[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] 640k:
i'm def getting stability issues with this version (VzW). I've had to soft-reset for various reasons and had to hard-reset after I lost my signal and could not recover. Overall some of the behaviour seems slower. TouchFlo is slower to open, applications are slower to open initially.

So far this release has the best set of features, but the worse behaviour.

I am using this Verizon Version and have found it to be the most stable to date.

I have not had to reboot yet and find it very fast. I have tweaked some myself to set itup the way I like, but straight from the flash it has been great.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] 640k:
just to provide some examples...

i have a streaming app (c-aspiro) that locked up the phone, which required me to soft-reset. after soft-resetting, the phone refused to pick up a signal (any signal). several soft-resets and still no signal (even received a warning sound, but no message). eventually hard-reset

garmin was working, then suddenly stopped and said it needed to be reinstalled (some driver missing). reinstalled and seems to be working, but still slow to launch.

lots of applications are strangely slower than usual (read: slower than last version(s))

innobec's sidewindow won't even run. it installs the driver, tries to launch the process and then fails. if you try to launch it again, the phone may freeze but the application never runs.

the last few soft-resets i've done have netted mixed results. sometimes the touchFLO interface takes 30+ seconds to open, but lately, i get message bubbles about other random stuff that i shouldn't be getting before touchFLO even tries to launch.

today the internet connection tried to connect twice and the bluetooth notification bubble popped up after soft-resets. each time, the touchFLO refused to launch until each of those were "done".

after a separate soft-reset today, i lost ev-do and only 1x would connect.

very strange stuff, very random.

I also have to do soft resets often, some people are claiming that this is very stayble, could it be my devices fault? its only 6 months old :(

Couple of Bugs with Sprint 1.10

Not sure if these have been reported yet so I will do so just in case.

Sprint 1.10 ROM

1) Txt Messaging-New Message Count: If I get 3 different txt messages from the same person I have to open it 3 separate times to get it to set to "read". So if I have 3 new txts from my girl and open it up the count will go to 2 then I have to close it and open it again and it will go to 1 and so on...

2) Txt Messaging-Input: Using Full QWERTY and T9 sometimes the first word I type is ignored or just vanishes?

3) Missed Call Notification: If I have a missed call and click on the link right below the clock that states the number of missed calls and brings you to call history it does not clear the missed call icon (Phone with Exclamation) at the top of the home screen. Upon clicking that top icon it will recognize that you have already viewed your missed calls and clear itself before you can dismiss it.

Calendar Tab

Is there any way to add a calendar tab to Manila 2D? Then be able to link that tab to a today plug-in such as SPB Diary. I can live with only seeing 2 calendar appointments but there is no way to see tasks. You have to use the default task program in WM which really sucks. I know that there is a program floating around that lets you switch back to your default today screen. Is it even possible to add a calendar tab to Manila 2D?

No issue here and Im on the latest Sprint ROM as well, I just made a quick 8 second vid of around the room Im in by clicking the camera button, switching over to video, tapping the camera button again and then again to stop the recording, from there I hit the magnifying icon and it began playing in audio manager (like audio files) just fine

and if I browse the device for my documents/my videos and start it from there it plays in the default ROM's player full screen without issue as well

Anyone know if that Amaze GPS app works w/ this rom?? That would be for a VGA screen, lol!!! No go!!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] kilroy1stcav:
I wonder how many people having stability issues are not flashing in the bootloader mode? I know I just skipped this step and when I first flashed this version I had problems with after turning off the screen, I could not get it to come back on, if I sent a text message, it sent multiples, and just random other things. I then say NFSFAN's post and put it into bootloader and then flashed, ran customization and then put back into bootloader and flashed again. Since I have not had a problem that I have found, knock on wood, but I think this is the most stable and fastest ROM to date.

Thank you NFSFAN for all you hard work.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] 2LoWw7:
I know I flashed in Bootloader mode and then Hard Reset after the flash! I have installed another manilla skin not sure if that is cause any stability issues?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
Short answer: NO

Long answer: There may be workarounds

There is an extra tab in M2d called the operator tab. This is for operator's to add custom programs or services to the phone. For example, if Bell sold a phone with M2d such as Iolite, or touch 3G (which they do not), they would use it to add selfserve, music store, GPS Nav etc.

There is a program developed here at XDA that allows you to customize the operator tab. Adding programs, rebuilding the layout (collumns and rows), renaming the tab etc. It is called "M2d operator setting 0.40". This allows it to be used as a second launcher tab, and to customize the layout the same as your launcher tab.

You can also edit the regisrty to allow for a list view (think greatbal's app launcher, or touchLanuch) instead of an icon view. A dev named allevant was using this to make a calendar view to display all of your upcoming appointments.

You can read through the thread on the operator setting here. Allevants efforts are in post 118:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=451623

There was also another effort to make the operator tab into an action tab similiar to the Fuze's action screen. You can read about that here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=472308

I should add that since Bell 1.28 (or 2 ROMs ago for non Bell users) NFSFAN has removed the operator selection from M2DC. After nagging him about it he was kind enough to supply me with the homesettings.xml to add it back in. I personaly use it as a second launcher screen called games.

Hope this was of some help,

Cheers.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
It depends on the skin. There are lots of older skins that do not support the Iolite version of M2D. Even some that do will mess up your home tab calendar view if the .xml settings are not right. The old blue skin updated for Iolite does this.

Before switching themes always use M2D to back up your M2D settings and default theme. I always back up my HTChomesettings.xml as well.

There are lots of newer themes now that work with the Iolite version of M2D. If your ever not sure, just check "do not update slider and xml settings" and go from there.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] suntopper:
Somewhere in the history of NFSFAN's ROMs this is discussed. If you use Opera to download AmazeGPS then the phone is interpreted as a VGA device. I believe if you use PIE (and I know if you download the cab on your PC) it will download a QVGA compatible file. I have it on mine and it works great.

Good luck!:D
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sophos1:
Hi NFSFAN,

I would also be very interested in a USCC version of your Gorgeous (...yeah, I'm sucking up...but you deserve it:D) ROM. Also, I'm not looking for a handout so I am will to donate for a US Cellular version. Thanks for all you have done for all the communities.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] BigBadBuu:
I use second today (that's the prog you reference, i believe) in conjunction with today agenda, to the same effect.

Basically, I set today agenda to be the only program on the second today screen and okay-out to go back. Slide-to-unlock also has settings that show your tasks + appointments as well.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] bennyj71:
Hello guys, sorry to interrupt. My friend downloaded this ROM after I suggest he try it. He was having many problems with his stock Sprint Touch. Anyway, NFSFAN, he loves your ROM. Unfortunately, he doesn't know how to flash back to a call if someone calls you while you're on the phone. I assume your ROM has a slide to answer like dailer. I haven't used a ROM with this setup on my Tilt. He always ask to find out how it is done with this dialer. So I hate to trouble you guys about this, but how do you do it?

I've been reluctant to try manilla. but I just upgraded from 1.18 to 1.30 on Bell. and wow, you've made a lot of improvements NFS! well done!

I'm tempted to give 6.5 a shot, but since I tried myphone and found it to be useless I'm not sure there's much point. I really like the google integration of manilla
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] leadpoizon:
Yup, but this has been a "problem" in the Sprint 1.09 version as well. It's like the codecs for the files are missing. BUT, this was all only the case for me with MJPEG, not other files. I wouldn't even view MJPEGs in the album.

Tell him to press the "Hold" button on the top left. That flashes back and forth between callers.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lotherius:
Not sure if this is related to the new ROM or another problem -- but I was running my own cooked ROM before and didn't have this problem. Activesync keeps running on its own! I have done the "fake exchange" server hack and set it to only manually update, and I have also turned off Time Synchronization... yet the Activesync app continually reruns itself, which is very annoying as I do also use TaskFacade which shows all currently running apps.

Anyone know (yet another) hack besides the fake server & turning off time sync, to prevent Activesync from constantly rerunning itself on the phone? Using Sprint 1.10...

Thanks!

If you have sprint you can use this program (I don't know about other providers) that they give you. For mail push, just install to main drive (Do not install in storage). And set it up.

I moved up to the latest (1.29) Bell rom but have been having some stability problems.

After the initial flash I found that it froze up twice on me during the day and after a regular soft-reset found that everything had been wiped like a hard reset.

It froze up me twice wiping out all the data, and it froze up on me once at the boot up screen and I hard to do a manual hard reset to get it back.

I'm going to try flashing it again and see how it fairs.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] evader69:
I installed 1.29 last night and I couldn't run the phone for half an hour without it freezing, and sometimes on reset it would hard-reset. Yes, I did install using bootloader. I then installed the up-coming 1.30 beta and the phone is *more* stable now. You may just have to wait.

Edit: I spoke too soon, was running great last night, and right after I posted this it froze, and when I reset it hard reset :(
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] the-wrangler:
ya mine was a little buggy too...i flashed from bootloader, did a hard rest and seems much better now...my mistake was flashing from active sync...did you flash from bootloader and hard reset?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] 640k:
you can't tell me nothing is wrong with this build. i tried reloading the ROM again, this time going through the bootloader option. an application (sidewindow) locked up the phone, so i soft-reset it. the phone got stuck on the "booting" process (my splash screen says "checking OS;" before the HTC animation appears), so i removed the battery and waited 10s and turned the phone back on. The phone turned back on as if I did a hard-reset. So all the setup i just went through was lost.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Well I cant tell you nothing is wrong with this build and/or your phone, but for me this ROM is running fine. Slightly high memory usage due to TF2D and Iolite and the screen seems a touch off regardless of how many alignments I do but neither of them are deal breakers, although I do think the feel of Sprint 1.09 was smoother and quicker and more stable.

I flashed via activesynch and and as always hard reset immediately after to reflash the phone as I always do 95% of the time and no issues, but the error you are having Ive only seen when there is a radio issue or an issue with the device being unlocked and something gone squirrely in it and Ive flashed alot of HTC Vogues for Sprint/Bell for people at work and their families phones as well (one guy at work actually has 6 vogues, 1 for each family member LOL and all running custom ROMs) and only his wifes phone of those had any issues like your describing, the fix I found was to flash the stock ROM (may have to do it 2X) and re-unlock it again and then jump over to a custom ROM

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] xxmillertimexx:
One problem I have with one of your ROM's is that it doesn't always vibrate, for example when I get an SMS, if I'm in the message it won't vibrate. When I am at the main home screen it will, but only if I'm out of the message. Why is this? It's actually quite irritating because I always have to exit the message if I want to have any sort of notification.

Here're a few things I think people have found in the current Sprint ROM:

-The SMS read status only being activated for one SMS at a time. (Very annoying, haha.)

-No more MJPEG codec to play recorded videos with WMP. (Is available in the Stock Sprint ROM. Not a bug, just something that would be cool to have. :P)

-Memory usage starting at 40% and rising up to 60% without any apps running. (Reported by a bunch on people... Manila hogging ram/memory leaks?)

-Boot Animation is laggy. (Don't if it's a Sprint only issue.)

-Randomly Freezes on the boot screen and requires hard-reset. (It happend to me 3 times, lol.)

-... Anything else, haha?
