Yes, I did see the link, -- thanks. That gave me the inspiration to do this. Shoaco's titanium weather cab broke a few thinks for me, and his 4 column start menu was funky IMO, so I made it to my liking.

Okay, here's my attempt at 21193. This is very basic, no frills. This was built for the XV6800\Titan on Verizon. Carrier Cabs are also linked below to use. I forgot to add the dialer in when I cooked it, so I attached the one that is supposed to be in this build. Feedback is welcome.

Special notes:

Flash the RUU, and let the phone boot to the main splash screen and wait for the beep. Then Hard Reset. And wait............it take a long time to boot on the first boot. If it hasn't loaded after a few minutes, Soft Reset. It should load at this point. You will see the Start Menu button come up, click the start menu and once it goes to the start menu, just click the X and everything is good to go. I am not sure why this is, but it is. After all that is done and out of the way, everything works quite well and rather quick. Soft Resets load as normal and so on. It's just the initial boot that takes a long time, but be patient and you should get to enjoy 21193 on your Titan. Be sure you have Radio: 3.42.50.

And remember, as always, you flash at your own risk, and I am not responsible for anything you do to your device. Enjoy!

Ok, that's interesting, neat ! But, the problem is if you get a new start menu, and browse down, You'll see a line that says "Show..." if you click that, it will flash the screen and go right back to the home page.

If you install your rom as it is now, before installing your Vouge dialer, it would show the same screen but, with the grey/black colors, I'd say leave it there and give the option to install your new one. I didn't find a way to roll back, so I will re-flash to get it back (well, wait for your next build). I am really wondering if there was a new syle default WM 6.5 dialer and what it looked like.

Cool! this one of those little things, I played with this on all builds so far, could never get them to show off the card even tho they are setup correctly \Storage Card\My Documents\My Pictures

The speed issue gets better after a few Soft Resets. Like I said, I have no idea why this is, it just..is. And my phone and my buddy's 6800 both took a different number of resets before the speed was there. I will fix the camera issue and post another link later tonight.

I will also post one without the Start Menu add-on (Like I said, it was not built for WM6.5 but I liked it and so have others). In the build with just the stock Start Menu, I will leave out the Vouge dialer. I am not sure what will happen though, because I do not recall seeing any files for a dialer in the Chinese SYS. When I post this alternative build, it will be after testing it on my phone to make sure a dialer is even there. Otherwise, I will put the dialer in that was used in 21159 (anyone know which dialer that actually was?).

Thanks for the feedback. I'll get back on these changes after getting my son to bed.

Cool ! Thanks for the update and so far, I like ! BTW Multi quoting is a PIA....

You can roll back to this dialer with advanced configuration on the Diamond. I dunno if there's a Mogul version of AC or not..

great work Tplane .. you have come a long way .. I can go on vacation now

Mr. FREE!!!! Where the H E double hockey sticks have you been hiding???? Left me high and dry LOL.

Below are two RUU's. 21189 and 21193. Both are for the Titan once again, and cooked for Verizon. I did not select a dialer this time. I flashed them both, they both boot. There is a plain dialer there, looks out of place on WM 6.5, but that is what the SYS has in it. I just notice the Comm manager does not work. It worked earlier on a different test, but now it is saying that it does not have a trusted Certificate. I am posting these as is for now, if you simply "Can't wait" for me to update this post with the same ROMs that include a different Comm Manager that works...then just install one via CAB. Bee sure to read through my little procedural post on the previous page...I don't think the Titan's like having this much forced down their throats.

The Partiotic boot screens are not in these either. I felt it personally appropriate to do that on my first ROM because of the whole Navy Vet bit...but it's out of my system now.

Camera's work in both. And Advanced Config is in both....stay out of it if you don't know what you're doing!!!

Carrier CABs are in my previous post. Enjoy!

No camera? Works great though...thanks

[Tplane37]

Added Comm Manager. The only reason I am leaving the other links up at this point is for comparison and testing purposes. For the Camera, I had to select the stock Titan Camera in BuildOS, and during the build, I had to "Overwrite" the existing files. So, yes there is a camera. No it may very well be different than what 21193 may have been intended to have. If someone who is more experienced than I am can look into the camera files and the Comm Manager files that are in <Titan_Beta_1_USO_Edition_RUU> (The firste one I posted), and see if you can get them to work, please do. I ask that if you get the origonal files to work, that you either post them here in the open of PM me to I can change the modules out in my SYS.

I did get a peak at the Comm Manager, and it appears to be similar to what the Samsung Saga comes with stock. I was a completely new look, Fit in very well with WM 6.5, and was clean. I didn't have a chance to play around with it much, but it did seem rather limited. I would deffinately like to see someone customize the 21193 Comm Manager to ad more functions. so check it out in my first post if you're up to it. I can post the files if requested. I am off to bed. I will post 21189 Beta 1.1 with a Comm Manager selection when I get up in the morning.

What have you tried already in an attempt to get your SMS working? Have you gone into your Registry at all? If so, what edits have you done? And which version of Arcsoft do you have?

Furthermore, are you flat out unable to send/receive any messages at all? Or is it just the MMS? We'll need a little more information to narrow things down.

OK, I found these previous posts and I'm too facing the same problem.

BTW; kyrumo, Have you solved this problem?

Please help.......

Thanks and regards
