Downgrade to WM6.0? - Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development

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.)

Import Manila to hp 614c??

Good morning guys. I searched it but I didn't find anything. Is it possible to import Manila (tf3d from HTC diamond) in hp 614c? Thank you
manilla 2d is possible if u have a english rom and it works very well for me.
Can you explain how to do it
Sorry for the stupid question but are you talking about the port of the 2D manila interface, running on HTC 3g? If so, please tell me where in the forum can I download the installation files. Are there any specific issues with the ipaq 614.

You can also try this ROM (WM 6.1):
http://rapidshare.com/files/165082651/614_WM6.1_19971.rar this beta but stable.
password: israpda.com
Manila is in there and works very fast and stable. The same for ROM.
ROM has been cooked by Yevg001 from 4pda:
http://66.102.9.104/translate_c?hl=...rt=280&usg=ALkJrhigVfV9tLK4nQjO6pm00-lUGJN42g
To flash the firmware:
1. Unzip archive using provided above password
2. Copy flash.dio to SD card (important!!! it must by SD (<2GB) not SDHC card)
3. Turn the device off (push and hold power button)
4. Insert your SD card
5. With the same time push: record, mute and power button
6. After ~1sec release power button then remaining buttons
7. You will get "SDloader"
8. Do not touch anything until iPAQ boot itself (you can observe progress bar)
You have done...

Have you tried this rom? It has manila cooked in right? I have the auto shutdown problem with my ipaq, is it safe if i install teh power update patch by hp before putting this rom? I guess it's only rom, not a radio update so it won't affect it, but i don't want to brick it after all... Thanks
Axlastro,
Yes I am using this ROM. It is very fast and stable (it has 12MB pagepool).
Yes Manila is cooked in.
If the power update is a just patch for ROM I believe you can install it just after flash, but if I were you I would rather wait and see if the same problem is in the new ROM - if it is then I will make the patch installation.
Yes it is only Operating System (ROM) update.

Which ROM are you useing? I am using HP IPAQ 614c CE English OS 5.2.20757 (Build 20757.1.4.0) OS 5.2.20757 (Build 20757.1.4.0) v 1.5 (yevg001) Having a hard time with BT
Formally this is WM6.1 v1.6. I described it in post #5 (above).
re: bigu1975
Hi there. I installed this rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446243 ,but it doesn't have manila cooked in. I will be flashing it again with the rom posted in the site. I noticed that some of the netcf programs won't work - they exit and report error. I'm satisfied with the overall performance of the wm 6.1 rom - it has all the hp goodies and even the camera works better i also notice far better booting times and file system read/write speeds. I do have active sync problems - the device doesn't always connect. So finally my question : Do you have any particular problems like those described by me with the version of the rom you are using.

Hi,
In general I don't have any problems related to programs. Mentioned ROM is clean, stable and it is very fast. It includes the same as HP ROM with new kernel from WM6.1 + Manila and some other useful applications which are tested and they are working fine.
I have noticed only one minor problem related to toggle WiFi using TouchFlo. It can be simple solved by the following method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2954341&postcount=9
ActiveSync - I noticed similar problems on WM6.1 on different devices. I think it is caused by ActiveSync itself. IMHO the problem is when you connect your device with ActiveSync already running. Then described problem appears. When ActiveSync is not running then it is fine. I hope I solved this problem by adding (in ActiveSync) dummy server and by setting the Sync time to manual. This already described, on this forum, solution protect ActiveSync against automatically start and also helps on syncing issue.
I have used many ROMs for 614C and I think Yevg001's ROM are simply the best. This one is the fastest one I tested. After few days of testing I recommend this one
Regards.
I have few bugs.
When I add MyFaves widget touchflo would not start and
Internet widget is not working for me?
Anyone has the same problem?

MyFaves it is TouchFlo problem. I don't use it
Internet widget doesn't work because there is no Opera browser in this ROM. I think when you install Opera it start to work. On this Manila version the Internet browser link is hardcoded to Opera. As I know in the newest Manila version it is possible to change the link to different browser. At this moment the newest Manila works only on HTC devices - we can't install it on our HP.

I need TouchFLo3d

Please, can anyone post link where i can find install cab of TouchFLo3d, i dont like WM 6.5 Today. Sorry for my English
Sorry, that's impossible. If you run WM6.5 on your device, you can't use TF3D, because this works with WM6.1

thank you...
thanks!!!!! downloading right now!!!!!
Hi, Petulinek.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful ROM with us.
This is the first time I am flashing my ROM to 6.5 and I have chosen your ROM based on your reputation and recommendations from others. I am a little worried at first but I must say that the result has been better that I expected so far.
Just one question though, I uses the built-in locking mechanism to lock my phone. Also, I runs Mapking 2007 navigation software on my mobile phone. However, I find that, unlike WM 6.1, even though when Mapking is logged on and running, the locking mechansim still kicks in, rendering the need to unlock it. Is there a way to work around this and still have the locking function active?
Regards.
This rom works on this release very well. After install more then 60mb Ram is available. I think 3d driver is also included. All is working smooth and well.
I flashed this ROM and so far so good... It's fast and stable. I love it. I installed Opera 9.7 and it's work very well. Thank's for this ROM.
BTW... can somebody give me a link for MANILA2D in CAB version ??? (Working version.. )
Greatest Work.
Stable,Fast and without Bug.
Many Many Thanks.

Biotouch.exe problem and Touchpad Input
Hello,
I just upgraded my XDA Orbit 2 / HTC Polaris 200 to the HTC POLARIS - PDAVIET ROM WM6.5 (Core 21820) by TranMinhMan.
THANK YOU!
2 questions, because I think the hardware is really at its limits here
1. when I try to slide up what used to be TouchFLO, I get an error message "Biotouch.exe" could not be opened and please try to reinstall.
CAN I / MUST I fix this?
2. somehow it just gives me 4 options for input and the keyboard is too tiny on my screen. Is there no way to use the Touchpad (called in German "Touch Tastenfeld" and is basically the keys set up like on a mobile phone?
This would be a reason to reinstall the official WM 6.1 Pro because I cannot type anything on the go this way.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP !!!!!

In settings - system - Advanced Settings disable in HTC TouchFLO :
Scrolling, Cube, Sound...
Then press Done, reboot and system will be little faster without error message about Biotouch.exe

TF3D on m3100?

hi, can i get tf3d on spv m3100?
any help apreciatedd
Get a ROM that have a TouchFLO 3D.
However, I think it's too risky to flash a new ROM for TouchFLO only.
You better rely this to the experienced person who have successfully flashed at least a ROM.
You can download ThrottleLauncher too, it's free, and looks almost same as TouchFLO.
Thank you..
UPDATE : You can! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541750 It's the TouchFLO 2D from HTC Touch2 (HTC Mega), download the "HTC 2DManila 2.0.19191432.04.Patched.cab" if you use 6.0 or 6.1, It works (slowly) on my Hermes, running on Official WM6 ROM

[Confused]Manila CAB files

Hi all
I am running the stock ROM on my HD2 but would really like to get the eReader Manila page - can this be added by an upgrade or do I need to flash a ROM with that version of Manila on....
If I am to take the flashing plunge, and put on something like 'Lost In Asia V 0.8.5' or some other lite ROM without Manila, will that mean I can Install Manila from a .CAB file, and therefore upgrade it at a later date without needing to flash the ROM? - and is Manila even available as a .CAB file or some such - I did have a look around but couldn't see anyone hosting one??
And finally, what's the difference between Manila and Sense? I thought Manila was just the Manila Page app, and Sense was the input device swishy finger software??? but often I see references to these two in other contexts...
manila and sense are interchangeable names for the htc front end.
No you cant install manila as a cab, it is cooked into the rom pretty deeply.
(unless i've missed something? anyone?)
