Have observe faster battery drain for this ROM version.

Use my HD for internet sharing for my laptop via usb. It seems like the battery charging is not able to keep up with the tethering task. Using radio 1.17 for current & previous ROMs.

Will revert to previous ROMs and see. Maybe it's the HD hardware or the battery getting old.

Hello again KWBR and ty for all your efforts!

I would like to ask if you're thinking about cooking a ROM with MaxSense UI.

I just tried it and it looks very smooth and light on our HDs.

Thx again!!!

Bugs Found

After using the new ROM (HD 0.1) here's what I've noticed:

- Keyboard seems to respond slower than your last build.

- Youtube videos play *VERY* slowly and choppy.

- HTC txt messaging responds slowly,

- HTC txt is also buggy... mine broke so using tmail.exe (winmo default) which is more responsive.

- Bottom soft keys dissapear from the titanium home screen (common on all WM6.5 roms)

- Manilia runs slow on this build

- Phone keypad feels *slightly* slower to load up...

Your last build before this seemed much better than this build so I'm going to move back to it. Thanks for your continued work on the ROM, as far as I see, the last Topix version of your ROM (not the 0.1 HD) is the best ROM for the Touch HD at the moment.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] acecooper:
Battery

I had this problem before. The battery would charge at a slow rate as long as the HD wasn't doing anything (faster if the phone is turned off) and the battery would drain quickly and the bottom of the phone would get hot when it's idle.

I tried everything (installing old ROMS, Radios etc) but nothing fixed it... it was broken :(. FYI, I was using the same radio as you and happened after I installed a new ROM which I do often.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] slimest:
To avoid battery drain and heating: beginning from WM5 I perform fake server trick on every WM device and every system I install. It is well known, but just in case:

1. Launch ActiveSync app

2. Go to Menu - Add server source and add a fake server with any name, login etc.

3. Say OK

4. Then go to menu again and push Schedule. Set to manual both options in sync schedule.

5. After that you can delete your fake server, you don't need it anymore. That's it.

Not shure if it is your case, but you can try.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Smobbo:
Perhaps you have the phone attached to USB at that time? If you have chosen for disk drive and your MP3 is on your storage card the phone can't acces the storage card anymore (and thus can't acces your MP3 file).

Video playback and locking problem

I have installed the latest version of the ROM - kwbr 0.1 (May.30.2010) - but I have an annoying problem. When I try to play a video when on battery power the phone automatically locks after 30 seconds. I have also s2u2 installed but I have not found any settings there to revert this behaviour.

Used for couple of days

I installed and used 0.1 for couple of days now, the day to dat phone operations are working fine except some issue listed below. I am 24x7 connected to my company emails, sync weather on hourly basis, connected to windows live mail all the time and sync gmail and yahoo once a day. These activities I am performing on all the roms I use, although I am using kwbr for probably 8 months or so now, wonderful work kwbr.

- Keyboard responce is slower than your earlier builds

- HTC messaging responce is slow

- Manilia runs slow on this build

- memory usage is high after a days usage. ( it goes to around 70% for me while your earlier builds reached maximum of 58%)

- Battery drain is quite faster than earlier builds.

from Around 2 Years i use mostly NRG ROM`s and ive tryed almost every ROM.. befor few days i flash with TOPIX 3.5 WM 6.5 Manila 2.1 Sense and i can say that this is the most stable, fast and beauty ROM, i was not able to find the Original Thread of this ROM and i download it from htcpedia i hope that kwbr will make soon some new TOPIX 6.5 Sense 2.1 Soon with refreshing the new Packages etc...

Now im sure than no one can beat a kwbr ROMs

Thank you for the great ROM i read its a build from 30 January now is Juny and till now no one ROM can compare to this.. speed smooth and bugs free rom:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] slimest:
saimuk, thank you for spending time to write your small overview. Valuable information indeed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] r_9:
I totally agree with you Tsalta. I'm also using the 3.5 sense 2.1 and really feel that it's the best rom for our HD ever. Stable and fast and fancy looking(subjective...as I love sense more than manila 2.1) I'll also love to see our chef update his WM6.1 roms. I tried some 6.5/6.5.x roms and somehow I go back to 6.1.

It'll be even nicer if our chef can come up with a 6.1 rom with sense 2.5!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] saimuk:
kwbr's roms are stable

well, I dont think there is anything left in 6.1 roms to be updated thats the reason no chef is coming up with any new 6.1 release, maybe one or two chefs currently working on 6.1 builds. 6.1 build with sense 2.5 has got serious performance issues, at least I have personally found many performance hiccups in this combination maybe because 2.5 sense is not meant for 6.1 roms.

I agree with your point that kwbr's roms are very stable ones.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tusuka:

question for master chef KWBR

I am using 3.6 topix wwe on my blackstone and I can tell that I never saw such amazing performance and excellent memory management and i go way back with htc (from Toronado over Att's 8125 tilt, FUZE) and now HD blackstone and tilt 2 AKA TP2

So i was wondering is there any way that you can cook TP2 rom of same quality as 3.6 Topix for Blackstone (startup RAM 45% and no matter what you do to it, it doesn't go over -55% also almost 270 MB of free storage after flash)

I would be eternally thankful

​

. and i guess big TP2 user community

i just finished setting up my device with the new rom. i do performed Task29 then rom setup, then hard reset... no other programs installed... Problems: adding new contact is impossible.. pressing "Done" as soon as you finish with the contact details and nothing happens. Furthermore, when you tap on a massage in the manila sms tab, nothing happens.. it is impossible to read your messages through manila interface. In the WM start menu the shortcut concerning the Reset of the device is missing... Please confirm for all of those..

Topix Blackstone ROM :: hTC messaging :: wm6.5 (21901) :: Sense 2.5

I flashed it yesterday and installed tengothumb keyboard, set the alarm and went to bed. Next morning the phone is dead. I Remove the battery and reinsert it.. the phone had been hardreset and I have to redo everything.. then I installed all and went to work. In the middle of the day the phone hardreset again! anyone else got this problem?? It wrecks my whole day!.. :/
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Don.:
Thanks for the info guys,

After flashing to Topix 6.5 Sense 2.1 this weekend I've started having a similar problem. I put it down to the Rom as the previous two Roms Id had used the same card without a problem.

The strange thing is that my SD Card (Sandisk 8GB) is visible when I restart the phone or take the card out then put it back in. However when my phone goes to sleep the storage card disappears.

I'll try formatting and see how things go.

KWBR: Thank you very much for your excellent work.

Aside from the issue (which appears to have nothing to do with the Rom) I mentioned above this is by far the best Rom I've used.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Don.:
Id suggest flashing another Rom and seeing if the problem persists.

apparently task 29 doesnt helt solving the sudden hard reset problems according to a few ppl that wrote in the ROMthread at htcpedia..

"By asdfasdfzxcv May 09, 2010 05:21 AM

It's a great rom, but it has one flaw: it freezes at random times and the only way to restart it is to remove the battery.

I performed Task29 with radio 1.17.25.09 and then reflashed it (topix 3.6 w/ HTC messaging) but it still freezes."

Now sinc I still have this issue with the topix 1.3 ROM I can only hope that the same bug isn't in it also? But I will still try the task 29 but I don't dare to flash the sense 2.5 ROM (april) anymore :S

please KWBR, you did have a sense 2.5 version with WM6.5 21905 that got very good rating and popularity. You removed that onefrom htcpedia, can you upload it again? :S

Bug in Sense 2.5 Stock Tab ?

I was hoping this had something to do with the failure on the Level 3 servers yesterday, causing problems for internet users in Scandinavia and parts of Europe.

But today, when the Level 3 problems is reported to be fixed, the error is still there. This is strange, because several users of the latest versions of Sense 2.5, reports that this is working just fine for them.

Yesterday and today, I could easily enter these symbols in EasyShares, and it worked.

I had a backup for my normal exchange rates and stocks, but the problem is I'm going to Eastern Europe soon, and would like to enter some new rates.

This is a weird kind of bug, but I'm not sure where it's hidden. :(

For now, I've disabled the Stock Tab and use EasyShares instead.

In fact I've disabled most of the Sense tabs, because I find them more or less useless and slow.

But the Stock Tab is one of the more useful tabs, and I hope there is a solution somewhere......:confused:
