WM 6.1 and Touch Specific Questions

[Mustang46L]

First off I need to say thank you to everyone that has worked to make the various new roms. I am currently running nueROM-Vbuild-104 because I liked that it was basic and worked well. I found most of what I am needing including: Touch Keyboard, Sprint Email, OZ Messenger, Sprint TV, X-Button 2.0... but I am missing a few things.

First off is the Touch Photo Album. I found something similar on here, but it didn't quite work the same. I am looking for the original photo album that you could launch when you went to your camera on the Touch.

Second is the Java program that came installed so that I can have the Sprint Music Store, Opera Mini, and Sim City. I know this won't be high on anyones list, but I wouldn't mind getting my free music collection back.

Next is when I am in PIE, is there a way to map the new "Zoom Out" function to a hard button. It is convenient, but i don't want to go running into the menus every time I want to use it.

Last is that I found the registry edit to change the soft buttons on the Today screen, but I can't seem to remember how to get it to launch text messaging. I know that the messaging application is tmail.exe but I forget the parameters to run afterwards. If someone can help me with this I promise I will write it down this time

Other than that I'm loving 6.1. I can finally use bluetooth ActiveSync which is perfect for my currently unactivated Touch. Free internet all over the house without needing WiFi or EV-DO PocketCM is acceptable, but I do miss the built in contacts application that the Touch came with. I am also very glad to see that we FINALLY have OneNote Mobile. I've been waiting for this since OneNote first came on the scene.

So once again, thanks everyone for everything you've already done and what you'll do in the future!

For these you might want to check out this ROM. It's the Stock Touch ROM merged with WM 6.1. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...300#post174300

No idea.

Last is that I found the registry edit to change the soft buttons on the Today screen, but I can't seem to remember how to get it to launch text messaging. I know that the messaging application is tmail.exe but I forget the parameters to run afterwards. If someone can help me with this I promise I will write it down this time

Parameter would be -service "SMS"

Yeah I tried that ROM, but there was too much other stuff there for me. I like to run a pretty simplistic PPC with some extras. I don't need all the add-ins which is why I'm going with the basic setup and adding my own stuff.

If you create a SPRITE back-up before you flash the ROM with the new 6.1, could you just restore 6.0 by doing a restore if you don't like 6.1 or will you just be stuck with 6.1 ? TIA

Did anyone notice that MS Live Search is no longer on the today screen after the 6.1 update? Does anybody know how to add it to the today screen? thanks.
