Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

This ROM run on Verizon? I would like to give it a good try ;)

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Just flashed and I'm really liking this one!! Good stuff!!

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

I'm gonna give this rom a ride!

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Im sorry but i dont know the answer to that question. the rom was built with JD's Kitchen ( the post to his thread is in the first post ) i kinda browsed through his thread but didnt see anyone asking about verizon ...

i can say this it is for CDMA phones, but i can not say it will work with Verizon..sorry ..

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

This is a nice ROM. I had been using JD's latest ROM and really liked it. It's nice to have the Rhodium Manila too. Thanks!

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Dont be sorry , I am giving Juicys new 6 a run and next I will try your Phantom ROM if it works I'll post back and if it doesnt work I will post back. No Problem.

Thanks!


EDIT , OK this bricked my phone , I want my money back!!!

(LOL JK) I'll check back in a few.....

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

I'm pretty pleased by it so far!

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Yep , its a no go on Verizon :( looks nice though......

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Nice ROM, Pretty cool to mess around with the 6.5 default today screen, but Rhodium Manila is way better, funny how to the hardware makers have to make wm6.5 usable.

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

this ROM looks very interesting...is the background easily changeable?....not a big fan of purple....

also, i posted this in JDs thread as well, but since this is a 6.5 crowd too, i'll ask here as well.
i've been away from the scene for a while up until recently and right around the time i took a break from flashing, the first WM 6.5 ROMs were coming out and, from what i read at the time, they were pretty slow and buggy (no camera iirc)...so, haven't tried a WM 6.5 ROM yet....anyone who has tried a recent 21xxx 6.1 ROM AND one of the 6.5 ROMs care to share their experience with 6.5 compared to 6.1? it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

hey grandmasterb what happens does it hang on the bootscreen?

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Yes it hangs on the HTC boot screen.

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

i think i might know how to fix it! but idk for sure
in the rom you need to add a .dll but i cant remember which file!
ill look it up and let you know
rgildoss will have to add it though

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

In order for the vzw touch pro to boot you need to have this in the /windows folder: ATCmdInt_.dll

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Sure would like to know if this works ;) ;)

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

This is actually not true... I not using this file in my new rom and verizon boot fine...

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

do you have any clue why it doesnt boot then? since you fixed it in 8.5

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

This could be due to various reasons.. I would have to look over the hole kitchen..
the ATCmdInt_.dll file is usally located in the verizon carrier oem...

I used an alternate driver for my rom.. But that was my kitchen..
I never used JD's kitchen before.. Maybe JD knows the answer..!
Since its his arrangement..

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Loving this ROM. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence or not, but using tnyynt SD Tuner seemed to really improve performance. Since I said that you'll probably reply that those changes were already in the ROM. :) Anyway, it runs very smoothly and haven't found any issues yet. I've only been using it for about an hour so I can't really attest to stability, but I had been reading about problems with 6.5 and Rhodium, but I haven't seen any yet. GPS finds 9 Sats in a few seconds from cold while inside, Active sync seems to be working well. I installed several programs - Google Maps, TT, etc and they all work great. Thanks for the work on this and I'll report any issues I run into. Might not be going back after this one! :)

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Actually I have one suggestion. I was using Silence's ROM before this one and one thing I love about it is how well the zooming works in Opera in his ROM's. If you could incorporate that in this ROM would be cool. Silence - what you think? :)

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

seems to work well so far. It does have the opera bug where it will check that somethings downloaded and it actually didnt download. other than that ooking good. I have to comend you, jd andthe couple others who are pioneers on 6.5 and tp2. that has to be the most challenging.

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Try flashing back to stock and then back to this ROM. Seems like sometimes 6.5 is picky when flashing from custom ROMs. I am using IndaGroove's 6.5 ROM for the Diamond. Some have noted that when flashing to a new build they encounter boot problems. They flashed back to stock and flashed back to same ROM and things seem to work better. Best of luck!

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Whatever he wants to do is cool with me.. I listed which version I was using in my changelog.. I made no adjustments to that particular one..:toothy7:

I also have one where there is adjustments done.. [-X

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

I used both Silence 6 and 8.5. Both worked well. Actually now that I've used this one a little more the zoom is actually working alright, maybe not quite as well as in 6. I know that 8.5 worked well but I didn't use it as much as I did 6, I'm assuming 8.5 is the one you didn't mess with.

I did just notice one strange issue in Opera - several times I click on a link and either doesn't work or takes me to some other site. One in particular should started a cab download but several times it took me to different web page. On about the 3rd time went to the correct place and started downloading.

Thanks again for the time and effort.

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

yes you can change the background all you want. just remember to change the windows one also ....the 21198 build of wm6.5 is very stable compared to earlier releases.. everything works now and the speed has improved as well...
i wont go back to wm6.1

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

I've tried several different 6.5 builds and they have all hung on boot for me. Not every time I boot, just once in a while. I am going to try loading the stock verizon rom and then loading 6.5 as suggested here. I will let you al lknow if it makes a difference. I would love to figure out what is making this thing hang.

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

First off thanks for the rom. works great! I have it running now with TFDetacher and I switch between the Zune like interface and TF3D 2 with a push of a soft button..

One minor problem though. The menu enhancements stopped working. I soft resetted and boom they are gone. I tried reinstalling the cab for the rhodium menu enhancement but no luck. Anyone else have this issue and if so any way to get it back?

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

hmm...
hasn't happened to me but i don't use the TFDetacher...i have noticed that the rhodium tf3d is very temperamental, i have installed other things in my quest of looking at new apps and tricks and for the most part they all break the tf3d in someway ..can you provide a link to TFDeatacher ? ill try to cook into the rom and see if it works better...

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)

You have to do a custom setting and change manila.exe to manil2.exe in the EXE portion. Leave the rest be and it works.

A little off topic. That Phantom logo just cracks me up. I remember having a meeting with the folks at E3 as one of my appointments to report on many moons ago and got a T-shirt out of it.

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

Nice ROM!, Next version, you may want to include UC!

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

working on that now ...hehe

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

OK,

I went back to the stock verizon rom. Then did a hard reset to be sure. Then I loaded your rom and did another hard reset. It seems to work better, but it still hangs on boot on occasion. It seems to happen more if I completely power off for a few seconds. But then I soft reset and it will boot again.

I also installed the Verizon carrier cab to see if that made a difference. It's hard to tell, but it might of made it slightly worse. The fact that it only happens makes it hard to track down. Any body have any ideas? Thanks

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

does wifi, camera, exchange sync work?

Re: PhantomROM WM6.5 TouchPro Rhodium (21198)
 

I just flashed to this today, and so far I'm loving it! I've never seen WM 6.5 run this fast!
