[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] true2you:
my english isn't that bad i guess, but i'm having a problem using your roms.. the problem is that my hardware keyboard is (french) AZERTY, and your rom is in english... so my question is (if anyone could help i'd say.. i mean omg been looking for something i could do to arrange this for several months and I still haven't found any solution to this) :

-- is there a way to make the buttons correspond to the french symbols of my device (with a driver or something)

-- is there a way to change my onscreen keyboard (from QWERTY to AZERTY)

sorry to ask those things here, but i have tried like 15 roms since july and really, THIS ONE IS THE BEST TP2 ROM EVER

ARK, Im still having dead screen issues on the 21892 release from 14th Feb, I have hard reset and soft reset so many times, i have tried not to let the memory fill all the way and all sorts, you said it may be an issue with automatic lock programs, could this be true of s2u2? I currently use that as it is the most reliable locking program out there. Do i need to change any of the deafault settings on s2u2 to make it more compatible?

Also do you think that there is any chances of the dead screen issues arising in the new releases you have scheduled for today/tomorrow??

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] petzku:
Hi.

I changed from lockdevice to s2u2 2.30 and not having the deadscreen issue anymore :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
hmm, well i never had the deadscreen issue on any of the older releases, i didnt have it on the 23529 release, but i switched back to the 21892 release for more stability. It is a htc unbranded touch pro 2, I flashed the stock rom off of the HTC website first, then I flashed this rom, I then hard reset and installed all my stuff, s2u2 is installed with the autoinstall so is installed straight away. And i do get the deadscreen issue, i go to press the power button and it doesnt respond,

This is not good as it echoes a hardware issue which has haunted me on htc's, this is why i got rid of the polaris and artemis. But it mentions that it is build related so im not hugely worried yet. I couldnt bare to seperate with this gorgeous phone. Hope it is all made OK, also this rom is amazing apart from it. So fast! I thought the last few releases were good. but this is amazing!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dvet:
same here - as son as I upgraded S2U2 to the most current version, all problems went away
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dvet:
This is always going to be a compromise between tastes of the chef and those of general public...on the other hand, once there is sashimi, there is no need to cook it all in - does sashimi allow apps to be installed on storage card?

How does it work with memory anyways? Back then it was possible to shift between "storage" and "applications" - is it possible to do that now? I am not short of "storage" (16GB on card seems to be enough), but I am short on "applications" ... my Rhodium slows down as memory decreases and there is unused stoage at the same time - is there some solution to this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
If he does this then I hope it's a separate version because I can't stand the WM or 2.1 messaging client. I do wish the newest HTC messaging client was faster though.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwill:
Definitely think it's related to automatic locking apps and the settings used. I'm using 23534 now and never had the issue. But, I started using lockscreen 2.0 E and tried 2.0 F and still the same result. So, I tried 1.9 B and set only the "Lock when suspended" option and I have no more deadscreen issues. I thinks its a problem with the way it wakes the phone up after suspend or puts it to sleep when suspended. Either way, I don't think its the roms, like you all said.:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ScubaSteve20001:
1) Yes you can use SASHIMI to install apps directly to the storage card. I installed the SASHIMI app itself to the storage card. You only ever have to do that once. Then once you do this it just sets up a directory tree on the storage card that are labeled for things like auto installation of cabs to the device or storage card, install registry scripts, mort scripts, etc. You just add your cabs or other files to the appropriate directory, then once you hard reset or re-flash you just run SASHIMI from the storage card and it takes care of everything. So it makes for a nice universal setup utility.

2) Ever since Windows Mobile 5 they have separated the storage memory and the application memory since it REQUIRES a nonvolatile portion of memory for the storage memory. Previously (PocketPC 2003) and prior I believe, they used the same pool of volatile memory (similar to RAM in a PC) that you could adjust for storage memory or application memory. However the problem with that was that when your the main battery died (in addition to the backup), it would basically wipe (hard reset) the device. So they just made it mandatory for every device to have (slower) non-volatile storage in addition to application memory. The trade-off though was that we got more storage, persistent memory, better battery life, however, device performance/responsiveness was reduced b/c of the slower storage memory.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
Well i am on 2.30 and am experienceing the occasional deadscreen, going to mess about with some of the advanced settings on s2u2 and see how it goes for a while.

Yeah, im pretty sure its some dodgy incosistent MS coding to be honest, or something along these lines. Will be seriously gutted if it ends up being my 3rd phone to have power managment hardware issues! But i doubt its that :)

PS. As an update, i have tried switching the do not suspend power setting in the advanced section of s2u2 on, and i would seem that as i have just this second pulled my phone out to check what that option is really called that i have the deadscreen issue! BALLS!!!!

Rhodium_af_rc_21891

I just wanted to point out to the newer guys that the build 6/2/10 RC 21891 is the most stable rom i have ever used on my TP2 if you havent tried it look for it... I have no issues with this build whatsoever and it is stable and fast. some of the newer builds still arent quite there but i have flashed them just to make sure...

Thanks ARK
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] El Nino1977:
darkelf_00101 - I totally agree, this was the Topaz Based ROM and its the best ROM i have seen on a Rhodium. And ive tried them all.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cyber weesje:
hi whel i have used both new builds whit no deadscreen isseus at al fast stable no need for me to be on old build most isseus are created by apps you install
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] LocDogg:
I cannot understand why there is the issue with the dead screen but I can tell u from my own experience that if u flash first to the official ROM n than to any other ROM there will b less problems with ur device...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
I tried that - it didn't work for me and I still got dead screens :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] LocDogg:
hmmm...I read a lot in forums n pimp my phone a lot as well but cannot figure out why a lot of people have problems that I never encountered :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ctbear:
What lockscreen program are you using?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MRFERRARI23:
Any new info on when the newest roms by Ark will be released, I know he said Mon-Tues but just curious.. also it would be nice if we were able to get that new htc lock screen thats been seen on the htc hd mini!!

Hey Ark just as an added touch, I think you should add the android taskbar to the roms if it works out and doesnt cause any probs...whatcha think??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wigwam357:
Same here. Kept missing calls because of it. Ended up reflashing older ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MRFERRARI23:
in using Arks rom from feb 11th wm6.5.5 23529 and ive never once had that black screen issue!!! Well lets hope the roms hes supposed to be releasing tomorrow are great like his work usually is!! :D maybe all issues will be resolved and we can all be happy again lol...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dwbchen:
quoted from the thread on official WM6.5 ROM......

I am also experiencing this problem with the AF ROM. Ark666, do you know of a fix for this?

Many thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dvet:
Thanks for very good explanation, Steve.

To Ark: While cooking ROM, is it possible to change the apps/storage ratio? Could you do something to increase thiratio in favor of apps? I got heaps of storage on my card, I need more for apps...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
Well the problem only seems to haunt the 21892 buid, and just that build it would seem, but I have no doubt that ARK will pump out yet more beautiful work, he always does!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] markdunson:
I have posted this issue before, but will post again as my dead screen issue still persists and it was blown off beforer. I am running the latest version of AF 23529, have hard reset after installation. I have only installed the ATT keyboard app, the ark hexagon 4 row start, and the x2 task manager. I am getting periodic dead screens when the phone goes to sleep. The upper left light is flashing, so the phone is on, but when the power button is pressed, nothing. Removing the battery cover and soft reset solves the problem. But, this happens about 4 times per day. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
You say you have it with the 235** builds, thats interesting, I didnt realise anyone had experienced it on these bulds, I tried the current 23529 AF release and didnt experince the deadscreen, whereas when I went back to 21892 i did. I switched because i just dont like the inbalanced bulky look the soft keys have, i like just text and a reasonable sized task bar.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dejeanj:
same here

Using the 235** build and same problem. Wich pb I never had before with ark's roms.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sbbass00:
23529 Stuck in sleep mode

Same here with 235... Periodic freezes in sleep mode. Caused my alarm to not sound this am. Same with radio listed in signature and recommended radio.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] TorbenKB:
Nope! I've had 3-4 black, locked screens with the 23529 build of Febr.13th. Hope Ark can get it fixed.

Btw, I liked the "Android SE" only it had a few graphical glitches, like everything I'd write in a SMS would be black text on a black background. :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] shootydogthing:
AFAIK the Rhodium doesn't have one...

Also, what's the surprise?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ark666:
Nothing much to it, as to other HTC apps, just the challenge of making these apps work on our devices.

Cheers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sancho1234:
Ark,

I can't download it! The downloading is crash at 5-8 MB. Please, upload to rapidshare or other! Thank you!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ark666:
Sorry my friend, we´re getting a lot of traffic, due to the official Topaz WM65 rom, i´ll upload it somewhere and let you know.

Cheers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sdfzhsd:
hey, so will this work for the rhodium or not?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ark666:
:confused::confused::confused:

This is a Rhodium costum rom.

Cheers
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sancho1234:
I can download noew. Thank you! :)

Thank you the Button setting!!! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] davidebeatrice:
sorry but I dont understand...

you are talking about a new version or the RHODIUM_AF_MAN25_V6 is the last?...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sancho1234:
Yes, I was able to download the file yet. I tried three Internet access... :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] NoMoNada:
Hello Ark666,

I may be a pain to you but i can't help thinking your update listing is the same:confused:

Because I have your v5A good working(still some graphic slowness) i want to make sure you made the updates I hoped you did.

Like the latest graphics updates and the windows live.

And maybe some software added.

So in short I like a more detailed list.;)

It is your ROM so you can deal with this in your own way.:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ark666:
Hi, tested coreplayer on this one, and it´s working fine, no slowness, Wlive is fine, all the rest is working just great, updated some important drivers for HQ video playing.

It´s better for you to test it, and if some prog. you use don´t work the way you expect to, sen it to me by PM, and i´ll test it.

Cheers.

Dear Ark,

I like it:

Selecting Text on the HTC HD2

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dug_bondo:
Rapidshare link?

Ark,

Is there any way to add another d/l link? The htcpedia d/l isn't working.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] atomixpaintball:
The HTC Messaging Client is super slow and causes the whole ROM to freeze. Everything else on this ROM is great, but the new messaging client is horrible, or at least not yet fully ported for the Rhodium.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ark666:
Text selection tool is already included, from a long time ago. :confused::confused:

Hi, though this HTC Messaging app is RC, i found this version to be the most stable and fast to date, no such bugs were reported or found on my testing, check your installed apps, i suggest you do the backup using MS Myphone, PimBackup might cause this.

Cheers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] tedoss:
best 2.5 rom

hi ark,

i would like to say thank you for suck a great rom, evth works gr8, no bugs so far.. best 2.5 rom uve used and ive tried them all..

1 question though, could u pleeeaaase provide a cab for the lockscreen graphics that come with the official rhodium 6.5 rom, i kinda like them better than the ones you have cooked in this rom..

again thank u for such a gr8 job
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ark666:
Check second post.

Cheers. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michaelra:
Yeah I have it freezes every now and then, compared to your ROM version before. I did use PimBackup to restore my profiles etc. Not sure why PimBackup can cause this to happen, but I'll do another "format" + restore with myphone then
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] tedoss:
Thank you !!

Thank you so much ark666 for your response, i really appreciate it. However, what i was looking for is the icons of the lockscree (i mean the original icons of the lock, calendar, missed calls, messages, emails) that origanlly come with the rhodium 6.5 rom from htc.. Maybe i couldn't explain myself earlier, my bad..

I would be gratefull if you could provide a cab for changing the icons.. Thank you sooo much..

Ahh, and i have to tell you man, your rom is the only 2.5 rom ive actually decided to keep and use for daily usage.. Soo again,, thaaank you for such a gr8 job ;-))

take care !!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michaelra:
Does anyone experience any occasional freezes to the Manilla main screen? Or during messaging, especially when it's in landscape mode?

I've tried restoring with MyPhone (and not PIMBackup) and still having the same problem
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cyber weesje:
hi what apps have you installed i have used both builds whit no isseus
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] LocDogg:
Still no freshly cooked ROM from the chef? :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
Well, it looks like Ark's WMPoweruser 21889 & 23540 ones are ready so hopefully we'll hear something soon :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] TorbenKB:
Darn it.. I'll have to quit sleeping then and wait.. :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] LocDogg:
Just saw this in his shared file. Don't really know what WMPU is but I like the word power :D Hope the new stuff will be posted soon...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
WMPU = http://wmpoweruser.com/

Ark makes ROMS for them.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MRFERRARI23:
OOOOOH Damnnn... here I was getting home today thinking I could relax and flash to Ark's latest rom and then I came on and no new rom, never mind that but not even a peep from Ark on here or on twitter :confused: I know he said he was going to release them either monday or tuesday and since today is tuesday and its still not over maybe he'll still release them!!

CROSSING MY FINGERS!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] LocDogg:
Have u guys seen this? Apparently there is an official Rom out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=634536 It's incredible...Very fast and it looks exactly like out favorite AF :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] corzradio:
he just made ...

that rom...so why can we use it??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] El Nino1977:
Stock ROM

As a stock Rom its pretty good, its been floating around for a while and chefs have been cooking it in for 2 weeks now. Advice from most chefs, was to flash this stock rom first then flash cooked roms after.

ARK as always ensuring perfection before releasing new roms i guess...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
Damn :mad: My TP2 screen developed "Newton's rings" yesterday -

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=541332

and is being returned to HTC tomorrow for repair.

You take your time Ark :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
What did you do to cause that? And dont take too much time Ark, I flashed the stock rom just to see and it is rubbish, but i want to wait for your new one before i re-flash
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
Nope, nothing. I'm really careful with my phones. It just appeared from nowhere yesterday. I notice that quite a few other people are suddenly experiencing this in 6+ month old TP2s so maybe it's a manufacturing fault?

Here's what it looks like for those interested - you will only see it under artificial light. (Sorry for the terrible photo)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
Its a very uniform square in the middle, not what you would expect from an accidnet or natural occurance, which makes me think there may be something dodgy with the htc screens, hope it isnt a widespread issue! Do u have a screen protector or anything?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stunno:
That's EXACTLY how mine went, although it started with a small square in the middle and worked up to to one that size over a month or so.

I got mine in early June, got the small oily area at the beginning of December and the screen stopped responding altogether on new Years Eve.

Vodafone UK swapped it with no problems, even with a cooked ROM on it
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
Yeah, had a screen protector on it but I took it off last night when I saw the distortion on the screen because I thought moisture had got underneath it or something. I reckon it's a manufacturing fault.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
Great, so the touch screen goes eventually!? I have to send mine to HTC's service centre in Milton Keynes so knowing my luck they'd notice the flashed ROM and SPL :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MRFERRARI23:
still no word on the new roms?? I know there coming today so that's a + :D

ok guess ill just check back later.. walks away whistling while waving good-bye smiling ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
Im picturing a dramatic exit on stage right, im thinking in slow motion too!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MRFERRARI23:
LMAOOOO!! I just thought that it was funny in my mind when I was picturing it as I wrote it LOL but It was in a good way, the way I meant it though...as In ill be back later (Jordan shrug) :D

BEETLE JUICE, BEETLE JUICE, BEETLE JUICE!! LOL
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwill:
You dudes are hilarious!!:D I guess this is what happens when you have a rom with no problems and just want to flash something to make your day worthwhile. LOL!! Here's to ARK and my phone not sucking!! Cheers!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MRFERRARI23:
INDEED Mr I dont like the cold LMAOOOOOOO (I'm gonna buy you one of those Snuggies blankets) LOL

BTW I see that you guys have gotten a nice amount of that "COLD" snow lol

Tomorrow its coming to NYC hard I hear a foot or more... so if Ark drops these roms today that would be nice cause it'll keep me busy and give me something else to d rather then just shovel snow!! :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwill:
You want to know why I hate the cold.....yesterday it was snowing and 37 degrees. Today it's sunny and almost 60!! No one can ever get adapted to the cold when it's like that.:D Your focus just needs to be on that 2 ft you all are going to get by tomorrow.:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
Trust me, you shouldnt say that, cos when i arrive and not bettlegeuse your going to be dissappointed to say the least! hahaha, Stop moaning about the cold, I live in england, where this winter we have had a break from the constant drizzle and we have had SNOW!!! though the novelty soon wore off. Even worse my car was in being repaired so I couldnt play in the snow the way I do now im a little more grown up!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stunno:
Tell me about it! I bought a fwd Ford with an electric handbrake in September and it's absolutely cr@p in the snow in empty car parks! :(

Its rock solid in snow on the road, tho, but that's not really the point.

3 months of snow and no slides
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cyber weesje:
think you all wonder off topic this is still a rom thread :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stunno:
Eh, is it?

Sorry about that, no new ROMs about so just passing some time ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
I cant work out if im just getting impatient or just more off topic. Whats the advantages of an electric handbrake?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stunno:
That's a really good question that, Er I haven't found one yet

There's a little lever instead of a handbrake, lift it to put it on, and push it down to knock it off. So no half measures

Ford don't seem too happy with it either because there a a BIG lever underneath the centre console to manually release it if/when it sticks!

The new Espace has an automatic electric handbrake that come on when you stop and goes off when you move off. That would be better than the Ford idea, but not in the snow
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pjw29:
It does seem like over-engineering to me, what's wrong with a good old fashioned heavy duty lever? Ho-hum, still no ROM though, my thumbs are going to fall off from all this twiddling while i wait!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] tarroyo:
LOL you guys are some fools, I'm gon jump in *fist pump* *fist pump*
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mistm:
be thankful not greedy guys! You dont want him to be a slave of his ROM, do you? Just wait patiently if something comes up.
