Happy 99.8%

Hi all

I was running the Athinos rom with Radio NIKI_1.65.29.22

Which I was happy with, as it was my first rom change every think worked well nearly, after a couple of days I changed the spl to hard 3.29 it all still worked. Then I changed the radio rom to NIKI_1.65.29.22.

I flashed the phone a couple of more times with the newer athinos roms as they came out all very simple I know.

Then I stumbled into this thread read the first 10 pages all seemed o.k so I thought hey why not try, and I loaded 2.25.21109 2G updated that all workrd great with the NIKI_1.65.29.22 radio good gps lock time good signal etc in the house 4 bars.

Now I have flashed to Phoenix 2.3.21109.2g Rebuild and yes before I did it, flashed back to my basic stock rom and radio as suggested in the reading I have done here, great all works well, then I flashed radio 1.59.46.12

[March 6, 2009] New Radio for Kaiser - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=490303 and I must say its even better gps signal in the house 5 bars end stop plus quick lock.

All in all I'm very happy with this rom, but yes here are problems (proberbly of my own making) 3 in all.

1: Quick gps does not work well it won't download the file, it used to on the Athinos rom download that is, but my gps is so quick I don't think I need it? Since the hard reset I have not tried the Quick GPS as I have read it makes no difference and my GPS is so quick

2: I have tried to do a hard reset and I get the multi coloured screen all right I have tried both methods sadly to say the files i have loaded like Suduko and garmin GPS are still there. So I don't know what I'm doing wrong?. Update I have found a programme on the rom calles Power OFF that seems to have solved my hard reset problem by doing it for me

3: some times google maps works and gives me the veiw map icon some times it does not, i surch for the local mcDonalds (as there is always one Lol) I use the GPS option. The Power Off has also sorted the google maps out again so it looks like my troubles where of my own making as i said
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Hyden121:
This version is definately more smooth than the previous. I may have missed this in the forums but is there a reason that this rom is using the old manilla 2D? There are other Manilla 2D versions that are more current but I suppose it may be for the sake of stability. Anyone know which video drivers this is using?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] daleykd:
Just as an FYI: I was able to successfully download the Ephemeris file using Quick Position just fine using the 2.3.21109. I disabled the proxy (since I'm AT&T), and everything is peachy.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] daleykd:
I THINK that the program NATF v5 used instead of Quick Position was QuickGPS by HTC. The closest I can do to confirm is this screenshot: QuickGPS.

Also, I'm almost 100% sure that the application NATF v5 used to 'jumpstart' the GPS was GPS Test v1.04.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] parleyp:
Yes I am using version 20 of manila for animations and stabilty and weather customization in the 2.3.21109 rom.

The iolite rom uses manila from that set which is newer, doesn't have animations and can't be customized for weather yet.

We are using HTC TI video drivers in both roms.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] daleykd:
Could someone send me \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Positioning\icon (the shortcut)? I accidentally deleted it and would love to have the Positioning icon back.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] daleykd:
AHA! I love our chefs! For anyone who's interested, if you ever accidentally delete the .lnk file, there appears to be a backup copy in \Windows.

For Positioning, it's called positioningico.lnk. For System Tools, it's called "system toolsico.lnk".

Thanks again!

I tried to update Quick Position again this morning. It worked perfectly with no other changes to my phone settings or radio.

I changed to hyperdragon.

I am very happy with the change I find it a lot more stable but missing some stuff that phoenix had.

radio:1.65.24.36

GPS taks about 20 seconds to load
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] parleyp:
I am glad you found something you like. I have my gps loading about as fast as you state here...but everyone's device is just a little different. That is why it is good that there are many chefs cooking something for all of us.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] davewaave:
Wow! I didn't know anything about it. I will try it shortly. Thanks for all the info -- Seriously, that's way decent to type all that.

Edit: It works! Maybe I'm under the placebo effect here but it seems faster too!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] parleyp:
It is faster...I found the hack somewhere in the forum or somewhere else...just keep it in my notes so I can set up my hermes. You make the change after you let connection setup do its thing so you have all the other types of connectivity.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KZIWarrior:
You are correct. I looked again at the ROM files I have.

To ParleyP and Travito I would suggest maybe looking into those as a possible alternative. My GPS does load with the included program, but much slower than it did with NATF v5.

Other than this apparent issue I'm loving the ROM. I can go 2 full days with decent usage. Haven't seen any other issues yet.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KZIWarrior:
What is it exactly you're trying to do?? The "Power Off" just turns the device off, same as holding the power button, doesn't reset anything.

Think you are slightly confused to what a "Hard Reset" is and does. If/when you boot you go to the tri-color screen (by holding the camera and the power button while pressing the reset button) that is NOT a hard reset. All that does is tell the device to go into the bootloader.

A "Hard Reset" will CLEAR ALL DATA from your device (not storage card) and return the ROM to it's default configuration (you will have to go through the setup like screen alignment, setting password ect). You can perform a hard reset via two methods.

1- Preferred method -The first is to press BOTH of the soft-buttons buttons while pressing the reset button. You will know you did it correctly when you are presented with a white screen prompting you to press the send button to "clear all data". It will then tell you to push send again to boot the device and the ROM will go through the customization as when you first load it.

2-Alternative method - Go to Settings>System Tab and select "Clear Storage". It will then ask you if you want to reset the device (or something like that, been a while since I've used it.)

The first time I run TomTom on Phoenix (radio 1.70.19.09) it took about 5 sec:eek: Couldn't believe it. That was the first time. Right now I do get a lock anywhere between 15-20 sec. based on location, weather etc. All it's relative,
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
Same, and I don't even know if i had the Ephermahdoohickey file updated, latest 1.65 and not even on 2.3 yet, still 2.25 2G Rebuild. got a 5-15 sec lock IN MY HOUSE. just opening it up to put in addresses.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KZIWarrior:
Travito, what 1.65 are you running (just curious, may try it)... though i haven't tried TomTom on 2.3 yet on 2.25 it would take at least a min and a half (average around 2 min). I'll def update if you've found one that might work better.

Hi great rom thanks

is it possible to use cutomiser in some way of the following -

i want to link the calender & tasks to Pocket informant

thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] thefatboy:
Thanks for the reply

I did the Preferred method but nothing happened I tried the camera and the power button while pressing the reset button only got a soft reset, then i tried the Power off and I got a complete reeboot with the ROM going through the customization like when you first load it so some how It did a hard rest for me.

Now I have just pressed thr stylis in then the two soft-buttons and for the first time i have got the white screen and writing so i will follow the instrutions and see how I get on, thanks for you help.:D

bad flash maybe, im not having any troubles with sms or mms in the 2.3 build and the intermitten sms/mms lag that was in previous builds is gone on 2.3 as well.

Will give it another test here in a sec for you, with Ephithingy updated. (I don't feel like looking up the spelling, sue me.)

not even one Sat, from my desk within 30 secs, must have had the curtain or something opened a bit, though that's still a stretch across the room...

let me put it on the windowsill.

Still nothing within 30 secs from the windowsill with tomtom alone.

Installed GPSTest 3D Fix in windowsill in 38 seconds, even back at my desk, through room blackening curtains and privacy blinds, still finding more sats and keeping a good lock

Looks like we need to add gps test to the apps on the device.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mazin13:
gps test is a must for me...always install it in every rom and it works like magic...

update on my rom experience so far:

by far quickest rom...very stable (i have not had to soft reset in god knows when)...everything is working great....

slight suggestion:

in the next build, if u could maybe play with the theme a little, its great and everything but u know....just a new look to feel it is a new rom...still keeping with the phoenix bird related theme OFCOURSE
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] msd24200:
yes, maybe in a red theme since a phoenix is considered a bird of fire? blue and black themes seem to be the main stay, maybe just release a different phoenix theme (M2DC) for others?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jaketti:
I still have problems, when i reset or turn off in anyway and turn back on the touchflo and m2d doesn't load just normal today screen. I soft reset over and over and it finally works. have reflashed twice. This has happen in every build of this rom I have used since 2.22 build. Any suggestions will be helpfull...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] nofatchicks:
I was having that problem too. I updated my radio and disabled the proxy like was mentioned in the first post of this thread and it took care of me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] msd24200:
i've not had this problem with ANY of the phoenix builds, what have you installed? have you been changing themes?

how about skinny chicks?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] parleyp:
What did you load after you flashed? Did you do the n2a update by any chance or load someone's cab to load footprints? The issue you are having is a sure sign of a corrupted xml file..that controls m2d. So does this happen right after you flash or after you install things?

Also, did you install the stock rom first as outlined in the first post? It is sounding like there are remnants out there...Flashing doesn't always erase everything. Please let us know.

Also--To reiterate do NOT install the weather fix for manila. It is built into this rom already.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] dlkj:
Radio Question

Can you install a radio without reflashing the rom? Or does the new radio pretty much clear out the phone?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] parleyp:
You can flash a radio without resetting the phone. Please make sure you have hard spl on there--which you should have done before flashing Phoenix.

Parley
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] msd24200:
yes you can flash radio only and no it doesn't clear out the phone, it just overwrites the old radio, and doesn't bother the rom.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jaketti:
idk what the n2a update is so no, in one of the old builds I had the problem right after the flash but now it doesnt happen the first 3 or 4 times I reset then it just starts messin up. I reflashed 2 days ago and just started having this problem again today.

The only things i have added is livesearch, transformers sliding sounds, parley vibrate on answer, pocket rar, esmertec jbed, and galarm... Any known problems with these?? I flashed stock rom before the last few builds but I didnt this time I flashed from 2.26 theme to 2.3.21109.2g I thought it would be ok.

I'll will goto stock and back later tonight and update you on that.

Also, I haven't been changing themes...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jaketti:
So I do need to reflash the stock everytime???

Thanx for all the help!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] parleyp:
You don't need to unless you have kind of strange errors which you are having right now...so let's do that and we'll troubleshoot from there.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jaketti:
OK I flashed stock rom then new 2.3 rom I've soft reset 3 times with no problem so far. I'm gonna mess around with settings tonight and then install each app one by one and reset after each one to see if thats it. Any other suggestions?

Otherwise I'll let ya know 2moro
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KZIWarrior:
Can you post or PM me the cab for the GPSTest you used... I can't seem to find any that aren't from mid '07. Thanks. And that's the same radio I'm on, has been the best for me so far.

+1 for adding GPSTest to the ROM, Think it def helps TomTom start up the GPS. Though I used windowslive last weekend while I was traveling and it seems to pick up the GPS pretty quick.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KZIWarrior:
I've got nothing against the background image/scheme... I wouldn't mind see the tabs and fonts changed up a bit. Perhaps have a few different themes that can be choosen from/switched.

Note: On that I've been using the M2DC with the new 2.3 and haven't had any issues (not even the internet tab error as with 2.25). Great job guys.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] msd24200:
i've been using m2dc as well with NO problems at all, and i like black themes prob the best, but would like to see something nice other than black or blue because prob 99% of roms use black and or blue.

We'll I love everything about this rom except for the fact that this is the first rom Ive used in months that has given me connection errors?!? Very frustrating, I have tried disabling proxy, att cab, connection setup all fail with flying colors. Does anyone have any advice?

For those about to beat me down verbally telling me to use the search function or read the entire thread, I have searched and read through several pages but I do not have time to read a couple hundred pages. With this said I am simply looking for a solution as I would like to use this rom. Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
Done.

Anyone wanting to see what i'm considering for Phoenix III (or maybe we'll call it Phoenix 2.5 - Fully Loaded, depending on if we follow this Rhodium hype or go to 6.5) MUST go to http://phxdev.wkycomputing.com and register and participate in our development process like good little worker drones.

Or, you can just sit here and wait and not get to see until it's released, and not get to have a say as to what we pick.

The thread over at PDC is open to suggestions, keep in mind that many of you are business users, so pick business friendly themes to suggest that aren't too horribly busy and such.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
No one's going to beat you down if you've done your homework and anyone that tries will get verbally laid out by me or parley personally.

That's a strange issue, I'd suggest first trying to flash stock, hard reset after flash and then flashing Phoenix 2.3 again and hard reset after flash, this will ensure there's no silly little snags getting in the way. (I suggest 2.3.21109 personally with CMonex's 3.29 Hard2, use her 3.56Hard2 if you're going to do Iolite)

I think it has something to do with the 21xxx base, weird little random issues involving not having flashed stock first and such are increasing with the 21 bases, methinks HTC/M$ has no love for the Kaiser anymore. It could be some other stuff too, being that no base other than the HTC originals were "meant" for the Kaiser. :(

Yeah, my idea's a PITA, i know, but eh, if it works, it'll work.

hey trav do you remember a couple months or so ago i had all those connection problems and the only time that i could get my phone to connect was when running stock rom?

it just started out of the blue, i'd try to surf the web or update weather, and the phone showed that i was connected to medianet HSDPA but none of my aps that get info from the web would work. nothing would work unless i would soft reset about 10 times or take that battery out a couple of times. everything kept saying unable to locate server, check connection setting, etc... so i reflashed some cooked roms that i had ran in the past and still had same problem, next i reflashed the wm6.1 att rom and finaly my connection was working right. i flashed another cooked rom, back to the same problem again, so again i flashed another cooked rom, same problems still, again flashed the 6.1 stock rom and it worked, flashed cooked rom again, problem back again. everyone was telling me it was hardware related, so i was getting worried, so i decided to try something else. i downloaded the stock att wm6.0 rom and flashed it, RE-LOCKED my phone (was planning on taking it back), then flashed the att 6.1 rom, i ran that rom for about a day then i decided to try a cooked rom one last time, i re-unlocked my tilt, and flashed the rom that all this started with, but this time all was better, and it has worked fine since. i hope this helps!!!

Radios

So about radios, why are there so many, and is there any significance to the number...is the highest number the latest? Is the latest radio supposed to be better than the previous? Just trying to make sense of radios. Live in Northern Ca, AT&T and just trying to get a starting point.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
Many are from semi-official updates from HTC. Many are from other devices, etc. Bigger numbers mean newer radios generally, but that's not always a good thing, often quite the contrary.

Well back today, same problem again I flashed stock then 2.3 last night and soft reset to see if the problem happened again and it didnt.

So all day, I've been installing my apps and soft reseting after each to see if the problem came back. I got about 6 cabs on while at work and my battery died, just got home turned on and its happening again touchflo isn't loading and m2d didn't start.

Im on my 5th soft reset now and still nothing, everything works fine it just dont startup. I went under windows in file explorer and started manila2d but when I do this the time on the home screen doesnt update or change at all.

The last app I put on was galarm. Any help??
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
That is Really, Really, Really, Really weird. Esp. that your battery died that quickly, unless it was only barely at 50% at the time of your flash.

List EVERYTHING you have installed at this point. ParleyVib on connect is built back in i think, or at least it was in my rebuild but he may have just added that because he was rebuilding it for me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jaketti:
Yeah my battery was just at 50% last night and I used the phone today with a motrokr t505 bluetooth fm transmitter for 5 hours so it wasnt that bad.

Ok hear the exact order, m2dc, transformer sliding sound, vibrate on connect, pocket rar, galarm. I soft reset about 4 times after and everything worked fine and then when the batt. died that was it I still havent got it back going.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Travito:
H-R. Do not install Vib on Connect as I think it's built in now. What version of M2DC, and what SPECIFIC build number are you running? 21109 or Iolite?

If you're on Iolite, M2DC might be your problem.
