.?

I installed it on my Tilt 2 running wm 6.5 and when I try to text someone I get an error saying that "can't access mobile network", but everything else works, It also is pretty slow.

Yeah all the problems associated with this program thus far are pointing to network issues. I'm starting to think it isnt 6.5 dependant.... Especially since dschoenike got it working on his Sprint stock rom

Amnya over at PPCgeeks posted this cab file. I installed it and low and behold the programs now on the phone. That said, I cant do much with it. Any search I try just comes back with a network error, same with sending a text message "can't access mobile network"

I cant even get it running on my diamond with bsb 6.5.1 rom. Installs itself ok (or at least it doesn't throw up any errors), but when i try to run it nothing happens.

it installs ok on my touch hd wm6.5 manila 2.1 (miri v29) but when i run it nothing happens. I just see "tellme" briefly at the top of the screen where the clock is and that's it.

WinMo 6.5 T-Mo Upgrade & Wifi sharing

I had the Wifi sharing cab with my old 6.1 windows mobile on my touch pro 2 which worked great. I got the upgrade to 6.5 through T-Mobile USA and when I installed the wifi internet sharing cab that I got from here, I cannot find it anywhere on the phone to use it. Any ideas?

Why would you need to install anything? T-Mobile puts it on the phone for you.

The OP is refering to WiFi internet sharing, not blue tooth or USB.

So it's not in the 6.5 version? I swear on 6.1, I had wifi sharing built in. HTC menus and all, no need to install a cab.

Wow, I don't see it. What the hell am I remembering then!?!?! I remember HTC menus and setting up my wifi network to share, password and all. All without WMwifirouter.

You mean this one?
I think this is what you're looking for....

oh wow, I just checked my screenshots of my cab list from previous and there it is. Wow, for months now, I've been telling people that the T-Mobile version comes with tethering right out of the box!

True. Well it's good to know that I have a backup to WMWifirouter, if that ever "fails" again...

How did you get 6.5 from t-mobile.I just got my tp2 and it came with 6.1, and should I upgrade now or wait. i like to wait to make sure people are not having problems with new updates before i bite

Are there any pros/cons to upgrading from 6.1 to 6.5?

PROS: New lock screen, new start menu, visual voicemail, search phone function, some minor improvements throughout, apparently a better radio for more exact service signal, better/faster GPS/cellular triangulation, weather on home page, weather based on GPS location
CONS: Greater risk for errors with installed programs (see services.exe thread), new start menu, you have to hard reset to upgrade, slightly more RAM usage

Thanks for the info and links. I already upgraded and I like it, now Ican play with it some more

all settings should be under the settings tab. If your not using sense I forget what the other stock UI is called. then just go to settings. and it should take you to everything and you should see connections on there. if you want I can post screen shots to help you out just let me know if you still have trouble finding it. Took me a while to find it too.

[Q] 'genie' news and weather widget on 2.2.1

Hi,
Thanks, I've been running the Darkstone rom since yesterday lunchtime and have got it all set-up and it seems to be charging ok too without having switched off once which is great, so thanks to everyone that has worked on that.
One further question though, concerning the 'genie' is it, news and weather widget which doesn't seem to be included on this build, can i get it for the 2.2.1 build as I found it very useful?
Thanks again
MM
p.s. the battery only seems to charge to 95% any ideas?

Since that can't be a NAND Rom, i suggest you boot your phone into WinMO and charge the battery to 100% there, and restart. Then your problem will be solved in regards to the battery.
On the other question, sorry, I have no idea how that genie widget can be obtained

I can't promise this will work, but here's the widget as from my System\App folder.
Hope it works for you mate

Thanks for your help guys. I'll try the battery charge on Win Mo 6.5.
I've tried the APK file johncmolyneux kindly gave but no joy, it comes up as 'could not open...' :-(
Shame this as I really liked the news widget on main page of phone.
Thanks again for your help and if anyone else has a fix it'd be very much appreciated.
MM

Here's another I found. Hope it's more use to you...
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/01/18/install-genie-weather-widget-from-android-2-1-2/

Boo!
I tried that too, thanks for the links but same thing, it just doesn't want to work. This one did install ok but just gives a 'force close' if i try and open it.
It does say for 2.1, and this DS build is 2.2(?), is there an issue because of that?

I doubt that's an issue, as 2.2 is compatible with 2.1 apps. Don't know what the problem is, but it looks like you're gonna have to go without.
I use it too, so I know your pain. A few SD builds I used didn't have it, so I was really pleased when I found it on my current builds.
I never did find a suitable replacement either.

Hey JohnC, thanks for your replies. Which build are you running?
DarkS is proving a solid build, everything works great except the genie widget.

I've now got the BBC News and Sport buttons on my phone main page if anyone has a working version of the Genie News and Weather widget for the Darkstone 2.2 SD build i'd greatly appreciate it?
Everything else is sweet as a nut, so I don't want to change the ROM build just yet for that alone...
