[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] TMReuffurth:
There is a Thread for listing all roms available. But i think they are still construction this one. A higher build number doesn´t mean a better rom! These roms normally come with the most bugs, because they are most recent, so they are needed for testing. If you want a rom just to see the newest features, how it looks, and to test a little bit, then go for the higher build numbers. But if you want a rom that you can use every day, then try one of the older rom, like 23016.Take a look for Miri´s, EnergyRom, Xanny, Dutty, Laurentius, Topix, etc. There are so many great roms around!

Best you can do is trying and posting you experience in the respective rom thread.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] UKTrainSim:
Aha, found this on a search - apologies to the original author of it as it was I think pasted a number of times but I do stress I am *not* the original author of it :)

So it looks to me like for those looking for a more stable build and not bleeding edge, 230xx is the way to go, these look to be fixes, improvements and enhancements to the release version of WM6.5, as opposed to 234xx which is the forward looking bleeding edge.

I've got PDAVIET's V67 on at the moment (which is COM4) so I might just give V68 a shot and see how COM3 looks in comparison, given it's got the newer Manilla.

Posting this info in the hope other newbs can learn from it too :)

Cheers

Hello all

Right im a bit confused. Went to bed phone was fine, woke up this morning and it keeps saying no network coverage then finds it works for 5 mins then says no network coverage again and thats it, never finds a network again.

using modaco 2.2 and have been since it was released with no problems up till now. on orange as well

any ideas will be welcome
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkimatt:
Sounds daft this, but have you checked the sim is still fully 'clicked in'? My sim card holder seems a little weak, occasionally it slips free and presents exactly the same problems you're having.

yes first thing i tried

have also tried swearing at it and treating it with care and love

[Shift Development] PlayStation:
Hi guys. I have seen very positive reviews for the new HTC Sense that is all the talk of the upcoming HTC Leo. Is there any hope that the developers here will be able to make it available for the Shift. I know Shift winmo side is grossly underpowered but a boy can dream, can't he...... :p
[Shift Development] vinokirk:
I doubt it very much due to the RAM/ROM constraints on the Shift :(
[Shift Development] Pantaloonie:
Just ordered my Leo, due for despatch on 11th Nov.

I think that's the only way I'll be seeing the new HTC Sense, the Shift won't have a hope of running it.
[Shift Development] vinokirk:
Yeah i saw on the Leo thread you ordered yours. Ill be getting mine in Janurary hopefuly, I'd like to get a sim free one but I dont know yet. I'm definately not getting a 24 month tarrif, nooooooo-way jose. The telcos can stick them where the sun dont shine!
[Shift Development] Pantaloonie:
I bought it from mobile phones direct, free with a new £35 18 month t-mo contract, and they always supply unlocked and unbranded units.
[Shift Development] vinokirk:
unlocked+unbranded?! cooool! Yeah ive seen these guys before. I would get their tmobile combi 30 deal, the phone would work out at £504.31 in total

I want to use the most efficient ROM when it comes to power consumption. i am not sure if the newer kernel is more efficient or if the extra things added to the OS decrease the lifespan? can people tell me of their experiences here?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] tufei8888:
I used use wm6.1 and wm6.5, but now i change back to 6.5 coz its power consuption. Everytime i full of the power it can only continue lest then one day, almost 14 hours. Maybe i choose a bad rom version.

But just for you reference. At least u can know that 6.5 need much more power coz it is not design for herme.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wrsg:
i think you mean you have changed back to 6.1?

i have had similar results with power usage, i find 6.1 is much better, and lasts a lot longer.
[P3600 General] arpcpro:
I know trinity supports HSDPA. But I have an option on WM6.5 to enable also HSUPA.

Will it make the uploads faster if my network supports HSUPA, or this won't make any difference on P3600 since HSUPA has to be hardware enabled?
[P3600 General] Holzbrett:
Well, I can't give you an answer to your question, but why don't you visit some of those "dsl speed test" websites and check the differences this option will cause?
[P3600 General] arpcpro:
Yes, that's an ideia. But I doubt that I can get the ideal conditions for that from my network provider. That is if my cell provider supports it.

But from some reviews I understood that this is something hardware embeded. At least there was a great fuss about Tytn II bringing HSUPA. So it is probably necessary to have different hardware for HSUPA to work and not something that can be firmware or software enabled.

Hello everyone,

i have noticed that my TP2 has very poor WiFi signal comparing with my Nokia E51 which every time detect so many wifi networks and show good signals

but when I tun the Wifi on TP2, its difficult to detect the same networks

for example, in my work place there are 6 Wifi networks on each floor, and

and for laptops, and Nokia phone it's not a problem to connect on everyone

BUT my TP2 only shows me the closest to me, with very poor signal and its very hard to connect it.. the same situation is when Im outside.

Is the same situation with yours TP2 ? and is there any solution?

P.s. in WiFi advanced set. I have choose Best performance..but no difference!

the rom is orig HTC 1.19.401.1 (51489) WWE - 06/22/09,

and the radio is 3.46.25.30

if u have any ideas please, share it with me..

With best regards,

patzkata
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nradu:
Same here

I have exactly the same problem. I contacted HTC support but they gave me useless advices (like set best performance not best battery, replace the AP, etc). Their final conclusion was to go to warranty with the device - but looking at this forum and finding so many complaints about WiFi I doubt they can replace my phone with a better one ...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] energello:
I noticed the same think on my one..

g connection with wpa-psk enabled only two bars on the meter connection... and i'm 3mt far from access-point

my rom is 1.19..

and radio is the latest avaible 4.49.25.17

:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RacerX10:
My Kaiser (Tilt 1) has pretty poor WiFi performance too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lombardo8:
Same problem here. Wifi connection is very poor on my TP2. It was much better on my Kaiser. With my TP2 you need to be standing next to the AP to get a connection.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] patzkata:
.. So there isnt a solution, right ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] uiqjirka:
Wifi connection is very good on my TP2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hopper13:
Have they fixed the 1mbs download (receive) limit that we had on the Touch Pro?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] patzkata:
I dont' know, but I don't think that this will help to the Wifi :P

Somebody told me that Rodium with the metal cover (which is mine) has poor signal because of the metal!

that is the reason for some other phones with metal cover.. but I don't know

anyway .. I reflashed my TP2 with the original from the HTC support page

byt everithing is the same :(

any body have an Idea ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] crazythunder:
mine works great, even with static routing setup. linksys is my main wired router with an smc wireless router connected to it. no problems whatsoever. could be something in the router setups.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] iboj007:
Even with the strong signal, notice how your Rx rate is only 1 Mbps....

I think this is what everyone is complaining about
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] patzkata:
I i noticed, that when I open the hardware keyboard, the signal become a little bit better, but my Rx rate is also 1 Mbps, and this is at home, where I'm 5m from the WiFi router ..

I noticed and that the Wifi anten is closer to the power buton from the top of the TP2, becase when my hand is over the Power button side the signal reduced :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hopper13:
Bummer. I see from the screen shot that it has the same hobbled 1mbps receive rate. I was hoping HTC would fix that. It makes wifi practically worthless. :-(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ranwej:
Signal on my Touch Pro2 is weak too.. it's full only 1-2 meters from router. But RX rate working fine. With full signal i have RX at 54Mbps. With weak signal is lower. And what is TX rate? RX rate is only 1Mbit when i set power mode to best battery. With normal or best performance settings it depends on signal power.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Touch_Pete:
I connected my daughters iPhone to my wifi networkand noticed that she has 3 times the signal strength that I get on my TP2. HTC needs to fix this it is NOT acceptable
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Visionikz03:
Mine works great. Getting 54 Mbps Tx and Rx. I'm using a NetGear router with RangeMax don't know if that makes a difference or not. It shouldn't.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] iboj007:
Something tells me that there's an ideal channel which the device will work on
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nradu:
Channel 5

I have channel 5 set on my Linksys AP, never had full signal, but from time to time I have both RX and TX on 54Mbps. In the past I had an hp ipaq 6915 with 802.11b (11Mbps max) with great signal, but still the real transfer rate (i.e. loading web pages, FTP etc) was lower that TP2's.

I'll try to make a poll to see on which European channel people have their APs and get the best out of TP2.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RacerX10:
Got my Tilt 2 yesterday and I can confirm that it's got crappy wifi sensitivity. I hope a firmware / radio update can improve it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] TyTanIc:
Wifi problem in router, not TP2

Whilst the signal radio reception strength may differ, this doesn't affect the actual receive rates that the unit defaults to.

It has nothing to do with the TP2 as to whether the rate is 1Mbps or 54... it is a setting in the router that alters this. I spent all yesterday looking at all the options on both units... what can be changed in the TP2 settings compared to then changing the router settings.

I found that by forcing the router to broadcast on g or n, and defaulting to channel 3, it forces the TP2 to accept 54 & 54 whereas it was showing 54 & 1 beforehand.

Most routers are default set to 'All' range types, so includes b, g and n (if included) and then most users leave the router to default the rest of the settings.

I have now set my router to force g and n only and forced 20MHz radio rate... although some might not have this setting.

Overall performance is nor much better, and has also improved the wireless rates for all the other wifi units around the house.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] patzkata:
Wow.. I tried this, and you are SO RIGHT!

a least an home the WiFi wil be Strong!

Thanks again :)

patzkata
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hellbondz:
Hm. I've seen somewhere reg mod for HTC devices. It forces (probably) g type wifi on Tp2.

[Palm Treo 750] dumuuc:
Hi everyone,

I have a big problem and I need urgent help please. I have ATT 750 unlocked and I'm outside the States now. My Treo was 6.0 then I upgrade it to 6.1 so far so good.

Then I saw a custom rom that I thought it was interesting. the custom rom was for HTC Dimond I think. without paying too much attention. I started the upgrade. It went 70% before the upgrade crashed.

Now my Treo is not responding to anything. I have the original ATT 6.0 SD upgrade and I have the 6.1 lite upgrade. I'm using CheetahUnlocker to flash the SPL (that is working) but when I try to install the 6.0 or 6.1 using Kaiser Custom RUU v1 it crash.

I saw the post above that suggest to place the original 6.0 on a freshly formated SD and install from there. that is not working either. when I try to install the software it goes into these steps before it crashes: btw, I have the tri-color bar and it has the following info:

CHEE100

IPL-0.20

SPL-1.40.01iNex

while update in progress i see the following:

CHEEIMG.nbh

SPLASH1 - OK

BOOTLOADER - OK

GSM - OK

MicroP - OK

EXTROM - Fail

OS -

After the crash I get this msg: "Update Terminate Update Failed"

Any suggestion please? need more info? then let me know

You may have corrupted your DOC, you may need to use mtty to reformat it. Do some searching on how to do it.

Or try to use T750URT.exe to restore it, it comes with the Treo desktop updater.

What can I do ?

Best regards

Ps Sorry for my english
[Touch GSM General] tito12:
Hi

I think your HTC_Touch_FRA_2.20.406.1B is an official rom, and they come with Cid, that means you are Cid locked again :) You'll have to go all over the cid unlock procedure and then flash a cooked rom

Good luck

Make sure u have fullcharged battery or connect PPC to charger.

Also re-format SD card and reload OS image.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Zilch:
Urg...this is harder than it should be. Can anyone in the same situation offer any advice?

Situation is this...

* HTC Touch Pro

* Google Apps Mail/Calendar/Tasks

* Lotus Notes w/Notes Traveler

* Other sync apps like Spb Wallet

* Windows XP

I initially had my phone syncing with ActiveSync to my laptop as a backup (contacts etc going to Outlook) and so I could sync things like my password data using Spb Wallet

Coming from Palm devices, I wasn't quite prepared for how crap ActiveSync (or Outlook) actually was. I then changed my mail to sync with Google (using IMAP) and then Contacts and Calendar syncing with Google via their fake Outlook sync setup, and that works pretty well.

Note: Now Google have push email, but I haven't tried it, and my Spb Wallet on my phone and PC are now out of sync :(

Today I tried Notes Traveler, which syncs my work info over-the-air, kind of like a Blackberry.

This works (I guess) but Lotus' idea of "Sync" seems to be "Nuke everything on your device and overwrite it with your Notes data"

...yep, I did back everything up...

Issues/Questions:

1) Is there any way to get rid of the default "Outlook" mail account in TouchPro 3d? Strangely I did a backup and restore when my phone went in for repair, and now it is called my domain name and has some old mail in it, but it's still not deletable

2) Notes Traveler creates a second (third!) mail account, so my work email is separate (which is great) but it nuked my calendar. Then it nuked my Google calendar, and uploaded all my work appointments to it! To make matters worse, even though mail is separate, meeting invites and responses now get sent back to my personal Google mailbox (since there is only one calendar I guess)

3) Since I'm busy/lazy at work, my work email has 554 unread messages (from the last 30 days), and it fills up at a rate of a couple of hundred a day. This means that the notification circle thingo on the front of the phone is in a permanent state of flashyness. Is there any way I can disable that for mail, and just have it alert me for SMSs etc?

4) Has anyone come up with a good solution for two different types of mail? The only option I can really think of is turning off the Google sync (maybe except for Contacts) and using the web apps...but that seems clunky and no TouchFlow 3D integration. There isn't a native WM6 app for the Google suite is there? Or for Notes? Also the screenshots on the Google help web pages seem much more usable than the screens I actually get (there are tabs across the top to switch between mail, cal etc.)

5) I really use the multi calendar feature of Google a lot, is there any way you can sync more than one calendar to the device?

6) Does anyone know if Android manages this scenario better? I'm almost ready to switch (except that no Notes Traveler for Android)

Thanks in advance for any pointers on any of the items above.

Zilch.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Thresher:
To delete the account you go into Activesync on the phone, then go to Menu...Options...now click and hold on the exchange server to delete it.

You can go to Settings, sounds Notifications to turn off the flashing notification. Otherwise you may need fuze tweak or advanced config.

HI,

I have Vodafone v1620 (model ID PH20B2) with german language pack.The device is working fine with windows mobile 2003SE. I want upgreat to windows mobile 6. Please can you tell me, if all componets (WI-FI,GSM,Bluetooth,IR) will work normal on win mobile 6. If yes,can you recommend me appropriate ROM.I found to many and I can't choose the best one.

Thank you in advance.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] Chef_Tony:
welcome to the forum!

in general, the rom itself does not necessarily influene the wireless communications, like you asked for, which is why, for instance, in Irda, gprs and gsm there are absolutely no differences.

bluetooth is slightly different as most blueangels with wm2003 have the broadcom bluetooth stack, which is not included in the roms, so setting up your device works differently, but on another os, everything is different, so that's no point.

there is a slight wi-fi bug, that sometimes, when you try and switch it on, it will turn off again, but there is a known workaround (to not activate it in comm manager but in wi-fi manager the first time after a soft reset).

all those points concern all the roms beginning with wm5.

so in conclusion: all communications will work (with minor adjustments), you can pick any rom you like.

next thing is, picking a rom. really nobody can help you there, look at the threads of the roms, read the posts, decide for yourself.

and in the future, please refrain from opening new threads for topics, discussed dozens of times before. use the search feature, read the wiki, read random posts, whatever. the forum is to be kept as clean and slim as possible, which means, you can bump old threads by asking new questions, or simply use the Q&A thread, to be found -=here=-.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Hi Adi,

I used to do use Sky by Mobile for Remote Record on my Kaiser but have never succeeded in getting it to work properly on the TD2.

The issue is that the Java applet requires you to use hardware keys to press the Login and OK softkeys that appear on screen. I've never found a way to do it properly as screen taps are never registered.

That said, if you manage to achieve it then I'd be a very happy man as I am away a lot and often want to do Remote Record easily.

I guess I have a issue on my phone regarding my battery or the phone itself...

A few weeks I bought a used Vodafone Spain HTC Magic 32B and the battery never lasted too long, with almost no use It would get about 12/14 hours with everything turned off. Overnight, with everything turned off, it discharges about 60%...

I bought a new cheap battery from the ebay and the problem persists, but evan worst.

I friend of mine has a HTC Magic 32A with a Hero rom, so I asked him to use my battery and see how long will it last, yesterday afternoon it was about 46% and already had passed about 24 hours.

I am using this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532902 with almost no widgests. I did not stick with the original rom for a long time, but I guess that I already had this battery issue...

If the battery lasts that long on my friend's Magic 32A, obviously its not a problem with the battery.

What can be the problem?

Can I have something running on background thats draining my battery, evan when its with the screen off and no applications show up in the several task managers that I have installed?

Here are some details of the phone:

SAPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT-1.33.0007 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-10

RADIO-2.22.19.26I

I also noticed the radio version of my friend's Magic is different from mine. Would that influence the battery duration?

A problem the Hero roms is that the clock frequence is set to run 528000 all the time.
