The US Cellular version of the tp2 has the weather in the clock, with weather animations on the home screen like the hd2 has. i was wondering why cant we just copy all of the manilla files from the us cellular tp2 to the verizon/sprint tp2 to have the same htc sense ui that us cellular's tp2 has?
that way you wont have to flash roms or anything?
jump to 5:55 in this video to see the weather animations on the us cellular tp2

Hey dude, things don't work that way. It's a different version of Sense (aka Manila) that has the weather animations.
Not sure how to explain why it doesn't work that way. It's like saying you can just add a couple of files into the Windows directory to upgrade your OS from WinMo 6.1 to 6.5. It just doesn't work that way.
Notice that on GSMarena they add a device completly semilar to the HD but with the code T 8285 and it have a defferent UI apperance any one have any idea about this?
The T8285 is used on the Telstra NextG network in Australia. GSM(900+1800)+Umts(850+2100).
So what about its manila it semes different !
Customized and branded to suit Telstra. Easily flashed with other roms.
Thanks for your replay
I am looking for a modified cooked rom for TMOBILE HD2 with
-added stability\same stability (it's actually great)
- performance - dont mind a few tweaks
- no silly apps
- Setup Connection menu, so that I can add other 3g networks other than tmobile (they locked it only for them in the stock rom)
Any suggestions ?

Hello,
I'm finally buying the HD2 that I should of bought when i got my nokia N97.
It's the T-Mobile flavor by design as i intend to use it on iWireless 3g which is an affiliate and uses the same 1700/2100 3g.
I intend to unlock it via code and then plan to unbrand it via firmware and via facia replacement.
I'm looking for the latest unbranded/streamlined/stable T-Mobile USA rom that is out??
suggestions???
also, will i need to replace the boot splash or is that included in the rom?
Thank you
main suggestion is go to the tmous (t mo us) specific section and look there.
less risk of flashing the wrong thing.

The U.S. HD2 has smaller physical dimensions than international HD2s.
well the front facia is specifically for T-mobile hd2(but unbranded) so i still fail to see the problem..
I unlocked it, hspl3, and flashed 3 diff roms so far.
kumar, energy and now laurentius v4 which im extremely happy with.
So basically a done deal.
unlocked, debranded, and now using iwireless 3g 1700/2100
within an hour of receiving it thanks to this website.
So whats up with the screen position??
my n97 changes the orientation as i turn the phone from up to landscape and back..the hd2 seems to only do this in certain apps and menu items?
is this a hardware issue or win mobile?
I guess im just a little confused about this..

The screen rotation is only enabled in certain apps, yes. The easiest way to enable it in a program that doesn't have it already, is to download and install BSB tweaks, which has an option to let you asign auto-rotation abilities to virtually any program that you can install on your device.
Thank you.
and btw..
I found this rom to be very nice
HD3.0 UnOff Series 21914
so far is my fav.

New Question
Ok,
Things are going great...love the phone. blows away the N97 in most regards...
I Really like it.
MMS & WAP all configured on the phone which is running "unlimited - 3G Talk Text Data" Pay In Advance with iWireless(T-Mobile affiliate)...3G working Great..etc..
The Question I have now is can i run a T-Mobile Rom and enter my own mms settings? or will it just default to the locked down tmobile mms setting on the stock rom? Is there a new version of a connection wizard-tool-setup that has Iwireless prepaid and actually will work with a T-Mobile Rom?
I'm using the cracing Rom at the moment and really like it but I also like the idea of using the stock T-Mobile roms...even though iWireless is a T-Mobile affiliate they do not share the same mms settings...
LIL HELP?
is there a config tool to do this for me or a reg hack?
my current rom has a great "Connection Setup" app which works great..
I'm beginning to ramble so i will just leave it at that and I hope someone Can help with this...I presume someone else has been in this situation..??
the connection app you refer to is 'connectionsetup' which all roms except tmous have as standard.
Do a search for connectionsetup.cab, its available in several threads. Plus, since its a cab install, you can install it, it runs automatically at restart, sets up your connection, then you can uninstall it, saving 12meg.
yup, i found like 6 of them and found a couple that work quite well.
I have a new question...I'm having problems with icons being jagged on apps that are installed after the flash...
Is there an icon rebuild app or something to remedy this?
rebooting doesnt fix it..
its driving me nuts..
I have a nice looking list of apps etc and then these straglers that look oddly out of place due to their resolution...
there is i think an icon cache which you can clear, but ive never dealt with it so dont know where it is. Look in the hints and tips threasd maybe.
I have an OKTA Touch (CDMA HTC Vogue branded as Okta Touch) running WM6.1 and am considering upgrade to WM6.5 using NFSFAN's WM6.5 1.00 FINAL ROM.
Any caveats or pitfalls?
NB: the version of NFSFAN's WM6.5 1.00 FINAL ROM that I downloaded is missing README.DOC.
Would be grateful for any info.
Thanks in advance.
I would recommend using my XevRev rom over NFSFAN. The main reason I say that is simple: Stability. NFSFAN's rom is older and crashes (quiet a bit in my experience).
I am currently working on my 1.0 final release, if you'd like, I could compile a rom for your carrier. Would that happen be Telecom NZ? I'm hoping to have 1.0 finished no later then this Monday (Feb 17). It wouldn't be much trouble to compile it for another carrier.
Just respond here and I'll get back to you.

I have in fact done the upgrade and so far have had no problems, although I was disappointed to find that the WAV restriction on alarms still remains and that the files have to be in the Windows folder. Also found that sounds for notifications are not picked up from the Ringtones folder as they were in the version of WM6.1 that I had, instead they have to be put in Sounds or in Windows.
My carrier is indeed Telecom NZ.
Is a carrier specific rom really necessary?
Will happily try your version so long as I can fall back easily to what I have in the event of problems.

Yeah a Carrier specific ROM would be beneficial as each different carrier has it's own different setups like whether or not your can send MMS (picture messages), can use data, gps, wifi that sort of thing.
The OKTA ROM is basically the same as the Sprint ROM just with the GPS functionality disabled, MMS disabled and a few other options either enabled or disabled
NFSFAN's rom was fast and stable. Pity he moved on to bigger and brighter things!.
If you want to use XevRev's rom, use the Bell version and run the Telecom carrier cab (posted somewhere in the XDA Touch forums).
I found Bell to be a better fit than Sprint - Sprint messed about with the data connection, causing it to get very messy trying to set it up forTelecom.

There appear to be 2 versions, 28014 and 21889, what is the difference and which is best for OKTA?
I know Xev really prefers 21889 for compatability and speed. He also finds it to be very stable. When stability was the only thing I was worried about, I developed NuVogue using 28014 but TheXev was right, 21889 really is the way to go - so many more things seem to work with it (Swype, HTC Touch Keyboard, lots of little things just work better!).

Would appreciate any assistance.
Thanks.

I have uploaded it to my website. You can download the NZ Telecome Carrier CAB here:
http://winbreak.com/winmo/voguegoodies/ - at the bottom of the carrier CABs list.

Thread moved to General.
BTW, remember to unlock your device before flashing.
Is the sequence in which ROM and CAB are applied vital?
I assume ROM first and then run CAB.
Extremely vital. Flash the ROM using egzthunder's step by step guide, then apply the carrier CAB. No carrier CAB and your data, sms, and sometimes even phone calls won't work.
