How are you flashing? Via PC or SD card. Did you change anything in M2D? Did you add any programs?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
Yeah cause like I tried to explain before is that if one person (ME) can install and run on a HTC VOGUE from a stock sprint rom then ANYONE should be able to. All the phones are the same so it has to be something on your guys' end.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
All phones should be the same, however they are not. Some have different revision cpu, and cheap nand flashes, which aren't made by samsung. This is evident in 99% of all the new Vogues being shipped this year, and some of the models from last year. From my knowledge the cause of a sudden hard reset is due to the nand flash. Take the example of overclocking DDR ram on a PC. Setting improper timings, and going overboard with the frequency, will most likely cause a sudden reboot before even getting into the OS. This is also a problem that plagues cheap DDR ram as well.

So, no this issue is definately not due to the ROM. It can be caused by only two factors. Running multiple programs that require excess cpu usage and memory allocation, and in turn the memory may not be able to handle it and result in a hang or crash. The other factor may be that the flash memory on the phone is simply cheap, and low quality brand.

I say this because this is an isolated issue, which only some people have. Not everyone here. I've been running 1.28 since Feb.11th, and haven't had absolutely any issues with either the battery drain or hard resets. I bought my phone in May 2008, so it is one of the early revisions. I did notice, that replacements which are shipped from providers such as Bell, are abysmal in quality. Either the LCD is poor, the keys are finicky and the internals are cheap.

A word of advice to those that say they have issues with the battery... Charge by USB. It is better, and the battery lasts longer. Don't compare battery you used to have on the stock ROM, with my ROM. The stock ROM is all base, and there are barely any good features on it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
that is by far one of the funniest things Ive ever read... Do you think one 2008 Ford Mustang is the same as all 2008 Ford Mustangs, or one HP DC7800 PC is the same as the rest?

by far they are not, Ive worked in the IT dept for a Ford plant in Detroit and believe me, revision changes and minor part revisions are common (just check the rear axels LOL) - and yes check the motherboard in several of the same make/model of home PC and guess what, different hardware there as well

Not slamming you by any means, really Im not, but to say its the ROM is bad because it doesnt work on yours and a few others is simplistic at best and there isnt a Vogue ROM I havent ran and tested and there are MAJOR differences in hardware you would never see without opening the cases up or looking up the parts list via HTC based on the serial numbers

Memory and Screen issues amongst these phones are common and hardware glitches are as well - NFSFAN, setup a poll to get some numbers of whom downloaded the ROM vs who runs it without issue vs those with issues and the numbers will be more towards the works well than not as with most ROMS

Ive ran alot of ROMS where flashing and working on making it work became fruitless to attempt so I moved onto other ROMS, didnt blame the Chef, they can only work with what they have and test with what they have in hand if it isnt working give some more detail on what is being done and what is occuring at what point, carrier, version, etc .. Not just blaming the ROM and thats that... Lots of people read this thread and can help but not without the details

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
I am not blaming the rom or the cooker. I think NFSFAN has the best available rom out there. And you can compare cars to phones. I get the anology but there indeed different modle cars. I am sure there are minor differences with hardware stuff from phone to phone but for the most part the are built the same. I just hink alot of the issues people might have is that they have programs that are eating up memory are installed bad.

I wasn't trying to bad mouth anyone or anything but alot of theings asked are already posted. I mean, i read through all pages to find my answers before I post questions. I have even posted some querstions that no has replied to so I move on and do some more searching instead of doing it the lazy way and post and repost the same questions.

I hope you guys understand where I am coming from. I am just trying to do my part.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
OK, as I already stated I am not slamming you... and yes I can compare cars to phones but that was NOT the comparison, the idea is you can have the same make/model of anything and through its production run you will end up with different hardware making up the same model and its legal to a certain percentage of change done hence the reference to the Ford Mustang, the Ford plant I worked in made Ford Axles, and with the change in the axles mid-production did NOT institute a make or model change and thats the same with the phones on the market today, much like cars or PC's if a part is defective from the vendor or a new revision of a motherboard is being produced by a vendor it does not make the production facility have to change the make or model name.

I understand and appreciate people that do read and research, this is not my ROM, I didnt make it, but I do alot of tearing them apart and testing them all the time as I also take care of the mobile phones/smartphones in my company as well and need to know whats the most stable and best out there for recommendations at work (use blackberrys currently but many of the people have smartphones as personal phones as well as the company is considering a switch over as well)

but as some have stated and I already answered, if the ROM doesnt work for you it most likely is a hardware compatibility issue from the supplier or their vendors and to try another ROM, stock ROMs will have all the default drivers, dll's etc in them as the factory has access to them, the Chefs can only gather up what they can dig out of phones and base ROMs they can tear apart and piece out, some of had issues and have subsequently blamed either NFSFAN, Whosdamn, Conflipper, RSTOguy, Dette and many many others but there are times without seeing the issue or physically doing it it cant be fuly diagnosed and the couple Ive looked at that were local to me it has always been end-user issues or when opened up and compared differing hardware but unlike a PC we cant swap out a modem or memory on these LOL

try an older version and wait until this version is replaced or try another ROM outright

Again, not slamming ya, just conversing :)

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] blaudick:
going to try it again

OK, so I'm going to give 1.09 Sprint a try again. (Currently on 1.08 Sprint)

Here is the plan.

EDIT****I'm not going to Reload HTC Sprint WM6.1 as I won't to keep Radio 3.42.50

So I am simply going to put my phone into Boot Loader Mode and Install 1.09 Sprint.

Should I do a hard reset after installing the final ROM? Also, by hard reset do they mean Send/END/Power-On that brings up the "Reset to Factory Defaults" screen? Or is a hard reset similar to pulling the battery?

I'll let you know tomorrow if it resolved my lockup/recustimoziation issues.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
you could bypass the Sprint original ROM, but thats up to you...

once flashed to the custom ROM, the yes RED+GREEN+Stylus in pinhole until the gray screen appears, hit the enter key and wait, then left key and allow customizations and the like and you should be all set

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] rexdale_tiger:
he was just asking a question, which NFSFAN answered,

so there is no reason for you to make fun of him like that.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] sleepyz:
Random hard resets

I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue, but I'm going to report this problem anyways.

I had no issues before 1.28 Bell rom, but since flashing 1.28, I've encoutered random freezes and hard resets itself upon pushing the soft-reset button. I've flashed 1.28 twice and still encountering this problem.

I love your rom and again, I'm not sure if it's a hardware of software issue. But I'm putting this problem out there incase anyone is experiencing this.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] blaudick:
Great, the fast response I was looking for. I just reinstalled 1.09 Sprint from the Boot Loader mood and then did a hard reset. I will instill my usual apps and see if anything gets crazy on me.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
WTF are you talking about??? I in no way made fun of anyone NOR was there an intent to, the comment about it being funny is how often I hear that in the IT field from end users...

As stated there was no slam on him nor was one intended and I went on to explain and WE have had a decent thread of conversation going with it

Perhaps if he is not offended

you

shouldnt worry about it

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
I noticed you said your on sprint with the 3.42.50 which is bell based. When you installed the bell rom you didn't let the customizations run did you? Just checking. I also used the the 3.42.50 based radio and didnt really see a big difference in anything so I flashed the stock sprint 3.42.30 radio and have had no known issues yet. Just an fyi
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
HAHAHAHAHA OK KIDS!!!!!!! I am not upset I just thought the comparison was funny. LOL!!!!!!! I understand what he is saying though. There is deifferent components inside even though they seem to be the same models. Anyways Lets not crap this thread out.

EDIT!!!!!!!!!!!! AND I AM SO OFFENDED HAHAHAHAHAHA JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
For me personally, I have upped the version of my radio from 3.42.30 to .50 no I did not let bell customizations run as I run Sprint and didnt want anything Bell but the radio...

Step by step

flash

reboot

check radio version

pull battery

insert flash SD card

flash from bootloader

allow customs

hard reset

allow customs

Tweak as desired...

According to NFSFAN, the radio isnt needed and he states NOT to up the radio version, although I have had no issue nor any phone Ive flashed since then to this ROM or others - really the only thing Ive personally noticed is a bit quicker lock on GPS but nothing that great, faster by a second or 3 and better reception in areas of the building I work at that before would be roam only which for me is a good enough reason but YMMV

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
ROFL - you sir crack me up LOL

here is a tissue for your issue BTW LOL

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
All right take it easy here. No one is making fun of anyone.

EDIT: I've soft-reset like 10 times already. I still can't make it hard reset. :( What am I doing wrong.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
HUH???

left+green+stylus in hole (hold all 3 until gray screen) = hard reset

just stylus in hole - soft reset

your not serious right??

Or am I just understanding a different terminology (think different get an IPod LOL)

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] myshinynewtouch:
detroit doug - i am on sprint too and am thinking of a upping to bell radio, but didnt want to do it if it is of no use... but did u have positive experience with getting better reception in a previously poor area... in my home i get 1 bar of service and would really love it if i can get two with no signal droppage... any pitfalls in upping the radio to bell radio ???
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
LOL. Well I'm trying to get my phone to hard reset, by soft resetting it. Like some people here claim they have this problem. I can't reproduce it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
The Radio won't do much for your signal. The only way you could effectively boost your signal, is to mount a satellite dish on your phone. Then you will get 4 bars on the go. lol
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
I dont know about that, maybe its just coincidence and they upgraded service here in Las Vegas the same day I upped my radio version but in the basement of the Wynn where the smoking area is - I would only get roaming and bad reception at that but I upped the radio and get 1/2 bars there now consistently regardless of ROM used

Again, maybe its a coincidence they upgraded the servers and towers but I doubt it LOL

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
Well ya. I guess it could give you better reception. I dunno though. When I upgraded my radio like 3 times. First from stock to Sprint, then to alltel, the finally to bell. My reception was pretty much the same.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
I noticed no difference.

I JUST LAUGHED SO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this site.

Background/theme problems

I ended up switching the background via the Manilla2DC, and the text looked terrible with the blue/red background. Anyway, so I tried to switch back to the file in the /Windows/ directory (_ff_background.png or soemthin') and it never works. It just keeps the terrible looking bg i put there, even with soft resets, etc.

My question is how can i switch it back to the original background and I just won't bother messing around with it?

Rom Usage

I'm somewhat illiterate at all this business. Had a touch pro but returned it and reactiveated my XV6800 through Verizon. Can I use your rom on it?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
orginal as in with this rom or is in the stock manilla back ground. Cause this rom has the diamond back ground.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
WTF!!!!! I WANT THE PRO!!!!!!!!!!!! lol. Yes this is fot the htc touch. Please follow directions on flashing roms before asking though. Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] aleclerc:
I just want it back to the one that came with the rom
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
Ok, I can upload it tonight but I am at work right now. If someone could help him out that would be awesome. Otherwise you will have to wait till about 7 my time or 2 more hours roughly.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] brab:
HTC Okay but

Battery life poor, didn't like opera, couldn't edit slide screen fields, slow with Touch Flo enabled, not enough buttons. My opinion only and we all have one of those you know.

XV 6800

Thermus

I think you misunderstood me. I have an XV6800 with Verizon and wondered if I could use this rom on it?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] natefish:
William, I totally agree. I like it, but not enough to fork out the $$. I will hold onto my little beauty until the Touch Pro2 comes out. Funny that HTC came out with the Touch Pro2 so soon after Touch Pro, the original. Almost like they knew they could do better.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
No .. you cannot use this ROM on that phone, this is the XV6900 or HTC Vogue ROM, the XV6800 is the Mogul or Titan and you will need to go here http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=382 for those ROMS

SRS WOW on Sprint 1.09???

NFSFAN or anyone, do you know if SRS WOW HD works on this ROM? In the past all it has done to my phone is silence all sound. However, I was wondering if anyone has used it successfully before I go sabotage my phone again. Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] brab:
Thanks detroit doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
Oh lol sorry This is definantly touch only and looks like doug beat me to your answer.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
I believe the 2 files you will need are these inside this zip file

it is hh_fw_background.png and HTCHomeSettings.xml and I believe Ive read that the version of TF2D with IOLITE (footprints, etc) in it has a different layout in the homesettings xml file and lots of people have been having issues with appling themes as the settings are off

the guys that ported over TF2D are working on compatibility within M2D Customizer but always make sure to backup your current/default theme FIRST before applying a new one just in case it does wonky stuff like it did for you so you can go back to the default

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] baaadandy:
THANK YOU!!! Downloading now. Your ROMs are the best. Been using 1.04 on VZW a while now and this is an awesome update.

Thanks for the hard work NFSFAN you roms are unbeatable:)
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] k000:
working well for last 2 hours... great job NFSFAN !

Does anyone know how do I get GMail mobile app ?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] k000:
I noticed that Touch would become non responsive every now and then, and I then deleted the VoiceCommand form the startup and it seems to have fixed the problem.

GMail is working with JBlend quite well.....

I do have a question / observation, when I punch anyone's name and see the numbers with Smart Dial, most of the times I can't see the h / m (home / mobile) at the end of the names.... and it is resproducible every time
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] SL.:
is there a way to change the background color of the full screen that shows when there is an incoming call? the white background seems off from the overall darker theme of the skin.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
Please check page 13 for the Rev2 update!!!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] k000:
Is there a way to change the behavior of the screen when there is an incoming call ? I would like to have the touch button rather than the slide to answer...

BTW, I love the way my Google Search and maps are working... few months ago I had given up on GPS functionality.. but it works without blinking an eye on your ROM :)

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tareks:
I would like to have a way to change this too. I'm not a big fan of sliding to answer a call, seems like an extra needless step.

Also, and I haven't actually checked for myself yet, but can you adjust the call volume while in a call now? Oh, and can you adjust the screen brightness now?

Fantastic rom though! I'm still playing with all the features and such. Thanks!

Is sprint tv working for anybody cause it doesnt for me?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] SL.:
works fine for me (in regards to SprintTV).

i'm having issues with in-call volume adjustment using my physical volume slider. pushing it up to make it louder actually makes the volume lower. the screen also shows it as going higher, but obviously it's doing the opposite. anyone else have this issue?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] dekeMX:
could someone upload the sprint v1.02 beta to another share site besides megaupload. rapidshare would be great or 4shared.:)
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] xenokira:
Could you please elaborate on the details of these issues?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thermus:
Damn I just walked in the door and was going to do this lol.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
TouchPro2 sucks. Same junk hardware on the inside. Just more glamour on the outside. I'm not buying anything until HTC releases the new phones with the nvidia tegra chipset.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
All you have to do is go into settings and click wallpaper. It will ask you if you want to go back to the old one.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] GadgetFreak:
So far so good with Sprint 1.09. I do have one observation/question. Has anyone else notice that when you open the start menu and open a file or program from it, instead of the colored selected item bar, you get a white bar that overlays the colored one? Any ideas on what this could be? It's minor, but irritating all the same.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] aleclerc:
Thanks for the help, restoring the xml didn't seem to solve my issue. I just did a hard reset since I hadn't set much stuff up yet anyway.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bigjohn_S:
YO MR NFSFAN!

Super rom dude.

I note the above - re: changing the soft key from "camera" to programs.

In the previous (pre-footprints) release, pressing the "programs" softkey from the TODAY page took you to the Programs widget, not the full programs list.

Is there a way to do this?
