Check the file name you downloaded again. I'd bet anything that it is Energy.RHODIUM.21916.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Jul.04.7z.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gromky:
It's from this link. I downloaded 20922 because it's newer than 21916.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
What I'm saying is that if your start menu is in the upper left, then you are using a 21916 version. Those are the ones with the older start menu layout. The 29022 SYS build uses the newer 6.5.3 start menu with the larger bottom bar.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gromky:
Well, I figured out what happened. I started flashing 20922 over activesync but the version of 21916 I flashed last year was still on the SD card. I think I screwed up my phone good because now it's effectively bricked.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
It shouldn't be bricked at all. In fact, all you should need to do now is flash the one you want via SD straight from the bootloader.

EDIT: Why was there a link in your reply to a thread about a T-Mobile Dash SDHC driver? If you flashed a Dash ROM to your Rhodium, then you might be in trouble. Try getting into the bootloader to see if it still works.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gromky:
Huh? What link?

The bootloader "works" but I'm having the problem as described here.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I suppose you just put in the wrong link. Your reply before this had a different thread linked.

Does anyone know of a fix for the broken/freezing camera in the latest build of Titanium?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] max3400:
I seem to be having a problem with my Alarm Clock for some reason and can't figure out what is happening.

Last week I had to get up @ 7:25AM so I tapped the clock on the home screen, set one alarm to 7:25 and one to 7:30 so I would not oversleep. Worked flawlessly all week so no worries there. This week, I don't really need to get up since I'm off from work, so I went to the home screen, tapped the clock and not only slid both sliders to "Off" for the alarms, I also made all alarm-clocks show 0:00.

Surprise surprise; for 7 days straight, my phone is waking me @ 7:25AM and then again @ 7:30AM.

Looked up the registry setting HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Clock and check the 3 registry-keys for all 3 alarms. All seem to be set to NOT wake me at all.

Getting quite tired of this; anyone has any idea to how to solve?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jenda.69:
It froze in last few builds. The only "solution" I found is flash Sense version of EnergyROM and disable Sense (it doesn't freeze in other versions than titanium)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I've seen this before. It has to do with the way the alarm scheduling works. The registry is just where you tell it the time, but it isn't what causes the alarm to go off. I forget the exact name of it. Something like notification queue.

If I remember correctly, searching the thread or possibly the Raphael Energy ROM thread for ghost alarm finds a solution solution.

Basically, you need to delete these extra entries that are related to clock.

Found solution that I posted a long time back.

Cfb also posted a solution a few posts before it, but that requires SK Tools, which isn't free.

Previous Rom Builds

I did a search but couldn't find it. Does anyone know where I could find previous rom build say from May or June. Looking for the Sense 2.5 23XXX Cookie v2.0 Energyrom. The newest one has been a glitch with the volume bar in the music tab. At least on my phone. Thanks guys.

Pagepool

Just for the record, what's the "normal" pagepool for the 29022 ROM's?

I find it cooked at 19 in the Dinik Glass version - is it above or below normal?

Also, increasing the PP number will shrink space but add speed OR vice versa?

Thanx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Major A:
It's above normal PP applied to RHODIUM roms. Stock PP applied by HTC is 15MB if I remember well, but dynamic PP can raise it till 32MB on Rhod. 24MB gives a very snappy experience if you don't need many extra memory left for hungry apps like iGo or Navigon and mainly need to have a Sense tabs flying.

19MB PP is not a bad compromise.

This is off-topic, but I was hoping to get some advice from my Rhodium brothers and sisters since the days of this excellent ROM and phone are numbered for many of us.

I am looking hard at Android phones, I think my time to jump will be in the next 1-3 months. But I know nothing about Android custom ROMs other than NRGZ28 is doing some. Just some basic questions to get me started, since people here have the same base of experience (Windows) as I do, for those of you who are Android-savvy:

1. Is the concept of Android custom ROMs the same, recooked to pull unwanted apps out, add interesting programs, fix bugs, the same?

2. Is there an advantage to a custom ROM in keeping the OS current? Seems Android updates come out very often, are they automatically updated to old phones or is it up to ROM chefs to do that like in Windows?

3. Is the concept the same -- Task29, Flash ROM, customize with scripts? Does Mortscript work in Android world?

4. I have looked around the Android pages and it's a little confusing. Where's the best thread to see exactly how to do it? The "How to" was always the first post of NRGZ28's page here, for example.

5. Are custom ROMs as necessary/popular as they were in the Windows world?

6. Any other recommendations on what to read to start getting smarter on the topic?

Thanks for the advice!

Thanks Bob, that should get me on my way! I read the Windows stuff hard when I first started and never had a problem, the documentation was excellent. I'll do the same once I move away. But for now I am still a Rhodium guy!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nallyvaico:
Thanx. iGo works just fine - I even happen to log out of Sense into Today if need be, by way of one handy app.

The only major problem is I can't configure wi-fi router to be seen by devices. I had tweaked with wi-fi monster though - may it be the culprit?

If anyone's going for Android, the HTC Desire Z is the way to go!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] awalt:
I am waiting for the imminent flood of phones with much higher speed d/l capability, larger higher resolution displays, multicore CPUs that are at least 50% faster, better cameras, full HD 1080p video, bigger batteries yet thinner. Desire Z was a good phone at its time but it's over a year old, it would not be prudent IMHO to jump in with an old phone now. Hardware advances very fast, I think it's better to buy a new phone; it will be obsolete fast enough.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jakfish:
Not to mention a physical keyboard :) I've recently moved to Greece and here is hawked the Nokia E7, a phone I've always wanted to see in the flesh.

It's incredibly impressive, the best keyboard I've ever seen on a phone by far. Too bad it runs Symbian 3, an absolutely dead OS, and no custom ROMS. It sells for 600 Euros in Athens, outrageous. Though I've seen it on Amazon US for 430USD.

But an E7 running Android, or even Win7, would be a sight to behold.

Meanwhile,I still find myself strangely content with my TP2,

Hello,

I just upgraded from TouchPro2 to Desire S (no hardware keyboard) and I can tell you the software keyboard of Android with spell check and corrections (even in my native language - Romanian) works perfect. I type now faster than before. And I can finally protect the phone better with a silicone case as it has only one piece.

Regards,

Radu
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
I agree. Better to wait a little bit. A year ago, around the end of July, I upgraded from my AT&T Fuze to the Tilt 2. If my Tilt 2 USB port hadn't broken, I would still be using it instead of the LG Quantum that insurance gave me. Great thing about insurance is that it does not extend your contract.

Tweaking things and the awesome Energy ROMs is what really kept me happy with the Tilt 2. With no new ROMs and no Microsoft or HTC development, there are no new things added.

I would not dismiss Windows phone 7 before trying it for at least a few weeks. I found that alot of the tweeking just isn't needed with it. It still has a few needed fixes, but they will come in time. Nothing severe though. The newer Windows Phone 7 devices do support tethering. (not the quantum yet though). I have never needed to reboot my phone except the reboot that occured when upgrading to Mango. It has shut off when the battery completely drained playing Angry Birds though. It does not get laggy and lockups just don't ever happen.

My plan now is to stick with this until July, so I can drop AT&T. I am tired of being bound by a contract. Especially when I see ads for $49 a month by T-Mobile. I know there are restrictions. Might not actually switch or might go back after, but really don't want to be required to stay with them. I may pickup a used Android Phone on ebay only to try it. I've been that happy with Windows Phone 7.

Once you use a faster phone with a 1 GHz processer, you will really notice how much lag the Tilt 2 has even with over clocking.

I would have loved to have been able to upgrade to something last June or July, but AT&T only discounts your purchase every 18 months. So buying an older phone really locks you out of the better discounts on the newer phones.

If I'm not mistaken, November is usually a good month for new phones. The Fuze came to AT&T on November 8th, 2008. Around that time I remember reading about November being when alot of phones are released. Good to get them in the stores by Black Friday and also available for Christmas shoppers.

Main point is that I really recommend waiting for new phones. Or at the very least, do not extend your contract if getting an older phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] curiousrom:
This Rhodium thread hijacking to phone upgrading and whatnot phone plans or providers is annoying.

For every TP2 sales on eBay, there is a buyer so a new Rhodium user.

Why not pm each other or post links to appropriate "What should I buy" threads?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] J-Hop2o6:
I don't see a problem with it.. The TP2 (and most of the WM phones) are not being supported anymore.. So might as well help the ones looking for a newer phone.. I can't wait to upgrade from my G2.. Just waiting for that [close to] perfect one.. The G-Nexus was really close, but a couple of things urked me like no micro sd slot, and a dated GPU =( .. Waiting for a phone that has Android 4.0 (ICS), S4 (Qualcomm) or 4212 (Samsung) processor, that has a micro SD, with a 720p SAMOLED screen thats between 4-4.5 inches.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rkub:
Because nothing is even happening anymore on this thread... No new roms coming out so why does it really matter since this thread would just drop off the page if no 1 posted... Plus is it really that hard to read the 1-2 new posts that are on the page?

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

Ya I really can't wait for a new phone... My Tilt2 seems to be on it's last legs...lol I really thought the Nexus Prime would be it but the specs on that really aren't that great and it doesn't look like it's comin to AT&T either... I really can't believe there aren't any new top of the line phones coming out with a physical kb, seems like everything is going all touchscreen...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] curiousrom:
OK, so let's revive all those old threads on XDA with off topic posts!

I subscribed to this thread to get notified of new posts about Energy's ROM for TP2 and since I have a Rhodium, i'm not interested by posts of people who want to change their toys. Even if the rom is not developed anymore, some people may bring optimization tips or pointers or problems they have about it.

On topic is THE basic etiquette in forums the last time I checked. :mad:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GT247:
Curiousrom, I agree with you on a basic level, your point would be dead-on if this rom were still in development, and a lot of us wish it were, among them are the same people you're accusing of hijacking the thread, people who have not only supported the thread and the roms development, but considerably helped those running the rom, and probably most chiefly, JVH3, who has helped more people on this thread using the rom than you or I could count to..as a matter of fact it was not so long ago NRGZ assigned him charge of the thread and the Q&A Dept as well..so perhaps consider the fact that it IS NRGZ's thread, and he DID assign it to JVH3, who DOES continue to assist users of this rom...he didn't assign you to it...so what if there's an occasional post or two or three regarding off-topic comments? The users posting them are users of this rom, and since I can remember, this threads users treat (practically) every other user of this rom as if they are family...that's the way it's always seemed to me, anyways. Personally, I could care less what another user of this rom posts in here, as long as it's respectful to the community as a whole, and as long as when someone is having an issue with the rom, the support they need appears for them, which it still does. I believe "where do we go from here?" is a pretty relative topic at this point, to this rom, and its users, who have all relied on one another (ok, noone relies on me here for anything) at some time or another, and when asking "where do we go from here?", who better to turn to other than people we have learned to like and trust?

On the topic of the off-topic posts regarding which device and/or OS to go to from here, my vote is WP7 at this point, and the HTC Titan is looking like a very strong contender. I have two Androids, the Evo 4G (which people have seen me state I don't like more than my Phodium) and a Dell Streak 5 (which is a helluva nice phone)..JVH3 is correct in stating that once one steps up to the faster processors, the Rhodium appears sluggish, but stock android phones are not for people who push their devices, we all like to install things our carriers don't want us to..the downside is that cooked android roms seem to most often lose stock features, a lot of apps force close, and there are sporadic reboots. As JVH3 stated, the WP7 system just works right out of the box. My advice to users of the Rhodium running this rom would be to wait for the upcoming WP7 devices to see if they tickle your fancies before upgrading (which I really mean downgrading) to whats out there now. If you want to try a different device, buy a used one.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I haven't been on contract with T-Mobile for seven-ish years or so. Recently, they started offering a $30 unlimited plan from Wal-Mart. You get unlimited data (throttled at 5GB), unlimited messaging, and 100 minutes a month.

It might not seem like many minutes, but pair that with an Android handset and Google Voice, and you've got yourself a completely unlimited plan for $30 per month. Seems worth it to me. I might splurge on a second plan. It's only available to newcomers and only from Wal-Mart stores.

Also, on the topic of 1GHz processors, I'm still using my Leo as my daily device. I finally found a local person to rewrite my WM apps to Android, so that's likely where I'm going. I've been running a NAND build of Android on my Leo for a couple of weeks now. Even with as much a difference as the faster processor makes, I still prefer the Rhodium over the Leo. Yes, it has a faster CPU and GPU, more RAM, and internal storage, but the Rhodium has a wonderful keyboard (best in the industry), better reception and sound quality. On the T-Mobile version that I have, it also has externally accessible reset and SD slot. It's a gigantic pain in the but to have to remove the back cover to pop out the SD card when I need to.

I've used WP7 several times on my Leo, and haven't liked anything other than the People Hub.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
In general I agree that the off topic posts can sometimes be annoying, since you see that a new post has occured in the thread and you think there might be something useful. But, in this thread, the answer to virtually every problem exists and can be found by searching the thread. It's an old thread and has a wealth of information in it.

There really aren't new issues. And it's kind of nice to see where everyone that's been on this ride with NRGZ28 is going.

Win Phone 7 plusses

Along with the people hub is the seemless transition of messaging with facebook to normal SMS. The integration with SkyDrive is excellent and Facebook too. Really love the fact that i can really use my phone all day and still have lots of juice left. It's not as tweakable, but people, namely Heathcliff, has published ways to actually create COM dlls to consume from Silverlight apps, so really, the sky is almost the limit with homebrew apps.

There are some pretty slick features built into Mango. Turn By Turn directions, audble texts that you can reply with speech, The eye search with Bing. Live agents. Pinable addresses. Addresses in emails automatically are links into maps. Location services are nearly instantaneous.

Android has some advantages. One big one is that NRGZ28 is cooking for it. Other advatages are the tweaking of it. But I don't think you will find an Android user that can say that they hadn't needed to restart their phone in 3 weeks or that it never had a performance hickup. I really enjoyed tweaking my Tilt 2, so I probably would enjoy tweaking Android too. But for now, I have an LG Quantum running Window Phone 7.5 Mango and am very happy.

Didn't realize that Walmart had gotten into the game of cell phone plans. I might need to check that out. Hopefuly this will help to keep prices down.

I probably will end up getting an Android phone (no contract) just to try it out. There isn't much reason for me to get another Windows Phone 7.5 until the next software update for comes. I have no complaints with the speed or quality of the Quantum, aside from no tethering. Any other Windows phone 7 will behave the same and have the same features.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] samsat:
OK so I will fuel the off topic discussion too!!

My TP2 is also on its last legs.

I am holding out for the HTC Vigor on AT&T which I can get as an upgrade.

Came close to getting the SGS2 but know I will miss the fact that there is no indicator LED for messages, battery charging etc.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nallyvaico:
Why offtop?

I TOTALLY disagree.

I am subscribed to this thread, too, and just swallow thoughts and ideas people speak on the subject that MUST interest most who still hang onto their TP2s - what next.

If you have something against it - why follow this thread in the first place?

Added later:

imho, this type of off-topping happens each and every time a popular device/platform are declining. Furthermore, we all - TP2 users - do have something in common: the way we choose the device and use it. No wonder most of us happen to be jumping on HTC Desire Z :D I have it, too ;)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Firstly, this is the GSM thread for this ROM. Secondly, this is a WM ROM, not an Android one. Thirdly, call your carrier and ask them. WM and Android data/MMS settings are usually a bit different.

battery consumption...

Hello I back.

I have a new battery and the problem of consumption continues, consumption was tested in three different roms.

:(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] JVH3:
Battery usage.

Some context would help.

I even searched back on all of your posts and read back to April. I didn't see any posts from you before about battery consumption.

Remember a couple things.

The battery meter does not fully calibrate until a few cycles of the battery after each ROM flash.

How you use your phone greatly influences battery life.

WiFi consumes power fast. Bluetooth consumes some. Switching back and forth between 3G and Edge consumes power. The display sucks a ton of juice.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnhale:
For me it ended up being the USB in the phone,check to see if its dirty or some of the wires are bent inside,try different cords and charging methods...wall,pc....try turning it off to charge and see if that helps.

johnhale
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DuChene:
maybe the problem is the instable edge/3G conection...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
That is highly likely. Switching between generation bands consumes a lot of power. Going from 2G (GPRS/EDGE) to 3G/HSPA consumes roughly the same amount of power as when you loose connection completely and reestablish it. If you are in an area where you do not have a strong or consistent 3G signal, turn off 3G until you need it. This will save you a good bit of battery during the day.
