[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] 2 die 4:
Hi there again. I tried everything from your suggestions and the battery life actually got worse, yesterday my battery got to 10% after only 10h, off of a full charge.

Usage was minimal = maybe 2 min. of internet, just 2 calls and a total of 5min. and 5 sms-s!!!!!

I uninstalled that switching app for 2g and 3g because it seamed to drain the battery more than help it!

Any other suggestions?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fivecheebs:
Ive had some battery issues with this version too. The issues get no better after a cycle. I have no excess processes runing at startup (lockscreen and galarm (an old version)).

I hardly use my phone for phonecalls and texts but it has got push email running. 3g is disabled.

I do watch alot of video on my commute. I need to plug my phone in at my office to keep the battery topped up (have been doing this for months). I guess I watch 1.5 to 2 hours video during my journey home. I used to be left with ~70% with penultimate version of the rom, but with this version I have ~40% remaining.

The only thing I havent tried yet, is replacing the rilphone with the one linked several replies ago. I will try that now, and post back later.

Ypsmav requested in the first post to not post mirror for this rom. Probably is resolving the problem in person, looking for another mirror.

Here just flashed the Edge version couple of day's ago.

I love the tools, the features and the looks, great great job!

And here also the before mentioned problem from other users. It drains the battery a lot faster then my previous rom.

I haven't configured anything yet, facebook, twitter, e-mail etc. So that couldn't be eating battery all the time. But I'll try it out a couple of weeks, it looks promising :)

helo,

I had the same problems with battery, my blackstone runs only for 1,5 day...

Last week I have changed rom to blackstonhenge and today is the 3rd day and I still have 55% battery - normal using, wifi is enabled all the time (it turns off automatically when phone is in the sleep mode), 3G disabled.

So there is a problem with EDGE rom (which I think is great) energy managment. Our batteries are ok :)

i have a problem with last rom, no manila :(

I have formated 2x at begin and now soft reset 1 time and manila run, but slow at begin, but now is good ...

I just want to say that my phone is more fast with 4,2 rom :), i will see batery life.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] oxygen2k:
i like this rom a lot. there is only one "bug" i found so far:

when i go to settings -> sounds and notifications,

the option to flash the led light on top of the device for several events is greyed out. i always love to use that option for new text messages or new missed calls.

or am i doing something wrong? i am using the latest version 4.0.2
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] disaster2009:
Hi. i can say that last rom its great, i have used very days and i dont need any reset with stylus and sms is now a litlle more fast ,:D very stable with me ... batery is the same 1 day, i have buy in ebay a new batery to test , im waiting ;)

how to creat shortcut application from .exe ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] chokolademan:
I'm using 4.02 now for a week. And I still love the setup, the tools and the look of it.

It's got a couple of hundred of contacts, an e-mail setup, twitter and facebook. And it runs at great speed with those things enabled.

So everything is cool, only (offcourse there comes an only..)

Only 2 things bother me compared to my previous rom,

-When typing with the keyboard looks like the letters don't match with the touch of the screen. Just typing a word takes a lot of backspace and typing it again aah, not fun when just sending a short sms or whatever.

-Batterylife really short. I've got 2 phones (other one touch pro) so I can compare it a bit. They used to have similar battery life, say 3, 4 day's on one charge, couple of calls a day, 2 - 3 text messages and checking the e-mail over the day.

Now it stays on a charge for one day. And after the night the battery's dead.

The setup here is 3g, no wifi, gps not enabled, internet only activated when facebooking/mailing and stuff.

I do see a difference when I check the e-mail in the morning and the internet connection stays enabled. Then the phone won't make it through the day.

If I didn't use the internet connection at all during the day, the phone looks like it can last 2, 3 times longer.

And with the previous rom, it didn't make a real difference having the i-net on or off for the battery life.

Is version 3.5 still online? I'd love to try that one with more battery life.

And aside from the 2 things, great job with this rom!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sbt57980:
Sir,

why in setting -- connection -- connection setup not work properly.

on first use its run , when we try to download database updates it still stand on 0% and nothing work.

again if we try to run connection setup it start and stop in a half of second just like a blink.

Secondly, some time after running any old software the font size and menu style auto change.

3rd, the detailed information of contact under Phone dialed screen -- all contact -- contact of any person not matched with the information of contact under main menu (start) -- Phone option -- contact

Why ?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hedo013:
Megaupload is down. Who can upload or give alternative link to Premium or SWIFT EDGE 3.6 ROMs?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ypsmav:
Hi all,

A few answeres to your questions. I hope it helps.

Hi, you can try the following: Start menu-> Settings->System->Screen -> Text size and select the largest size.

If you refer to the size of the keyboard, you may try different keyboards in the forum (swype, fingerkeyboard2, etc).

Hi, try the following reg changes:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D660-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000007
"Duration"=dword:00000005
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65B-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000007
"Duration"=dword:00000005

Open the File Explorer in tools folder, copy the application in the folder you have put it and then go to \windows\star menu\programs\ and press menu->Edit->paste shortcut.

Hi,

Answering your questions:

- Keyboard: that is not normal behavior, and I don't have that problem on my device. You can try to align the screen. Also suggest to open the note application and check with the stylus that your screen is not damaged (resistive screens could get damage)

- Battery life: there is plenty of discussion on the thread about this point. Normal battery life to be expected on the premium is between 1 to 2 days. On previous post you will find some instructions on how to inform about battery life for further development. Alternative is to use the swift Edge ROM which has a much longer battery life.

- Version 3.5: is lost on Megaupload, but battery life is similar. Only the Swift Edge offers much better battery life.

Hi, your post is quite difficult to understand, but I'll try to guess and answer :)

-Connection setup: I've just tried on my device (over WIFI oviously) and database update without problem. if you have problems, you can try to install the cab is on the 3rd post with an updated database from latest HD2 rom.

- Old software: I have no idea what you refer to. can you be more specific or include any screenshot?

- Contacts: this is weird. how have you introduced your contacts? by activesync or restored? do you use more than one method to restore your contacts?

Hi, Which rom version are you?

- SMS sound: It works fine on my device (Premium 4.0.2). have you tried to change the ringtone?

- Translating: the ROM is in english and I have removed many files from other languages. Unzip the attached file and copy the manila files into /windows folder.

Regards

I can now, with great certainty claim that my battery is not to be blamed for lasting only 10-12h with this rom in almost idle use!

I have been using a different rom for the last 3 days and my battery is still alive at 11% after 63h of my normal everyday use!

This rom of yours is a great eye candy, but it is sucking my battery dry to damn quick and that is a deal breaker for me!

I'll be closely watching for the future build and if it gets good reps I'll gladly come back to it, until then, y ca!

Thanks for the fun.

Hi all,

The pack included on post is only to add manila language.

I will test with old battery ... Manila pack is to put all files in \ windows, just copy and paste to windows ? Is that ? Thanks ;)[/QUOTE]

Hi Disaster,

I can confirm that I get more than 1 day battery life with the premium ROM and my old battery which is more than 3 years old.

Pls check posts #467, #480

If nothing works, suggest to switch to Swift Edge Rom, which is ligther and is proven to have large battery life.

Regarding the language pack, yes, just copy in /windows folder and change the manila reg key for your language.

Hi All,

I need a tester who is having battery problems with the premium EDGE rom.

I'm cooking some changes to solve the problem. if you are interested send me a private message.

In order to have the disc drive option you need to have a working microSD inserted. I have no problems with this point.

Hi Disaster,

Disabling weather animation will save battery.

Most consuming is the radio, specially on 3G in areas with less coverage.

have you tried the indications on posts #467 and #480?

Do you want to be a beta tester?

Can you please advise in which situation the time changes? changes the hour (+1/-1 hour) or it lost time completely?

The rom is by default getting time from operator. to disable you need to go to windows settings, no manila. Open the dialer, go to option, look in the different options and tabs for get network time and disable it.

I haven't been able to find a limit for that.

What source(feed) you have that brings you such a large quantity? normally RSS feeds will limit themselves to 20 or 40.

Best regards

Hi Ypsmav,

I am testing your Blackstone_Premium_EDGE_V4.0.2 because of the battery issue.

Turn off Microsoft direct push

Turn off send/recieve in active sync schedule

Disabled GPS auto download by active sync

Turn 3G off and switch to GSM

Turn off Beam mode

remove lockdevice.lnk in startup

Some things I noticed that might help:

1: Apps don't close but stay open minimized - I Changed Utask Settings: Close key from minimize to close.

2: I unchecked HTC Location Services in Manila Location AGPS.

3: Option Time Synchronization is listed twice in Phone Settings: Turn off.

4: Encryption cannot be turned off

5: Datacontroller Gives a Nullreference Exeption error.

6: Found strange key in registry which I deleted:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps\BatteryIconLevels = (dword) 65]

"BatteryIconLevels"=dword:00000066
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] disaster2009:
