New To WinMo: Need assistance - XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps

I'm currently waiting for my x1 to come and I just want to know about the R3A Rom. What is it about and What is a Rom? I would also want to know about manila 1 and 2. If possible post any recommended software for beginners, tips and tricks and so on just to give me a perspective on WinMo 6.1. And does the X1 support SanDisk 16Gig MicroSDHC?

r3 rom = the 3rd fireware upgrade for the x1, improves, fixes and adds stuff (not out yet)
Manila = is touchflo. there is the new 3d version that is out in roms and hopefully a cab soon that has landscape and other new stuff. (the one u want to have)
16gb = it can take up to 32gb micro sd cards

THanks so what u mean is dat the new 3d version is out but it dosent support landscape yet?

Ok what about the new panel manager, would you recommend it, what are the advantages and disadvantages of it

new panel mamager is a lot better and faster, only con i have fould is that it keeps running in the background.
it will be included (as it is part of) the new r3 fireware, when it gets released

ok can maybe change from the first rom to 3 skipping 2 or do I have to put it in. When is the 3 likely to come out and what will happen to xtrak(in terms of coming with th R3A)

My suggestion would be to try R2 rom to see why all these people get crazy about R3. Xperia with r1 rom was a big disappointment to me. Xperia with r2 rom is really the smartphone I paid all this money for... Big improvement.

Meschle's o2 Premier Plus rom coming soon - RELEASED

Meschle.........
After reading yor comments on the ongoing ROM poll, elsewhere on the Forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325872
I have to ask what is in store in your new ROM 02 Premier Plus?? Is there a time scale for its' release yet?
I have tried all the ROMS that come and go on these boards and am still very pleased with Artemis Touch 1.0 WWE - Full, I think it is the most stable ROM so far...
Can you spill the beans on your plans...
It will be released over the weekend - final testing now.
Includes updated audiomanager (same skin) but now plays when in standby mode.
Most of the apps are included from artemis touch full including hbutton setup, notem,1 calc lite, tpcmp, xnview pcm keyboard....
The ability to add cube by cab if required (blue design)
Still has 51mb total storage memory and 27mb free program memory after soft reset.
It runs as well as standard version
thx
i am waitting
What a guy, that's what you call a prompt reply.
Looking forward to giving it a spin.

It will be ROM without the cube in default ? And cube will be only separately installable option (cab) ?
From my point of view, it is very good idea !! Cube is nice toy, it is good to amaze friends, but I guess that most of people dont use it. I dont need any cube when I have HTC home ...
I'm looking forward to your new ROM
Hi Meschle
I eagerly await this new rom as your original is my keeper at the moment. A question, you say you are including the CM Keyboard but is the HTC Phonepad staying? For me this is far better for texting and was something I had been wanting scince getting this phone but just couldnt find an app anywhere until I tried your rom (my first), CMKeyboard is very good but still needs some care when using on the move. If not remaining perhaps you can let me know where to get.
Be good to see the new rom, just dont give up life to meet your publics demands
Thanks for your work so far

Heres the htc touch phone pad.
Also i would like to see this rom without touchflo as i read some people including me can't get it to work properly.
other than that this first version rocks big style. i prefered the mms/sms all in one also (i know some dont agree with me but hey, personal prefs)
Last few days - being bed ridden - had all the opportunity to install, re-install and re-re-reinstall all the roms circulating...I finally settled on the O2 Premium ROM - not because - I am not a fan of Tom's - His ROM was fantastic - the Artemis too was superb ! but my preferences lies in the fact that - if I dont use something - no point having on the phone.
My 2 cents on new ROM;s that come up -
The Lite version along with the reduced apps - should also exclude the Cube ! - I have been using the Toms 4.0 for ages and realized that I had next to never used the Cube. The HTC Home page suffices more than ever on that is required instantly.
Secondly - Apps like Acrobat Reader LE - should also be left out - to be installed based on individual preferences - it is 1.38MB in size and can be run from the storage card - so I see no reason to have it on the main memory !
All said and done - I think the ROM's provided by Mark and Tom are great and I applaud their efforts.
The Orbit/Artemis/Dopod - would'nt be the same without their efforts and the support of all their collegues.
Cheers
Dev
Thanks Meshle, your Rom is my favorite. Keep on.

Man, I've been playing around with this ROM now and it's my new favourite !!! Really finger-friendly and intelligent !!! Congrats, mate !!!!!
Meshle
You're O2 ROM is my favorite and it's staying on my phone. I would like the audio manager to play in sleep mode, but I just spent 2 days configuring my phone to my liking. Is there a registry edit to make the audio player play in suspend mode or is this somthing that requires the new ROM? If not, I'll live with WMP for now. Excellent ROM man!

Hi Meschle
Nice one
I downloaded and flashed last night so will play today.
But on 1st impressions it looks just as cool as original but now has all the apps from the Touch, exactly what it said on the tin!
And it has the HTC Phonepad, I happy
I shall post tonight on how she goes.
Thank you
Is the bug about the batterystatus traylaunch fixed in this new version ?
Anyway, keep the excellent work, thank you so much for your quality releases !

Should i add bioscroll to Artemis Vanilla 2.0? (Coming soon!)

I can change touch.dll and add a few files to get bioscroll (not the cube) on the new vanilla rom. It would not slow the rom down or take any free memory away.
What you guys think?
Add it
I can't think of a single reason why not, it is something I love.
Hi, I actually bought an XDA Orbit after seeing the excellent rom work that has been done here and I would definitely like to have that feature. Thanks
Yes,
All i want is a clean up to date rom, with GPS Photo and (bio)scrolling support. The HTC Home Plugin is very handy, but i can miss it.
I am sure if you make a rom which looks as the HTC original, WITH scrolling and GPS Photo support, lots of people would use it.
O yea, and please, dont make a black version... There are other colours, i like the Blue O2 premium you made, and used it quite a time.
little offtopic. Also, if there is a easy way (ala customizer) to put scrolling or other things in it would be great (even with a hard reset or something). Unfortunately its in the ROM (as ive been told) and therefore not possible(?).

what's exactly bioscroll?
Is BioScroll the thing which made my Artemis with your TouchFlo 2.0 ROM randomly scrolling up and down?
I say yes.
Maybe you could give an option to switch it on or off like Tom does in his ROM?
Well this is what i've done - disabled by default in true vaniila style - there is a smal cab in windows that enables it.
This stops having extra apps or control panels messing up the feel of vanilla
Total storage still 58.76mb and FAST as ever.

Also add the disconnect button when connected to the net via gprs
I never liked it much. My opinion is to remove it an give an option to install it later for everyone who likes it. Just as you said.
Good work man.

I agree to that also.
YES, keep it in 2.0.
With bioscroll, I can scroll with finger at anywhere with scrollbar. don't have to use stylus to scroll.
But I don't use cube often. maybe others do also.
Having Bioscroll alone without cube should make this ROM more popular.
Waiting for it. Thanks a lot.
Please leave bio scroll in - i loves it

DON`t install it ...everything installable on a later basis should be left out, is what i plea for! ....leave it customizable
"installable"?
is it possible to install scroll function? sorry but i didnt hear about such possibility...
about all other programms - i agree as well that there's nothing should be. to have a chance to install a newest version every time.
any idea when?
thanks

Diffrence Between 1.37 & 1.93 ROMS ??

hi might be stupid question but i wanna know what is the diffrence between 1.37 xxx & 1.93 xxx Roms ? i have 1.37.456.2 roms comes with my device is 1.93 much better than that ? or can i able to install that on my device .. Thanks in Adv .
i found the 1.93.xxx to be unbelivably fast compared to the 1.37, their are afiew transitions missing when browsing though touchflow 3d but it runs so much better i doubt you'll mind.
plus 1.93 has a quad band radio included i would highly reccomend
(you should be able to install this on your device as is, to play on safe side i would probably get hard spl first just incase, i was flashing 1.93 and computer went into standby, Hard SPL saved my phone)
1.98.831.1 WWE is the one i'm using
>>Diffrence Between 1.37 & 1.93 ROMS
It seems to be related to WM6.1 version
Also in new version the touchflo 3D does not have the fly in and fly out animation when you switch between taps.
Probably that is why it became faster.
I really miss the fly-in, fly-out transition animations.. I wonder why HTC couldn't find a way to keep them whilst having the wonderful speed of 1.93.xxx.x

I feel the same too. At least HTC could make it a optional setting that people could make their choice.

First, its not a problem, it was disabled by HTC. Second the animation everyone is talking about is NOT in this video. Instead of the slider to move left and right, using your finger to motion, THAT animation is disabled.
add Weather location
Add a new weather location is much easier in 1.93.x
first post
I had 1.93xxx ROM - yeah it´s really faster but I think it´s only due the missing animations. I went back to 1.37xxx ´cause I think that to optimalize system doesn´t mean to remove animations n effects.

[APP/game] XTRAKT, super smooth 3d action racer.

Hey guys,
Just reposting this as a start of the themes and apps for X1 .
Now who was it that insisted that Xperia lacked a 3D chip? Thanks to itje for basing his latest Custom ROM on the leaked R3AA ROM and seperately providing CABs to some of the goodies available in the new ROM version, you can get your hands on ‘Xtrakt’ - a new 3D game by Sony Ericsson – right now! The game has really great graphics and runs quite smoothly on the device. Though it warns not to run any other applications when playing the game, it ran just fine with SPB Screenshot running besides it.
Best controlled with a stylus, you control the main character of the game on a future motorcycle destroying monsters. Doesn’t sound too appealing, i know, but the game is actually good! Better than many games that i’ve played on my iPhone and opens the door to better gaming on Windows Mobile. (True that an accelerometer would have been quite handy in handling the bike, but stylus/finger control of the bike sits well with the game).
To download head on here. You do not need to flash to the custom ROM to play this game. However, there definitely might be better graphics drivers in the R3AA ROM than the R2 or R1 ROMs.

One visit to the toilet and I already made it to level 4! I was really surprised with how good it looks and runs!!! (the game, that is.... ;-)
^^ LOL!
Great game
This is the kind of stuff I xpect from Sony Ericsson

No need to double post it! (I know you probally just hit the submit reply button 2x on accident ).
Stock rom should run just as good as a custom one. It uses hardware acceleration with OpenGL drivers that are already on the phone so.
same problem here, says installation unsuccessful straight away. bah.
Works great here, I'm using Generic_SE R2A rom.

Install to phone, not to storage card
i did........
doesn't even let me get as far as to ask. i've tried installing it *from* both storage card and main memory, but it instantly says unsuccessful.
might be due to VF hackery.
ah well, i'll just wait til it actually get released.
Wow.. It's awesome.. Hard to find WVGA game.
Not working here either - no real hacking done (vodafone rom though)
just says the install is unsuccessful
I hae the same problem ....INstall unseccessful
Why is this? Anybody found out yet?
thats cause it's supposed to work perfectly.
Im using the Vodafone Dutch R2A ROM. Love the game and it runs super smooth
Working now. I think perhaps that I didn't have enough room in my memory so it failed. Excellent graphics and game play, 10 levels! Very impressive to show people, certainly throws a punch against the iPhone!

[REQUEST] New HTC ALBUM C-A-B..??

I wonder if anyone can help and provide a cab for the new htc album (with iphone like picture switching-plus its waaaay faster than the default old one..)
I want to use it with some roms that dont include it!! (old manila..!!)
Many many people that still on stock roms would also find this very helpful!!
Sorry if i am wrong for opening a new thread here..!
Thanks in advance..
anyone..??

impatient, aren't we?
True..
But i flash a new rom every two days..!!! its gone out of control..i had my hd doing everything right but not being what it is..a phone!! (tons of problems answering calls with s2u2 caller id over new rodium dialer-which sucks-same s*** with resco contact manager which freezes every now and then in the newer builds..etc etc!!)
So i said i'll stick a while with a stock rom or 6.5..(6.5 after trying is out of the question..even with the 202 build..)
I found davideuck v7 and thought ok..give it a shot! And its amazing ..! AND RELIABLE!.. but with the "default" album..! which sucked from day 1 .. When you try the new one though you JUST CANT go back! So i wanted to know if its possible to have it VIA CAB!! Reflashing is not always a good thing to do cause for me its like 5 hours or so..(all apps from scrath etc..)
SO PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP...!! stock rom people would also love this!!
Here you go...
I hope that I am not breaking any forum rules by posting this. It was included to older dutty roms. I think it is not the latest version but you have this real time slide feature already.
Have fun!
Thank you very much! Will try and report back!
too bad! didnt work.. i am currently using davideucks v7..
i didnt do something special (such as disable tf3d first or something..)
installed ok, soft reset. i can see pics but when i am trying to scroll..it freezes
Same happens on my device. Using Davideuck 6.5 V6.
I think the fact that its Duttys own cab for his roms means its most likely not going to work on any other roms but his!
After a lot of search i found many builds of the 3xx version of the album!!!BUT ALL PORTED FOR DIAMOND .. (vga) No one has the original wvga one ???
(if it can be found as cab could also be used in davideucks 6.5 v6.. dave said he will cook a build with it in the rom but a cab would be nicer for all!)
If anyone can tell me what this "new album" is I could make a cab. Right now I'm using a self-cooked ROM with Album version 3_0_19131221_0, and seriously think about recooking the ROM to include the stock Blackstone one.
What's so revolutionary about it?

Its fast..!! The new album is the version you are using, with the iphone style and smootheness changing between pictures.. Its from rhodium as far as i know..
Whether it's fast or slow depends on a lot of things apparently, it's very slow in this ROM and was fast in my previous one.
It works the same way as the old one in terms of transition between pictures anyway. And on the downside it doesn't rotate pictures.

So we are not talking about the same album! You would have seen so much difference that you could never go back to an older version! even with the limitation in zoom levels!

I think we are talking about the same Album. It was very fast in my previous ROM.
I can easily go back to anything though. I just don't care about viewing pictures too much. And even less so about whether it's like the Jesus Phone or not.
Can someone then port it from duttys 2.6 for example, so it can be usable with every rom..?? or at least of the same build?
New CAB sucks! I want the original! Where can I get the original! I love the circle to zoom that would zoom an image of a photo that was almost too small to see on the phone so close and in crystal clarity! This new album SUCKS! 1 level of zoom and it's damn grainy! Way grainy! Not crystal clear at all.
+1 with Molitar, I prefer the old one. On Blackstone we do not have hardware zoombar.

I found an $8 software called Kai's Deinstaller.. it actually worked after the update from the 1D. I ran it and back to the older album
Any progress on this? I could do with an up-to-date album on the rom I use...
