why hard reset after flash?

Just curious. everyone says to hard reset after flashing your rom. i have never done this.. at least i dont think i have!! and i have flashed a lot of dif roms..

If you turn on the phone and it is asking you to start the screen calibration.. doesnt that mean that it was JUST hard reset?! well it asks you to do this every time you boot up a newly flashed phone.. so is there a real need to HARD RESET after you flash?!

if so, when should you hard reset? should i let the new flashed rom boot up, calibrate the screen, go through the wiz and get to the today screen... because next it usually does the carrier config and sets up for at&t (for me)... then it will ask you to reboot for the changes to take effect.... after i reboot should i hard reset then?! or can i just HARD RESET as soon as i see the first screen calibration after flashing?

Ok... so i just flashed this new ultimate II beta rom.. i love pda corner and i have been with this rom since v16.. A few quick I.M.O.

-I like skyfire better the opera.. maybe we should just post the cab for opera? are there more people like me?

-I like that the facebook stuff is back in the rom.

-I prefer SPB Mobile Shell over the Minilla 2d, 3d, touchflow, etc. it's just more finger friendly and takes up less space and ram on the phone.. so i always appreciate a lite version without M2D. It's the first thing i do, turn off TouchFlo on the today screen.

-can you put the office mobile folder into the programs folder instead of the START MENU?

-pocket uno??? :P

-what the HELL happened to HTC Audio Manager?????? way better then media player.

a while ago i complained that you can't save camera photos to the storage card with the time and date prefix for the file name.... yyeeeaaaa i'm an idiot.. you can change this reg settings from the advanced config tool.

REG HACK FOR tnty camera

HKLM\software\htc\camera\General

- change EnableDCIM from 1 to 0.

hope none of this gets me BURNED.. keep up the great work! :)

What I always do is go through the calibration, then perform a hard reset immediately after its done customizing. From what I know it helps to remove any rogue files you have floating around both from during and before the flashing of the new rom. It also helps prevent errors that can crop up. I know I recommend it, and most everyone else on here does too :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
To save time flash, the phone does it's cleaning then when you get tap to set up device hard-reset, otherwise you spend twice the time for the same outcome. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] lufc:
Also if you do flash a lot of roms it is a good idea to flash in the stock rom after a couple of flashes
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
I dont really see the point in flashing a stock rom every now and then unless you actually have a problem with a new rom. I have never once flashed a stock rom in 1 1/2 years of pretty constant flashing and I have only had 2 bad flashes that I can remember and a reflash soon fixed that. Follow the flashing rules and hard reset when it gets to the "tap here" screen after a flash and everything should be fine.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] djquick:
I second mskip's comment. I've never flashed a stock rom either. Even when I had an Excalibur and I was flashing Ricky's roms like the flash junkie that I am:p, I never flashed a stock rom. If it's done right and you don't have problems after you flash, why bother flashing to a stock rom.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ottoman96:
I third that... I can't see any point in doing that, almost counterproductive when you think about it............
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] brutel1:
I've gotten into the habit of always flashing a stock rom. I had a Tilt that kept certain things from Rom to Rom. No matter how many hard resets or reflashes. Flashed the stock and then the new and it seemed to take care of it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ottoman96:
And you were removing your memory card and sim card when you flashed it?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] brutel1:
I do now, but the issue seemed to be certain settings/files just wouldn't quit. Now, no issues.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] dirtydizzle:
Is it or is it not a good idea to "clear storage" prior to flashing a new ROM? I do follow the quoted steps but I also clear storage as well..

need some professional advise

I want to flash your latest Rom, but I have a very strange problem. I am using athinsOs at the moment. I can't do a hard reset, it shows me the screen where I confirm it, but nothing changes after it has loaded up again. When I try to flash, the same problem. Please somebody help me!

I have searched, but I didn't find the solution!

There is an option: Go to Settings > System > Clear Storage. That do the trick.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] matumartin14:
The Rom doesn't contain this program
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Cat Eye:
Press and hold the left and right softkeys above the messages and email key and press your stylus into the rest hole on the bottom of the phone for a couple seconds.

Look here.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] matumartin14:
thanks for helping, but I managed to do it already. I pressed enter not the green button, I was used to Htc Elf hard reset
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] fone_fanatic:
I change the sliding sound right away to my shotgun reload sound so it doesn't bother me that much

BUT that default ringtone!! OMG what the hell is that? every time it goes off i cringe like i do when i hear nails on a chalk board! And that reaction isn't just by me, but also by everyone around me!

Now i'm not insulting abusalza or anyone else, just a personal preference. I'm loving the roms and i actually should be studying for an exam right now but i just flashed beta II and need to set it up :D

THanks AbuSalza and everyone else.

email issues PDACorner Ultimat-X.betaII

I installed this rom and hard reset. Set up activesync to exchange and got my emails and so forth but can not open any of them.

I also use flexmail for gmail and when I open one of these emails, all I get is a white screen.

Is there a fix I am not aware of? I searched the thread and found a number of email issues, but none seemed to match up what I am seeing.

Thank you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] lufc:
Thanks for that the Wifey hates me having a sound when i open me phone so some great ones to annoy her thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] fone_fanatic:
i noticed that the boot up time is much longer in ultimate beta I and II compared to v20 and v21 (which was really fast booting up).

just an observation.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] smokestack76:
Well it seems there are not many bugs at all in beta 2.....maybe time for it to be released :D This place is sloooww again. But i guess that is a good thing. :rolleyes:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] denco7:
Boy I hate being at work when you guys ( over there ) are done work and sitting home for the evening surfing and discussing. I remember reading somewhere that flashing to the stock rom was a hold over habit from the older phones, back when they had extended roms. I believe they said when flashing to a new rom, flashing back to the OEM was the only way to clean the extended rom, before flashing to the new rom. That nowadays it is an unnecessary step. ( True ? ). I came here from Blackberrys so I wouldn't know

I always just remove the sim/SD cards and flash, at the tap screen to set up device, I hard reset. Then let the phone go through customizations and set up, after all is done, I turn the phone off, insert Sim/SD cards and

start reloadind programs and settings. In a year, I have never had a bad flash ( except when I bricked my first Tilt, but that was totally different. )

Even when people were complaining about the booting loop in Josh's first roms, mine worked flawlessly.

Get rid of the piano or xylophone, I like the glass and fantasy it is kind of classical. Transformers would be good if we all taught pre-school :p

I also like the default ring. Everone at work has some sort of little tune or song , and they all blend in. When someone gets a call everyone grabs for their phones. When I get a call everyone surely knows that it is mine.

Bootup time is a lot longer, does the disable sim detect thing work ? Thank goodness there are virtually no problems with this rom, so soft reseting and waiting for boot is not an issue.

Glad to be back from from SJ's Rhodium rom, nice rom, but not my style, skipped beta I , beta II seems great. Back to the side okay button calling up vol control, YAY !. I am in and out of so many places where my phone has to be muted, and then turned up again, this is one of my favorite features. I think I'm all caught up now.

is 1.70.19.09 still the best radio to use with Beta II?

It seems the battery is draining a little faster than v20 & v21
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] thedrizzle:
i think i'm gonna wait until the next 6.5 build...i havent seen a 6.1 build that can beat v19 for overall speed and stability...plus i cant stand opera. its slower than IE...and i run skyfire, seems to be the best full-featured browser for me, and for quickie internet lookup type stuff i use opera mini. i dunno maybe i'll flash this build when its out of beta, but its gonna take some convincing to get me off of v19...:D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] smokestack76:
I was a die hard V19 user and i like beta2 alot better than 19. Seems faster to me. I never liked opera but this is the best version ive ever used. Loads faster than IE in V19. And i used skyfire and this opera is faster than that was. Easy to browse with. I havent had any issues with it closing or freezing like some others reported. I really have not found any issues with this beta rom. I dont use Email on mine so cant confirm or deny those issues. But for me it seems really nice. I have had it on my device as soon as it came out and have not flashed back to V19 and probally wont.......and i didnt think i would ever stray from it :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] asfoor:
I flashed it on my secondary Tilt... Not so sure yet about the speed... I am almost done with the customization and programs re-install ( pain in the ASS).

I like the updated programs icons.

I will test and will post my results. So far I have one great conclusion; Most good roms will eventually behave similar and will look the same. It is not any long the ROM you flash per say, as much as it is the act of flashing the ROM that gets our ether going. Every ROM I flash is ending up looking like the one it replaces.

Now, as speed and stability are paramount, what more can you do to enhance a TILT's OS? I might retire this flashing habit and relax for a while as I have settled on a good ROM ( I think ) that best suites my needs . We'll see.

cab files

is there any way of getting cab files for the speedtest app,clean ram app and

HTCAlbum/camera software from ultimateX betaII. love to have these apps on v18. keep up the good work:D

Did you do a search for them before you posted !!!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] biglad:
Made the move from V21 to Beta2 this evening. So far so good. Only thing not working straight away is weather update (never happened before with Abu's other roms I must confess), this might be down to my poor network coverage this evening. I will check this again in the morning. No problems setting up Internet E-mail, active sync etc. Really curious to see what way the BT will behave when I pair it with my car in the morning.

Will report on BT results later tomorrow for anybody interested.:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] thedrizzle:
well, if thats the case, i might give it a go just to try it out...i was just waiting for a hardcore v19 believer to convince me...:D

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] fone_fanatic:
Abusalza, is there a chance you could change the notification icon for text messages?

Currently it is the same as the icon for email so when the icon appears on the title bar you dont know if you've recieved a new text or email till you tap it. I like to know if its a txt or email at quick glance.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] vgomez916:

Ever since I can remember with these ROMs, every night at 11:59:50PM, the screen will turn on like I hit the power button.

Anyone else having this or is it just my possessed phone? :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] PhantomYoda:
Yeah I had the same thing happen, and found out it was something updating. I don't remember off hand what it was, but I think it was either the weather, the GPS stuff or something else. Or it could have been the Window Update running too.

It also happened when ever the phone would lose connection to the network and reset itself. ie, 3g to g, g to e, etc...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] itsmebryan:
I'm having a problem setting up my hotmail account. Every time I go to mail it says I have no account Am I doing something wrong. I follow all the step and still nothing. Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] fone_fanatic:
OMG thats what it is!! It's been happening to me to but i thought it was a network failing in delivering a call or text msg.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] fone_fanatic:
i just found something out... if you press "ok" on the keyboard it lowers the volume like your rolling down the scroll wheel one click. But it does it only once, you have to tap out of volume control and press of to get it to go down again... wierd.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] smokestack76:
I have the same issue with the volume. I was thinking it was just me lol. I have also noticed in rss hub it doesnt display any pictures. Just the blank X where the pic should be. Maybe a setting to display pics i missed somewhere?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] PhantomYoda:
This is actually a feature, but it should be the side Ok button, next to the scroll wheel, not the keyboard ok button.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
I have had this problem (or whatever you want to call it) with various Roms for over 5 months. I reported it in November I think in the HyperDragon thread but we couldnt figure out what it is. As far as I know nothing updates at midnight EVERY night and it doesnt try to connect to the internet so I dont think its updating anything. Always at exactly the same time every night, like you said 11:59:50pm.

Maybe I will try Hard Resetting the phone at 11pm tonight and see if its just the rom or a secondary program thats causing it. If anyone else wants to do some investigation feel free, im sure between us we can figure it out :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] smokestack76:
I know its the key mapping but it shouldnt scroll the volume down. Thats what i thought was strange. I guess it could have something to do with it being tied into the keyboard too. And i guess i need to set my alarm for 11:55 tonight and watch my phone lol. Not sure what could cause that but im always asleep so never noticed it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] PhantomYoda:
Oh so it doesn't just make it switch between vibrate, off, and the currently set volume? It changes the volume? Ok, yeah that's new...

When I had the problem with the phone lighting up at night it was due to something that was set to automatically update. I can't for the life of me remember what it was, but once I disabled the automatic update it stopped coming back to life... could also be a setting in advance config to come back to life when there's a change in signal... kinda like a wake on lan.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
It would be a really huge coincidence if the signal changed at exactly the same time every night :p I guess I will have to tear apart the registry and advanced config to see if theres any kind of update at midnight. Maybe its just waking up to talk to its mates on xda haha. Stupid little thing but it bugs me coz im always at my computer working when it wakes up. :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
Haha yeah you should really wake up just before midnight and see if your phone screen comes on at exactly 11:59:50pm :D

EVERYONE ON XDA WAKE UP AND CHECK YOUR PHONES AT MIDNIGHT!!!

Might be some kind of phone conspiracy and they are planning to take over the world :eek: ok sorry I have a very vivid imagination LMAO.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] lufc:

Just put your icons on me baby and they look very nice, i think i will keep them on thanks, have you got any plans to design some more !!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
I havent really thought about it but I might do another set if I have the time one night. Glad you like the icons :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
ok I have tried every taskbar set that I have and everyone except styles set give me the following taskbar after resetting:

Styles set has everything working apart from the battery indicator which always displays the charging icon. I would post this somewhere else but PDA Corner is the only rom i have never been able to change the taskbar set on. Green battery fix works but it looks wierd with the other colour icons lol. Does anyone know if theres a cab with the default tasbar icons?

I will probably edit this post in about 20 minutes saying i have found it haha :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
Using any ROM mine wakes up @ 11.59 to reset the notification cue for the next day has to do with G-Alarm so not sure why other peeps does but have a look @ notification cue and see if anything set for that time?

mskip attach Green Battery fix so i can have a look as may be able to use it with conjunction of icons to get this tweaked with PE :) "it's ok took it from your share"

What happens if you install the set i tweaked and the green battery fix, will the battery just be white but the icons service icons stay?

Sorry not using Beta so ?'s
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] brutel1:
I use greenbatteryfix, but it would be great if it was colored as the standard PDA battery would be. I don't like the look in white, but the % was more informative.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] lufc:
I use Service icons and this is how my top bar looks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
So which set did you use as you seem tweaked? You also used my modified HTC :) "so can guess you using the set i attached?"
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
I love the GreenBatteryFix because the readout is soo big and easy to see. I would rather go back to the default icons with greenbatteryfix. The other ones I have tried arent easy to read especially in daylight.

Styles I havent tryed your set with the greenbatteryfix but I would assume it would be the same i.e. everything else colour except the battery. I will try both your sets now and see what I get. Update in 5 minutes lol :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
I can modify green battery fix to have the green PDA % if peeps want?

Look forward to response seems as if lufc got it working so wait for response from both of ya :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mskip:
Can you attach the cab for the Service Icons you used please :) I tryed a similar set in *THIS* thread but they all just knocked out my TaskBar completely :(

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
Would you be ok with the green % one that PDA had originally? I'm just porting but some of the icons are different bit so have to change that too going to be a while but when done will be worth it.
