NRGZ28's previous ROMS had Barnes and noble's ereader tab installed, Then he took it out and added eraeder tab as an addon HOWEVER, the addon he added is for border's not B&N... any one know ehere I can get the BN tab? I have the app but would love it as a tab. NRGZ28- any chance of getting it back? All.. Feel free to PM me as I only have my phone and it's easier to check pm's than the board all the time. Thanks!

I loaded the Aug 10 MaxSense 23128 Rom and so far it is one of the best I've tried as far as memory management goes. However, I am only getting Edge service, no 3G.

Has anyone else had this problem ?? Should I just re-flash and see if the problem goes away ?

Thanks.

Also to the previous poster, I've also had the non-stretching wallpaper problem, and it just seems to go away after a re-boot or 2.

As long as you are only locking it to prevent yourself from accidentally doing things by bumping the touch screen.

Slide to unlock does not provide a secure way to lock the device to prevent someone else from accessing it. Just open the keyboard and use the internet button. Now you can access the start menu.

And you can't use it for the pin lock if your company pushes a pin lock security policy to your phone through exchange.

It is very nice for protection against yourself accidentally doing things though. Very responsive and low memory usage.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
Very good idea. I just mapped ArkSwitch.exe to PTT double click.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mark72501:
Yeah, this has been an issue for awhile now...not sure why it does that, though. Maybe it's something NRG can fix but it may not be. maybe mmalka adding it to the bug log will get it checked out, if it hasn't been before.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] NRGZ28:
It's been an issue with 23XXX builds for as long as I can remember. I've seen it happen in other ROMs as well. I'm writing that one off as an MSFT bug...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] toucan:
As Steve mentioned the SRs may help....

I have had this two different times. This most recent time (last month) I changed the wallpaper to another picture and then changed it back and that stretched it back out...

I would really like to flash Dinik Energy unfortunately I have tried several times and have been unable to complete a download of ANY of the Energy ROM's.

Every time it get to 0% left but doesn't complete, and the files are still locked and corrupted.

Is there a mirror that I could use? or does anyone have any suggestions?

First off, thank you for the response & detailed info! Sounds like you are using the 23128 ROM (which has the Android Style Lockscreen), the 21911 ROM does not have it, though I wish it did.

Does anyone know of a cab that will install the Android style lockscreen on the 21911 ROM? I've searched for this around the thread a few times, and a number of folks have asked, but I can't find one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] SteveB2175:
Well, now I'm getting 3G, I didn't change anything on the phone, maybe AT&T had a service interruption for a few hours ??

I had tried out the Mini HTC Lockscreen 2.0 WVGA.cab on some 21xxx roms a few months back. It appears to be the the same in function & appearance to the one NRG now cooks in. I really liked the look & function of it and am always happy to find a few MB of extra ram :) Unfortunately I don't use it as it always managed to unlock in my pocket. I have the same issue with the version currently cooked in :( so I revert back to the stock wm lockscreen.

Yes, links to mirrors were posted in this thread several times. Search for the word "mirror".

Also, you may want to try downloading with a different browser.

Retaining Settings when Upgrading ROM

Is there a way to retain all your settings as you do each ROM upgrade (within the same version of course, ie. sense cookie)?

I know you can backup with PIM back up, but i meant more for the "people" tab to remain the same, tab orders, preference settings, etc? Or does this all have to be redone everytime an update occurs?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jurgy1:
settings exports and also I thought that was what the XDA_UC was for? Have you imported and exported between upgrades with that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
CHT has a feature to export/import its setting. Also, NRGZ cooked in the ROM (under tools) a program called "Settings Export" which allows you to export your Sense Tabs and Sense Settings, so that XDA_UC could import them when you flash a new ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] xcommun:
I haven't tried that App, is that what that does?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Ramsfan_Jim:
I know it's not recommended on here - but Sprite Backup works great for me between ROMs.

It's not recommended because it does copy everything - so will bring some registry settings which may not be optimal on the new ROM. Periodically its worth reloading everything after a flash, but if you flash regularly it works well and saves a lot of work each time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] xcommun:
Settings Exporter... nice! DIdnt even know that was there, thats exactly what i was looking for.. incredible.. thanks for all the quick replies

Input Link in Personal Folder

Here's the fix for putting the Input settings back in the "Personal" folder (Start, Settings, Personal folder):

The Input icon is hidden by default on this version. Simply remove the value of "Redirect" from the following registry key to place back into Personal folder:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Input

After deleting the "Redirect" registry value and soft resetting, Input back in Personal folder.

task 29

I'm about to flash the august 10th version, and was hoping someone could provide a link for a working task 29 (and maybe instructions?) as every time I download it either the file is corrupted or is doesn't actually do anything.

Screen time-out error

I have had this problem for a couple months now. When the keyboard is open, and the screen times-out and turns off, nothing will turn it back on short of closing the keyboard, hitting the power button, then reopening the keyboard. Is this a bug anyone else can confirm?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] evotion:
I had that problem. It's an issue with the hardware. Call t-mobile and they'll replace it.

At the top-right of the page your looking at, there is a "Search" field...

A quick search of "task 29 rhodium" gave me this result
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
That is a nice bit of information.

It is less important with the Rhodium than with the Fuze, since the SIP selection appears so quickly here.

For a while I was confused on how to hide and show it. With the Raphael, a tap would hide or show it. A long hold would display the SIP selector.

With this, a tap shows the SIP selector. A tab on the zoom bar directly below it shows and hides it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmd512:
Excellent, thank you sir! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monomer888:
That is an excellent tip! :D

Bear in mind this only applies to the 23xxx builds I think, because the 21xxx builds have the little triangle icon. Previous information had been to tap the left side of the icon (as opposed to the right side) to hide the SIP, e.g. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7595416&postcount=7426

Your solution to tap the zoom bar is much more elegant. I like it! :)

If you like the functionality of the X button, you can use the Rhodium Keyboard Config to map the start menu button to "Close Active Window".

I've tried this one before to no real avail, but I'm willing to give it another go as it was probably an issue with me. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wmg316:
That is the one that I use...and as far as I know, the only one for Rhodium!?!?

What steps are you taking?

Here's what I do (I flash ROM's with USB-PC connection):

Turn off device

While device is off, hold the volume-down button down and plug device into USB connected to PC

Come to the bootloader screen (red, green, blue, white screen); it should read USB on the bottom of the bootloader screen

Execute Task 29 on your PC (by running the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file extracted from the Task 29 zip download). This step is just like flashing a ROM; it lasts about 10 seconds; when done, the device will reboot and "hang" on the startup splash screen

Unplug and take the battery out for 3-4 seconds; replace battery; hold volume down and plug in USB cable to get back to bootloader screen; it should read USB on the bottom.

Flash NRG's ROM (or ROM of your choice)

Just upgraded to 23xxx Cookie Aug 10 and it's running beautifully, including great signal strength with a .77 radio. My profuse thanks and gratitude for another great NRG release! But is anyone else having any funky issues with My Location?

In the past, My Location sometime put me at one or two suburbs away from where I am when at home, but other than that have not had problems with it. As soon as I upgraded from Aug 4 to Aug 10 last night, My Location put me either put me in the "United States" or else locked in an area about 50 miles from home.

Went downtown for lunch today and had full signal strength. My Location showed me in a suburb about 15 miles north of Denver even though I was in the middle of downtown. Google Maps couldn't lock me with much more accuracy, but Bing found me in the restaurant I was sitting in. Fired up Google Maps again, and this time it found me. As soon as I went back to the home screen, My Location had me in Denver (finally correct).

Now back home, and having the same issues as earlier.

Normally I'd blame this on bad cell tower information, but the issue showed up as soon as I reflashed last night. EVERYTHING else is working properly, so I can't lay this on a bad flash. Any other ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] doug3673:
You sir... were ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. It was the battery moving around when I slid open the hardware keyboard. Thanks!!

So strange. I find that if I guide the keyboard open with my hands instead of letting it *POP* open, the phone never ever shuts off.

I wedged a super small folded piece of paper in-between the battery and the battery compartment so it never moves around anymore.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I recommend flashing the new AT&T ROM first. This will update your radio. Then My Location works great on the AT&T network with 3G or without 3G.

Some towers put out some strange information. I am convinced that it comes from the tower. When I am home, in Minnesota, near the Saint Croix River, which is across the river from Hudson Wisconsin, it shows my Location as Troy. For the life of me, I could not figure out what that was. Turns out that there is a tower on a golf course in Hudson Wisconsin, called "Troy Burne Golf Club" which is just a mile or 2 from home if you could take a straight line path. My guess is that the golf course owns the tower and leases it to AT&T.

Prior to getting that radio installed, I could not get my location to work at all when home and on a 3G connection.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stevedebi:
Well, look at the bright side - at least we don't have to download it very often!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
igo 8 is not cooked into the ROM.

You should describe the problem you are actually having. crazy is not a description. Did find it crazy fast? Was it crazy that it found it? Or was something displayed that you and most would not expect?

If it is not working with the ROM, you need to describe which version of the ROM that you have flashed.

21xxx vs 23xxx

Titanium, Sense 2.1, or 2.5, Cookie, Dinix, GTX, Dinik GTX, Max Sense.

It would also be helpful to identify the last Energy ROM that you flashed that it worked properly with.

Keyboard mapping problem?

Can anyone else verify this?

From Home screen, open keyboard and try type any number or any letter from "Y" over. Is it mapped correctly? None of my numbers from 1-4 work, and 6-0 are mapped to something different. Also, the letters are either numbers or symbols.

This ONLY happens from the home screen or sense tabs, but not in an actual SMS, email, opera or any other program, etc. I have tested this on two different Touch Pro 2's, and they both have this bug. One is running as shown in the sig below, the other is running Standard Energy Aug 10.

Anyone? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
Come on guys! A little bit of reading before posting, please...

1- The BARS issue was resolved a few incarnations of the ROM ago. This was plenty discussed here BEFORE and AFTER it was fixed.

2- Task29 even has a sticky in XDA. A little bit of searching would help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
The question you should be asking is why for Titaniam is 23128 14 MB smaller than 21911?

For Sense 2.1, 23128 is larger than 21911.

easy-share.com is slow, but you can always pay them a little money to get it faster.

Wouldn't it be easier just to flash the .95 radio?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
Easy Mac verses a box of Mac and Cheese.

How easy does it need to be?

The AT&T ROM is a single executable to run on your PC. Pretty easy to flash. Not like you have to set anything up after flashing it.

It would actually have been more work for me to flash the radio seperately, since I would have needed to navigate to the page with the radios. I had already followed the link to the AT&T ROM.

Yes, but then I'd have to reflash my Energy ROM, re-sync to Outlook, set up, etc, etc, etc. Or I could just reflash the new radio in 2 minutes and I'm back in business immediately. :D

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion about using the new radio. Alas, I'd already flashed it last week, and went back to .77 because that has given me the best overall signal of all the radios I've tried. Different radios work better with different ROMs as well as doing better in different areas.

Back to my original topic. When I manually add my city, I get proper weather updates. Guess something between this ROM and radio, Google's servers, and my crappy home reception (thanks again for THAT, AT&T) is messing with the My Location service... Ah well, at least one of the above will change again soon!

Hey guys, I tend to browse this thread every few days for updates and the latest qualms about the new firmware, resolutions to problems.. etc, and frequently I see people talking about Task 29 between ROMs to wipe it and what not, is this really necessary? I've never had a problem flashing from one "Energy" rom to the next, and I have my device on, running, and then I flash and let the RUU delete everything and flash ROMs.

Question is, is this tolerable, or will it severely hurt my system? [Getting Desire in 2 weeks on USCC anyway, but just curious.]

Second thing is this; my keyboard map is a bit screwed up, and I understand why, but is there a setting built in to change it to the USCC style keyboard? I've installed the USCC carrier provisioning cab after each flash, but I've never noticed a difference... Any help is appreciate!

Thanks NRG and all those who watch the thread to help people, kudos!

When I flash, XDA_UC sets everything up. There is nothing that I manually need to setup. Aside from enabling button tones in the dialer, which is new to August 10th.

The user that I was originally responding to was about to flash a ROM, so none of that really was an issue.

In this thread, I posted the contents of my XDA_UC folder. If you don't yet have a fully automated XDA_UC flash process, I suggest downloading it and taking a little time to set your own up using it as a reference.

After looking at it, feel free to PM me or post a question in the XDA_UC thread if you have any questions about setting something up.

With my latest flash, I tried a 14mb pagepool as well as the other tweaks mentioned yesterday. I haven't done the start menu tweak because I LIKE my start menu the way it is.

I find now I have a bit more free ram on boot, and I can go longer without a soft reset but I'm still losing memory that CleanRam can't seem to recover. I'm only on day 2 (or is it 3?) of this ROM but I'm not seeing that much overall difference in my ram usage.

Did I mention earlier today that I'm pretty stinkin' happy with this release?

It isn't neccessary - you can flash without performing Task29 - but it is recommended. If you have weirf issues after a flash and ask for suggestions, you'll get a whole lot of folks telling you "Perform Task29. It helped me."

daily freeze

Hi,

I´m using Cookie 'Energy' style ROM from Aug 10 and it ist great.

But I have min one freeze a day.

I think it is related to the CHT lockscreen. But I dont´t want to miss this gread

and configurable lockscreen. Has anyone the same problem or maybe a solution ?

Thanks,

One other thing that has recurred - not sure whether this is 2.1 specific or not.

When I receive a new SMS and click on it to respond, the view screen only shows older SMS's - not the most recent message (or messages), making it impossible to view the previous message when responding.

If you go through the 'threaded' view it works fine (meaning its not a major issue). Anyone else spotted this - or found a solution?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Frank_071:
Yup. Confirmed. HTC Touch Pro 2 with NRG 23128 and having exactly the same problem. It seems as if the keyboard is in some (unexistant...) NUMLOCK state as laptops tend to have: 6-8 = 1-3, Y-I = 4-6, H-K = 7-9, N=0. It might have something to do with the custom keyboard layout. Checking this...
