Until this ROM, this never happened before.

I only sync Contacts, Calendar, Mail, with Outlook (which is connected to an Exchange Server). Never had any problems before with XP or Vista (and I had a Kaiser and a TP, before the TP2). It only started today, after I flashed the new ROM, what makes me wonder. My settings are all the same (I use Sashimi to provision), and I did not install anything I did not have before.

I would understand if the first sync would take a little bit long (as it always did, because it is copying everything from the PC to the phone), but I see no reason for it to take forever to sync when everything is already synchronized.

The odd thing is that it eventually ends, and normally!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I have noticed the constant resync with exchange, but only before I put my SIM card in.

With no SIM card, the time is not set.

I think it "thinks" it needs to sync with the server, since it is much different than the last items retrieved and the time on the server.

I flash with no SIM. Then I sync with exchange through Wi-Fi. Then after setting most of the phone up, including facebook and twitter, I shut off the Wi-Fi and put the SIM in.

I have my exchange account setup to get email as it arrives. I would think the problem would be avoided if it were set to sync every 15 minutes.

Note: When flashing with no sim and synching with exchange over Wi-Fi before inserrting the SIM, I have seen this behavior always. Even before I upgraded to the Tilt 2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
Not my case. I flashed with the SIM card in, via USB. Then I synchronized via USB as I always did. My Exchange account was (and is) always setup to get e-mails as they arrive.

Synchronizing over the air (with SIM) is working fine. The issue is just via USB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] RemE:
Thanks for the suggestion, I have the purchased CorePlayer loaded, just haven't tried it for YouTube! Worth a shot!

I thought I'd add that I had not flashed in about 2 or more months and have been on 21916 Cookie 1.8.5 mainly because of SlingPlayer as it works best with this.

I was reluctant to try Cookie 2.0 but I flashed 21916 Jan26 Cookie 2.0 and configured it minimal to match 1.8.5 and was plesantly suprised to find it faster and smoother than ever before.

Now I'm wondering if 21916 Feb1 with the new sense would be noticeably better?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] motisu:
I've also had this problem for ages. I flash with SIM in via USB and right after XDA_UC finishes, I copy over my PIM.VOL file so I have all contacts right away. Same problem that resync over wifi or data connection works, but via USB takes forever. I just let it sit for a while and eventually, it manages to finish.

I should note that the backlight scales the brightness correctly....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Monfro:
Also in the CDMA forum some users reported problems syncing calendar through USB connection.

From what i read they had no problems with 29007...maybe 28244 hands synchronization in a different way...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] RemE:
Hmmm, I'm feeling stupid. I have CorePlayer and I found the YouTube section, searched to my videos, it displays them complete with color icons, BUT, for the life of me I can't get it to play any YouTube content at all. If I touch any video, it highlights in light blue but does nothing...

Arrgh!

Lock-ups and crashes with 29007

Hi guys, I dont know if anyone is having issues with the 29007 Jan26 release of this ROM. When I receive SMS or calls while I am running another program (let's say I am watching a video or listening to music), most of the time, the screen will lock-up or will just go dark. I did not have this issue with 21916 ROM. I know that the phone itself did not lock-up since I can still hear the video/music playing in the background and I can still speak with the person calling me. It;s just that the screen will not light up and the buttons will not work. Last resort is to manually reset the phone using the small reset button.

Any of you guys had this issue? I really love this ROM since it is very responsive.

Would it do any good to also upgrade the ROM Radio (if any new ones exists out there). Sorry as I am a noob when it comes to ROM issues. I am techie enough to isolate issues and to actually flash a ROM (well, following good instructions of course).

I don not OC the phone nor installed any other apps. I flashed the phone twice already with the new ROM with the same results. I then placd the 21916 ROM back and issue disappeared. Again, I really like this ROM and want to use this instead of 21916. :o

Thanks!

@ ramilbasa

I too am using the 29007 Jan26 ROM on an TMobile HTC Touch Pro 2. I can not replicate your problem. I played an mp3 via HTC Music Player, called the cel from a landline, and the cel answered, paused the music, took the call, and returned to music after hangup.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Hmmm... Which version are you using? It seems to work well for me. Are you single tapping, or double tapping? To play one of the videos, you need to double tap it.

Try a task29 and then reflash. I have not seen any reproducible SODs on an Energy ROM in over six months now.

Make a request for one in the themes section and perhaps someone will oblige you. Either that or they will direct you to a dialer that is already skinned. The only user I'm familiar with that is doing any skinning is Inando84. Maybe send him a PM or something to see if it's even feasible.

New WM builds but not available

I have looked at DFT website with Google Translate, searching for new WM builds released.

I have seen there are roms cooked with 29009, 29011, 29013...but these builds weren't released to public...

I hope that in the next days everything will be ok again, so we will have new juice also from Microsoft!!

I am a little curious on what packages are cooked in 01feb roms...only the new manila (only Core, or all/near all the new tabs) or also some of the new 2020/2021 packages (there are a lot in the last Oboe rom)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
The DFT FTP site went down for a while before Christams, so our supply of new builds was cut off. They told us it was going to be a couple of weeks before the FTP server was back online. It has been six weeks now and the FTP site is still offline. This is where our builds were being released from, so until we find someone to release new builds, I'm afraid we're SOL.

The new ROM contains the updated manila core as well as the new tabs. I can't confirm the rest of the updates to the ROM, however.

Pandora / Bluetooth / tested / works great

A while back, I posted this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7881552&postcount=26952

It is a post of mine that has a link to a WVGA Pandora download for windows mobile.

Last night, I was using it in my vehicle, streaming music from Pandora to my phone. My phone was linked through Bluetooth to my car stereo playing the music through my vehicle's speakers. Worked perfectly.

And, when I received a call, the call went thorugh bluetooth fine and the music immediately resumed after the call.

Note: Other than setting upa Pandora account (1 time) and installing the cab (each flash), nothing else is needed.

Figured there might be some new people in the thread that aren't aware of the unofficial WVGA Windows Mobile Pandora.

Core version 1.3.6 Jul 2010 latest I've seen. When I double tap, it switches to the player screen, shows the animated wait icon for about 1.5 sec and then sits. I tried it on 3G and WiFi.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mmalka:
I've been using Pandora for a long time, but i believe it is not the Rhodium version, as the fonts on the screen are tiny. However, the download link on the post you provided goes to Megaupload and it says the item was removed. Could you post the cab here?

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
The fonts on this are small too. I will upload the cab. I have linked to that post before, so I will add it there.

I have a meeting in 5 minutes, so I'll do the upload after that.

Cab and screenshots are now attached to the post that I linked to.

Don't ask me why, but today the sync is working fine, taking just a few seconds. Very odd...

Now I believe I can say this ROM is flawless :D

What menu option are using when running the 29007 Rom?

It could be that you are running out of memory.

If you are using the default menu system try switching to compact.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I'm not sure what to tell you. I'm using an older version than you are (1.2.3). I didn't even know there had been an update. It works perfectly fine for me over wifi. I haven't tried it over 3G as I rarely even need to use it.

It is the correct one. The app was made by a user here (skyler17). It was made for use with the stylus. Pandora never officially released a WM version of the app. I would recommend trying Slacker Radio or, my personal favorite, last.fm. I prefer last.fm because it is community based, rather than user based like Pandora. This means, that last.fm will recommend songs for you based on what other users with the same interests listen to. You will come across more artists that you've never heard of this way. The only caveat that some may find is that last.fm is $3 a month for the mobile service, but free for the PC service. It's a paltry sum for me, so I happily pay it a support a wonderful app that is actually supported on our OS.

The original Pandora app thread can be found HERE.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I think the one I have is the same as the one you are using. Same name and size.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] RemE:
Thanks for the thoughts, yeah, Core has had many updates, I bought thru Mobihand and they notify of updates to it.

1.2.3

1.2.4

1.2.5

1.3.0

1.3.2

1.3.6

No clue how to make mine work with the YouTube...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I tried to get through to Core Player's website, but found that Google has it block for malicious code or something to that effect. I'll just download it via less than legal means and hope that my legit registration will carry over to this version. I'll edit this post with any findings.

EDIT: You'll need to change the download options for YouTube content for it to work properly with 1.3.6. In CorePlayer, go into Menu > Tools > Settings > Select Page > Channels. In here you'll find the YouTube options. Change the preferred Format to whichever one works properly for you. I seem to be doing good with Medium Quality FLV format. The default was low quality 3GP. I wasn't able to get any of the H264 content to play at all. I didn't even bother with RTSP.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I've thought about trying slacker radio. Not going to use last.fm. I already pay for 2 xm radio subscriptions. Don't need another monthly fee for music. I added the link to the original thread to my post where I just attached the cab.

I'm kind of thinking that it may be possible to create an exe that launches it. Then, that exe would have a handle to the process. It would have it's own UI, with finger friendly buttons. It would send messages to the original apps window to control it. Not going to have time to try this today or this week.

Are there any other programmers in this thread?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I've never tried Slacker, myself. I have heard it mentioned before as an alternative, though. Wouldn't it be simpler to just skin the existing Pandora app? I think ace10134 was trying to do the same thing a while back, but he stopped development on it without an update. He's still active in the forum, so maybe he could guide someone looking to improve it or something.

Yes...I overclock my device to 787.2 with Iwfratz's

WiMoSpeed

.

I do not use 219xx series ROM's (WM 6.5 branch); the 6.5.x branches (29007 and 28244 were the latested cooked by NRGZ28) are MUCH nicer and more finger friendly IMO. I don't think that either of NRGZ28's ROM's "need" WiMoSpeed...but overclocking does enhance the speed on my device.

EDIT: And I do recommend overclocking if you lower the pagepool to free more RAM as I do. Lowering the pagepool does slow things down a bit!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jakfish:
I'm listening to slacker on my tp2 as I post. I think it's pretty good and it certainly has shown me that there's a lot of unknown-to-me artists. Compared to last.fm, slacker plays less of your favorites but has a much wider range of new stuff.

No Joy for me, I had changed the preffered format to several different ones from the default low 3GP, nada. Double clicking any video thumbnail now yields "File not found!" so it's somehow not passing the url correctly to the player. Initially when I could check the top left and select "Media Properties" it shows the url of the selected video, e.g "URL : youtube://vL56NP5d96Q".

Oh well, hate it when things just don't work for one and perfectly fine for another...

Ah, that is one of the files in the WM theme. That must be one that NRG has in his theme. So maybe just changing the theme to another one might help. We could also just ask NRG to add another theme (tsk) file to the rom so when you flash you can set that theme as the default with the new png in it?

Feb 01 ROM Tweak: Black Dialer Pad

Before and after (image included in the rar):

In NRG's ROM Feb.01 (and others probably), the two bmp files for the dialer pad itself are found in Phone/Windows: Assets_dialer_Normal.bmp and Assets_dialer_Pressed.bmp. Included in the rar.

I just inverted the two files w/ Photoshop to obtain the custom look above.

Read Me included in the rar:

Download & copy Dialer Black Joe Bleau.cab to memory card & run from there with Total Commander. Restart the phone if it does not do it automatically.

To revert to NRG's default: uninstall the cab: > Home > Slider bar to Settings > Application > Remove Programs and restart the phone.

OR:

Download & unrar the file attached to this message.

Copy the Dialer Inverted Joe Bleau folder to the memory card, use Total Commander to copy both Assets_dialer_Normal.bmp and Assets_dialer_Pressed.bmp found inside to Windows and restart phone to see the result.

To revert to NRG's white default: copy the Dialer NRG Default folder to the memory card, use Total Commander to copy the files inside to Windows and restart phone to see the result.

Note that you can edit these files and chose the colors you like or whatever & keep the exact same name & file extension & repeat the step above.

One can find many cabs that makes further dialer modifications by searching in the Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps Forum.

Feedback is always appreciated. :cool:

I read your later post where you mentioned that activesync worked as it should the next day. This happens to me fairly often. If the sync appears to be taking longer than it should, I found that I can unplug the USB cable, reboot the phone, and plug it back in. The second time always finishes quickly. Maybe, there are a few remaining items that do not get synced for some reason or perhaps the two devices do not notify each other that the sync is finished.

You may want to list the following:

The ROM you have installed

Wether or not you used Task29 before flashing

The device that you are using

Other apps you installed (that may be causing this problem)

This is the first mention of this problem in a long while...so more information from you is needed to diagnose what is happening.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
wmg is right that you need to post more information when asking for help.

However, this is probably because you're using the CHT lockscreen. It's been a known issue for quite some time. Just use one of the built-in lockscreens from the ROM instead, or use a third party app like S2U2.
