Contacts - Notes

I have a question that I will appreciate if someone can answer. I have been flashing for nearly 6 years now and when I like a ROM I tend to stick with it for years. The last ROM I had (For YEARS!) was for a Kaiser device and the ROM HyperDragon and yes I donated.

I recently upgraded to a Tilt2 (AT&T) and tested this ROM - Energy.RHODIUM.23554.Sense2.5.Apr.09. I love this ROM and plan to stick to this one now for a while - and yes I will donate.

My question now is as follows. For years now, the contact application has a NOTES tab where I store information (free text) for each contact. It is in Outlook, in all the prior WM OS that I have tested and installed and also in the original Tilt2 HTC ROM. With the Energy ROM 23554 I can not find the notes anywhere. Again - this is a NOTES tab or secion within the CONTACTS to add notes (free text) for contacts. Am I missing something? Is the notes tab (section) missing or gone in this ROM entirely?

Thank you

Contact Number Icons

I searched xda, but could not find a solution.

When I create a text message and type the persons name in the "To" field, all of the phone number options for the person have the same icon (mobile) as opposed to Mobile, Work, Fax, etc. Is there a fix for this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ITNV:
To view the notes: Open the contact card for the contact. Click the Menu Button. Click "See More Information". Click "Notes" at the top of the screen.

From there you can click the Menu button (to the right of the OK button at the bottom of the screen) and Edit to edit the notes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ITNV:
I don't think there is a fix... best bet is to click the To button to the left of where you enter the name and select the person from your contact list. Then you can select which number to use and they are all labeled.

Idea for Icons!

Doing a UI facelift/update to the "black" ROMs today. If you got any suggestions for icons/wallpapers/taskbars... etc send em my way :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] bjevers:
I just noticed I only have the Energy wallpaper on my home tab running the non GTX Cookie 23554 rom.

EDIT: This was on the April 9th rom. I have now flashed build 23557 April 11th and the wallpaper is on all tabs again.

Electrons, Ions, mA Hours, Chemistry, Physics, & Voodoo

I have worked on extending my battery life, as well, and I guess most of us have our own methods that we develop on this issue. The single biggest battery draw, after radio is this huge, bright, hi-res screen that we know & love. Every time I turn off Energy's "Fullbright" default he always set's to ("the better to show you my awesome eye candy, my dear" he he) and set it to auto adjust I weep, as it really takes the visual punch out of it. Auto is just too dim. Alternately, I have tried many, many different manual settings, but I am always unhappy with the "current" brightness, so constantly adjust that way.

Ultimately, what I would like do is change the parameters for auto adjust setting it to adjust to a brighter level. I started poking around in the registry, but so far have not found a setting to the auto brightness thresholds.

Any seen any work involving this? For Battery life, I consider it 2nd only to radio in importance. I have tried "Topping Up" my battery, as biggmixx does, thinking I would "cram a few more electrons in there, LOL. I have no idea if it helps, hurts, or possibly shortens the life of the battery. Lithium Ion batteries have always seemed like (black) magic to me. One of the better articles I have read (and there are a LOT of so-called "expert" opinions on the web, is this one:

The care and feeding of Li-Ion batteries

http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/helpdesk/?p=124

The guy speaks very practically on the subject of "deep discharges" etc.

Finally on the Bluetooth Beam thing. I always used to turn it off, if I happened to come across it while setting up a device, but I agree it's not very upfront or easy to find on these ROMs. I do have an easier way than changing Comm Manager - found it a while ago and have used it ever since, especially since when I DID change it as BiggMaxx suggested, Comm Manager got all kinds of screwed up! Here is where to turn off the Bluetooth Beam Receive from being always on:

Start, Settings, Bluetooth. Select the leftmost tab at top (with the gears) and expand the Advanced settings. Tap "Beam Data Exchange" and uncheck the option.

I like this method more since it requires no modifications other than to the beam setting. I have no idea how much power savings it represents, but unless you actually have friends that transfer data to you it seems a waste to have it in ready to receive mode all the time.

Anyone know if any vestiges of Push Internet are left in these ROMs, or has it been quietly buried (I hope). That was a noticeable power draw.

Notes for Contacts

It's there, but you have to dig kinda deep (not part of Sense, apparently) If you open a contact, then edit it, then choose "more" last option at bottom, you will see the native Windows Mobile 6.5 Contact info. Instead of tiny tabs, WinMo 6.5 has large finger friendly tabs along top. Notes is the tab to the left. Hope this helps.

One Caveat: Facebook integration places link info here (even says: "Do NOT Modify") I suspect you could add text AFTER this, with a few lines in between just fine, though. Hope that works for ya.

Anyone has some insides about whats new in the 2.5 23xxx Cookie home tab ROM (11April)?

Just installed the 9April ROM, and i don't want to repeat this.

Someone knows a good back up tool? Backing up installed apps/games/tools, contacts, settings ... right about everything actually :P .... anyone :D?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] deeznuts:
Use Pimbackup that's already cooked into the rom in the tools folder. Choose what u want to backup on ur sd card. Then flash a new rom, open the app, load the file on ur sd card. Very simple and always works for my contacts and appointments.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aadadams:
I have used Sprite backup for years. I still do but only for restoring a rom not for upgrading from one rom to another. I have become a big fan of XDA_UC. I am now getting back up and running in a matter of minutes. XDA_UC is included in the rom, and link to the thread for it is on the first page of this thread.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jgottlieb:
I can't see me throwing my phone at the couch as a viable solution here...

Ok, so basically, if my hard reset doesn't work (and I'm wondering if it really will), I'm going to need a card, formatted w/FAT32, formatted in a PC, and then flash the stock ROM back on...relock...and warantee the thing.

That's funny!!!

I'm waiting for the change log to update to the newest 21898. I'm hoping that at some point it'll come predone with the gtx theme as well. I have installed it myself but, when loading a rom obviously much easier when its all predone for you :P

Try Lumos. Give you the ability to Adjust how your backlight acts, plus its just alot better than the default windows Auto back light settings http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=450318

just to ask the stupid question (havnt been completely following this conversations) but are you using an SD card bigger than 1 gig? The way the higher density card are made keeps it from working. I had a problem with my 4 gig, but I went to walmart and got myself a cheap 1 gig for SD flashing and it works without fail.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stained-steel:

apr 8th 23554 max. anyone else freezing?

working pretty nicely so far

two things:

a message came up to type in my user name, pass, and domain for my tmo data server. IT came up a few times earlier today and since they are supposed to be blank, i just kept clicking OK. It finally stopped doing it. I hope it doesnt come back to haunt me

2) I am still getting freezes. I think it has somehting to do with the messaging client used for the past few months. I SR at least twice every day bc my phone locks up or lags to the point that I want to punch a baby in the face.

I have 2 8GB cards (1 class 6, 1 class 4). I haven't tried flashing yet. My specific problem is the "no sync via usb" problem. Reflashing to stock and relocking are my absolute last resort (will try the hard reset first).

I kinda want to know all the pieces that I'm going to be dealing with before I do so, only because I rely on my phone so much...

Fortunately, the warranty center is just a few miles from here, and they take walk-ins. :) According to the AT&T guy at the mall (for whatever that's worth), I may be able to get a new phone on the spot.

I have a feeling the hard reset isn't going to work, I compared the USB ports on my phone and the demo... there are 5 clearly visible leads on the demo phone's usb port on the top row... mine has the left most one on the top row seemingly "pushed down" compared to the other 4. I suspect that if that one is not connecting, it may be the source of the problem.

Incidentally, when you say the higher density cards have problems being used for flashing.... any idea what the threshold is? Problems with 2GB cards, do you think?

Thanks.

Activesync Problems

For those suffering the problem with the phone charging but Activestink not working, I've gone down the hard reset route, no better. Spoken to HTC and UPS are picking up my phone tomorrow for repair.

For those experiencing other issues with NRGs ROMs flash back to stock for a few days, suddenly you get a new perspective on the 'niggles' you have with the cooked ROM ;)

Looking forward to coming back here in about 10 days when I get the device back and discovering the delights that have been cooked up by then.

Well about the ActiveSync issue, there is a specific thread somewhere here that actually works. Long story short you have to use the SKtools and re-enable it from there :D

Do search the specific thread for more info :)

And one stupid question regarding flashing from SDcard. Does the memory card have to be empty, or can i use my regular card (with the programs etc)? Tonight I'm gonna flash the NRG Rom, i only see good reviews. The 21xx version actually, since stability is a must have and i gather that this version is the most stable. Or am I wrong?

As far as your question goes, it doesn't have to be empty (although if you end up formatting the card it will become empty :D) I'd suggest backing up the card just in case something goes wrong.

Flashed the April 11th 21898 (S2.5) ROM last night and it works like a charm.

Looking forward to see the changelog!

The ROM is getting closer to perfection with every release, but it would be nice to see the graphic glitches in the calendar getting fixed! For some reason there is a black gab between monday and tuesday (or sunday and monday, depends on your settings).

And NRG, could you make a cab to get the 'weekendcolors' back to white? Someone posted a cab in this topic, but it's removed from the host. Would be a nice addition to the Return 2 Stock CABs folder ;)

Keep up the good work!

This morror would really rock, except....

SO I love that you put a mirror up to help folks with Hotfile's restrictions, for example this morning I am trying DESPERATELY to get April 11 23557 Cookie version, and Hotfile swears I am downloading a file - THIS file in fact, when I never got to start the download. I closed browser, cleared cache, logged out, rebooted, stood on my freakin' head LOL, and NG.

So then I see your mirror again and think AHH! The answer (think I even heard harps playing) but when I hit the link, I get the 10 minute wait. No biggie, I think,

even I

can wait a lousy 10 minutes (like a junkie waiting for a fix) but... when the time was up and I hit the link again, it tells me ANOTHER 10 minute wait is in store. ARRRRGGGGHHHH!!

Not sure if I hit the link to soon, too late, hit it 2x or what, but this is the second time I have this experience. Any ideas what I am doing stupidly, because I am sure that it is me, and not the site. :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] SacTilt:
The Hotfile issue could be if someone else on your network is trying to download from Hotfile as well. I've seen that in the office.

As for RapidShare, that could just be because they are busy right now, and there are limited spots for the people who aren't paying.

Easy way to fix this..... pay for an account.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cerealfreak:
Works for both pay for a Hotfile premium and a Rapidshare premium and never have to wait again, plus you get higher speeds.

Details, details...

Wow, at first, I thought that black line was to separate weekdays from weekends, so I changed my week to "start on Monday", & lo and behold, still got the line. THIS I could live with, would not bother me, but after April 1 ROMS, chef changed the Settings Tab back to plain white & Call History (fixed the white boxes on "call type, but its still plain jane compared to what it was before) I know he works hard as hell on these, so I hate to nit-pick. It's just that one looks so much better than the other. I would go back to April 1 ROM, I saved it, but it has no eReader tab. Would go all the way back to March 9, but that has no Facebook Tab. Ahh... the pursuit of perfection!

NONE of these are deal breakers on their own, but imagine if HTC, or a chef made a ROM that you could decide what Tabs you need, and select them from a pick-list, then add in your apps, themes, dialer etc & hit: "Build it" button. I have a rich fantasy life, as you can see.
