Youtube app volume problem

I noticed that the NRG ROM's have a a little annoying issue regarding volume control within the Youtube app. Sometimes when I raise the volume, I see 2 volume meters instead of 1 which is really annoying. The videos freezes whenever I raise or lower the volume as well and then plays normally once the volume meter has gone away. Is there any way to fix this or even revert it to how it is on stock ROM's where the volume meter is on the left side of the video? I've tried running all of the latest sense 2.5 NRG ROM's BTW. They all have the same problem. I've task 29'd before I flashed, HR after flash and last of all SR. Anyone???

I'm currently running NRG Sense 2.5 Aug 13th Cookie GTX.

Compressed ROMs & Memory

Hi mmalka & NRG, all this talk about available RAM and memory management have been interesting. A while back cmd512 posted some settings and a link to an explanation regarding cache settings. I was browsing the website he referenced with info about his changes. I was reading this page and it got me to thinking about how the ROMs are cooked.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ee482941.aspx

I was wondering, if the ROM files are compressed to save storage space, will this then cause the ROM to chew up more RAM when those compressed files are run? The explanation I am seeing there says that as long as the files in the ROM are not compressed, they can be run from their location in the ROM. If they are compressed, the phone needs to decompress them and load them into RAM.

I am certainly not a programmer, but I wanted to spark some discussion on this and maybe NRG could off out a BETA ROM for this phone that isn't compressed, just to do some benchmarking.

Hmmm that's odd. Chrome browser just posted a warning when I tried to access this forum. It said it contained elements from www.energyroms.com which is known to contain malware.

I guess someone out there doesn't like Energy ROMs... :(

Additional: Digging into this a bit further, here's Google's analysis: http://safebrowsing.clients.google.....energyroms.com/&client=googlechrome&hl=en-GB

i'm wondering if these are the memory issues im not paying attention to. i opened up the camera while i had tcpmp playing music to car stereo through bluetooth. i pressed home, repressed action and the screen went black, went back, tried again, got in camera and tcpmp crashed along with arkswitch.

i reopened arkswitch and tcpmp, tried sending an image through text message and tcpmp crashed again. arkswitch was still on. what's going on?

Thanks for the tips. aGPS is supported here and was activated. I did do all the HTC GPS tools, but until this morning to no avail. However, after posting to the group GM suddenly decided to work. Great! WIll remember the tips though.

Memory issues vs Arkswitch problem

raz1337 noted some crashing issues a bit ago.

I can confirm from playing around all morning long that Arkswitch either won't switch between running programs (it just shows information about the process) or that Arkswitch has closed.

After doing some soft resets, Arkswitch starts each time but often crashes the first or second time after loading ANY program. I don't see the black screen the OP noted, and I can't find a pattern but it my problem is certainly reproducible.

On a related note... After some (but not all) soft resets, I sometimes have to touch the screen to get Sense to load. I remember this had been an issue for some folks earlier. I did the usual troubleshooting per the FAQs but not getting any love. This all started after flashing to Aug 13 last night.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
I don't know much about WM, but here is my GUESS: if the decompression process takes place when you invoke a cooked program or module, it should not take more RAM, but rather more CPU (for decompressing).

An analogy would be running a program in your PC that it is in a zip file. The program, when running, will always have the same size (as it only runs unzipped) no matter if it was zipped before or not, but the CPU has the extra work of unzipping it, what it does not have to do if it wasn't zipped before.

This is probably a spooky effect, normal to be expected on a Friday 13 ROM :D

+1 EasyShare throwing up corrupt files.

So, I tried 23129 Energy and I like it just fine so far BUT it seems to have broken USB tethering. I haven't tried it via wifi because this PC doesn't have wifi and PDANet works but not as well as HTC's tethering utility. I know this PC works with the HTC method because it's WinXP and I installed the modem driver and it worked fine with 21911 Titanium. Any wisdom?

XDA_UC Restore Cookie Home Tab Settings

So, I finally figured out what needs to be done to get XDA_UC to restore Cookie Home Tab Settings on a Hard Reset.

I was getting a version mismatch error from CHTEditor.exe because it was not detecting the version of the Cookie Home Tab.

The registry entry was not set that defines this and I finally took the time to search through the registry for this today.

This gets set on the first launch of Sense with the Cookie Home Tab. During XDA_UC, it has not yet been run.

Attached is a zip with

reg file

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Co0kie.HomeVersion"="1.8.5"

unicode mscr file

Run("\Program Files\CHTEditor\CHTEditor.exe", """\Storage Card\sense2.5\CookieTilt2Aug4.cht""")

You will either need to name your cht file CookieTilt2Aug4.cht and put it at \Storage Card\sense2.5

Or edit the mscr file with notepad

Task 29 and Reflash with XDA_UC - time set correct - no timezone popup

I did something different this time.

I took the SIM out.

I also took the SD card out.

I performed Task 29. Then I flashed the August 13th Cookie 23129 ROM vie Storage Card.

Then, after XDA_UC completed, I waited until Sense loaded. If will eventually load, for sure if you restore Cookie Home Tab settings.

Then, pressed Yes to soft reset.

Then, I turned on WiFi. SIM is still not in.

I synched Exchange and all email accounts.

I powed off. Inserted SIM. Started it back up.

The time set correctly (It was not off by an hour). And there has been no timezone popup.

I am thinking that the key to the time setting correctly was not having the SIM in when XDA_UC and any other initializations first ran.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I almost never have more than 10 messages. I blast them with every flash. If I want to keep it, I forward it to an email account.

As far as I know there is no good search mechanism for text messages.

Best bet is to forward anything that you might find important right away to an email acount dedicated to important messages. To prevent any junk getting into it, don't tell anyone this account and don't use it for anything online

Been running this since this morning on the aug 10 gtx rom and have only had one SOD when I tried to juice it above 710 (730 didnt do so well on my phone). It's been running stable for me since then (14+ hrs) with no resets at 710. Speed is amazing. Only thing I havent figured out is how to make the changes persistent. When I first was toying with it I did a soft reset to see if the changes I made would stick but they didnt, but no biggie there, excellent tool and I'm sure the persistence is there but I'm too lazy right now to figure out how to set it up properly :p .
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monomer888:
You're likely to get a faster answer in the Bounty Overclocking thread. It's a built-in safety feature. Once you know the speed settings are 'safe' (i.e. won't hang your device), you have to turn OC off and then on again either via the GUI or using the links in the Start menu to make them default.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] deeznuts:
Exactly what scripts? Im also using netrippers OT mod but notice at times the device reacts faster then normal and at times the device reacts much slower then normal, almost beyond operational for being so slow. Anyone to keep the constant speed fast all the time? Just use the stock settings when installing netrippers cab, havent messed with the numbers in the gui app with it. I have a shortcut to turn it on in the startup folder so after a soft reset the over clock is on right away. But like i said, sometimes its quick but sometimes so slow you have to soft reset.

I also have NRG's rom pagepool set to 16mb if that makes a difference?

I mean iwartz's Over Clock app is what i use, not nettrippers. With iwartz's you can have it enabled after a soft reset without manually turning it on/off. But it caps out around 647mhz or something like that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monomer888:
New version 1.5 out removes the cap but also changes the dynamic speed algorithm. Some people are getting SODs with 1.5. Check the Bounty Overclocking thread for details.

If its still there when you try to flash via RUU, it will kick in and interrupt the RUU flash and error. I know because I've done it. Unless flashing via RUU, should be fine to leave it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
I understand what you're saying about the CPU, but where does the decompression take place ? It would be natural to assume that happens in RAM, because the decompressed instructions/data have to go somewhere. Does it have to decompress it and then run it (thereby taking RAM) ? Or does it decompress each part and execute on the fly, not taking any additional RAM ? Just curious, not suggesting there's a problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
I'm not seeing any issue with Arkswitch not being able to switch between programs, but it will close if you run low on memory. It's not crashing, just that WM is forcibly closing it because of low memory. You can just restart it manually if you like.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monomer888:
I don't pretend to know much about this, but I've been led to believe execute-in-place (running directly from ROM) isn't available on our devices that use NAND memory.

I've tried two different 23129's because I really like that build, last I messed with 23xxx it was with my Kaiser and it was way too buggy. It looks to have come a looong way.

Just flashed Energy.RHODIUM.23129.Sense2.5.Aug.13 and then installed Cookie manually. For some reason, I feel like I have more stability installing Cookie manually. Had some problems getting Second Today + Weather Panel working, but an uninstall/reinstall fixed it. I wonder if XDA_UC screwed up Second Today.

Why is my clock always an hour behind by default in the last 3-4 builds? Is it a daylight savings setting?

We'll see how this goes. Not sure how easily I'll be able to flash every new build like I've been doing the last month. Going to be busy with 2 jobs and school.

I did not experience the timezone popup, but I did have the problem of the time being off by one hour after flashing.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jlmwrite:
stevie, your sig says you are still running Aug 10. I've never had the Arkswitch close on any previous ROMs unless I had heavy usage with lots of stuff open.

On The Aug 13 23xxx DinikGlass, I am having issues with Arkswitch on a fresh boot with only the calculator open! If WM memory management is forcing it closed, there are other issues at hand...

I can soft reset, open only Word or the calculator and reproduce the problem every single time. Had a few other funky problems with this release I've never seen before (strange messages when opening PIE) and the address bar disappearing in Opera when switching to landscape mode. That's in addition to the timezone pop-up that reappeared after a lockup while using the music tab I reported a day or two ago.

(Yes -- Task29 between each flash, Application data folder deleted, not overclocked, etc, etc, etc, etc).

I just reflashed to Aug 10 and am setting up even as I type this. Other than the occasional My Location weirdness I reported, Aug 10 was rock-solid for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
That is actually the correct and normal behavior of Windows memory management.

Without mods by HTC on the 21xxx series or aMeBa for the 23xxx series, the X does not close things. Windows keeps everything open so it will be ready faster for you next time. Then if it beccomes low on memory, it closes applications.

I believe it closes the application that has not been accessed by the user for the longest amount of time.

If it needs more memory, it repeats this, always closing the application least recently accessed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I might hard reset again today, just to determine when the time set correctly.

Keep in mind after a flash, I don't connect to my computer.

I only do that to Task29 and copy the nbh to my storage card.

I synced all data over WiFi, which does not connect to my PC, and then powered down to insert the SIM.

I am about 90% sure that the time did not set until after I inserted the SIM and I had not connected to my PC.

Now that I figured out the missing peoiece to make the Cookie Settings restore via XDA_UC, there is nothing manual to setup after a hard reset.

So, in a little while I will be hard resetting to confirm exactly when it set.

I am finding that I can only run one program at a time with the latest ROMs, and just pressing the home key to go back to the home tab is often enough to cause the program I am running to close (not to mention ArkSwitch and PocketShield as well).

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
If it helps:

1- I always flash with the SD card and the SIM card in the phone (I know, I know that this could cause problems, but I never had any)

2- I always flash via USB

3- After I flashed, I removed the USB cable, let the phone boot, performed a hard reset, and let it boot again (still not connected to the PC). The SIM card was recognized, the phone configured for AT&T, but the time was off by one hour.

4- I then hard reset again, and this time let the phone boot with the USB cable connected to the PC. The partnership was created (although I did not click on "next" to continue ActiveSync configuration on the PC), the SIM card was recognized and configured for AT&T, but now the time was correct.

That is why I am guessing that at some point (probably when the phone connected to the PC and ActiveSync started), the time was obtained from the PC.

I hope this helps.

Need help figuring out the best NRG ROM to use. Right now I'm using Energy.RHODIUM.23129.Sense2.5.Cookie.DinikGlass.Aug.13. I absolutely love this version and everything it has to offer, seems to run smoother than any of the previous versions of this ROM. The problem is the amount of free RAM I'm left with after installing the apps I need for my job. I have to install a file called "sqlce.wce5.armv41", an app for managing my cases (I repair printers,servers,etc), AlarmPal (so I get reminded more than once on incoming SMS), a company forced PIN policy after I setup my email and MS Communicator. After all is said and done I'm sitting at 44mb free.

So which NRG ROM will give me the most free RAM?!?
