GREAT ROM!!!... this is the first 6.5 rom ive used and so far im likin it!..

but i gotta question..

when i lock the screen.. the screen isnt locked.. ican wait for the screen to dim, then tap it.. then my screen would bright up agian.. i ask this because if i lock the screen and put it in my pocket... will the screen ever turn off?

is there a way to lock the screen?

oh and is there a way to lock the screen/buttons when the screen turns off or if i push the power button and upon waking my phone up again itll be on the lock screen..

i guess im just really use to using s2u2... but i dont wanna use it with this rom, i just want the current one to work like s2u2..

THANKS again!!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SoberGuy:
Once you lock the screen, it dims after about 30 seconds, then turns off based on whatever your power settings are. Hitting the power button awakens the device, bringing up the lock screen.

As for having it auto-lock when you turn the screen off with the power button, I think there's a setting for that, but not positive.

Been off this thread for a bit (what with son's grad, work kicking my ass, summertime duties), but I just wanna put my $0.02 up...

@ljinsane, I really hope that the post you wrote was in jest, cuz, if not, boy, you deserve every flame you get. First of all, IMHO, I personally think that V5.1 is TPC's masterpiece (haven't flashed V6, hoping to do that tonite). I have had that bad boy on my phone since he released it and, to be quite honest, it is the best ROM I have flashed since I started flashing as I have had ZERO issues with it. So, dude, again, here's hoping that you either know TPC and was playing with him or just being sarcastic. To call another man's work crap (especially one that is provided to you for free) is just wrong, dude. I hope that the mods up in this place take notice of that post.

@TPC, like I said before, V5.1 is just awesome, dude. Kicking much ass! No complaints, none, will hit you up with a little something-something laterz. Looking forward to trying out V6...

@lawmom90, I believe it was you that recommended the combo of 3.34 and 1.70.18.02 (if I am wrong, please correct me). Glad I followed your suggestion, the battery life on my phone is ridiculous!

Anyway, hope it doesn't take me a week before I am back on again (a lot of reading old posts, wow). To ze Americans, happy Fourth! BBQ time, gents!

You are right about the lock settings. It is in settings lock. YOu can set it to lock after x min
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] pjcforpres:
How lucky am I? I had some extra time last night, and not even a minute after Shane finished uploading I was downloading!

V6 is amazing so far! I have had almost a full work day with no hangs or glitches yet. Super fast, super stable!

For those of you with batter drain issues, there are many things you can do to improve it besides Hard SPL and Radio...

1. Open up advanced configurator and turn on all the power saving options(They are all turned off)... this will make a big difference! Performance will be hindered some in terms of opening up a program will take a little longer, your SD card will take a second longer to load in file explorer, ect... but once you get the program running, it is just as fast as if you hadn't turned on the power saving options.

2. Put it in stand by mode when you aren't using it! Don't just set your phone down and let it slowly go to stand by when you aren't using it, use the power button to put it into stand by right away... it is amazing how much juice your screen uses.

3. While talking about screen using up power, turn down the back light.

4. Avoid WiFi when running on your battery... nothing drains a battery faster than WiFi with the performance turned all the way up(It will use about 1% a minute, depending on your browser, I was using Opera...)

5. Make sure you have properly conditioned the batter meter... next time your battery runs down, do a battery pull, then after you put it back in put the phone on your charger without turning on the phone and let it charge for a couple hours... this will ensure that your battery and your ROM are both on the same page.

Shane-

Thank you very much for another lovely WM 6.5 ROM! Your hard work is greatly appriciated! I wish I had extra cash... heck even cash flow... to give a donation, but my business is fluttery and likely going to die, and sales have been slow at my job.

Erotic background image

Great ROM Shane. Maybe I am overlooking it, but could someone point me to the background image used in the erotic theme? I'd like to use it as background in M2D.

:D Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] smokestack76:
Got this from both of ya. I have a 8 gig card with around 300mb free lol. It is really slow to access it. Rom speed is the same since i dont install anything to it but i do have around 500 or so songs loaded on root. And it loads them all as ringtones lmfao. Guess i never really thought about it until you two lol. So thanks. Im going to reformat it and folder all i can. Should be alot faster lol :eek:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SoberGuy:
LOL, glad that was the case!

Though it's good to see some people go to bat for their Chef!

On another note, been streaming music via BT stereo headset. Seems to be draining about 1% every 5 minutes. I'm not using my data connection, though it is open, no other programs running, wifi off, etc. I can live with 1% every 5 minutes! I usually stick it on my charger at work but wanted to check battery drain.

I flashed stock

Flashed 3.34

Flashed radio 1.70.whatever the hell Shane said he's using

Flashed v6

I'm happy as can be!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SoberGuy:
I prefer the landscape image from that theme :D

The theme is stored in \Windows as erotic_6_5.tsk Grab a theme editor (search, probably tons on the site!) and unpack the theme to grab the individual images.

file locations

In AdvancedConfig (locations) set up the sd card as the default location for each file type (ringtones, music, files, downloads). Then click on MENU and EXPORT your settings to the SD card. Then when you reflash, you can (in most instances - where the basic build is similar), you can flash your new rom, execute advconf & IMPORT those same settings. It speeds things a LOT.:D:D:D

Now that's a good tip! Thanks for that one!

That's funny!:D IE works great for me. IE has run the smoothest on TPC's v5.1. Matter of fact I was watching some videos yesterday. Almost as fast as Skyfire. As far as the battery issues some have been having, I've read through posts suggesting different radios for v6. I dl'ed v6 but haven't installed. I wanted to make some of these guys aware of some other radios to try. I went through every radio some one suggested to me for 6.5 with no luck(Hell, at one point my wallcharger wouldn't charge my phone.) So I decided to go back to the best radio I've ever used for 6.1: 1.59.46. Loaded with TPC v5.1 ....like butter! Wallcharger charges phone again. After, my normal daily use I have 75% as opposed to phone being die five hours into my day. MBarvian(hope I spelled it right) up'd this and some other radios about March. My buddy has another one on his Tilt that is working like a charm with 6.5. I'll try to find out the one he has so some of you with problems can try.

proxy needed?

Are you SURE that you NEED a proxy? I don't use any proxy on my ATT MediaNet connection. From everything that I have discovered, the only phones that need the proxy are the NON-smart phones.

I always turn OFF all proxy connections and it works great.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SoberGuy:
Man, are you doing any tweaks or anything? Using IE over wifi or 3G? Flashing a TPC ROM and running it stock out of the box IE is slow as HELL over 3G. Skyfire zips along. Hell, I installed Skyfire and navigated to a page before IE could even load the same page!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] raywaldo:
Battery

I agree. I have done a LITTLE of these things.

1. My settings were NOT changed

2. I DO press the pwr button when not using the phone

3. I turned the battery screen down one notch

4. I don't use WIFI much

5. I have a USED Tilt (250 hours talk time) so I don't know how old the battery is. I have NOT done any battery conditioning. It probably would not hurt. But LiIon batteries are not supposed to need it.

With that said, I did MINIMAL use of the phone today. But after 12 hours on v6Full, I still have 50% battery. That is manageable.

RWaldo,

Tried this first and reflashed... no go for me for some reason. I placed all my ringtones in this folder and it did not populate. I am going to try a few other things... and I like your last idea as well, I was doing that too for a while and decided that I did not like the autoloader because of the frequency and diffences of the ROM's I am changing to and from.

Have a good 4th guys! Thanks again for the help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bennyj71:
On Abu's ROMs, I couldn't get IE to load a page(got tired of waiting). On TPC's, it was better but not up to snuff. As I said, I had radio issue trying to get better battery life. Once I installed radio 1.59.46 (my old radio), IE was flying. As I was about to put Skyfire back on my phone, TPC up'd v5.1. I downloaded it but wasn't able to install all my apps. Yesterday on break, a co-worker asked me to look something up on my phone. Thought I had Skyfire installed but I didn't so I used IE. I was amazed at fast the pages loaded. I scrolled around and it was equal to NetFront. As the video started playing, I was pretty shocked. My buddy didn't notice because he doesn't know anything about WM. I haven't tweak anything other than my radio. I was an Alpha tester for Skyfire, so I had a pretty good frame of reference.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SoberGuy:
Guess I'll have to try that radio then. I can't see it making that much of a difference, in just the speed of IE. I'll give it a shot though. Thanks for the idea!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] twopumpchump:
ie has always been slow for me too, but with this version and 1.70.18.02 radio i could really tell a difference how fast it was compared to before...weird. if you are having battery drain or you want to speed it up a lil try disabling all the chome plugins you dont use ;) that will help in both areas alot. i wont have that many plugins enabled by default in future dont think, but wanted to test them all out with the new chome.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] pjcforpres:
1. What I was saying is that the default of this ROM has all those turned off... if you want better battery life you should change them in the advanced settings to 'on' for all of them, it makes a huge difference.

2-4... Does not apply to you then.

5. While it is true the chemical foundation of the battery doesn't need to be conditioned to the same extent older styles did, the micro chip that reads the battery level and that circuit inside the phone itself does still need to be calibrated correctly. You can reset it's calibration by charging it in the manner I described... And trust me when I say you can still mess up a LiIon battery by not following general charging rules, like waiting to charge until nearly fully discharged, etc. I sell cell phones, and have a steady stream of people that mess up their LiIon batteries by not following simple charging rules, like they don't wait for it to need charging and put it on every day when it hits 50% left... this messes up the battery, and it messes up the micro chip that reads battery levels. Most of these people fix the problem by charging their battery by doing exactly what I said in terms of charging it... then you have others that have to get a new battery because they fried for one reason or another, whether it be using an after market charger running too many volts or amps, or some other stupidity on their part.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bennyj71:
Like I said I haven't put the rest of my apps on the phone because TPC went BUCKWILD:D this week upping roms. I'm about the flash to v6. I use Netfront, UCWeb 6, Opera Mini, Bolt, Opera 9.7 as well. I did manage to install Dashwire and Pandora and they were loading really fast. I have been using only 3G(I guess it's HSDPA) that's it. This radio is the sweet spot for my phone! I was about to give up on 6.5 because I can't run CHome smoothly. I would rather just run 6.1 if I was only going to use Manilla.

Suggestion

Does anyone else have trouble keeping up with all of the posts here? I mean, we are seeing around 50-60 posts per day. I get in trouble with my wife for spending so much time FLASHING - much less keeping up with this thread <grin>.

I know that using the threaded view could help but then, it is very easy to MISS some significant discussions and the Titles are sometimes absent and at other times unrelated to the post.

And using the linear version, it takes a LONG time to read 50-60 posts (especially during the past few days when the XDA servers appear to be overloaded and a refresh takes a minute or so. Also, posting responses on the linear mode allows one to post a reply that may have already been given by someone else but I just have not gotten that far yet.

I confess, I don't understand the hybrid mode. Maybe it works but I don't know how to make it effective and other (new) users will likely not understand it either - read, they will have the same problems I mention in this post.

Could we split this thread into a few others? Suggestion:

1. New thread on M2D issues (I know there is one already but I mean one that is ONLY for M2D issues with the TPC roms)

2. New thread for Titanium/CHome issues (same thinking as #1)

3. New thread for reporting TEST TPC roms (vs. the "released" versions)

4. New thread for battery issues (same as #1)

You get the idea.

This situation will allow a user who does NOT have issues with the battery to avoid all those posts. And, if you only use CHome, you will not be distracted by all of the questions about M2D/Manila... etc.

This thread then would be left to discuss the current released VERSION of the rom and when questions arise about any of the above issues, that poster is referred to the alternate thread. Such a division will allow every user to more quickly find the answers to their questions.

It will also allow TPC and others who have ANSWERS to provide more direct support to the other users.

Finally, if I (or others) want to read ALL the post, they will make more sense since all posts concerning a particular issue will be located together.

My vote is YES. Divide the thread. What do YOU think? If we want to divide things, I will help/lead/follow/whatever one of the threads.

What problems do you encounter with CHome? Curious why yours isn't running smoothly, as mine as always been fine.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SoberGuy:
While I can understand your point, some of the issues, if not a lot, are all pretty closely related. I think the FAQ on the first page is nice, and hopefully it can stay updated to help out with some of these issues. Perhaps what we'll see next is a new thread for the next release, but I'm not sure what Shane is currently planning. The biggest issue, to me, is people coming in and posting questions that have been answered 5 billion times already. Just my .02

IE speed

One thing to check with IE, is to make sure that it is not set to Desktop Mode, which I believe it is by default (not checked this on v6). This will not send the "phone" hint, so you are getting the full web page. It may look nice, but it can be a lot of data. I had some problems with it not always keeping the setting change for this. So I played around like setting it and then exiting and a few other things. It finally stuck at some point.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bennyj71:
For the first couple of ROMs Chome would freeze. I would try to scroll up or down. The slider bar(?) would go half way between two panels and freeze for about two seconds. I went to M2D. After many radio, SPL and ROM changes, it started scrolling but it was no where near as "springy" as the demos. The start menu would freeze every so often. After running M2D on 6.5 for a few roms, I didn't see the point of using this on 6.5. There were faster 6.1 roms with M2D. No shot at any of the cook, but 6.5 is still evolving and being converted to use on our phones. with v5 and now v5.1 with my radio, CHome is springy. I can flick my finger on any page and it scrolls like crazy.

I felt the same way going from 3.29 to 3.34. I followed the simple instructions in the first page. Run JumpSPL on phone, wait for USB, unplug 10 secs, replug, run RUU with 3.34 nbh file. SIM and SD card removed of course. I didn't have to reflash, but then again v6 was available at the same time I flashed to 3.34, so I reflashed anyway :)

Flash SPL by SD Card

I do the SD card flash.

1. Place the selected spl (*****.nbh) file on the root of an SD card.

2. Rename it to kaisimg.nbh

3. Place a copy of the KAISDIAG.nbh file on the root also

4. Press the CAMERA button & insert the sylus until the tricolor appears then let go & follow the instructions.

VERY simple.

Download the DaveShaw 3.34 SPL (and several others) from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=498320

Download KAISDIAG.nbh from here.

BTW, Dave Shaw has the instructions on his page for a couple other (more difficult IMHO) ways to flash the SPL.
