Known Issue

Locations is not turned on. (I am still working on this if anyone knows how please let me know.)

Long Press End Key is now located in Settings-Buttons-Endkey, make sure you check it first, otherwise it is set to lock your phone. And then second issue is It will not work to disconnect data, but it will work for airplane mode.

Startup sound may go off after your phone is started, I am working on that has well. I will post a fix if I can find something.



Directions

1. Flash to official Alltel Rom

2. Follow these steps, to allow for custom rom on your Vogue

3. Once your device is unlock, Download the file and then Run the file. It should flash your phone over.

4. After the flash has finished, and everything is loaded, let the custamaztion run, this will allow your alltel phone to connect to the internet, and all ow your MMS and everything else to work. Your phone should now restart itself.

5. After it loads up you will need to do the following. Dial *228 and press option 3.

6. Enjoy your new alltel 6.1 ROM

okay gps could you be more specific, is it doing any one thing? or just in general messed up?

Picture mail should be working fine. from your messaging go into "pic/video configuration" and from there go into servers tab. and you should see something like Allel MMSC, if you do not see that then your servers are messed up. and you will need to do some editing, I can maybe find a cab file that will fix all of that for you. Let me know if you have Alltel MMSC in your servers tab tho.

I really like Opera Mini. it seems much smoother and loads pages faster. but the multiple tabs on this one is pretty nice. been playing with this all day and its great you do really good work. After doing the reg edits I noticed a big improvment in speed also. you got anymore tricks for speeding things up? thanks again!

Opera 9.5 is hard coded into the manilla, so you will not be able to change it from that internet window. And I am glad to hear that those registry edits helped speed everything up. I will have those included in the update later on today. So it should be a little more speed. Also glad to know that your GPS is working good for you. But for any more speed tricks, right now I am unsure. I saw one around for changing your DNS servers to OPENDNS servers, but i am not sold on how much that helped. But who knows. for now i am off to bed, gotta be up in 4 hours.

Hey Con or Wordie, whats the deal with MMS wanting to work when it wants to, lol, having some problems, I can send pics/videos, but far as recieving them its generally hit or miss. Usually after a soft reset everything works fine, but that is really annyoing because people send me stuff and ask "hey did you get that pic I sent" and I'm like "what pic, resend" so is this just a general problem with 6.1 mobile or this rom, any help will greatly be apperciated!

w0rdie 10-03-2008 09:51 AM

Re: UPDATED 9-22-08 Manilla 2D Alltel 6.1
 
That's an Alltel thing... and actually it's an MMS thing in general (ask any TMobile Customer). To my knowledge it has nothing to do with the software/rom you're running.

There may be some slight variance in how smartphone/PPC devices handle MMS ping and retrieval than a standard handset but it's not a side effect of Con's rom.

to do a hard reset go to to settings>system tab>clear storage, it will tell you to enter 1234 then click yes. You will still be at 6.1 you will just loose all your personal stuff. so move anything you dont wanna lose to sd card and back up all contacts,msgs,emails ect,ect....

Con,

I found an app that you (and many others) may find helpful. It is called OS Remind Me. When you miss a call you only find about it when you look at your Home screen. This app will play a file every "x" to remind you. Kind of funny that something like this wasn't included in the OS from MS/ Every phone I have ever had iver the past 19 years has a missed call reminder built in.

Also, anyone know of a good (and free) app that I can manage incoming calls via their caller ID?

Thanks

The HTC devices (Touch included) come with a notificaion LED in the speaker that lets you know that you've got a message/notification.

A tool like this seems better left as a cab.

hey con, hows the new update doing? I was wondering if theres any form of rar extractor in here anywhere or should i just install pocketRAR? did you ever figure out how to add bookmarks under the internet icon, beside or under the youtube player? I must say unless you tell me theres gonna be a huge difference in the update I may hang onto this one for a while, its working fast and nearly perfect. I have noticed a glitch in fileexp, not a big deal to me cause I always use GSfinder, but when you click and hold on an item, then copy, then click up top to pick where to send it to, it works but part of the little drop down box stays up. The only way to get rid of it is to exit FileEep completly. just thought you might wanna know

Yeah sorry I thought PocketRAR was in there, I was missing a link, I got it working now tho. Update is going good. Should be up soon, Flashing one of my final test builds now. And thank you for letting me know of that issue with file explorer. I will be sure to check into this.

I'm on the SkyFire mobile browser beta, and it recognized it wasn't the default browser and offered to take over as such...
Not sure, but I'd think if the app didn't offer, there'd be a registry entry for this.

I am not sure there is any registry, I think that is coded into the program.

the file you need to over write is called "hh_fw_background.png" it is in your windows folder. Where do you want to stream videos from? Opera Mobile should stream videos with flash 3.1 built into there. But I guess it depends on where you want to stream videos from.

This Will only work on the Touch aka Vogue, If you try to flash your mogal using this, you will more then likely mess up your mogal, I would not recommend doing it.

yeah i know what you mean, Alltel is kind of forgot around here. It is kind of sad, but what can you do. I was thinking about buying a mogul to build some roms, but now with the touch pro coming out, i decided against that.

Hard to say for sure, I know that the one thing i have hard from reading over at XDA is that it it works better if you can cook it into a ROM. So without that I am not sure, maybe sometime next week i can try and cook up a rom for the mogal. I will have to see what I have going on.

Hey there Con, been a while since I’ve been here. Again I thank you for your hard work and dedication. I'm sure you've satisfied everyone who has Alltel out there (Guinness book of record for multi orgasm?) Well now I have a favor to ask, I had a problem with my music sometimes freezing the phone up when I try to play anything or even run it from programs. Another thing that started happening is, any time I go to check my email the touchflo reloads its self. The phone freezes for about 5 seconds and then the touchflo resets its self. I have a 4gig SD card. I also tried reflashing my phone to fix that music problem, but the email problem kicked in again.

Update is posted for everyone to enjoy, Sorry Kardar, I didnt get your cities in there, I can get you a file to patch it tho.

The email issue is a known issue with manilla, it seems to happen when the email has an attachment it is trying to load, when that happens it resets manilla, So i am sorry about that.

I had the same issue trying to overwrite the hh_fw_background.png file which is the background for manilla 2d. Said it was read-only. I had to use a program called Total Commander and it allowed me to change the read-only status and overwrite the file. This is the only way I've found to get around the read-only status.

Hey Con - quick question for ya - I know you have been extremely busy and everything - I am currently running your 'Conflipper_Manilla' release and haven't really had any issues with it. What is the main changes between that one and the 10-3-08 release?

Only main issue I've seen is that I can't connect to my laptop using a bluetooth connection anymore with activesync.

Edit: Also, when I try to manually open audio manager, it starts to scan then shuts down

w0rdie 10-03-2008 05:47 PM

Re: UPDATED 10-3-08 Manilla 2D Alltel 6.1
 
Got everything up and running again. Performance seems to be noticably better than the last build- I'm not sure things are as fast as they were in pre M2D roms but they're easily better than stock and not bad at all considering how nice everything else is.

I am quite pleased. If nothing changes this will be the last ROM I load on my Touch.

Also should get a chance to test the phone when roaming tomorrow, I'll let you know how that goes.

Thanks again for all your work on this project Con.
