StarROM 2.0
2.0m - Tf3d2 (http://starmans.wackynoodle.com/ROMs/StarROM2.0.rar)
2.0t - Titanium (http://starmans.wackynoodle.com/ROMs/StarROM.2.0t.rar)
Bugs:
Comm Manager Skin is messed. Install This - CommManager Fix (http://starmans.wackynoodle.com/ROMs/Topaz_Comm_Manager.cab)
HTC Calculator link on the start menu doesnt work ( found a fix )
Solution:
htcCalculator was already installed, the issue was only that the link on the start menu was not connected to the actual program. So you just go to Device/Windows and scroll until you see htcCalculator in there. After that hold down on it and copy. Navigate to Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs and delete the HTC Calculator shortcut that is already there. Then just paste shortcut and if you want you can rename the shortcut to HTC Calculator instead of htcCalculator.
Windows Media Player link on start menu doesnt work ( found a fix )
Solution:
The same procedure as 1 except the file you are looking for in Device/Windows is wmplayer and you can delete Windows Media shortcut from Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs and then paste this one and rename it to Windows Media.
If Opera 9.5 Beta is closed using the x button in the upper right instead of using Menu > exit > ok the widgets menu comes up and you cant reopen Opera without either a soft reset or using a dask manager to end the opera9.exe process.
Solution:
The only fix for this is using the Menu > Exit > ok instead of the x there isnt a fix that i have found other than that.
The default lock option is not 6.5 default; it is the old device lock from 6.1 ( found the fix.. this may have been outlined somewhere and I overlooked it )
Solution:
If you go to Start > Settings > Lock > Display Tab > change to windows default instead of windows classic and it will be the 6.5 lock press ok and you'll be all set.
I won't be held responsible for anything you do to your phone!!!!!!!!!

My personal preference for wm6.5 roms on the Touch pro... I love this (and ATR 3 TF3D!!)... now if only I could dual boot this thing...lol... but a nice rom never the less, will be updated to 1.4 soon so If anyone want to flash, it may be worth just waiting...

o ya i forogt to say im running the 1.4 rom. it a great rom and fast and smooth. the only problems im having with it is the clock is 1 hour behind and i have instald the fix for it from the atr rom but it work untill the phone goes to sleep when u turn it back on u have to reset the clock. also in the tf in the contacts u cant add pic's. u have to go back to the 6.5 interface to add the pic's too the contacts and it works that way. other then that thats it. those are the only 2 problems im have with this rom. he said that this weekend he should be putting out 1.5 but he's sick right now so it might take a lil longer. witch is understandable. can't wait for the next 1 to come out. well i hope that helps with info i gave for the 1.4 rom.

Interesting... good reveiw... I too am on 1.4, but I havent had any issues like that, the clock is the most consistently precise one ive come across for tf3d2, and works flawlessly for me w/ the g-alarm patch... as for the contact photo, havent noticed... snce most of my contact and photos are setup together from previous flash so when i run pimbackup, it restore all my contact w/ pics in tact... still doesnt sound like too major of a prob... id ask, tho... when you flash did you pull battery and hard reset? works wonders for getting those lil bugs worked out from fresh flashes...

ok now im really having a problem. when i flashed this rom was about 10am yesterday i played with it all day cuz i was off from work. i went to bed about 12am. now that it is 7:30am i grabed my phone and tryed to turn it on it wouldnt turn on the throttel lock was not wantting to work so i soft reset when it starts to boot. it gets to the touch pro screen witch is the first boot screen. at the bottom of the screen the radio drivers and all that stuuf that comes up when u turn ur phone on. well thats about all my phone does now. i still can put it in bootloader i can try and reflash. or u think a hardreset might work? for hard reset the phone has to be off then hold volum up soft reset and power botton, right?

ok sense i had to hard reset, this rom runs flawlessly fast smoth as i have stated. there is 1 thing that does not work in the tf contact edit. if u add a new contact to ur contacts u can't add a photo in the tf. u have to go to start/setting/today and dissable tf3d and then go to start/contacts/add contacts/edit. there is no fix for this that i know of but sense i have been messing with everything sense i have flashed this rom thats the way i found out that u can edit ur contacts so yay for me i found a loophole behind the bug. but other then that best rom i've used so far.

this rom is fairly large gys... about 105 meg download... and sendspace is very slo... there some megaupload mirrors posted in the thrread at ppcgeeks... ill try t find in a li bit to update 1st pst... it helps save on dl time... trust me...
not trying to bash the atr rom but is this one better? if so why?,...thanks bro
Truthfully I wouldnt say better, but different... main reason Im running w/ this rom is because one i got a taste of 6.5 and seen it running very smooth nd flawless... even better than 6.1 in some case, like scrolling and look... i had a hard time going back to 6.1... I also love the fix to the clock issue in rhodium with the galarm patch (although i find myself using basic win mo today screen more and more) the battery life is great out of box, and so is performance, and it only gets better with the inclusion of the registry settings and tweak from Taylor... but truthfully... if this was a basic 6.1 rom id probably still be on atr, but 6.5 has spoiled me.... outside of that... everything else is actually similar to atr, performance wise and battery wise... its an impressive rom... and im just waitin for my Atr fellas to release their own 6.5 rom(although it may not be for a while) and I can come home!

yeah You need the Usb to PC pop-up cab... I had posted it a while back on the original thread at ppc... but ill upload it here for you in a minute
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cab uploaded... Ill upload the first post with this cab and other goodies that are posted w/in that thread, that help make this rom close to complete...
1.5 is also available, but not a lot ha s changed... and in fact it seems starmans took some feedback from others that didnt work out... currently 1.5 is getting negative reveiws and for battery life, the new build of opera having issues and some other minor stuff, even starmans admits to having issues, but he has some major plans for 1.6 so Ill wait to update then, unless someone else wish to post 1.5... but as of now, most everyone is suggesting staying w/ 1.4...

the cab I posted is different than the htctopcpopup... I found that one pretty useless... the one i posted gives u the option to choose, either active sync, nass storage device or internet sharing, when u hook up to you pc... i didnt like the other as all that did was notify you that you were tetherd a give u the option to "hide window" this one... i needed this one to get my internet sharing hack to work, give it a try if you like

what i was wanting to do is fix my problem and i have by hard reseting the rom has it build in and did not know it and when trying to add the usbtopcpopup it messed it all up. wel im going to stay on 1.5 now that i know not to install that because it's build in. other then that the 1.5 rom runs just like he 1.4 no difference to me. batt is just as good if not better, because it has been 15 or 16 hours sense i flashed and i have been playing with it the hole time other then when i was sleeping of course. and the batt is down to 60%. if thats bad i dont know what to say. some people may not like the opera bata 2 because u cant zoom in and out from the d-pad like u can with opera that coms with the tp. but as i like to use my phone all time and on the net i want speed inbetween web pages insted all the feturse that the normal opera has. bu that just me. there is only 1 bug wich i have stated and thats it.

I flashed the 1.5 rom and I'm loving this rom with win 6.5. My problem is when I go to my internet menu, and press launch browser, nothing happens. If I click a link in a txt or something it opens Opera, other than that I have to go to programs to find opera and open it. That leads to my next question, is there any way to set my favorite programs only like I had with win 6.1, cause I hate scrolling through everything to find programs.

did you pull battery and hard reset after you flash, that usually clear up weird random bugs like the one u described w/ opera, no one else seems to be experiencing that...
as far as the programs list, you cant try installinging a new theme, which will probably give u the defaulted progam launche w/ a fixed number so u can add your favorites, or search for the basic progra launcher cab to get rid of the all programs.. if i comes acrosss one ill post it up for you... but till then 'search' engine here will be your best friend!

wait I just rememberd... the opera build in 1.5, is the new Opera beta 2 build, and for some reason that error/slash glitch is a know issue for 1.5... I believe the developer will be fixing it in 1.6, but for now unless you can got into manilla and fix it for you, you may have to deal with it... or installing the older version of Opera will overwrite the new one and fix also...
Ill see if i can find another alternative, like the manilla fix cabbed up... but no promises

Thats a good idea I'll try that, thanks. I will still re-flash and take battery out because I actually still have the ATR screen pop up when I reset my phone, its been working so I did not worry about it.

By far my favorite rom. The only gripes I have is the slow switch from landscape to portrait and vice versa and the all programs tab...same as the start menu. I asked him in his thread if he could make it removable from customize tabs in settings or if he can make it a favorites tab again. He is currently online at ppc geeks so there might be a chance 1.6 comes out today???

Hey everybody, I don't know if anyone is using the 6.5 base. I have been playing around with it and found some neat programs that make it more usable. Hafrust at ppcgeeks made a great tutorial on how to fix the weather on the today screen with Titanium Weather, and also gives step by step how to add a couple of panels to your 6.5 today screen. Please READ the instructions carefully before you make changes as the panel add ons affect your registry files and if you mess it up, you will end up having to hard reset. The weather panel blows away the one in TF3D2 by the way. The phone is also way faster without Touchflo. You should all try to get familiar with 6.5 as it is the future of WM. I like Starrom the best, that is why I added it to this thread. The moderators can do whatever they want with the info. If this helps please hit THANK YOU.

Hi 1.7 has been out for a couple of days. it is on page 107 of the original thread at ppcgeeks. I would post the url but i keep on getting warnings about coding them and I am way too tired to figure out how to do that right now. Also, he stated that he is coming out with a newer version of his rom tomorrow, so flash at the risk of knowing you might be doing it again real soon. 1.7 is awesome. The best one so far and SUPER fast.

ok i have been running 1.6 for 2 weeks and i have to say its a great rom. but there is a couple things though the data connection stays on and that eats the battery fast. also i froz 2 times in the last week but softreset and its good as gold. the rom is fast. the tf3d2 runs great nice and fast as well. the 6.5 interface runs great as well. other then that cant say much more.

ok i just went over to ppcgeeks and was looking through the thread about 1.7 and there a 2 versions witch neither are really complete. starrom was in a car reck and his tp got destroyed. he said when he gets a new tp he will be fixing all bugs for his latest rom release. all of the 1.7 roms and everything he released is what he had on his computer and not completed. so if u upload 1.7 they are still in bata and u have have to download and install fix programs to get them to work right. well i hope this will help. for me im staying on 1.6 untill he comes back with a finished 1.7 and runs better then 1.6.
p.s. i think big jew posted the data fix that he had to use on the chopper rom because that rom was doing the same thing. could some one re post that for me so i can upload it. thanks alot

Not Quite sure if you read my original post but 1.7 is complete. There is 1.7m which is manila and 1.7 the other one for titanium only. He was planning on coming out with a newer one than 1.7 as I stated in my original post. You should give 1.7 a try. You will not be disappointed. IT IS NOT INCOMPLETE.:evil6:

you will need to use winrar to open the rar file and than once you have it open follow the guide and as long as you are unlocked all you have to do is connect your device and make that partnership and than run the custom RUU or the romupdateutility.exe... it will be named one of the two nad mixed in with aout 10 files or so in the rar folder. hope this helps and feel free to ask if you have further questions.

I did have an issue with the alarm not playing the sound that I chose so I tried the G-Alarm that was cooked in and it told me there was a alarm bug but it would fix it with a soft reset and now the regular alarm works perfectly!!!!!! The media player is hott! The internet sharing is a little slower than usual but I only use it when I can't get service so no big deal. I will continue to run this rom for a while and I will update with anything else I find. Thanks again for this bomb a** ROM!!!!!!

thanks for the review on the touchflo version of this rom. i am on the titanium only rom and loving it! havent had any freezes or glitches what-so-ever thus far. i started with a fresh battery for the flash and set up all my apps as well as set up and tinkered with wisbar advance desktop for over 2 hours, as well as texts and calls inbetween and still have 50% battery life left with the screen on full blast brightness like i always have it set :) but so far so good and it is running WAD great as well as titanium also at the same time with no troubles so i can alternate between the two of them very easily.... i will be writing a comparison review on this later tonight between this rom and sss rom and the pros and cons to both....

Here is what i think of Star2.0. The Titanium on this rom runs the best out any 6.5 I have tried yet. I like the fact the Favorite People and Weather where built. Opera tab is great too. Loaded down the rom with lot of apps and it still ran great no matter how many apps I opened. Like Dash and Venum have stated the 6.5 lock not being on there it being 6.1 is a down. The Keyboard laggs alway at the start of the text too, so have to give a few seconds before texting. But overalll a really great rom.

well it is there...... to get the 6.5 lock as venum found you have to go to start/settings/lock/display and change it from classic to windows default.

yeah they try to make flashing as easy as possible. Alot of the roms are this easy to flash, but most are not this stable. Starrom is still running extremely well after 3 days of use, this is the first time this has happened for me on a 6.5 rom...wow. lol

this just shows to everyone that 6.5 is not stable enough for everyday use and with all the great chefs out there we are starting to get competition which makes these roms even better :)

i think i'll be sticking with this for a while. i don't think the weather in the tab is for my area though? i've only played with this for a minute but i didn't see where to change it. also, there are a few things, like calc. for example that don't work. i get "cannot be opened. either it is not signed with a trusted cert., or one of its components cannot be found. try reinstalling or restoring this file." what's the fix?

you would have to remap your calculator to the one that you have or are you meaning that the calc wont even open fro mthe start menu? and for the weather you highlight the weather tab and than click the lower right hand soft key on the device and you will get in the set-up area for your place..

to change the area for weather, when you are on the weather tab, in the bottom right there is a "Options" option, click that and you will have a few different items to select from, choose "Forecast Options/Setup" then press ok then select "Zip or Location Code" then press ok then type in ur zip code then press ok, then press cancel, then press "Run Weather Update and exit" and then press ok and you should be good to go.
As for the calculator issue, I uploaded this cab (originally posted over at xda by mbarvian ):
http://rapidshare.com/files/237195246/HTC_Calculator_VGA_Main.cab
if you run that on ur device then it will ask you to restart, once it restarts that calculator icon will work; however it will create another one down at the bottom of ur apps, if you wanna get rid of it just go to file explorer and go to windows/start menu and you shoul dbe able to find it in there and delete it, that will only delete the shortcut so you'll be good.
Good luck, and thanks for pointin these things out!

battery tweaks no but i did go into HKCU/Control Panel/keybd initial delay change to 0 and the initial rate to a number of your choosing..... (lower faster usually but not always... depends on rom, i use 25)

I flashed the tf3d rom last night. It was very fast and smooth. even when I switched to the windows default. I did notice there was no program launcher tab, so I flashed to the newest Mighty Rom 5.
I know tf3d2 has bugs but I can't wait til there is a stable wm6.5 tf3d2 build.

do you mean your stuck with the wm 6.1 lock instead of the 6.5? if so there is a fix posted for that... all you have to do is go to start/settings/lock/dispay and change from classic to windows default.

Dash is referring to a reg edit so you have to have a registry editor first and then when you open it there will be about six paths( I think) all of them starting with hk. The one he is referring to is hk current user, then you open that directory and follow the path he specified till you see the string he said and change the value. Be careful with reg edits because if you do something wrong you might need a hard reset. They aren't that difficult but you can mess up your phone if you do something wrong

I don't think you deleted the original themes because they were left out when the rom was cooked. That was one of my original problems with the rom but I was able to find a theme in the theme section that I like thanks to Dash. I am currently running the Crimson Darkness theme which is pretty hot.

I assmue you installed more panels besides the opera one? If so try re-installing the opera cab. I had problems with some of the panel's disappearing after I installed a bunch at a time. i.e. AT favorites, facebook, and opera. usually a reinstall clears up running issues.
I sure I only have panels that came with the rom, thats why i flashed it as it has everything I need stock. I installed sms 160 hack, opmon, sprint update, sprint nav, nuekblight, sdk cert? for the blue carbon panel I still have star background,keyboard speed hack which doesnt do jack from what i can tell, and music id, and I believe thats it. Still does it even after hard reset, so everyone elses is fine if so Ill reflash and try again.

ok after messin with it a bit more i found that if you are in opera and you press the menu button ( bottom right ) then press exit, don't press the x button in the top right cause then the widgets thing comes up and thats what screws with it. I dont know why this is, very annoying, maybe we'll get a different version of opera in next release...hope this helps ya
Yes annoying and hard for me to break a habit as far as the way I exit programs, also to do it for just opera is weird. I like this rom and everything it offers but I goota use the net haha. Ive flashed to silence rom x 6.5 which is not far off from the star rom the only thing is touch flo as I liked the fast it wasnt on the star rom. Bottom line is everything works the way that Im used to working them and Im liking it. I will be watching for an update for this rom and Ill try it again.

Posted this over at ppcgeeks for starmans so he knows whats goin on, ill add it to the first post as well...its the fixes for all the glitches i have found
Yeah please post the fixes
ok here it goes...
we've been discussing this rom over at www.wckediden.com and we have a few things to post, i dont know if any of them have been posted already and we've found fixes for a few of them, just wanted to put them out there for starmans to know they exist. If you want me to post the fix we found i can do that later...
1. HTC Calculator link on the start menu doesnt work ( found a fix )
2. Windows Media Player link on start menu doesnt work ( found a fix )
3. If Opera 9.5 Beta is closed using the x button in the upper right instead of using Menu > exit > ok the widgets menu comes up and you cant reopen Opera without either a soft reset or using a dask manager to end the opera9.exe process.
4. The default lock option is not 6.5 default; it is the old device lock from 6.1 ( found the fix.. this may have been outlined somewhere and I overlooked it )
That being said, I am sticking with this rom because i really think it is the best out there right now for stability, battery life and speed. It really works great and I applaud starmans for his great work.
1. htcCalculator was already installed, the issue was only that the link on the start menu was not connected to the actual program. So you just go to Device/Windows and scroll until you see htcCalculator in there. After that hold down on it and copy. Navigate to Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs and delete the HTC Calculator shortcut that is already there. Then just paste shortcut and if you want you can rename the shortcut to HTC Calculator instead of htcCalculator.
2. The same procedure as 1 except the file you are looking for in Device/Windows is wmplayer and you can delete Windows Media shortcut from Device/Windows/Start Menu/Programs and then paste this one and rename it to Windows Media.
3. The only fix for this is using the Menu > Exit > ok instead of the x there isnt a fix that i have found other than that.
4. If you go to Start > Settings > Lock > Display Tab > change to windows default instead of windows classic and it will be the 6.5 lock press ok and you'll be all set.
Hope this helps anyone with issues.

so im guessing all the lil kinks are worked out now sense the last time i was here asking about the new rom? other then the picture mail, witch u have stated a fix for that. well shownuf and dash i would like to here back from yall on this.
ps. sense this thred started it has came along way with the starrom's. i still remember posting comments on the first page of this thread lol.
Off charge at 8am back on charge for maybe 20 min then of to see korn its now a little after 12am and Im on 20%. I took pics a little video finally sent some pics * and used the phone normally during the day, so awesome battery life. I ended up using ie for my default browser, I signed into my windows live account and it created a new tab that I can launch the internet from it.
*I couldnt take a pic and send it, it would say it was to large and ask it youd like to resize it hit yes. I got tired of waiting, I would have to go to where its stored and then send and there was no trouble.
Great rom, and korn rocked.

my review.
i have put this rom through major hell and back for the results and this is what it spat out.... the battery life on this device is amazing. i can easily send and receive 500 plus texts a day and use the internet for weather, light browsing, games for downtime, downloads of files, talking, email, etc.... mad props on the battery life :) for the functionality of the rom i am still amazed at how smooth everything is on this rom. the titanium is snappy and bug free, everythign worked as it should, and the list could just go on and on. star is on to something here and i feel that with a few more versions many people will be flocking from all the other roms including the mighty which hasnt been to good lately but he will be back i know it :) this rom is awesome and wouldnt run anything but this right now since i havent heard of another that are blowing people away.... (until the release of fourthcoming)

Hey. I just flashed to this this morning after reading Dash's review of the SSS rom and this rom and i enjoy it very much so far except for one thing. When i'm using touchpal for texting and i get into a long message. During message, my screen will freeze for 5 seconds or so before finishing the message. I thought this was a problem with touchpal so i reinstalled it and tried deleting all the old messages from my text messages and then even tried a hard reset. still no good. It never fails that i get the freeze. Then i tried another wm6.5 rom to see if there was something with this rom but no good, it seems to happen whenever i use a 6.5 rom but not 6.1 cause ATR was cool with touchpal. I wanted to know if anybody else had this problem and if they found a fix for it. Thanks. I appreciate all help. and i do greatly agree, the battery life is insane. I don't have to worry about keeping a charger with me right now cause my phone lasted the whole day even after the flash and restore with PIM and with checking the basketball game every 2 minutes tonight. Good work!!!

Lol it's killing me when I'm texting at work with the virtual keyboard. and does anybody have a problem with the text messages application not letting you close a conversation and open another one until the current message has been sent?

star is pretty active on fixing the fixes when he sees people comment on them... he only replies when he needs to.... but for the keyboard there is a fix for that freeze... all you have to do is not use fngerkeyboard.

Ok review time.....
When I first installed this ROM I was very impressed. The speed and smoothness are definitely above average. Everything came up as soon as I tried to open it, with the exception of a few programs that I had to manipulate to open(such as Windows Media Player). For the first day, I tested the battery with little to know usage, and to my pleasant surprise, the battery was still at a whopping 65% after being off the charger for 15 hours. I was, needless to say, very impressed. There, however, is where my impressed opinions of this ROM came to an end. The next day I decided to see how long the battery would last with heavy usage. After approx 3 hours of internet surfing, texting, and listening to music, I checked the battery status. I was very dissapointed to see that it was at a dismal 20%. I then came to the conclusion that the ROM is fast, but at the expense of a very quick battery consumption rate. The ROM was adept at preserving battery power with little phone use, but what good is that really? When you have a phone as powerful as the Touch pro, you want to use it. Not use it as a paperweight.
After my dissapointment with the battery power, the ROM was pretty much as expected in regads to performance and battery life, based on my experiments the first two days. After around three days however, my phone started having random freeze ups, programs would not load properly(if at all) and the phone began to take an excesive amount of time to boot up. I first thought this was because of all the installing and uninstalling I was doing(for the review videos I was posting in the themes section) so I gave the ROM the benifite if the doubt, did a Hard Reset and repeated the flashing process.
I had assumed that this would correct the flaws I found in the ROM. I was, however, wrong in my assumption. The same problems surfaced again, this time after 4 days of use. The battery was also giving the exact same results.
So, all in all, in the end? I give my first impression of this ROM a solid 9 out of 10. My opinion after 1 week, however, drops drimaticaly to a 5 out of 10.
This ROM has so much potential and is already on the correct path for greatness, but the chef has some issued they will have to iron out in order for this ROM to truley be a "Star" ROM.

Yeah, real talk, I have to agree with you! I feel like the StarRom has pretty much shut the game down for the moment! I have flashed several different Roms over the course of a few weeks. While all of them had their own very positive qualities which made them stand out, the negatives usually outweighed them and this has caused me to run right back to the StarRom! In some instances an hour later, lol. StarRom has a few minor issues that can be worked around but all in all, this is the best WM 6.5 Rom I have used! I am also waiting for the ATR Platinum Edition to be released and from the review videos and them revamping it with a new stable release....I know it will stack up pretty well with this Rom. Can't believe how great this Rom is guys, thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!

2.unzip to your desktop
3.then in the newly created RUU directory add the rom of your choice - (copy the RUU_Signed.nbh to desktop\RUU)
4.Place phone in bootloader mode (power button while holding volume down button)
5.open the ROMUpdateUtility.exe
6.follow the RUU on screen instructions from there
I do not see a nbh file it is a rar file and when I click on it, it will not let me extract it and yes I do have win rar and win zip on my computer.

Did you always have these issues or is it something recent?.. if you always have, id ask you if you pulled your battery and did a hard reset after flashing, doing up clears up a lot of weird randomness...
If it happened recently and wasnt always this way Id say it something you installed or some registry tweaks gone wrong or any number of things, in which case it may be time for you to back everything up and hard reset, to clear out all the weirdness...

copy paste from the first post of every page
"If Opera 9.5 Beta is closed using the x button in the upper right instead of using Menu > exit > ok the widgets menu comes up and you cant reopen Opera without either a soft reset or using a dask manager to end the opera9.exe process.
Solution:
The only fix for this is using the Menu > Exit > ok instead of the x there isnt a fix that i have found other than that."
This sucks for me as well cause for me its force of habit to hint the x button but a soft reset will fix it.
Ive tried both roms and I end up using titanium on both, Ive had a progressive problem with both from battery life to freeze ups. I think I put of a static charge or something cause vista crashes once a day at least haha. My boy is hooking me up with the D/\SH dust and everything will run like magic woo hoo.
Im going to flash titanium verson again and hope for the best.

you have to go to stasrt/settings/personal/input and turn off predictive text under second tab on bottom and than you can also go to regular compact qwerty keyboard instead of fng keyboard and make sure not on t-9

i can turn it off for fng keyboard and comp qwery, but not on the "phone keyboard" i go to word completion (second tab) and nothing is checked. i tried to check the "suggested words" box, than texted, than unchecked the box, then texted again but no change???

no, i did that also.
Heres a screen shot of what mine looks like in order to turn it all off. Just like D/\SH has stated but I dont worry about anything but the word completion. Hope it helps.
I still have 100% battery after 12 hours this cant be right, may never have to charge again haha.
I was wondering if there is anyway to have visual voice mail and have it to where you can scroll through it on titanium like you can do with all the other tabs in titanium.

ok, I've read through this ENTIRE thread, and maybe I'm missing it, and this maybe a stupid question, but I'm getting a TP in a few days, and I'm doing my homework in advance...........
where are the Carrier Cabs for this ROM? and I assume as with all the other roms there are a couple, in order to make the MMS work?
Thanks for all your reviews guys, seems this will be the ROM my TP will get!!!!:yahoo:

i can turn it off for fng keyboard and comp qwery, but not on the "phone keyboard" i go to word completion (second tab) and nothing is checked. i tried to check the "suggested words" box, than texted, than unchecked the box, then texted again but no change???
I got you covered bro, this happened to me on ATR. Try sliding your phone open in a message and on the hard keyboard hit the green function(FN) button and then push the space button and a little popup should appear and choose the ABC option and the "suggested words" shouldn't pop up anymore...let me know if that works

Decided to give this ROM a try, but I have a few questions:
1) I downloaded the TF3D version b/c it said that it contained both TF3D and Titanium. Don't know if I'm going to use TF3D much so if I disable it, does that mean the Titanium remains? (not sure I even know what Titanium is).
2) Does this ROM have the .netframe work loaded in? (didnt see it).
3) When I opened COM Manager, my WIFI is greyed out (I did install the Topaz comm_manager cab?
Thanks!

One more thing: the calculator link worked for me, but not the WMPlayer. So when I try to fix it should I copy just the wmplayer file or the WMPlayer.exe file?

did you apply the comm manager patch as stated in the first post and throughout the thread? and wm player.exe wwhat are you talking about......
The calculator works fine on the tf3d version but not on the titanium. I found that using titanium it is easier to just use the music tab and not worry about going to the start menu. Its cool that when its playing music you can swipe left or right to cycle through songs.
The whole copy and paste fix didnt work for me so I instead deleted it from start up and just installed the calculator cab and all is well. Not saying it is wrong probably user error but this worked for me.

Yes, I appled the "topaz_comm_manager.cab" and when I use the file explorer to scroll to "Device/Windows/" I see two items, one says WMplayer the other says wmplayer and has the media player pic next to it (that's the .exe file I think), I'm not sure which one I copy and past to the "Start Menu/Programs" folder.

OK, well, IDK what happened, but the comm manager problems seems to have fixed itself, so now that issue is solved.

you will want the exe..... the lnk would be used in different circumstances and has to be used in instance of office, calculator and other built in apps.

Thanks, but I think I spoke too fast in my last post. One minute the Comm manager was working fine, both wifi and data connection tabs worked, not only the wifi works and the data connection is greyed out.
What gives?

well after the installation of the cab did you soft reset....... something like that would need a soft reset for it to take effect. you could also ty a reflash in case it was a bad flash.

Sure will. Just so I'm clear, I do a reflash, remove the battery, install the fix, then soft reset.
About the hard reset after flashing, you know how after the fashing finishes the phone resets, calibrates and goes thru its set up? Well, I assume that you have to let it do all that first, then remove the battery and hard reset, right?

naw you can hard reset at anytime.... ido after i place the battery back in.... press and hold the power button, volume down, and the center key while soft resetting to get into bootloader.

So you can innterup the setup process after the flash and just remove the battery? BTW there's a pagepool.exe file in the ROM. I assume that runs automatically with the flash and does not have to be run separtely?

U only use that if you want to change the pp setting, but usualy what the rom developer sets it as is good enough... i suggest leaving it alone till u have more experience

pagepool i would wait until you get a little more experience before messing with that.... and for the other after the flash is complete i take the battery out for aminute place it back in and without booting up do a hard reset by pressing and holding the power and volume down buttons while soft resetting with the stylus.

OK gonna try it again tonite. Couldn't this weekend, was at the DMB show at SPAC.
Hey, I like TF3D, but really intent on using a mobile type shell. So if I'm gonna do that, would it pay for me to just install the Titanium version and not the TF3D to save space or resources?

if you arent going to use touchflo 3d than go without it since it will save you a lot of hassle and space on your device.
