Bug in Backlight Dimmer

Hi, I am new to this forum but I love this ROM. I only have one issue that is preventing me using it. In the "Backlight" settings there are 2 settings for "dimming" the screen, one for on battery, one for on external power. No matter what I set the On Battery dimmer for, as soon as the device is turned off or it is rebooted it defaults to 10 seconds. I have tried both the 24001 and the 23519 and get the same results. My puzzlement after reading through this forum is that no one else has reported this. Does anyone have any ideas on a fix?

i had this problem with the valkyrie 5.6 rom.

but only after i tried the android version that is posted here in the forum.

don't ask me, what caused this, it worked fine before i tried android and it works fine again now, after i flashed the latest rom.

a workaround: just disable the screen dimming on battery power and set the device only to power off after a specified time.

Where can I get a copy of the media player skin?

Awesome Rom, Where can I get a copy of the media player skin? I love the skin you are using.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
FWIW: I don't have this problem (on v5.7.24001).

I have seen such a problem posted before...somewhere on the Rhdium/TP2 forums (so maybe worth searching, e.g., "10 seconds backlight"). I think I had this problem myself, but it was several months -- and many rom-flashes -- ago. I don't remember if/how I resolved it. :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Excuse the double-post, but this is totally unrelated to the previous, so seems to warrant separateness.

Disappearing Top-Bar Bug? (5.7.24001)

I had something strange happen twice in the past couple of days: The top bar has disappeared -- just turned black/empty. I don't know what, if anything, I did that was in common in the two occurrences. I couldn't recover it -- tried stopping/starting Sense, etc. Had to soft-reset and now it's back and everything fine..for now.

I'm not running any custom themes or anything like that.

Anyone else experience a disappearing top-bar, on this or other rom?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] corzradio:
can you

post the black dialer cab please
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bacco:
Nothing of the sort MCbrian. Just plain boring bliss with this ROM :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Don't get me wrong -- I'm still totally blissed out.

jus sayin.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mahagon Coral:
same over here ^^ same error too, ...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
You mean you have had a disappearing top/taskbar, too?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
Just like I said, maybe 23519 is a little better... So far nothing bad to report, except I lost the ringer this afternoon. It seems to happen after taking the phone off vibrate or silent???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bacco:
Absolutely understood ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Seifer1975:
I just recently switched to this ROM from EnergyROM. Have also used quite a few other ROMs in the past. Must really say I am very very impressed with the memory usage. Dunno how agent_47 does it but the gwes process remains at less than 30mb memory after days of usage. Previously on other ROMs, that process easily shoots up to 40mb after 1 day or less.

If only videocall is working, that would be sweeet!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MKK:
I too am having this ringer problem. After switching the ringer to vibrate during a meeting and then back to volume up, the ringer remains silent.

Could someone explain to me how to use this .reg file? I have downloaded it to my computer, unzipped it, and I assume that I should move it over to somewhere on my Touch Pro2. But not sure where and what else I'm supposed to do.

Thanks!

Edit: Just found these instructions on XDA explaining how to load this .reg file:

1) Download "Ringer fix.zip"

2) Extract "Ringer fix.reg" & copy it to your Storage Card

3) Run Registry Editor

4) Select left most button (single folder w/ lightning bolt), then choose "Import..."

5) Find the "Ringer fix.reg" file that you stored and select "Done".

6) When it asks you if you want to import, say "yes/OK."

7) Soft reset and you're good to go!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
If you have Total Commander you can also just navigate to the registry and copy that .reg file there -- it'll put the reg-entry tweaks where they're supposed to go. (and then soft-reset).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MKK:
Thanks for the quick reply. Hoping you can help me a little more. I'm a nooby.

I've copied the .reg file to my storage card. And I have opened Total Commander (for the first time). How do I now make Total Commander, as you instruct, "navigate to the registry and copy that .reg file there"?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I'll send you a Private Message to answer since this is kinda off-topic. Check your PMs in a minute.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stormrain:
I flashed this rom yesterday and i must say I am impressed with that ROM, really nice and fully functional for me!

I noticed that sometimes the weather animation (clouds mostly) get stuck a bit but its easily corrected after hiting the taskbar and the Home button.. Not much of a problem for me, just saying.

Now a couple of questions to you veterans.

1. How can I remove the time from the taskbar? I'm pretty sure there is an option somewhere but I can't seem find it out lol. I need to install the showcase task manager and the icon will be right on top of it i guess...

2. Can I change the functions of the softbuttons or will that mess things up?

3. And a really n00b one. I noticed that in the wm menu there are folders (like gps, games, applications etc.). How can I move programmes into these folders?

Thanks in advance, and Agent_47, really, great job!!

24001 ROM is awesome.

24001 ROM is awesome. To me it would be 110% ROM if you could add to Manila homescreen that you could see 2 next appoitments. I think there would be just enough room at homescreen for that, when using 4 row program icons.

Some plans for 23529 ? :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mahagon Coral:
quite a bit of truth there I believe ^^

happened to me at least 3 times ... in 2 days...

another issue: max manila 2.5 3 beta does not work, all text and all small icons on the homescreen are just plain white, but nobody in that thread seems to have a solution for this problem either ... although it's most likely a max manila error
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jeroenpico:
I'm using the 24001 build on a unbranded TP2, when I get an incoming call when the device is locked i can't see who it is or answer the call.

Anybody who knows how to fix this?

I installed resco explorer and resco reg add in, and just clicked on the registry file.

uploading now....speed is ok i gues :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
@agent_47:

I haven't read anything about this WM release...so I guess the obvious question:

Is there anything better about 23529 over 24001 -- other than "it's the latest thing"? "It's the latest thing" is a perfectly good reason to try it, of course, just wondering if there are known advantages...?

And does this one also use manila 2.5.2011?

Thanks. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
The new file is way too small. Only 43mb's for a rom??? (23529)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Not done uploading yet. Check it again and you'll see it's growing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
I figured, i'll check in a half hr or so.

I hope us trying to download while it is uploading will not corrupt the file...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
So, clauswl, are you going to flash 23529 as soon as it's uploaded?

I'll download it, but I'm going to stick with 24001 for a while. I'm trying to leave on a road-trip-vacation today...and don't need playing with a new rom to distract me! (so, what am I even doing on this board???) :p

Good luck and report back. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
Yes, I am. I have another tp2 for my son, so his phone will be the ginny pig for right now.

As soon as it's done downloading and flashed on to the tp2 i'll let you know.

ya...was there a newer leak?

i din check
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
Off the subject agent_47. Did you get your HD2 yet?

If so, how do you like it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
Hmm agent_47, I flashed 23529 onto my tp2 twice, reset it several times, but it won't boot up completely, not even into titanium.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
23529 isn't booting. Must be a bad build.

Flashed 24001 back on, see how it is. Btw, 23519 works very well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dexter_Morgan:
Go into settings/home and select HTC sense.

Works ok then.

Has titanium been taken out to save ram?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
Oh, have not tried that. How does this rom perform?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dexter_Morgan:
I have just finished configuring it and it seems speedy as hell compared to the tp2_firestorm_v5.6.25318LEO-qulinBETA I was on before.

Clouds nice and smooth on main screen also when scrolling the program icons up and down. Will play more tomorrow and see how it runs.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
K, cool. Will flash it now. 23519 was pretty good, 24001 gives me no ring tone error.

- When I start MSN/Messenger and close the window it won't close.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
I think there are too many bugs in 23529. I'll go back to 23519.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nuron:
23529 is buggy with messaging and overlapping soft key menus. 24001 was solid though, I used that with no soft resets required. I will try 23519 for fun.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mbeardyc:
Copy the file where?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Under Registry, on the screen where you see the folders HKCU and HKLM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mbeardyc:
I'm in PHM Registry Editor and I copied Ringer Fix to my storage card. I'm not sure how I add the file.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Did you extract the .reg file from the .zip file?

I'm not familiar with PHM...so I don't know how it works.

If it's a dedicated registry editor then it probably has an "import" function...again, just guessing. If so, then you want to "import" the .reg file that you copied to your storage card.

Sorry, probably can't help beyond that with PHM registry editor.

If you were using Total Commander I'd say go to \\Plugins\registry, where you'll see 3 folders: HKCR, HKCU and HKLM...and blank space. OK, before that, go to your storage card and copy the .reg file to the clipboard. Then go to the registry screen where you see the 3 HK__ folders I mentioned. Copy the reg file from the clipboard to that folder...anywhere under Registry, and it will go to the correct spot...something like that. Soft reset.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
Just install Resco explorer and registry add in and click on the file using resco explorer.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Seifer1975:
agent_47, a question. Was it on purpose that you set the volume of your ROMs to such loud levels? First time I used your ROM I got a shock. For other ROMs, I always set to Phone vol=80%, sys vol=66%. For your ROMs, I have to set to phone vol=40%, sys vol=26%. And even then I find it loud...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
You are supposed to customize the roms to your liking after they finished installing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] agent_47:
sorry for my ignorance but might i ask what we are fixing with this cab....cant remember :(

Agent,

Max 3.0 Manila is ready. U might wanna cook it into your NEW ROM. :D

Should be stable by now since a couple of chef already have their version with MAX. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Die Bruine:
Tried to change GSM mode through settings, it worked. So its only a comms manager bug.

Also I tought new style lock meant "the slide". If so it isn't working.

Could you also post a previous version of Messenger? I have tried all, and I do mean ALL, of the top 10 topics and their ROM's. All the ROMS with the newer Messenger stop working after a couple of hours idle time. I get the message you have been... disconnected. When I reconnect it won't work. I have to soft-reset the phone. I tried WiFi, GSM and 3G. Whatever the connection, it will get disconncted and will refuse to reconnect stating there is a connection problem.

I'm also curious why you leave A-GPS out of your ROM?

Is there already a fix for the Manila /Sense font-size?

Thanks much!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stormrain:
I keep liking this Rom more and more. Still, i have one question. When someone is calling, I cannot silence the ringtone. I think in manila 2.1 that feature was available just underneath the Answer/Dismiss slider in the call screen. Plus it was available by pressing the volume down hard key once, and the ringing got silenced. Is there a fix for that? And basically, has anyone else noticed?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
Which rom? 23529,2401,or 21889?

Can anybody do a quick comparison for me?

I wanted to give this rom a try and see how i like it.

This ROM looks great and fast> However, forgive my ignorance, why do I only see .nbh file in the folder(tp2_firestorm_v5.7.24001LEO.7z)? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bacco:
Many people flash via their SD card. As such, all you would need to do is copy the nbh file onto the root folder of your SD card and put the phone in bootloader and let it do the rest.

There's a thread here that describes the process.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] daleandla:
I freakin love it! If there is one thing I was let down on this Touch Pro 2, it was the pathetic volume level on Tmo"s version. Agents has the best volume level of any rom I"ve tried. Its easier to turn it down, than have it at 100% and still weak isn"t it? Rock on. :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eugenile:
yea do not change anything on the volume, the TP2s default volume is way too low. keep it nice and loud as is.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
If you want to use the usb-to-PC flashing method (as I do -- call me old school ;) ) you can use the customRUU.exe included with any other TP2 rom, or download the "Flashing Tools..." file from Post #2 of this thread; it contains the customRUU.exe and other handy stuff.

Hi, I'm new to Valkyrie's ROM. This ROM is great and stable. Thanks to chef's great work. One question: are all the HTC TP2 updates/ hotfixes included in the ROM? I'm currently on 24001 build. Thanks.

I've only tried v24001...but based on reports they're all similar.

24001 is WM6.5.5, and the other two are 6.5.3...but so what :p

Nobody has reported significant differences (some talk of dialer/ringer issues, but I haven't had any problems), other than what agent_47 listed on Post #2:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
I am back to 23519. Most stable for me nd no ringer issue. Oh and sprite backup is great!!!! Why did I not use that before. I set up a valkyrie rom (23519) with all the cabs and so fort, but without the personal stuff, the I can just simply restore any version valkyrie rom with a level one restore. Voila, all the cabs are re-setup again!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Okay...almost everybody loves it. :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] clauswl:
24001 is nice and fast, a few quirks, like office and the ringer issue.

I think 23519 might be just as fast, starcraft sure boots fast.

I went back and forth between 24001 and 24001 using sprite to restore all my stuff. Used the roms for a day, but still think 23519 has less faults.

Waiting for the next good rom, maybe a good working 23529, or how about WM 7.0?? :D

How about if you try it, McBrian, and let me know what you think.:rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I'll try 23519 tomorrow or next if nothing new/better comes out. I'm going to be on vacation in a (probably) damp coastal spot for a few days, so I may have plenty of indoor time to fiddle with new rom(s) ;) .

But I don't want to mess with a new ROM before then. :)

but never the less .. awesome rom as always agent :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stormrain:
Um guys sorry to be a pain, but bumping again the question.

How about a fix to silence the ringer while ringing? Has anyone else noticed that there is no such option to do so? Usually it was done by pressing the volume button once while ringing, or by the option underneath the slider... Or by flipping the phone, screen facing down (this one actually works, but not very handy when standing and the phone is in my pocket)... Using 24001.

thanks in advance.

Hi McBrian you seem to be pretty senior here, i have a question, after flashing the new software where can i check if the new one has been flashed successfully?

If it says 23519 in software identity then can i confirm that i have flashed the correct rom? Right now its says : 5.2 23529 <-- is this correct? is it the latest 5.7?

Sorry for these noobish questions. But am not so good this yet.

I switched to 23519 because this happened too often to 24001 after a while.
