Noob questions about my T-Mobile Wing

Ok, first off, I just want to let EVERYONE know that I'm VERY new to the WM6 platform, having purchased a T-Mobile Wing, just recently. The phone was locked when I got it, but I used a sim-unlock service to unlock it. I've been working on Motorola phones for years now, so I'm not a total stranger to flashing, too. I've already successfully changed my slider tones and added a NES emulator to my Wing(which was all pretty basic, really), but now I'd like to start flashing some ROMS, particularly Touch-IT. My question: By flashing a new ROM to the phone, will it RE-lock the phone?

not trying to be an a**hole but kinda look around or search b4 posting

For a matter a fact, I DID do some searching b4 posting, and didn't run across the post you have so graciously pointed me to until after I had already posted a new thread. Sorry to have inconvenienced you, but I'd rather not mess my phone up, as I'm VERY new to the platform, as stated before.

I want to install a program, but dont know how to use .cab's
Its really easy.
1. Connect your computer to your device via USB
2. Explore your phones memory, and copy a downloaded .cab from the internet to your phone
3. RUN the .cab from your phone through the File Explorer
4. Whatever setup it is, it should complete, and it will delete the .cab afterwards to save space.
I want to backup my device:
Active Sync will back up your contacts, calendar, emails, notes, files and program data.
In addition, you can use PIMBackup for your Call Logs, Messages, Speed Dials, etc. and either Spb Backup or Sprite Backup for a full system backup (i.e. you won't have to reinstall all your apps as long as you restore to the same ROM you backed up from).
What are the different reset functions?
Soft reset - hit small circular reset button by volume slider(on wing) or bottom of phone (on Herald)
Hard reset - Press and hold both softkeys and press the soft reset button, continue to hold the softkeys til a prompt is brought up asking if you're sure you want to format. Press the call button to comfirm.
Enter bootloader - Press and hold the camera key, then press the soft reset button. Hold the camera button until the bootloader menu shows it. You will see 3 different gradient colors.

I want to install touchflo, but I need more instructions:
Here are my steps I used to install touchflo:
1. Download which version of Touch IT you want. For the Last version made, here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340403
2. Backup any information you wouldn't want to lose. Either backup to memory card or PC; your choice
3. At this point, You need to install the official RUU for your device, if you're already running the official RUU, then you need to hard reset your device. (Press and hold both soft keys and press reset button, continue to hold softkeys til screen displays to hard reset. Press the call button to continue). If you need to install the official RUU, continue to step 3a4Here is a list of uploaded RUUs
3a. Enter bootloader on your phone (Hold camera button and press reset, continue holding camera until a screen with 3 gradient colors shows up
3b. Connect your computer via USB to your ppc (Pocket PC)
3c. Run the RUU .exe from your hard drive, follow its simple onscreen instructions and click check boxes necessary to continue with the installation. This should take a few minutes, and you will more then likely see your screen flash and change things, this is normal, let it work. After a few minutes it will boot up and go into "automatic customization of your device", I continued this (screen alignment, tips, auto setup), and waited for my device to be totally ready for me to use.
4. Connect your device via USB to the PC and wait for activesync. If it automatically pulls up a profile for your phones sync, delete that profile. If it asks again to setup device for syncing items, click cancel. You will still be able to explore your phone and install devices without setting up the sync profile for your phone.
5. Make sure your phone is connected as a guest, if it is not, make sure it is. The method I used to do this was this zip file I ran "guest only" registration entry. (Make sure and run allow partnership registration after completing installation), but it should display as guest after the hard reset.
6. Copy aserg policies.cab to your mobile device
7. Run aserg policies.cab from your device
8. Soft reset (use stylus for button on side of wing, or on bottom of herald)
9. Go into your comm manager on your phone, and disable "phone". Basically enter flight mode so nothing can be sent to your phone during this process.
10. Once booted, its time to give it a shot. Make sure you're still connected as guest, and run !Upgrade_rom.bat from Touch_it folder on your PC
11. This will bring up a command prompt waiting for you to hit a key to begin, press any key
12. During this time it is installing, NEVER touch your phone or play with it in any matter. It may look as though the command prompt has gotten hung up at times, but leave it run until it completes (or fails). your phone will pop up a message saying "unknown status" or the likes, but dont close that window, like I said just leave it alone.
13. If you have no error messages in the command dialogue box then you're ready to hard reset your phone. (press both softkeys, and press reset, continue holding softkeys til you see a dialogue asking if its okay to restore settings, hit the call button to finish it)
14. Your device SHOULD boot normally, go through setup, and you should be golden.
If at any time there is an error during install, but you still let it complete, you might have a chance at it working. Hard reset it after completion (even with errors) just to see if it works. If it wont go past your Tmobile or HTC picture screen on bootup, then you have bricked your device. To UNbrick it, run steps 3a through 3c and reinstall the RUU.
If you get any errors, try and try again. Its proven working on several devices.

I want to sync my outlook contacts, but activesync doesnt work!
I have found a workaround for this.
1. set up a windows live account (if you havnt already)
2. at the windows live homepage, import your contacts from outlook to your Live account
3. set up email via your Wing, on step 4 it will allow you to sync with Hotmail and Live
4. contacts should sync
This is a "quick fix" to the real problem not being able to sync. Using this method will store them all on your SIM, and make it Lastname, Firstname (annoying to me)

So, you were COMPLETELY stock and went straight to TouchFlo? BTW, thank you for the info!

Goodmorning...
yes i was stock, now i have the touchflo 2.3 with 6mb pool and over clocked 250 mhz and a few registry edits. i want to upgrade to the 4.4 version that they have out but not in no rush.....

Ok. Now I'm kind of confused. I've gotten to step 6, but when I unRAR the ASerg Policies, there are 2 files found within: _setup.xml and POLICIES.000. I move those files onto my Wing and them view them via my file explorer, within the phone. They look exactly like that, 2 files, not a .cab. So, I'm not sure WHAT I'm doing wrong here, but I'm doing something. Anyone?

are you sure theyre not a cab?
the .000 files are usually in cbs oh and the _setup.xml too.
you might want to save instead of opening when you download it

The ASerg Policies were in the TouchIT v2.3 folder, RAR'd. When I UnRAR them, all they are is the 2 files. Like I said, I know I'm doing something noobishly wrong, I'm just not sure what it is, LOL!!!

Monday bump!!!

Stop using tyler's kit ... its almost a year old... and outdated, as well as an outdated method of flashing.

HAHAHA!!! Holy noob!!! Soooooooo, Instead of UnRARing the ASerg Policies Archive, I just drug it onto the phone and the .cab worked! LOL! Brilliant. I'm going through the process, right now, to see if I can get TF to install, without bricking my Wing. Thanks for all of the help!!!

So far, so good! TF is up and running!!! For some reason, the cube feature doesn't seem to work, though. Any reason for this?

Anyone have problems using activesync? This is my third ROM install, each ROM being from a different developer... and activesync is still doing the same exact things to every single one.
To put a new ROM on I have to put the original T-mobile ROM back on, where activesync does work, then I repeat the new ROM install process. Still activesync refuses to work.
The grey circle turns green and when I click on activesync... It says connecting but eventually it will come up with the error and I can either press ok or troubleshoot. Basically the short error says no mobile device found.
Any help is appreciated thanks.

}
Step 3: Customization
Once you've loaded a stock ROM, you can customize it to your own needs. You can exclude packages, add new packages, or edit some of the app.reg files to tweak it even more.
Keep in mind however that some packages are required for some core functions of the ROM and/or HTC Sense. (Ex: OEMBASE)
Step 4: Build the ROM and Flash
Once you're ready, just go ahead and press the "Start Cooking" button, this will take a while so go take a walk or something...
When the process is finish you will get a file called "ruu_signed_0409.nbh" in the folder "Flash"
This file is your ROM, it's built and now ready to be flash, this can be done in 2 ways:
- via PC: you can flash it by running "ROMUpdateUtility.exe"
- via Storage Card: rename the file from "ruu_signed_0409.nbh" to "LEOIMG.nbh" and copy it to your device to flash it from the Bootloader.

sense language files
Thanks for your kitchen. The only thing I am missing are the sense language files. Could you include them in your next kitchen so that I can change my sense interface in dutch.

Hi,
I gave multiple tries to cook a rom, but no avail. Though, this is the first time I am trying to cook a rom for HD2, I had cooked many times for my previous devices. Cooking gets completed smoothly and even the flashing is successful, but after flashing when the device gets booted, the home screen would just not load. I can do everything else like invoking start menu or dial or whatever, but when I click on Home, the last application screen remains, and home will not load. Looks like a problem with HTC Sense? I will detail what I actully did below.
What I was trying to do was, removing three of the packages from the kitchen. So, after loading LEON_WWE.fe project, I unchecked the following EXT packages:-
1) YouTube_2_6.....
2) Opera_Browser_9_70...
3) GoogleMaps_4_1_0_....
That's it. Now when I go ahead with cooking, everything goes smooth and the process gets completed. Now, after that, I do a Task29 and flash the new cooked rom. Everything is smooth till that point except that, as I mentioned above, the home screen would not load. Please note that other than the above 3 changes, I didn't do anything else, before clicking the button "Start cooking". I tried multiple times, but couldn't solve the issue. After flashing, even I tried a hardreset, but that didn't help either.
Kindly advise. Sorry, if the post is a bit lengthy. I thought, I would explain everything.
Regards,

Yes, it's all selected. Though, under "05 - HTCSense_2_5_20121412_1_ENGINE", four eReader related options are unchecked (which was by default). And in "07 - HTCSense_2_5_X_TWEAKS", everything is selected except "HTCSense_Remove_eReader_Stock" and "HTCSense_Change_LSK_CallHistory".
And HTCSense is selected under "Start"==>"Settings"==>"Today".
It's not that Homescreen showing empty, like when we try to uncheck the option under Today settings ("Start"==>"Settings"==>"Today"). Even the homescreen backgroud is not visible there and the screen stays with whichever last application I had opened. For example, after flashing normally the "Connection Setup" screen comes. So, when I click on the Done button there, the "Connection Setup" doesn't go away, it just stays there. After that when I click on Start, the start menu comes without any failure. But, now when I click on Home button, nothing happens, and start menu stays there. It's as if it is stuck at there, but all the applications runs, after that.

Hi Sir,
I have try now to cook the rom with the same template i have post you, and after Connection Setup settings, HTCSense interface start well....

had to hard reset..need flash/roms etc

ok so i have had the hd2 for a week or 2 now..been kinda bad tbh...allot of random reboots on streaming, msn wont sign in, sometimes it just freezes and have to soft reboot it..so now ive hard resetted it and i would like to have a small and helpful explanation on what rom i should get (your opinion) and why, I only want to use msn and internet most of the time and music...so i dont need something where i can uber mod my phone..my current phone looked like this :
{

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
i read that roms are kinda like the OS of a pc, the thing that makes it all work and run...i dont see what could be so different but there are wayy to many roms to choose from that i kinda lost sight in whats good and whats not for me... so if any1 could help me on my way id be very thankfull!

Personally i would do the following:
1) Get the latest stock rom for your provider from htc.
2) flash it.
3) Hit the tips and tweaks thread and the performance tweaks thread.
3a) Install all applicable tweaks (note: there are some that must not be applied to 1.66 and above roms. You'll also need a copy of phm's registry editor)
4) Install the new MS marketplace app, then update the facebook appliction and then install office 2010 (would be an idea to use wifi for this).
5) Install chainfire's 3D driver and configure (set the fastest settings)
6) Install netripper's LCS. Disable autoscalling, enable 998mhz clock and set to change at startup. This is not overclocking the phone just forcing it to run at the fastest defualt clock even when it is not under heavy load
7) Install hspl, hspl2 or hspl1024 (which ever is applicable)
8) Install radio version 2.10.50.19_2 to improve wifi and battery life
9) Turn of your phone, pull the SD card, stick it in a card reader and back it up. Then format it into fat32 with 16KB or 32KB allocation unit size. Copy all the data back and put it in your phone
Oh one last thing. Find a backup util that will take a backup of the registry, text messages, contacts etc and run it. I use PHM to back up my registry and Pimbackup to do everything else

i totally do not know what all that stuff is LOL i dont know ho o edit registery..i tried to understand but its pretty hard >_> i dont use facebook nor word so dont need those rly

Right, if you are a smart guy you'll already know that google is your best friend in forum land and if you want to learn you have to want to do things for yourself. So i'm not going to baby you but instead leave you to it unless you really are stuck. I've posted quite alot of information in those links on various things. Most of them are sticky threads.
I had a string of nokia's before i got my first XDA orbit (HTC Artemis) and tbh i found it alot like using my pc and that's how i treat all the WM devices that i've had. It's not really a phone more a PDA with a phone module. Thinking of your HD2 like this may help you

thx imma read the stuff
already found the driver thing and put it too 8ms or something so thats done, i flashed my phone(got the msg ''we hacked it '') and ill instal that ''radio'' later when i have everything on my phone on my pc so i wont lose it all =) ill go and download that netstripper and nhm things and see what they do thx

if you flash the radio with customruu there is a version that will not wipe your phone when it's complete

but i dont know what versions of radios etc to get lol im still checking out on how to do this reg stuff...lol
i installed that hspl thingy a long time ago(well..3days or so) but never installed a ''radio'' so if i flash something...does this change the rom too? like if i have lets say the standard everything HTC phone has of my provider and i flash it..will this change anything to the updates etc of the rom or is flashing simply put ''cracking the key to be able to mod everything'' ?
offtopic : does any1 know if there is a mediaplayer for the htc that supports .VOB? i downloaded the pacific but its all vob files..and croeplayer i think doesnt work for vob
edit 2: ok installed the cpu thing overlcoked it to the 1st green one and the edit reg thing i think is not needed because i already have bsb and cht and i read that most of the regedit is IN bsb yay! im starting to understand now haha only the radio is remaining but i think i will pass on that one

If you flash the radio using customruu it will flash just the radio rom. I did post the best radio version so far a little earlier (there are two newer versions but they seem to suck the battery and by all acounts the wifi signal is worse). I find 2.10.50.19 is the best, as do many others.
If you flash the latest stock from your provider it may or may not include an updated radio. One thing it probably will do is update the boot loader with a locked one. So you will probably need to reinstall hspl. You need hspl to install custom radio and WM roms

hmm ok..well i have the stock rom i think..but i have yet to hard reset it all together, so i still have hspl and rom version : 1.66.404.1 (76641) NLD
thats what my phone says so i guess i have a old ro
radio version : 2.06.51.07 i guess i have a old one..ill download the rom you linked and instal that..hope it will not delete my phone stuff...
downloading from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669042
when i open that the program says all information on my phone will be lost
....:S argg my head hurts >_> school+sport+this is not working lol

this is where you need to get customruu from. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575524&highlight=customruu+task+32 the only thing that has changed in it is the command that is run at the end of the flash process. it's otherwise exactly the same as the "normal" version. Therefore you get all the warnings that it's going to wipe your phone.
Also please edit your last post and sort out that image. it's a bit of a mess.

LOL my phone just crashed and had to hard reset
sometimes i hate wm so much lol

me too. WM is crap!

indeed...errors keep comming up everywherree ffs

again..wow...im rly regretting this item wtf..it randomly resetted TWICE and the HTC screen stays on for about a min wwttfff

FCK FCK FCVK FCKKK MIXROCRAP AND THEIR CRAPPY WM WTFF
i just fcking installed coreplayer and i had to softreset..did that and BOOM phones dead wont start up .get the battary out put it in...it asks me to re-instal everything WTF

M3PH said:
Personally i would do the following:
1) Get the latest stock rom for your provider from htc.
2) flash it.
3) Hit the tips and tweaks thread and the performance tweaks thread.
3a) Install all applicable tweaks (note: there are some that must not be applied to 1.66 and above roms. You'll also need a copy of phm's registry editor)
4) Install the new MS marketplace app, then update the facebook appliction and then install office 2010 (would be an idea to use wifi for this).
5) Install chainfire's 3D driver and configure (set the fastest settings)
6) Install netripper's LCS. Disable autoscalling, enable 998mhz clock and set to change at startup. This is not overclocking the phone just forcing it to run at the fastest defualt clock even when it is not under heavy load
7) Install hspl, hspl2 or hspl1024 (which ever is applicable)
8) Install radio version 2.10.50.19_2 to improve wifi and battery life
9) Turn of your phone, pull the SD card, stick it in a card reader and back it up. Then format it into fat32 with 16KB or 32KB allocation unit size. Copy all the data back and put it in your phone
Oh one last thing. Find a backup util that will take a backup of the registry, text messages, contacts etc and run it. I use PHM to back up my registry and Pimbackup to do everything else

thanks dude..i installed the radio version you said and now i cannot open or instal anything -.-

It was a recommendation not an instruction. I'm not responsible in anyway for any damage a particular piece of software may have done to your device but i am surprised by this. The radio rom should have no impact on your ability to install or run programs so i'm guessing you did something wrong but if the radio is the cuase you can obtain an older version radio and flash that instead.

sorry im a bit annoyed not want to make you responsible i know..just i have been trying to get my hd2 to work for 3days now and it KEEPS just randomly re-installing/crashing :/

I used osKitchen Zero v1.33.2 and dumped the 3.14 OEM ROM myself so I got exactly what I wanted to start with.​
I've created a Bunch of Packages myself, again, to get what I wanted. A few of the packages I've only modified to get them to work the way I want. The Folder Icon's are my work.​
I tried to keep it similar to OEM, but changed a few things to make it mine.​
I am ill, so I will not always be available to answer questions, but I will do my best. I do this to keep my mind on other things while I deal with my illness, be patient with me if you can. I am doing this in my spare time, so don't expect miracles. ​
Before Flashing, PLEASE backup your Data, and make sure you have Hard SPL 3 on your Phone.
Use This Tool from 'doloop' to complete a Task 29 on your phone. This will Format the ROM Space and clear any previous ROM code from your phone so you get a Clean Flash and less chance of errors on the new ROM. Simply connect your phone to your PC with the USB. Unzip the attachment and run the Exe file inside (Win 7 & Vista, Right Click>Run as Administrator). When the Flashing reaches 95%, PRESS and HOLD the Volume Down button until it reboots and enters bootloader mode. Now you are ready to flash this ROM.
I will post the Self Extracting Kitchen, and an AutoFlash file.
What is AutoFlash you ask? I've taken the RUU file, added the Flashing Program, and Packaged it all up into an Auto Executing Auto Flashing Program, and, it's a smaller download than the RUU alone. Pretty cool huh? Yes, others have already done this, but I'm going to make it a standard practice from now on.
"AutoFlash (tm), Making Flashing Socially Acceptable, One Package at a Time!"
Run the AutoFlash file, or Flash using the Standard Flashing Program included in the Kitchen.
ROM Description:
Latest 3.14 OEM ROM 6.5 21913 with Start Menu at TOP and Manilla Version 2018

For the moment, yes. This one was really hard for me to get right. I don't know why. Probably just me. I dumped the new 3.14 release directly and went from there. I kept all the original OEM, SYS, XIP, Packages, etc and modified some things to be the way I wanted them. I've only been running it for a couple days, but so far, no problems that I see.
I may attempt a com5 in the future if I can get it to work correctly.
Uploads should be up in about 5 mins.
For the moment, they do Not include ACR until I receive permission to cook it in. Everything else will be the same.

what is ACR? the rom is nice

Thank you!
ACR is Automatic Call Recording. It asks after each call if you would like the call saved to your phone. The files are very small, and can be listened to on your phone or Computer. More info can be found HERE.
You can install ACR on your own by visiting that link and downloading the CAB file. The one I would like to cook into the ROM I've already adjusted for the HD2 and set it to save the file to My Documents so they will be Synced to your Computer when using ActiveSync or WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center). They are saved as Notes.
But, please be aware that recording calls without the other parties permission may be illegal where you live. Check your local laws. If you tell the other party, then you are good in most places. If you cannot use it legally, then just disable it.

UPDATES
Updates on First Post:
Now, More Android Friendly, at least using m-deejay's Android build Found Here. Tested and working fine. NO RoboVoice. Might be working with others, but only tested m-deejay's Builds. For a working Android Build that I know works for me, use the ROM WITH Radio included.
Also, added ACR (Automatic Call Recording) and some more games.
Minor Tweaks, New Boot Animation and Shutdown Animation
Kitchen is now Available!

Yes, that's probably your best bet. I don't know of a CAB that can delete programs cooked into the ROM, I may be wrong though.
I have debated cooking a ROM without all those, so people could install JUST what they wanted. Also, it makes it easier to install updated cabs when they come out. Opera, Google, etc...
If there was enough request for it, I would be happy to oblige.

and thanks to you guys for pointing me in the right direction..

Ok, here is the Final Release version of T-Mobile ROM v3.14 with all the junk removed. I've also removed Google, Yahoo, etc..., things you might want to install as cabs so you can update as they become updated. It also includes the latest Radio 2.14.50.14. This was updated from the Beta Release of 3.14. Other updates include Messaging and Run CC. I'm sure there are more updated items, but I have not looked into it yet. I haven't added anything, just removed.

wow bro very great...
now i just need to know how to do this porperly...
very n00b-ish when it comes to this stuff....
i assume thjis is going to wipe out everything on the phone and s.c. correct?
so its best to just go ahead and format/hard reset before i try this?
also like i dont get all this stuff about "if radio is compatable" and etc...
how would i know if it is or isnt, etc?
my phone is a fairly new hd2, so i dont know what the hell im supposed to find out before i do this...
under settings i have :

From what I can see, it appears you have the T-Mobile USA HD2, is that correct? If so, you should be compatible. If not, please don't flash this ROM until you further verify it is ok to do. Notice, your radio has .50 in it, which is a compatible Radio to flash. NEVER flash a .51 Radio as it will ruin your phone so it can not be recovered. Example: Your radio is 2.10.50.26 or X.XX.50.XX You can flash other radios that are in the .50 configuration. Example: 2.15.50.14 Notice, the .50 in the same position? X.XX.50.XX
Now, if you are comfortable proceeding, please read the following thread first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
In that thread, you will notice that you will need to flash HardSPL before flashing any custom ROMs. If you follow those directions carefully, you should be good to go.
PS: Yes, this will wipe everything on your Phone's Internal Memory. Your SD Card will remain in tact. But it's a good idea to backup everything just in case. For your contacts, appts, email, sms, etc, you can use PIM Backup. I've attached it below. Run it and back up everything, then after flashing a Custom ROM, you can run it again to restore your data. It does NOT backup the entire phone, only data. I cook PIM Backup into my custom ROMs, but not this stripped ROM, so keep a copy handy on your SD Card for future use. Unzip the file and copy the exe file to your SD Card and run it directly from there.
Good luck, and feel free to ask questions if you get stumped.

Nice Rom
I was messing around with the rom and the kitchen and i removed some packages and now i have dead links in the quicklinks. how do i edit the rom to put new working links.

I know there's an easier way to do it, and I'd love to hear an answer from someone who knows how to do it. I've been doing it the hard way and editing the following files before cooking:
mxipupdate_oemoperators_102.provxml -
mxipupdate_oemoperators_103.provxml - mxipupdate_RemoteDesktopMobile.provxml - mxipupdate_zzRemoveTSKmgr_1.provxml
I also add my own files in my package "SuperSportzzzzz Base Start Menu and Launcher"
I'd like to know if there's a way to add a package with these files modified that will remove links. I can add links just fine, but I'm not sure how to remove. I think it's done with provxml files and the 'Delete' command, but I have not figured out how yet.
To be sure I've got everything done correctly, I use the Search Command inside the Kitchen to look for each reference to the lnk file I want to Move/Change. See example of Marketplace.lnk

[FAQ] Q&A: How? Where? what? Ideas? [New Users?]

Okay; I have decide to make a new thread fore new users who have mostly the same question; and hope this thread will helps you out about current questions.​
Info: Blue text are links to the specific thread/download/information.​Q; Witch Windows Mobile version do I have?

Go to your setting tab > Info about your device > Software Info > You see Rom - version:​Q; How to install themes (cab version)?
How we do it;
Cab file are installer programs. This works to make registry edits, install new applications and install new themes. Do NOT extract a .cab file!
- Download the cab file; copied it to your Storage Card (on the place you will).
- Navigate with your "File Explorer" (that came with your phone) to the place where you placed the cab file.
- Press on the cab file you will install it.
- Most of the time you will see a new window popup with the question where to install. (Advice all themes must be install on internal memory, not on SD)
- Follow the installation procedure, and follow it by a soft reset.​Q; How to Uninstall applications?
Navigate to Setting Tab > Application > Remove Application > select the one you will remove and click on remove.​Q; I can not Uninstall ?
When I tray to uninstall some applications; and follow previous explication about how to uninstall, I get the error "can not remove"
One simply remedy; reinstall the cab! "maybe strange fore you, but reinstall a application who was install will first remove previous version.​Q; How to install themes (Zip version)?
How we do it;
- First you need to un-compress the .zip file.
- Then simply copy the graphics/other files into the /windows folder.​Q; Where to find themes?
Theme Thread
If you will examples of possibilities.
Read this
And take a look on this thread about what peoples have realizes (can give you some ideas) ​Q; How to modifying Icons?
How we do it;
First of all there are 3part applications who will help you to make your life easier.
- JWMD Icon Changer
- (CSMI) v1.4b
Personally I prefer the first one; but that's my personal opinion.
Imported: Read carefully the thread before using, It will help you out.​Q; Some Icons don't changes after restart?
If some Icons are still the same after Restart?
01. Prefer clearing HTC Sense's icon cache.
Go to your Device's \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher Folder and delete all the *.bmg files inside. These are icon caches that will be recreated upon next boot.
03. Delete All Old Icons from the Quick Links Menu in Manila.
04. Restart
If by clearing HTC Sense's icon cache, the Icons still doesn't change?
01. If you try to use a custom icon which have the same filename of one of the images found in \Windows then Manila will always load that original instead of your customized one!
In order to easily fix the problem, just rename your icon .png (Not that one in \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher).
02. Delete All Old Icons from the Quick Links Menu in Manila.
03. Restart
04. And change it again in Icon Changer (To the renamed .png file).
P.S.: This bug affects ONLY manila, therefore in the start menu everything will look fine BUT in the Home Screen you will always have the original icon!
05. Restart
If the Icon don't shows up in Icon Changer, so you cant change it from there?
01. Go to \Windows\Start Menu.
02. Duplicate (Copy & Paste) your .lnk (that don't shows up in IC).
03. Open again Icon Changer. The Icon now should be viewable.
04. Change the Icon.
05. Go again to \Windows\Start Menu.
06. Delete your Original .lnk and rename Your New .lnk to what you whant.
07. Restart​Q; How do I get more shortcuts on my home screen?
Important; there are different possibilities; but fore all of them counts one universal rule:
Read attentive the instructions/information on there threads, before installation, and follow the instructions!​
<<< 16 shortcut for Manila 2.5 >>> Link
<<< 25 shortcuts on Home and more >>> Link
<<< Max Manila 2.5 >>> Link
<<< Co0kie's Home Tab >>> Link
Personally I prefer CHT; But this is personal use/opinion; and I tray to be neutral. Each application is useful, and behind each of them are very good creators​.​Q; I have the sound icon missing in my taskbar?
01. Start your RegEditor
02. Remove two Keys in HKLM/Software/HTC/VolumeOverlay: [LoadIconFromResDLL] and [SoundIconLink]
03. Restart your device​Q; How to access at more applications on MarketPlace?
Make use of MarketPlace RegionSwitch (it allows you to have access to much more (PS take a look on the US market))​

My Install Strategy;
· Run Microsoft My Phone Sync
· Turn off antivirus software in Desktop PC (Stop Avast Anti-Virus)
· Remove SIM and microSDHC Storage Card
· RUN XDA Developers “HD2 Task 29” as an AdministratorTask 29 is not mandatory that's true, but it's a safe way to ensure that you don't have any old files remaining after flashing a new rom.
There is no harm in doing it and the easy way is to use the tool I provided in this post:
Connect your device and flash as you do with an ordinary rom, when completed (100%) press volume down and keep I pressed until the device has restarted showing the coloured boot screen, then you flash the Rom.
​· Install your cooked Rom as an AdministratorNOTE 6: Please, Hard-Reset after flash process has completed.​· Add SIM and microSDHC Storage Card
· Set Time and DATENOTE 7: Please, Restart the phone, after first manila screen.​· Run Desktop pc FULL ActiveSync, select setup device.
​Q; Where to find "Task 29"?Download: Here
More information about "Task 29": Here​Q; I downloaded and extracted the zip file from a cooked Rom, and noticed there was no ruu file attached. What to do?You can download the SSPL_RUU, here. place the SSPL_RUU file into the map where you unzipped your cooked Rom and lounge to start.​Q;What is Bootloader?Bootloader mode is handy for checking the HD2's version of Hard SPL as well as the installed ROM and Radio versions,and also for ROM or Radio flashing to the HD2. I sometimes use the Bootloader method to flash ROMs as it saves connecting to Activesync/WMDC because the PC recognises the HD2 as connected via USB. It is also useful for flashing a ROM or Radio version if the battery charge is less than 50%, as it ignores the 50% charge warning that is normally displayed when flashing if the HD2 is low on charge. Never use this method if you have less than a 30% charge as you will be in deep trouble if the HD2 runs out of power while flashing a ROM or Radio version!​Q;How to access to Bootloader?To place the HD2 into Bootloader mode, remove the HD2's back cover hold down the volume down key, now press in the red reset button under the back cover to the bottom left of the SIM, release the soft reset button but continue to hold the volume down key in until you are presented with the tri colour bootloader screen. To exit Soft Reset the device.​Q;How to remove HSPL?Uninstallation:
Remove HSPL by flashing an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.

Hey kurt,
one of the questions I see most on the boards is about sense crashing and displaying "unable to launch htc sense" after booting......
I usually refer people to this thread.....
Although there could be many reasons why this occurs I think that thread offers a lot of good advice about fixing that issue without having to hard reset..........

This question was be treated in the first post:
01. Go to your Device's \Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher Folder and delete all the *.bmg files inside. These are icon caches that will be recreated upon next boot.
02. Delete All Old Icons from the Quick Links Menu in Manila.
03. Restart

About Active Sync; I don't have a Idea about that. As fare as I know I didn't saw someone who mention this problem before. But I will tray to investigate about this issue!
But in the meanwhile; open your task manager, probably you will see Active Sync be active, deactivate it!
About Battery Draining; there are multiple reasons about this behavior:
- Radio version?
- Rom?
- Hspl version; in case of wrong combination with Radio and Rom
- More obviously
- Problems on the temporary music catch
- a particular music file who caused problems
- problems on temporary file in commend!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Fore this there is a simple test; remove your SD fore about (let say 3H) and take a look on the battery's behavior. If the problem is solved without using the SD, do a SD format!
-...
like you can sea the answer to one problem can have multiple reasons, without much of information not easy to give you the right answer.

thx for the answer here is my os spec
rom:1.66.479.2 wwe
radio 2.07.51.22_2

Based on Rom and Radio, I only see the direct problem on SD; do the test like mention before, if it's normal, do a format of your SD! (is your SD a class 4th?)
