I had this problem. The activesync was acting wishy washy and the phone did not want to update after I started. Tried the SD card install and got the same problem.

Solution: I think I had 2 problems that were confusing me. 1) Try a different computer - I think some software on my work comp was messing with activesync, causing it to lose connection. 2) I don't think that the 1st ROM I downloaded was a complete download, since I downloaded it twice. They were different sizes (YES, I know this doesn't make sense, since I WAS able to open both in 7-zip, I don't have any other explanation).

Fresh download + different computer = Rom Upgrade (for me)

Laptop fund

So far NRG's donation total from only this thread is just shy of $400. This is only including amounts posted after the announcement of his dead laptop. The average donation to him is about $10, so I used that amount when only a confirmation number was present. This is pretty impressive in one day. Also take into account that there are several other devices that he cooks for including CDMA versions. If the other threads were as generous as we have been, then the total would be close to $3000 so far. I doubt any other thread can beat us, though. :)

I'm noticing how the Salvation Army can't even raise money this fast. Maybe they should cook ROMs...

Sorry if this the wrong place for this, but I'm desperate.

I'm trying to flash an energy rom. I did it once without running task29 and for some reason the camera won't run. I get an error message that says either the camera certificate is not signed or is missing a component. Try and reinstall the camera.exe file.

So I thought I would try to run task29 first and reflash, however when I run task29 I get an "error message 240, file open" message.

Does anybody know what's going on here? Am I doing something wrong?

Oh Great! I finally got task29 to run, now I can't get an active sync connection.

All I get on my TP2 is the AT&T starup screen or the boot loader.

What do I do Now? I hope I didn't just brick this thing!

I'll donate $20 to you if you can help me fix this problem?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] BigWopHH:
The non-working camera, camcorder, and g-sensor issues have been discuessed at length and fixed. Search the thread for fix, which is available via a CAB and a few registry tweaks. They're both available withing the last few pages. Once installed, everything with work properly.

Post your confirmation number for the $20 donation in the thread once you've found the fixes and installed them.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Yea, no kidding. I checked the other ones before I made that post to be sure. If they would have matched us, he'd be express shipping a new laptop as we speak (post). I was very surprised to see that the Leo thread wasn't giving more than that. I think they had around $70 total.

It's up to us, guys! Let's get the man up and running again!!! I can spare another $20 for the holidays, but that's going to be about it for me. Don't tip your waiters, tip the chef. Give the guy in red ringing that bell an I.O.U. and help NRG help you!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Clearly, you don't understand what task29 does, or you wouldn't be asking this. Since it's the holidays, and the promise of a $20 donation, I'm going to walk you through this, as painful as it may be for me.

task29 formats the internal memory of your device. That means you have erased the ROM that was on your phone. What you need to do is press the reset button (the little pin hole button under the battery cover) with your stylus while holding the volume down button. Keep the volume down button held until you are brought to a 3 colored screen. This is called the bootloader.

Plug the device in to the PC with the USB cord. Wait for the device to change from displaying "Serial" to "USB" at the bottom of the screen. Now, run the ROM update as you normally do.

If you are unable to connect to the PC for some reason, you can flash via SD. Rename the *.nbh file to RHODIMG.nbh if it isn't already, and move it to the root (not in any folders) of the SD card. You may need a microSD card adapter to be able to read the card on your PC. Once it is on the SD card, put the SD card back into your device and boot into bootloader. Follow the instructions on the screen to update the ROM image.

As for your problems with the ROM, solutions have been posted already if you had bothered to search. For your reference, I've listed them here as well.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] neilah:
Those issues aren't the issue right now. I ran task29. Now the phone will not connect with Active Sync. I either have the white at&t startup screen or I can get into the boot loader, but I don't know how to proceed from here to get a ROM installed as I can't get an Active Sync connection.

Did I just brick this thing or is there way to get the ROM installed that I'm just not getting? How can I get this phone to sync with the computer? That wold be worth the donation.

I'm fairly new at this, but I can't figure out how to get an Active Sync connecion right now. The phone has no boot memory after task29 and therefor won't connect to my computer. Thanks for your help if you know what I'm doing wrong.

Sorry I frustrated you, but remember the days when you were in my shoes? I hope it wasn't too painful for ya.

I clealy did understand what task 29 did, I just didn't realize this part "Wait for the device to change from displaying "Serial" to "USB" at the bottom of the screen. Now, run the ROM update as you normally do."

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] josemald:
I've read your posts, and I'm not sure you're getting into bootloader mode. You should see your screen similar to this if you were successful:

http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:...0/wuilber002/HTCKaiserTyTN2BootLoader.jpg&t=1

It takes soma manual skills to do it, you need to press the reset button with the stylus (it's on the right side of the phone), and inmediately after your screen goes black press the power and level down button at the same time. What I do is put my left thum on the level down and left index on the power button. Then use the right hand for the stylus, so I can quickly press the buttons. Try a few times, it should work. Outside bootloader mode, you can't get Activesync conection, since the phone doesn't have the software to do it anymore.

Once you see the colored screen, then you can conect your phone via USB cable. If no conection can be established at that time, then you can worry. Still, if that is the case, try installing the rom through microSD card.

Hope this helps.

I know from reading this thread that asking for prior releases is frowned upon, but I flashed the 29005 build and am having major issues. I've done the cab install - GsL3on to fix some of the issues, but 29005 is still very unstable for me, mainly with the lock screen.

I wanted to back down to the 23151 release with Cookie 1.85 (Energy RHODIUM 23151 Sense2 5 Cookie Dec 11), as I understand it is a pretty fast build. I can't find this on F1ip.net, and wondered where I might find it.

I did load - Energy ROM Dec 11 Sense 2.5.7z - which is a build w/o Cookie, and it is incredibly fast. Thought maybe I could add the Cookie 1.8.5 piece and keep the speed. I miss some of the Cookie Home tab features.

Thanks!

This isn't the first forum I've been a part of, but I have always, since my very first post in the HP iPAQ forums, used the search features first before posting. I get frustrated when users don't use the search feature of a forum. It's especially annoying when the search feature is as powerful as the one here on XDA. Most forums don't have one that nice.

When I flashed my first ROM, I read and read for over a week so that I understood not only what I was doing to my device, but also how it worked. Therefore, due to my extensive searching and reading, I had no questions to ask for about six months, while I learned more about it, and became familiar with the intricacies of this device.

I don't expect every single person to become this intimate with their phones. I did it because I was interested in it. However, it is always proper to read and search in a forum setting. By not doing so, a user is effectively telling everyone else that his time is more valuable than theirs.

Didn't the Energy 23151 build have the same camera and g-sensor problems as 29005? I do have the file you're asking for if you really want it, but I doubt it's going to be any better. 29005 is a faster build than 23151. I still recommend 28244, though.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] hefman:
You really need to post that in the HardSPL thread, as it does not pertain to this rom. There are lots of posts about this issue there and you can probably find your answer simply by searching in that thread.

On the surface, it appears you have already used your license to HardSPL or that you don't have a data connection active on your device.

Found another issue in 29005: Fonts

The files for Calibri bold, italic and bold italic are not in the \windows or \windows\fonts folders.

It's an easy fix, as copying the missing files from a PC into the \windows\fonts folder solves that,

but I thought the chef might want to know.

I haven't checked the other ones, but Calibri and a special version of courier are the ones I use on my device.

mmm regarding the laptop!

Yeah I love an HP.. I've been using one for the last couple years, but recently bought an Asus to test because Asus in my opinion makes the best quality motherboards and video cards on the market for desktop PCs and figured their laptops should be of the same quality.

The laptops have surpassed every expectation i've had!

You can get an i7 quad core, with 8GB DDR3 RAM and 1.5GB DDR5 video memory, 1TB hard drive space and a blu-ray player for under US$2000 :eek:

Some models come with a switch to swap between onboard graphics and discrete graphics.. significantly increases the battery life.

I would STRONGLY recommend then Asus over the HP :)

.Net Errors

I was flashing my Fuze with NRG's 28244 tonight. I know I've seen the posts of the .Net errors that this build causes. I have never experienced this on my Tilt 2, but tonight after booting up my Fuze, I got the .Net error as soon as the Home Screen showed up.

Upon further investigation, the cgacutil.exe showed the version to be 3.5.9198.00. Checking the registry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\.NetCompactFramework), the version there was 3.5.9085.00 (dword:1).

With the cgacutil.exe showing the version that it did, I added this key:

3.5.9198.00, dword:1

and set the 3.5.9085.00 to dword:0

After a soft reset, the .Net error was gone.

I believe the registry key should match what cgacutil.exe shows to be the version to prevent the .Net errors.

HEY NRG!!

I had this issue with my Dell laptop.

Yes it is the overheated Nviia chip.

At the time I was using XP instead of the Vista it came with.

What I did to get it to operate (although slower):

I went into safemode.

I uninstalled my Nvidia drivers

It then operates on default MS grafic drivers, not using the chip.

I knew I could do this, because on boot up I could see the screen operate normally, before windows loaded.

I did this before it got worse as the screen was freezing up on me before it died.

Wow that looks like a good deal.

How come so cheap?

I myself cannot recommend anything other than a Toshiba for consumer use.

My personal experience with various issues with HP, Sony, Dell & Tosh so it may differ from your experience

He may have to look for a laptop which has ability to convert to XP.

A Laptop which has a good support of users for the drivers if decides to convert.

Remember he was on XP, and now maybe stuck with Windows7,

which is not a bad thing,

but the Kitchen files may need to be run in "XP compatability mode"

Nothing is better than XP in my honest opinion, and I am talking about program compatability, not just speed.

SOOORY FOR OFF TOPIC post!

I hate to spoil the party, but I have to remind everyone that this forum is about EnergyROM and not about laptops, XP, or Windows7.

NRGZ is knowledgeable enough to decide what is better for him, but if anyone wants to give him recommendations or suggestions, please PM him instead of posting here.

I guess this is happening for the lack of new ROMs to flash... it is called withdrawal syndrome.

Copying fonts to your device

To copy .ttf (TrueType) fonts to your mobile device you can either:

- use a explorer app like Pocket Controller that allows you to browse the \Windows folder on the device and drag and drop the files into \Windows\Fonts

or

- use Windows Explorer to copy the files to your device (pick any folder you'll remember)

- then, on the device, use File Explorer or Total Commander and move them to \Windows\Fonts

The missing Calibri files are Calibri Bold, Calibri Italic and Calibri Bold Italic. Those fonts come with Windows since XP, so you'll find them in your \Windows\Fonts folder on your computer.

First off, nice ROM. It's faster and sturdier than the older version I used :)

Please add the ROM you are using in the future....

Have you tried going to Start, Settings, Home...the default theme is EnergyROM 2008 (which includes the default taskbar and softkey bar you asked about). If that is selected, try selecting another...hit ok...let the phone refresh...then go back in and select the 2008 theme. That should work.

Sorry, I've been absent for the last few days, but not having a PC is a serious roadblock for getting online.

However, with the donations I've received so far... just shy of 1K... I was able to order a new laptop from dell with a nice i7! That should speed up ROM cooking quite a bit. My ROM kitchen was unaffected, as the hard drive from the old hard drive was still running great.
