[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Back on work, so now i have time to play with phone again :)

Flashed stock uspl to phone and now i have thata blurry green screen om my danish ship rom..
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Flashed Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex to my ship danish rom.. Still green blurry screen and phone thats not responding
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Now i have flashed newest rom from kmbr, but still have blurry green screen...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
blurry green screen is usually an issue due to not using correct HSPL or not using USPL

What does your SPL say?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
spl 1.14 =linex

in progress of installing rom i now got an error:

Install

\windows\trakt_signed.CAB

failed.code=0x80004005
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Newest kwbr's rom is based on 1.56+ so you would need to use HSPL 1.56. You currently have HSPL 1.14 installed on device
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
yes ofcourse, now i have that uspl, so trying to load newes kwbr again now.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
and now its back to hard resetting every time it restarts after loading rom
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
LOL, man you aren't having much luck are ya!!!

So with correct procedure using USPL your phone keeps rebooting. Not sure what else for you to try :confused: Anyone?

Could always return it under warranty and get a replacement
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
returning it for what?

Cant flash cooked rom ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
I am now on Hspl 0linex 1.56 and ship danish rom.

Could any1 make me a quick guide what exactly to do to get to stock, and from there to cooked rom.

I think i have tryed everything, but maybe i could have done something wrong in the process.

All help is appriciated and i am willing to send it to some1 to see if they can fix it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Very good point....LMAO.

ok, so returning is not an option unless you accidentily drop it or something.....not that I'm recommending this!!

So only option is to find you a solution.

To recap:

1. Stock rom's work properly...yes?

2. After following correct procedure using USPL and HSPL you get either SPL 1.56.OliNex or SPL v 1.15.USPL before flashing cooked rom......yes?

3. You have successfully downloaded correct cooked rom fully from reliable source....yes?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
1 - yes

2 Yes i believe i have done everything correct, but maybe a small - for my situation - guide

3 yes i have correct rom from correct source
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Best and easiest way to explain USPL method would be to read this as it is already summarized very well by my good mate cRaCKwHoRe.

But it sounds like you are following this correct. Try again and post your SPL after each step so I can follow you. Unfortunately I'm at work so camn't use MSN or AIM etc.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
@ Megawhopp -

If you have MSN or AIM, PM me your screen name and let's see if we can get this resolved :)

Edit: ... and after reading through this thread the only thing I can think of is that some step is being overlooked, or you are flashing bad roms... but since you've tried several different custom roms that kind of rules out that idea.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
@ Megawhopp - I asked cRaCKwHoRe to chip in as I was stuck on what else it could be bar your not following all steps in procedure, which you seem to be doing!! :confused:

EDIT

I see cRaCKwHoRe has already chipped in.....LOL
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
With our powers combined - we are XDA! Ok that was dorky... but we will get you sorted out buddy!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Ah, yes!!! Taxi for one!!! LOL

But yes, we'll get it sorted
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Thx,

You guys are the best..

i will pm msn to Crack :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
So were do we stand? I'm assuming cRaCKwHoRe and you are engaged in discussion using PM?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Sent him an MSN invite. Will keep you posted as to what we can figure out.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Seems we have it figured out. Not sure what happened or why it all of a sudden started working... but all we did was:

1. Turn off the phone

2. Put it in the bootloader

3. Re-flashed the custom rom

4. Immediately unplug USB cable and yank battery after 100% flash

5. Immediate hard reset via phone buttons

Voila... weird thing is Megawhopp had done the same process several times. Who knows??? :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Seems that my phone is back alive.

Thx to all who has been so kind to help me
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Glad you got it working again.....strange solution though as this had been tried before...hmmm:confused:

Anyway, at least its back in order!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Im bringing this thread back to live.

Im experiencing exackt same problem again now.

Tryed the thing that helped last time but doesnt work.

I have been trying to contact crackwhore on msn, but so far without any luck.

So if any1 else would be so kind to help, i would be so very happy.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
no1?

need help
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cliophate:
It seems that your phone restarts before finishing the customization progress. That's why it starts all over again. If you set it up and softreset it before the customization progress finishes the same thing will happen.

Can you make a picture of your Bootloader please?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
If this is indeed what the problem is, then I'm having the exact same rebooting problem, and can't figure it out.

I'm becoming more and more convinced that it's a hardware fault though :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cvchetan:
do a hard reset, flash another rom and verify if the same reset prob continues..

som roms hv the prob of this reset thing
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
As I stated in the thread I linked to, I've confirmed this issue on 2 6.5 ROMs
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
i have tryed both 6.5 roms and 6.1 roms

The same problem with em all

original danish rom - No problem
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
So you have tried various roms with similar results. Each keeps hard resetting after flashing rom.

Only possibilities I can think of is that something has gone wrong with flashing preocess before you started to flash roms, i.e. either from USPL or HSPL

If it isn't this, then probably something wrong with phone and a warranty return may be only option. Are you able to restore original SPL and stock rom?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] baradhan:
hi

i HAVE O2 xda oRBIT, i mafacing a problem with it now, when i start the phone the windows is booting and the volume control come ups and then the phone hangs, i tried reseting and tried by removing batery nothing helped me.

can any one help me on this please.

thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
right now i am on spl 1.56 0linex and ship danish rom and working fine.

i have tryed with stock uspl before and this is also working fine
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
So shipped rom, HSPL and USPL are all working fine, but when you flash to a cooked rom, phone continues to reset after flashing.....correct?

Sh*t one!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
yes correct
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
The strange thing is you said that it used to work fine, so I'm a little confused as to why its not now. I'll ask a few mates and see what they think and post back later
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Ok, I talked to a few mates (including cRaCKwHoRe, so no need to PM him), but unfortunately we all came to the same conclusion. We have no idea how to fix it.

All I can suggest is you try returning phone under warranty and possibly state something else is wrong with phone like motherboard or something and hopefully HTC will fix issue for you.

Unless somebody else has solution mate, we're stumped!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
:( Thanks for looking into it Spartan
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Ok, thanks for looking into it. Last time i talked to crack, he mentioned something about going deeper into phone, not just hard reset software, but kindda hard reset deeper. no idea how, i just remember him saying it could be a possibility.

So any1 has any idea on how to do this?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Not 100% sure what he is referring to. You may need to ask him again. Maybe he talking about a complete format of phone which is very risky and not to be done unless you know what your doing.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Yes, i think that was what he meant.

I have tried to contact him several times, but so far with no luck
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
He's a busy guy at the min with work so I doubt he's ignoring you. Give it time and maybe wait till he's next online. I wouldn't innodate him with PM's
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RacerII:
I got a similar problem , except mine keeps soft resetting when using duttys 6.5 R4.

Hope someone can help.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fastie:
OK 1 more idea!

1. make sure u have newest HARDSPL

2. REMOVE memory card from the phone

3. connect phone to another USB port in Your PC

4. run flashing tool

5. do not put memory card until phone reboots and set up everything, might be some problem with the card itself

GOOD LUCK M8
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Ok, i´ll try to be patient - But isnt easy - stock rom gives me the creeps :)

I have tryed without mem card, and its the same.. :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Very peculiar problem as it appears to be only present on Throy's R4. One method would be to stop the automatic screen off after a period of time so problem couldn't materialise. Strange that it only happens on this rom though. I take it you are using either USPL or HSPL when you flash between roms?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RacerII:
Yup latest hspl.

I could try to flash a stock rom first and then flash R4.

I remember this was a solution on some bugs back in my trinity days.

Edit: update!

Ok so i removed my sim and sd card , flashed a stock rom and restored stock spl.

Flashed hardspl and duttys 6.5 R4 , and it seemed to work fine!

BUT

I powered my device down and inserted my sim and sd card ... powered up device and connection set up came up.

while importing sim contacts the device rebooted by itself ..... crap.

So i thought it may be my sim card , so removed sim and the problem was still there. (rebooting when the backlight should turn off)

Only one thing left i could try , and that was to remove my sd card .... and it worked.

Inserted sim card , connection setup worked fine so i reformatted my sd card and reinserted in to my hd.

So far its still working fine , automatic backlight power off works now and no more soft reboots until now.

Fingers crossed.

Seems like a corrupt sd card can cause weird things.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
Just tryed to flash newest miri manila 2.5 rom

It hardly customized, maybe for like 1 second.

So the theory brought up here that it doesnt customize finish, might be a good theory.

But how to help it?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
OK, phone is dead now.. I have at this monent SPL 1.14

Can not flash anything to it and can not load it up

i am willing to send it to someone for fixing, or if any1 would help over msn it would be great.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
Have you tried booting it with no memory card installed?

yes i have tryed that. no luck
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
please some1 with good ideas or anything at all.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ardsar:
you need to send it back under warranty. Had exactly the same problem, and they replaced the main board. If it doesn't start at all i.e will not go into bootloader, i doubt you will need to worry about what you have got flashed in rom......
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
it goes to bootloader, but cant seem to flash anything atm

i will like to get it to stock, and have stock spl right now, but stock rom wont flash.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Sorry man I've been busy with work and my personal life. Haven't been home much or on the PC at all. Have you tried doing a task 28 with mtty to format the onboard flash memory? After that completes successfully try flashing a new rom. If it doesn't complete then something is wrong with your onboard flash memory.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
No, have not tryed that, and have absolutely no idea on how to do it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
1. Download mtty.

2. Put phone in bootloader.

3. Connect phone via USB to computer.

4. Run mtty.

5. Connect mtty via USB.

6. Enter command "task 28" without quotes and wait for response.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mightbme:

This happened to my Tytn when I tried going from WM6.0 to 6.1....I never could get it happening so I went back to 6.0.....maybe it's the same type of problem.

@ Megawhopp - Alright mate, I see cRaCKwHoRe has returned from the abyss and has offered a suggestion. Any joy?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Very good mate. Glad to see you back!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
I read somewhere that this behaviour (as well as the soft-reboots that I'm experiencing) *could* be caused by the radio settings

Setting them to use a dedicated channel instead of "auto" is a suggested fix (I haven't tried yet)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Let us know when you've tried this and whether or not it helped
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
I've just done it - I'll wait a few days and see how it goes

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Megawhopp:
I managed, this tuesday, to get phone flashed to both stock rom and stock spl.

Went straigh to to service with my handset and told them i had a problem with phone hard resetting it self when it lhad drained the battery or when it was shut down. This actually happened even on ship rom.

next day i got an sms that my handset was ready and fixed. I went to the store, and dadaaaaaa they had updated the software :eek::eek::eek::eek::confused::confused::confused:

My face go totally red, close to exploding, but i got a hang on my self, and asked if he actually thought that a software update would fix my problem.. Dont know he said, but you can try... NO i will not try, i wanna talk to the guy who has fixed it.. He came to the desk, and told me same story, that this would most definately help my problem. NO i dont think it will i said. And got him comvinced to change the main board. He changed it in 10 minutes. I got new main board with new imei.

Went home very exicited, cuz now its flashing time..

Everything went smooth, and i am now on 2.7 Topix without any problems.

Thanks to all who has been helpfull here.

Damn a long story for such a small announcement :):p;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
So, absolutely no soft resets at all, until just now, after my phone has been sitting on a charging dock station for an hour or 2.

This is starting to look like an overheating thing...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Whats your situation at present. Was this just a one off reset or is it working again?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daniel.hunt:
The phone was on the docking station for about 2 hours, before it started to (soft) reset itself - after 3 resets I cursed loudly and removed the battery. That solution tends to work every single time.

At the moment it's sitting in front of me with no battery in it :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
and this only started to occur after you charged phone.

Let it cool down, and try re-inserting battery. What did you do last time that fixed issue?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loukas1:
I'm facing lots of dificulties to use the built-in acceleromenter in the Diamond2, this is my first device with an accelerometer, so, might be my fault.

I found the utility most convinient to write emails or sms, but when I'm reading, the screen turns landscape all of a sudden with a brief movement when I want it portrait and when I want landscape for writting, not always turns, it's not very responsive and unreliable.

is this normal? is there a way to fix behaviour so always read in portrait mode and write in landscape?

thx
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kl408:
Maybe a little too easy BUT: did you calibrate the G-sensor???
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loukas1:
:) yes I did
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkai:
imho it is not the g-sensor that is not reliable, it is just that going from portrait to landscape is very slow on the TD2, and depend on application and free memory: it can go from slow to extremely slow to more or less crashing TouchFlo3D. I think it is software related, and may be corrected in the future by rom updates or cooked roms...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loukas1:
good to know is not my device, and that I can expect improvement with next roms

thx
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rling:
Not sure if having it more sensitive or responsive would be a plus. You could get the screen switching back and forth with just minor movements and that will definitely impede functionality.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munrobasher:
Yes, I think this is the problem. Because the device is running Windows at heart, I suspect that it's using virtual memory in the same way as a PC. When you tilt, it suddently needs to swap some task out, get some new code and execute it - and this operation isn't quick.

I read somewhere that the iPhone is gaining the ability to run more than one task at once. I never realised it couldn't do this - get a real operating system ;-) But I suppose the advantage it does bring is that the one task that can run can do so with full system resources. Swings and roundabouts.

Just a guess...

Cheers, Rob.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HandySpanner:
Whilst it's called Windows, there's very little if any shared codebase between Windows CE and desktop Windows. It runs on a different CPU instruction set, with very different requirements and restrictions. AFAIAA, there's no virtual memory system like there is on real windows, processes get told to shutdown when there is a memory shortage. Personally I suspect the reason for the delay is that when you change the rotation you also effectively change the resolution (since it's not a square screen), and Opera has to reposition all of its controls and menus etc.. which takes a second or so.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munrobasher:
Windows mobile certainly does have virtual memory:

Cheers, Rob.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HandySpanner:
My apologies, when the OP referred to "swapping a task out", I thought he was referring to program or user data being written out to a page file on disk which AIUI doesn't happen in CE. Sure each process has a virtual address space and binaries are dragged in and released but that's not what I thought he was referring to... maybe he was so apologies again. Interesting articles though.. I need to read them and refresh when I get the time...!

[Touch HD Accessories] Nightcookie:
Folks,

does anyone know a cradle or docking station with built-in speaker that can be used with the Touch HD?

I really like my Touch HD, but I'm green with envy any time I see the plenty and great audio accessories for the iPhone. Things could be so easy - plug the device in and enjoy your music. But alas, the market for audio accessories seems to have waned since the times of the older devices (1, 2 etc.).

I've seen some all-round portable speakers, but most of them are crappy both in build and audio quality. What I'm looking for is a proper speaker system to enjoy music in the living room or kitchen, ideally tailor-made for the HD. Hardware audio controls would be ideal, but with the simple 3.5mm plug, that is not to be ...

Ideas, anyone?

Ta,

and i can say i'm loving it...the sound is great for such a small speaker and it can go for about 8 hours without being charged...

my only wish now is that a buy a never model that features 2 speakers :-)
