Dec 27 Sencity Taskbar

Can someone running a Dec 27 NRG Sencity ROM please either post a shot of the home screen or look at the task bar area on your home screen and tell me if the signal meter & Start area look more like image #1 or #2 below?

Image #1 is the taskbar from the 12/1 Sencity ROM which has a signal meter that I like better (easier to read), and #2 is from the 12/20 Sencity ROM. Since I'm running the 21916 series, there's probably little reason for me to flash the newer rom if I'm going to lose the things I like better.

Thanks for your help!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Please stop spamming the thread with this. Would it not have been faster to simply flash the ROM yourself to find out? If you don't like it, then flash right back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] azwildcat98:
Sorry, wasn't trying to annoy anyone, just bumped up my request a couple of times in case someone was able to help me out. I figured lots of people on here run Sencity, and all it takes is a quick look to respond and let me know.

The reason I was trying to avoid having to flash/reflash is because each time I sync with my Exchange server at work it duplicates (triplicates, etc) all of the appointments on my calendar and I have to manually delete them which is a big pain (even running Trines Duplicate Fix doesn't help).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
You could simply back up the full ROM image of the current ROM you're running with Sprite Backup. Make sure you don't transfer that backup to ANY OTHER ROM. The full backups are ONLY good for the exact same ROM you were using. This way, if you don't like the new ones, you don't have to worry about resyncing everything when you roll back to the previous one. Sorry, but I'm not sure how to fix the duplication on a new ROM setup. Perhaps JVH3 might know. I know he works with a true Exchange server as well. I just use Google for mine.

Could somebody help me with my "phone"-application problem?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I think you are not getting a response, because the version of the ROM you are looking at is the 21916 flavor. (start at top)

I haven't used a that style ROM in over a year.

With a Touch Pro 2, why would you want to? With the Raph, it was understandable since you would not be able to use the HTC Volume Control. But the Touch Pro 2 does not have that issue.

With Sencity, on the 29007 version, it is similar to the top image in your attachment. Of course there is no start menu up there, since it is below.

In general, there is not much need to "bump" a post, especially daily. There are plenty of us reading this thread that read every post. Maybe after a week, reposting would not be so bad, but definately not something that should be done daily.

Normally, no response means that no one has the problem you are having or the data that you want. We don't want everyone to post that they don't have the info for you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
Please provide the following info with every request for help:

Specific version of the Touch Pro 2.

Specify your country.

Specify your carrier.

For example, i use the U.S.A. AT&T Tilt 2.

I use it on the AT&T network in the United States, primarily in the state of Minnesota near Minneapolis and Saint Paul and also near Hudson Wisconsin.

What I think you are describing is this:

Since flashing, you press Talk / Send.

The dialer is displayed.

You place a call.

All works fine.

Later, you attempt to do the same thing.

Instead, you get the SMS screen.

Do you use any keyboard remapping software, such as Tarkim's key remapper?

If so, please export the keyboard registry settings and post them.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] blumsen:
Well of course there is. Most of the programs you have installed on your sd card should work just fine after a ROM flash. Just try and run the executables directly from the card after your next flashing to find all the programs that don't need a re-install. For those you just need to create a shortcut and move it to your windows start folder - xda_uc can automate that process for you.

Regarding the rest of your programs, some can be installed "silently" as cabs (again xda_uc) and you will always get stuck with some programs that you just have to install manually every time you flash your phone. Otherwise it wouldn't be fun!

Instant Speed Boost + Windows Phone 7 U.I. in 5 Minutes

Wow, I'm all shook up by the experience! Now I know just how fast my Tilt 2 can be. :eek: Check this video.

And it only takes less than 5 minutes and a ridiculously small standalone HostV1.5.CAB (4.24 MB) w/o any messing up of your EnergyROM. I ran it on Energy.RHODIUM.29007.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Dec.27 (w/ WiMoSpeed_V1.02.CAB to overclock @ 748mHz) and it's fast, fluid & everything works fine.

1- Before trying this, just for fun, look in ArkSwitch for the available memory & write it down then open a few programs/photo gallery/etc & notice how long they take to load.

2- Download HostV1.5.CAB from the WP7UI, Standalone for WM6.5 --HOST-- V1.5 thread.

3- Copy CAB to memory card & install it from there on the device, NOT on the card!

4- This is essential: Disable HTC Sense: Start > Settings > Personal > Home > Items > unckeck HTC Sense and select Windows Default or NOT for more free memory. This puts your phone in Titanium mode. Note free memory. To gain an additional 25mB of memory: Start > Settings > Start Menu Layout Switch & select Panel or Compact instead of Normal.

5- Reboot for good measure as this will probably clean up the memory.

6- Start > run Host! Then try the same programs you ran in step #1. Run ArkSwitch & note the free memory. It's 118,500 K w/ Panel for me vs. 90,700 K w/ Sense enabled in EnergyROM Dec27 & Start > Panel Layout.

7- You can exit the app at anytime by simply tapping & holding on the black bar in the right side of Home to exit. BTW in the same popup menu there is Settings & Help.

It's like comparing an old Cadillac boat on wheels to a Ferrari. You loose some bell & whistles and a certain style of eye candy but... wow!

To go back to your regular program: just reverse step 4 and using Total Commander or Resco Explorer > Windows\Startup > delete Host.lnk if you want to prevent Host from automatically loading on re-booting the phone OR install the Host cab. Absolutely no harm done except to your psyche. :confused:

Isse with Facebook Application

Not sure if anyone has noticed this, but the Windows Facebook application doesn't let you comment on peoples posts using the slideout keyboard, the SIP however works fine.

You click the status of the person you want to comment on, click comment, slide out the keyboard, type your message, and click post... but the comment doesn't post, if you do the same with the SIP the comment does post.

Not sure if this is an issue with the App or the ROM, anyone else having the same problem ?:confused:

Touch screen not working

The touch screen on my Rhod.210 not working, is there a way i could use the hardware keyboard to install my apps., thanks for any help i can get it would appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] IgwanaRob:
I cannot even think of one program I have 'installed' on my SD card that doesn't work after a new flash, and they haven't been properly 'installed' since I got the phone. The only thing needed for most programs is to copy a shortcut to the phone so it shows up in the start menu, although anything that needs registry entries for it's options can be easily imported with UC (as well as copying files or anything that needs an actual install to work).

Bottom line is XDA_UC and other UC derivatives is the easiest way to insure a proper setup (one you wrestle with it for a bit and make it submit to your will ;p )
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Glad it worked for you, but I'm still not a big fan of the Metro UI. I like my eye candy with Sense. :)

Try using XDAFacebook. It's still in beta, but Joe has been putting a ton of effort into it. It's almost fully functional and currently has more useful features than the official Facebook app from M$.

You can try using the arrow keys and then press the Enter button. Other than that, I'm not sure. You will likely need to replace the digitizer to regain functionality.

Set SMS manager to Stock HTC SMS Manager.

Nice one thanks, I'll give it a go.

Also is there a way to stop Outlook managing SMS, I like the stock HTC SMS manager, I can't seem to get it back.

*EDIT 1: Resolved *Anyone looking to revert to HTC SMS install: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=741179 ( updated HTC Messaging client, official HTC modified for stability by the dev's here at XDC )

*EDIT 2: Resolved *XDAFacebook is a really nice app, much better than the official windows version. it also has an autoupdate feature at launch. it's a little slow loading, but once it's running it's a very neat easy to use and finger freindly application, kudos to the dev ( it's only in beta 4 too which is showing real promise!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Joe Bleau:
Host 1.5 & WP7 UI

Yes but the candy ain't free in term of speed & stability. The beauty of the Host 1.5 app is that you can you can try it w/o flashing the ROM & see how the WP7 looks like.

Nobody has a WP7 in my village @ the present. ;)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] e_brady_61821@yahoo.com:
I thought I would add my 2 cents to this. I install 90% of my apps to the storage card (16gb) the exception being UI elements and overclocking/system tools. I have created folder/sub folders in my start menu where I keep all the shortcuts to my storage card installed apps. So they are not intermixed with the cooked in folders (I use the standard start menu).

Pre-flash I do a PIM back-up to my SD card and include my custom start menu folders so the shortcuts are backed up. I also use MS MyPhone to back up txt messages and files from my wallpapers/pictures folder.

After turning the phone off I pull SIM & SD, do a task29 then flash. After the flash is complete I chkdsk my SD card & defrag it while the device is setting up. Then I do a hard reset, let it setup again. Once that is complete I install the SIM and do the carrier set up stuff (AT&T). By that time my SD maintenance is complete and I power down and insert the card. On reboot I PIM restore (file from card) , MyPhone, FavPeople..etc all with reboot at the end of each step. The final piece is XDA UC and Settings Export. Then it's fun time :)

I consistently flash Energy Cookie flavor and I am currently running Energy.RHODIUM.29007.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Dec.27 (AT&T Tilt2).

Now with all that said, this is not with out issues..it's hit&miss with custom icons in my start menu folders even with JWMD Icon Changer and I don't get much more than 50mb~40mb of free RAM.

I am certain there are/is a better way to get more performance, but I have never had any problems with running any of the applications installed on my SD card and I have been using this method on my Tilt 2 since Energy.RHODIUM.24634.Sense2.5.Cookie.Sep.07 and on previous FUZE with TAEL roms.

This is just my personal experience(s) and as I said before there I am sure there are ways to improve this method for better performance post flash.

Captivate

Whats wrong with me..new captivate for Christmas but I'm still back here everyday looking for a new Energy ROM to flash on my TILT2. Thanks for the fun Christmas ROM BTW, that was neat to have for a week!!

Captivate GPS is about worthless, no wireless tethering yet either. No way to lock to 3G or to Edge either which I do all the time. Now I have to carry two phones and swap the SIM when I want those other functions. BTW, Android Rocks and all the aps are way more supported and refined. If ATT would just update to Froyo (2.2) from 2.1. Haven't flashed new Captivate ROM yet but I will after I get some time on the phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
You may want to post it on a Captivate thread.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] kb9nvh:
Yeah, this was kinda a goobye message more than anything else. I do appreciate everyones help over here and the general demeanor of the group here. Also, I mentioned the Captivate drawbacks just quickly so that others know its not all rose's if they choose to go that route. Rhodium is showing its age at a year old (tech moves so fast). AND it looks like I might be running two phones for a bit and still cant seem to stop flashing everything new that NRG puts out for us. Thanks everyone for your inputs over the last year and a big thanks to NRG. Beer coming your way sir...

Todd Snyder

********************

I think the captivate owners already know the drawbacks though and probably don't care about my problems with leaving the TILT2. Probably more appropriate for the TILT2 general discussion thread though.

Stuck on the multi colored splash screen - Bootloader Mode

Edit: I just saw that you solved your problem while I was typing this post but it could be useful to other users anyway...

What is your phone model? Check under the battery. Maybe this in red bold type as seen in post #1 was addressed to you?

If not a CDMA phone (If it is RHOD100, RHOD200, or RHOD300 or Fortress ST7377 (Tilt 2 AT&T), then it is GSM. RHOD400 and RHOD500 are CDMA. This includes any subsets of these models, like RHOD210 for T-Mobile) then I would try:

1- Remove SIM & memory card.

2- Download Task29 attached to this message, connect the phone in Bootloader mode ("multi colored splash screen") to PC & run Task29 from PC to clean up the phone.

3- Turn phone off & put manually in bootloader mode: press the power button whilst holding down the Volume Down button & connect to PC.

4- Download fresh copy of the ROM.

5- Flash ROM & report here!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
You may be running out of memory - that is why is indeed RELEVANT that you post more information about the ROM you are using. If you haven't done so, try using Compact Menu and see if the problem stops. If it does, it is likely you were running out of RAM when opening a MMS - Arkswitch can help you see the RAM you had before opening the MMS, but it won't be conclusive about the cause as you would not know how much RAM the MMS consumed, although if Arkswitch was already showing very low RAM, it will be likely this is what is happening.

Why is "Normal" Start Menu Memory Hog the Default?

Which begs the question: why is the "Normal" start Menu layout the default in the EnergyROM? One can free up 33% more memory by selecting Panel, Compact or Sense in > Start > Settings > Personal > Start Menu Layout Switch.

Yes, one can change it but why default to the memory hog? It does not help newbies at all IMO.

ROM Dec 27 w/ "Normal" Start menu: 77,616 free vs. 99,300 K w/ Panel according to ArkSwitch. :confused:

I downloaded the ROM "dinik" but after installing it, the version of the operating system has not changed.

How can I upgrade?

Here's some info:

info are in Italian, but I think you understand
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Because this isn't your ROM. NRG cooks his personal ROM for others to enjoy. He uses a HTC HD2, which doesn't have this memory issue. There are also seven other devices that he cooks the same ROM for. If you aren't fond of his choices within the ROM, he has been gracious enough to leave room for customization. It wasn't long ago that we had to install the CSM on our own and had no other cooked in start menus. This is the only ROM I've noticed that even has this as an option. Consider yourself fortunate.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
I cannot speak on NRGZ's behalf, so these are my guesses:

1- He keeps the "normal" WM start menu as default because it is the standard. He gives people several options, simple to change according to their preferences. For example, I prefer to use the standard.

2- He cooks and uses the ROM the way he likes it, and is kind enough to share it with us and even accommodate requests. As he uses the HD2 and that device has plenty of RAM, he does not need to make a "RAM saver" mode the default.

3- He says at the very beginning of this thread that EnergyROMs are "eye candy". The standard Start Menu is the one that fits that description.

4- The start menu is not the culprit of the lack of RAM. Other devices (such as the Fuze, aka as Touch Pro) have the same amount of RAM as the Rhodium and are not plagued with lack of memory. The reason of our problems is believed to be the drivers which seem to use much more RAM on the Rhodium. So, the start menu modification is just a trick to compensate for it.

5- It is not outrageous to expect that noobs read some and get educated a little bit before flashing (and potentially bricking) their most times expensive devices.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:

Re: Why is "Normal" Start Menu Memory Hog the Default?

Why are you guys so defensive about the ROM in it's current form? The last time I checked this thread is about the energyROM for Rhodium (a.k.a Touch Pro 2 and AT&T branded HTC Tilt 2) so it's not pertinent to underscore that the default Start menu is taking too much memory on the Rhodium? :confused:

"...NRG cooks his personal ROM... There are also seven other devices that he cooks the same ROM for..." - So it's a bit more than a personal thing as the ROM's are heavily Energy branded & he has now his personal site linked in post #1 where ROMs for 12 devices @ the present are offered including supposedly one customized for the Touch Pro 2/Rhodium. It's more like a small cottage business based on donations IMO. And that's OK with me.

"...Consider yourself fortunate" - Does that mean that we can't make comments on the ROM from the Rhodium perspective? I don't care if the HD2 has no memory problem, I don't own one. ;) My post had also the objective of pointing out to newbies how to change the default start menu & the cost in term of memory.

1- The Standard can be changed as it's a custom ROM after all.

2- But considering the support he gets from this thread, maybe he could take in account the suggestions we make for a ROM better serving our Rhodium with it's given specs?

3- He also says in the line just below "eye candy": "• Speed !!!". ;)

4- But I have a Rhodium so I can't speak/care about the ROM's performance on other phones.

5- Default settings are primarily for the benefit of noobs IMO. Advanced users like you know how to tweak stuff and can post about speed or eye candy optimization at will & we are thankful for your contributions BTW. ;)
