The changes were so minor* that NRGZ tweeted the changelog rather than update post #5. There's a post by cajunflavoredbob that helpfully quoted him here.

*minor for us. Not so minor for NRGZ who had to fix the themes.

What do you mean by not working?

If you mean it won't launch, it might be a broken link on the menu. Try looking for the "Bubble Breaker.exe" in the \Windows folder. For the record, it seems to launch and work just fine on the Standard 21683 25th Oct ROM with the Compact Start Menu. Without more information about your specific issue, it's hard to help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] deeznuts:
Thanks. I knew it had to be the app and/or facebook issue but since it's cooked in and im sure many use this feature i thought id ask about it here first. Sucks, love using facebook chat on there since im never on a computer. Let me know via PM if you hear of anything please.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] babak:
sorry you're right, actually I wanted to know with sense interface active, after a softreset how much is free ram,with Glass 21681
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] babak:
thanks for your replay :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
No need for a PM. I would imagine it will either be pushed out as an update or simply start working randomly like the Twitter problem.

I flashed the .sencity 21916 ROM and the latest radio and text messages dont work. I just get "Test messages cannot be sent". Should I flash another radio or is there a fix for it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Can you make phone calls? If so, then call your carrier. Phone transmissions and SMS use the same protocol. There are no special settings for SMS for that reason. Perhaps you don't have a SMS service, or maybe they are blocked, or perhaps you don't have reception.

phone/radio permanently disabled after soft reset

I've been using the Rodium EnergyROM Sense 2.5 for my T-Mobile Touch Pro2 for almost a year now. I usually upgrade to the latest ROM every 2 or 3 months and had been using the Touch Pro2 successfully with each new version until I upgraded to the October ROM versions (21681 and 21683). On October 15th I upgraded to version 21681. Everything ran ok until after I did a soft reset of the phone. After soft resetting the phone, the radio is completed disabled and the phone is incredibly non-responsive. When I open the Comm Manager I see that the Phone is switched off and try to turn it on, but it just shows the spinning circles in the middle of the screen like it's trying to do something, but the phone never turns on again.

Obviously when this happens the phone is completely unusable. THE PHONE APP WON'T EVEN OPEN!!! When I press the green (physical) phone button or try to open the phone using the icon on the home screen, nothing happens. And I see two red icons at the very top of the screen that look like a disconnected power cord.

Here's YouTube video of the issue (sorry for the slight bluriness on the display):

youtube.com/watch?v=XcQrk4SNmdU

(because my account is still "new" it won't let me include full hyperlink to video. You'll have to cut and paste)

Soft resetting the device over again doesn't fix the issue. But after a hard reset (using the "Wipe Device" app), the phone works fine again and I can make a phone calls and surf the web. But then after a simple soft reset, the phone/radio REFUSES to turn on. Upgrading to the 21683 didn't fix the issue either.

Before anyone tries to ask me "Why are you soft-resetting your phone?" Obviously soft-resets are required for Windows phones. It's impossible to operate a Windows phone with soft-resetting at least once or twice a week (my experience). And it's required when installing some apps. And I can't use a my phone when it won't work after a simple soft reset.

I thought it may had been an app I installed that was causing the issue, so I tested several different times without installing or configuring ANYTHING after a hard reset, then I'd soft-reset it and the phone stoped working.

The TP2 is completely unusable with this issue. Is anyone else experiencing this??? How can I fix? Help!!! :mad::confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] flash1969:
i have read every post in this thread atleast twice, and i must say this is a first.

so let me start with, did you perform "TASK 29" before you installed the new ROMs

if not find it, run it, save it, use it before EVERY ROM update, it is a nice TOOL that wipes your phone and will ellimate most every bug YOU THINK YOU HAVE, so try it out.

you run it the same as a rom update, when the phone reboots and vibrates,.. hold the volume DOWN button in and push reset in until TRI-COLOR screen reappears then install your new rom...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] geminiman7:
@flash1969 I tried "Task 29" to no avail. Cleared everything, re-installed ROM again. Phone/Internet worked. Then I performed soft-reset and phone permanently disabled.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Have you tried going back to an older ROM, or a stock ROM, to see if the problem goes away ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
EDIT: Disregard.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Airwolf00:
Running Energy.RHODIUM.21682.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Oct.20 at the moment on my TP2 and I have lot's of stability issues. The previous ROMS had barely any issues, but this version is crashing multiple times a day.

First I've to mention multiple crashes from Arkswitch. When it crashes the phone becomes completely unstable and requires a restart. Most often the crash is caused by launching Opera.

The phone also often crashes by watching photo's in fullscreen. It doesn't like switching to landscape mode and also browsing to other photo's often results in an unresponsive phone.

And last but not least, the restart button (in the start menu) resets my dim Backlight to 10 seconds constantly. Yes, even when I change it back to 1 minute, it's back to 10 seconds after the phone goes to sleep mode. The only fix for this is up/down grade to a new ROM...

ps. This is happening to me in, let's say, the last 5 ROM releases.

Not sure if the 25th release fixes these issues, but hopefully this feedback will be used in former releases :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
1. & 2. It sounds like you're running low on RAM. Try using a different start menu like the compact start menu to save some.

3. Hold down the power button and slide to restart instead of going through the start menu.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Yorkshiretaff:
Yup... definitely having the same problem :eek:

Your fix has stopped the problem, but just wondering where the 'enable data service for time' option was? Can't find it anywhere :confused:

Cheers...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monomer888:
Bit of a long shot, but you could try reflashing the radio (or trying another radio version).

This might not be a new thing. If the backlight dim setting resets to 10 secs after any soft reset, then try the following:

The system regenerates a "LockLevel" folder after renaming it, but the dim timeout setting should stay where you set it even after soft resets.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monomer888:
Try: Settings TAB > Data Services > Internet time synchronization
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Airwolf00:
Cheers, I'll give it a try ;-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Airwolf00:
Haven't tried the compact menu yet, but i"ll give it a go. Though I have to mention that Arkswitch crashed a couple a times after a reboot of my phone and launching Opera straight away. So it doesn't look like a mem issue to me in the first place.

I've tried several resets (also via that option) but it's all not working. Anyway i'll give the REG key fix a go.

...thanks for the quick replies guys!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Opera has been known to crash when you still have free RAM. If your RAM is less than 40MB, then it is highly likely to crash out and take Arkswitch down in the flaming carnage. Give a lighter start menu a go. You'll be amazed with the results. Going from the normal start menu to the CSM gains you about 40MB normally. I'm running steady around 80-90MB during the day.

Sorry that I didn't specify in my initial post. But I downloaded the 21916 versions of Touch of Glass & GTX and Bubble Breaker wasn't working. But I found out what the problem was. The shorcut was broken. So I went into the root folder, copy and pasted it into the proper folder and it worked perfectly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] geminiman7:
I just tested with last stable ROM I used (from August). I'm shocked that the issue is now happening with that now. After installing the ROM everything works until after a soft reset. It seems like I've sort-of "bricked" my phone after installing the October release. Very frustrated...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] geminiman7:
@flash1969 - Question: Allthough I went ahead and tried your recommendation, what was the point of this? Because a hard reset wipes everything completely. No offense but performing "Task 29" (including time to research what the heck it was) seemed like a waste of time...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
Hard reset just wipes the memory exclusive of the ROM (leaves ROM intact). Task29 wipes the ROM portion of the memory, so you start with a clean slate when you flash a new ROM. Task29 has been known to clear up lots of random bugs, freezes, etc.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
No such thing as a "sort of brick". Either its permanently bricked, or not. If you can still get to the bootloader, you can likely recover. Just a matter of how to get there.

Try flashing the stock ROM. I also like the idea of flashing the radio, try stock/shipped radio for your version first.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
What method do you use to flash?

I recommend flashing from storage card, instead of USB.

Task 29 cleans up relics from old ROMs. NRGZ28 has said that if you only flash Energy ROMs, you should not need to use it. But, that does not mean that you don't ned to do it if you ever flashed a different ROM.

Also, it has been known to fix strange issues that cannot be explained and others are not reproducing. It cleans up areas of the ROM memory that otherwise would not get written during a flash.

Also, make sure you do at least 1 hard reset without usign XDA_UC or installing anything. You need to be 100% sure that it is not being caused by something you installed or a setting thatyou applied.

You may also want to try RHODDIAG.NBH I think that exists. I know RAPHDIAG.NBH exists for Raphaels.

A google search will find RHODDIAG.nbh on htcpedia.

I am not a member there.

I have one major problem with setting time. Yesterday there was a

time change

from summer

to

winter time

. And now I can not set the correct time.

1) I set up the correct time zone

2) and set the correct time

3) When I reset the device, the time is set forward by 1 hour.

Where is the problem? Thank you very much!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] IgwanaRob:
Use Tarkim's keyboard remapper and set one of your hard keys to use the close option (I use the back arrow key, set long press to close). Now you can close almost any program with that key.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stevedebi:
I had this happen yesterday. I finally figured out that whoever is providing the weather had a server that wasn't responding. I deleted the custom (2nd) weather location and my "roving" location updated fine. Later on last night I tried my custom location again, and it started working. Since I did nothing to change my phone configuration (not even soft reset), I conclude that the weather server was down.

There are other excellent suggestions in FAQ if one has longer term issues with weather. This was a temporary thing.

EDIT: Actually, I think it was the 30th that I experienced this issue...

I don't wanna say perfect since whenever I do I jinx myself and my phone goes crazy right after I say it, but it's the closest thing to perfect that I've ever seen...

Unemployed student right now so waitin til I get some funds...lol

Oh ya, got ur roms on 3 of my friends phones and they love em as well!! 2 fuzes and an HD2!

sometimes few files left from old rom might cause problem. task 29 wipe the device for the new rom. this way no old file is left and the rom installation is clean. you know with clean flashing your phone is gonna be fast and bugs free.

Something I am having trouble with (other than not having the ability to select my other folders to syncronize) is that I at one point mistakenly creasted a second hotmail account. I have since deleted it, like 5 times. It keeps reappearing.

Anyone having any ideas on what could be causing it to get recreated?:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
Yep. Back in August. AT&T was selling them for 1 penny. Extended my contract by 2 years. That's why I wanted that WVGA splash / boot screen graphic : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8196778&postcount=28075

Now, I just need to sell my 2 Fuzes before the bottom completely falls out of that market.

I have never had a ghost type issue that required a Task29 and I flash just about every time NRGZ28 releases a ROM.

A month or so ago, I was doing a Task29 before each flash. I noticed no benefit.

But, Task29 has been reported by many to fix strange errors that cannot be easily reproduced by others. So, I do recommend that everyone learn how to do it. Then, perform a Task29 before reporting any strange issues.

Task29 should not actually be needed, since a bit can only be 0 or 1. When flashing, you are setting all the bits that define the ROM.

It's not like a hard disk where files will be fragmented.

Most issues are caused by things users have installed or settings that they have altered. So, they can be corrected by renaming XDA_UC to something else. Then Hard Reset. Use it the way NRGZ28 made it.

I think the only exception I have seen is with Cookie 2.0 and keeping the multiple widget pages.

Since changing thoses settings I still have not had Sense randomly reset.

Again. Everyone should know how to Task29. And everyone should do it before reporting strange issues. Especially more than a day after a ROM release, let alone a week.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wmg316:
I would highly recommend using JVH3's Weather City Editor. His app offers two weather servers...and historically if I've had one of the servers act up...or go down...I have always successfully been able to change to the other server to get it working again. I may just be lucky...but I think it's a great app!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
Love the praise, but the 2nd server is down. It was Conflippers weather server and he has let it go since leaving. It just finally stopped working about a month ago.

The app does allow for entering a custom URL. Maybe someone will make one.

I have thought about doing it myself, since then I could also provide AccuWeather code lookup within the app.

In the thread there is a link to a site to get accuweather codes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wmg316:
Hmmm...I stand corrected...sorry for the bad info. I guess it has been a while (well over a month) since I've had to switch servers.

That's wonderful news!! :D ;) Can't wait til you get it done!!! LOL

Seriously though, that would be great!

I'm sure new ROMs will be coming soon, since it's been 4 days, but I don't know what could be improved.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I still like 1.8.5, but it's good to know that you can still get that functionality in 2.0. CHT2.0 is still just too much, in my opinion. I know some folks like it, but I'm still not sold. I played with it for a few weeks when ToG came out. I'm back on GTX1.8.5 now, though.

I doubt we'll see an new ROM for a while. Aside from theme fixes here and there, NRG hasn't done much but swap builds. We're already using the latest 216xx version. The last build released was 22047. That was on the 28th this month. Unless he's planning to switch branches, I think we'll be waiting for a while.

At this point, you can see that we aren't seeing any real issues. There are sporadic ones that only a few people get, but for the most part this ROM is closing in on "perfection." :D I would like to see a few more options on the Long press end key menu, like wifi and bluetooth, but I could just use the toggles in CHT for that.
