[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mikedomain:
I just want to share my experience and also see if there are others who feel the same. My problem concerns the latest new ROMs, which i installed. For example energyRom, TouchIT Leo III, etc. The installation goes well and then I do all my settings and adjustments. A moment later, the phone dies, usually never wakes up from standby when i press the topButton. This phenomenon may or may not take a long time and will occur at any time.

My idea as it had with my settings to make, eg, regional settings, email configuration or maybe some file(s) on the memory card, because I know that these ROMs works on other phones and i can not read or find about other users having the same problem.

My settings and everyRom installation are:

Operator: Telia

Language: English

E-mail: Exchange Server

Smabergs Swe Hardware keyboard (Can this maybe give some trouble, because i think its made for 6.1?)

Someone else who can share experiences so perhaps I can find the problem?

For troubleshooting i have reflashed the ROM and not doing any settings at all.....and the phone still working.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] tof9:
I get this occasionally. But I've always had these hangs regardless of new or old ROMs.

Basically phone won't respond to any input, the screen stays off but if you open the keyboard it lights up. That's about the only response I can get. I've always shrugged it off and taken out the battery. Hopefully it doesn't happen regularly.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mikedomain:
Ive had this kind of "hangs" to, but the ones i talking about happens several times every day, and the keyboard doesnt light up.

This is where UC should help. Most cooks used UC for WM6.1, and other forms of UC for WM6.5. Just make sure you read their thread carefully.

For me, I put all the setting into a cab (after all, most user config will be store in registry anyway.).
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mikedomain:
When i install a new ROM, i always read the thread for tips and hints, but nobody talking about the problem ive got.

My phone has now been running without any crashes for a couple of hours....maybe i should try to do some settings one after another.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] foxcheng:
Me too, used the energy rom, really polished rom, but hang several times a day...

too bad it hangs during show off to friends XD
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Gwystyl:
I had a similar problem. It turned out that the flatcable between the screen and hardware keyboard wasn't properly connected. I disassembled and reassembled my phone while keeping a video tutorial from youtube on my screen. It worked then! Here's the links to the video's:

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mikedomain:
yes, i´ve been wondering if it could be any hardware-problem, but why would it only be on some ROMs and others not. Thats why i feel pretty sure its not hw-related.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mikedomain:
Its only on 6.5 roms, not 6.1....ive been running smabergs 6.1 rom for weeks, without problem. And as soon as i installed valkyrie, the phone starts to hang. I also noticed some screen-problems, like a lot of stripes across the screen, that makes the content unreadable. And thats the tf3d-content, the taskbar is ok without any graphic-distortion.

But only on 6.5....:confused:

After days of digging all dev forums I'm really lost and angry as hell.

How it can be, that after ~1 year of release there is still no working/stable modules for camera and wifi for my Omnia!!

One of released wifi modules doesn't support even WEP, second one (the one with WPA but still without WEP) disconnects every few minutes...

Camera ... no comments.. as there is nothing to comment.

Subject says it all really.

I can add events to 2 of my calendars. I can view at least 5 calendars.

Can you add events to more than 2 calendars?

Apart from the obvious permission settings within google calendar,

what governs what calendars you can add events to, or edit events?

Thanks

[G1 General] thecolorifix:
I can view and edit all my calendars....

I can view and edit all my calendars in the Android Calendar. I can also view and edit another calendar which I shared with myself. It all works flawlessly for me on Cyanogen 3.9.7

I am able to view/edit all active calendars w/ the stock widget. I'm currently using about a dozen calendars shared across 4 accounts.
[G1 General] Dirky:
Hmm, that is a puzzle why I can only add/edit 2 calendars but I have permissions for 4.

I have a friend who has a new HTC Hero and he has very similar symptoms.

I had a digital clock in my systembar or whatever you call the field where battery, network and the like is housed. Now my nice digital clock turned into a barley readable analogue clock.

I have checked my manual, browsed the settings and tried Google and XDA-forums. I haven't had much success, partly due to the many hits for a analogue homescreen clock.

So if anyone could help my out and get my digital clock back, I would be very grateful - thanks in advance :D

Hello,

I would like to keep the maximum amount of RAM memory free for device use. If I install all my applications on an MicroSD card, (thus keeping the device's RAM clear), will this optimize performance?

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
You can't install apps into RAM. You have 3 types of memory on your device and you seem to be mixing them up and causing confusion.

1. Program memory - this is RAM.

2. Storage memory - this is flash based memory on your device. The ROM is stored here.

3. SD card - self explanatory.

For best performance, you should install everything into program memory.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sakshaug007:
Don't you mean storage memory (i.e. ROM)?

You can't install programs in RAM. Program information is stored in RAM when the application is running thats the only time RAM is used. Therefore to conserve RAM make sure you close any active programs after using them. You could disable TouchFlo 3D and get a big chunk of RAM back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Poke_N_PDA:
On my Mogul I run a program called "Oxios Hibernate" that helps free up RAM from the crap that grabs it as it stays on over time. It helps a lot, but I still need reboots. On the TP2, it would probably work wonderfully.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mail_e36:
Thanks for the reply, but the answer is still unclear.

Where should I install applications for best device performance?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] anarianthe:
Well, you can't install a programm onto the RAM. The RAM is used when you load a programm.

For example, imagine that you install a programm named "Text Editor". You can choose to install it on phone memory (Storage Memory) or on the SD card.

That does not uses RAM. But when you launch (use) the programm, then you use some RAM to launch it. Well, and then, when you close the programm, it does free the RAM used to launch it (or should be).

It's the same in a computer: you can install a game, which require some hard disk space. But to launch the game, you will generaly need some RAM.

So, you can choose to install a programm on SD card or on storage memory. The difference is that, when you want to launch the programm, access will be a little faster on storage memory than on SD card. But once the programm is launched, there isn't any difference any more.

Well, now, to keep RAM, you just need to minimise the programms runnings (for example, installing a screensaver will uses some RAM, as this programm will always be loaded). To do so:

- Don't install to many programms that keeps running all the time (like S2P)

- You can tweak your system and choose not to launch some services (like direct push, which uses 10MB RAM)

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not an expert.

And sorry for my poor english :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mail_e36:
Thanks for the detailed explanation, but the question is still open. To make sure we are on the same wave, the device has:

ROM - 512 MB

RAM - 288 (including 32 MB in the 'baseband' according to specs, whatever that is)

SD Slot - Storage up to 32 GB with a Micro SD card I would add

With this information, where should I install applications for best performance? It seems the 512 MB ROM is probably read-only (the operating system should sit here). So if I do not have an SD card, am I forced to install applications in the RAM? I assume I cannot install my applications in the ROM ("Read Only Memory"). My understanding is that the RAM should be kept as clear as possible to allow good performance, and thus programs should not be installed in it? What exactly is meant by "storage memory", the RAM or the ROM?

I am very familiar with PC concepts, but this one has confused me.

Thank you in advance
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jayr04:
ROM is like your hard drive on your computer. Also the hard drive on a phone. You can't install anything on your ram.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vardig:
You install it on your SD card !! :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mail_e36:
So it looks like the ROM in this device isn't actually Read Only Memory like one would think?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
Isn't it ROM, as in meaning it's non-volatile. i.e. if your battery dies, you are not going to loose what's stored in it...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fraser:
Here's how I do things:

Essential utils like task managers, anything that runs in the background etc, MUST go onto the phone and not a card.

Anything I'd want to have regardless of the SD card inserted also goes on the phone. Media players and so on.

Games and large apps go on the SD where possible.

I also have another class: "apps that don't need installed". Some apps you can copy the install directory and just run the exe after a hard-reset. Only works with one that don't modify the registry much. I've figured out which ones of mine work OK and they sit on a special folder on the SD with shortcuts also set up on the SD card. Just copy the shortcuts into the Start Menu after a hard reset and you are set. :cool:

However, the TP2 has a huge internal storage area compared to my previous WM phones. Running out isn't going to be an issue.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
Haha, you're right! I guess I got confused myself as well!

Anyway, install everything into storage memory!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gunggu:
it is ROM,

there are several tyopes of ROM. the ROM we are talking about is EEPROM (can be erased and programmed electrically - using software) or some say EEPROM is Flash Memory.

so,

ROM in the device is Read Only Memory (non volatile)

your SD CARD is also a type of ROM (flash memory) but an external one. So, ROM is basically where you store your data permanently and RAM only temporer when that data is in use (open, edited, etc).

Thank you to everyone who responded to my post, you were a lot of help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] matttytn2:
it seems these phones dont actually follow the traditional fetch decode execute cycle that a computer does. instead of a hdd there is a eeprom or flash chip in the phone.. the rest of the cycle seems the same. it will be quicker running things from the device as appose to the storage card as the "busses" are faster however if you have loads of apps open yes device will slow down as the ram will be full everything thats happening goes in to the ram before it goes in to the cpu to be crunched. so you can fill your device with apps and it will nto make it slower, it will only be slower if you leave everything running using up all the ram. sorry naff reply lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] matttytn2:
and use cleanRAm by htc adics its great!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
ROM isn't the correct term to use anymore (it was back before WM5 where the ROM really WAS read only) (unless you were flashing) but is still used anyways. It is a flash chip that has partitions. After the OS and radio and everything is stored in, one more partition is made with all the space left over and that is where you install programs and save things to. RAM is never used to install programs (it was before WM5, but no longer).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] EagleEyeMCG:
use HtcAddicts cleanRam - is works verry well
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ivwonka:
Nice post. thanks for the file. So if you want to compare your phone's hardware to the equal function of hardware on your PC: ROM is like your internal hard drive; RAM is like your memory; and the storage card is like an external hard drive. Though keep in mind they really aren't the same, just performing comparative functions.

So if you want your phone to respond more quickly, you want as much free RAM as possible. The open applications and all the processes that are running are in the RAM. Limit those and your phone will respond better (by closing unused applications, running the previously mentioned program, etc.). How full your ROM or your storage card are do not effect performance (to my knowledge). However, applications installed on your ROM will be accessed more quickly than if installed on the storage card. So install all the programs you want on the ROM, there should be plenty of space. Put all your big files like pics and music on the storage card.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] crazy talk:
question.

my "storage" reads

285.19 total

98.65 in use

186.54 free

my "program" reads

Total: 188.21

In Use: 115.18

Free: 73.09

this is in Touchflo if i click the memory icon in the top right. should it not say 288 total for my Program?

next thing, if i go to "device information" it lists total ram as 256, shouldnt the total ram and program memory match?

the only idea i have is the amount of ram Touchflo consumes is not part of what you see when you select "program memory" and only what is left over.

sorry, i'm relatively new at this. :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
those are the "available to user" amounts. They don't take into account the ram or rom set aside by the by the cell (like where the OS is stored).

The 256MB is a glitch, there's a patch for it, and it doesn't really affect you. Supposedly your phone can still access the missing 32MB though it won't detect it for the purpose of displaying system info.

Oh, ivwonka, what you say is correct, except that RAM is basically the same in the phone as on a computer (the other ones do vary from HDDs, though SSD's would basically be the same)

resize ram?

I have for a week now been looking for a way to (like back then before wm6) change the size (partition) of my program ram taking if necessary from my storage memory. I remember that this was no problem for the magician.

any ideas?????
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
If you mean the slider that let you choose how much memory you wanted for RAM as opposed to storage, that's long gone. The only reason that was possible back then was because the devices had different hardware back then. Back then, there was only one kind of memory in the device: Volatile memory. This type of memory loses all data when a power supply is completely cut off, but it's faster to write to. When Windows Mobile devices used only one kind of memory, it was easy to change the RAM partition vs the storage partition on the fly, but nowadays, Windows Mobile devices are configured like this:

1. (Non volatile) Internal NAND Flash Memory chip with many partitions. As there are many different partitions and it can get a bit complicated, I'll simplify it a lot. Basically, some of the internal flash memory can't be overwritten easily, because it contains important OS files, the bootloader, and lots of very important loaders and whatnot. Then, there's a part where you can write to, and you can install programs, save documents, etc.

2. (Volatile) The internal RAM which is volatile, for the sake of simplicity in this explanation, there aren't many partitions. This memory is different from the flash memory above on a hardware level, and they aren't interchangeable. A combination of hardware incompatibility and lack of OS support means that this can't be resized on the fly, like back then.

The short answer is that it's not possible on later than WM 2003 for many reasons, but on a device like this it's not really necessary at all.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jinx1:
thanks dave

I did not realize that the internal structure now contained different ic's or an ic internally divided into non- and volitile memory. it was my assumption that the tp2 would have one partitioned (hd) for rom, storage, and ram. thanks for enlightening me all though that was the exact thing i didnt want to find out;-) I guess i will have to keep on using ramclean and maybe revert back to titanium or mobile shell.

As for the PC connection open settings in the start menu, choose connections, choose usb to PC, make sur that the ActiveSync button is checked, and you may want to disable the enable advance network funtionallity, and see if that does not solve the problem.

I've searched for related topics, but none are quite on point.

The following works for XP, but not for Vista, and I cannot figure out why.

(Note: I have the unlimited data plan, please use with caution if

you do not have the plan).

I am using AT&T as my carrier.

Using CeRegEditor, I performed the following on my Motorola Q 9h global device running WM 6.1, USB connector is connected from phone to PC:

1) changed HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\Settings = "ForceCellConnection"

to "" and rebooted

2) In HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4...}\Connections,

changed ATT ICS and MEdia Net "ReadOnly" value from 1 to 0

On the phone itself, I then selected Start->Settings->Internet Sharing:

PC Connection = USB

Network Connection = MEdia Net

After issuing "Connect" on the phone, I have internet access when the phone

is connected via USB cable to the Windows XP PC, but not when connected via USB cable to the Vista PC.

====

I have tried Bluetooth instead of USB when connecting to Vista, to no avail.

I have tried to obtain a new IP address for the USB connection, to no avail.

I disabled Norton firewall, to no avail.

I disabled the wireless card I installed last year when my internet

connection was DSL with a wireless access point, to no avail.

The phone connects ("syncs") fine with both PCs. On XP, the application is called 'Microsoft ActiveSync', and on Vista, 'Windows Mobile Device Center'.

I appreciate any advice you have.
[Networking] duckyman:
It should work. I am using Vista SP1 and a WM 6.1 cooked HP 614c. Even managed to use the data connection in a virtual machine running on the same system. As soon as you hit ´Connect´ the sync session gets disconnection (status in Device Center is disconnected). Then Vista should detect a new connection called Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device. When running it for the first time, a driver will be installed. After that it detects a new network which you can setup using the Network Center. Did this happen in your case?
[Networking] jjgillis:
Hey duckyman, thanks for responding. I do see the 'Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device' on the Network and Sharing center, but the connection is listed as 'local'.

I did notice that once you hit 'connect' on the phone that the WM Device Center application on the PC lists the connection as no longer connected.

This is normal behavior, however, as the same thing happens on Win Xp with the corresponding 'Active Sync' application, and the XP connection works for me.

I think the problem is with Vista. I will try one more time with Bluetooth instead, I noticed that under 'Bluetooth Settinngs' on the phone that though I had enable bluetooth, I did not check the box "Allow other Bluetooth devices to see this phone".
