[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gw4k:
Hello there all you experts at the XDA forums.

I am a first time poster to this site and a first time user of a Windows Mobile device.

I recently purchase the Touch Pro 2 and have been patiently...or impatiently if you want to be honest...waiting for the 6.5 Window Mobile Update.

Since the odds of receiving the upgrade (sooner than later) are getting slimmer and slimmer each day, I have come to you fine folks for help.

Are there any 6.5 roms for the Verizon Touch Pro 2?

I have used 6.5 on some other devices and I like the new GUI.

Thank you for any help you can provide. Also, if there are some rom available I will definitely need some help flashing my device.

Step by step directions for the beginner will be needed.

Thanks everyone!

At this time we are waiting for the device to be unlocked. I have a very good feeling that this will happen before verizon releases their version. I stopped at my companies verizon store today and they had nothing as far as info goes.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ckeegan:
The Verizon store will never have any info about the 6.5 update, just as they had no idea the Touch Pro2 had been released three days earlier when I went in to find a case. There's almost no need for them to know about a software update.

Hey Guys,

Just got my htc tilt 2 and im in love with it. I just wanted to know if there was anyway I can set it to lock my phone when I hit the standby/power button. Thanks for the help
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jamespaulritter:
There use to be a setting in the advanced configuration tool that allowed this,,,,,,,,,, or was it in diamondtweak. If it isnt in one of those you could use s2u2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
S2U2 will do what you want. But it's a resource hog.

I suggest LockDevice found at the below link. It uses zero resources if you set it to lock on wake. (It uses a just a couple kb if you set it to lock on screen off).

I have seen apps that you can set the brightness of the screen for different apps, but I cannot find an app that will disable the backlight timeout in a certain program. I want to be set list of programs (like youtube) that the backligh and the device will not lock after 30 secs or whatever the default is when I use that program. Any ideas? Possible? Not possible?

Thanks in adanvced
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] juliend:
Would be handy, indeed. I use some GPS apps that the GPS stops working on when the phone locks or screen goes off. Irritating.....
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] supermiah:
No answers? Is there no hope?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Myrddin Wyllt:
You could try asking the program's developers. I know the feature is possible, because programs like TCPMP are capable of overriding the timeout while playback mode is engaged.

FWIW, my version of YouTube stays lit while a video is playing, regardless of length. Maybe you just need to upgrade? I just started using this ROM, but it was built-in, so I haven't a clue what version number it's using.

Based on my experience, if there's still ATHE100 on the bootloader screen, there's no need to use the model id/wifi fix.

You just need to find the right official ROM for your device first (if not HardSPL)... if I'm not mistaken, X7501 CID is HTC_001 and not DOPOD01. Please try flash the device again with US official WM6 ROM version first as located here for X7501 : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Athena_Upgrades

After your device is recovered, please make sure you HardSPL it first BEFORE flashing other ROMs.

Wish you all the best.
[Wing, P4350 General] zee3b:
hey I was trying to HARDspl my phone I tried the three cab files and got this error while trying to run the romupdate utility. I tried looking every where couldn't find the cause. Any help would be appreciated.
[Wing, P4350 General] ashasaur:
You don't run the RUU from your phone, you run it on your computer with your phone connected after you install those three .cab files.
[Wing, P4350 General] zee3b:
Thanks, I'll try that.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] zeraldo:
is there any way to edit the available options in Phone:Band stack?

my weird operator in Brazil (called Claro) uses 1800MHz for GSM and 850MHz for 3G and there is no way to select both of them in any ROM I have ever flashed in my Polaris. then, I am stuck in the old slow EDGE network, because I can't select the right frequencies.

please do not suggest me to select the "Auto" option, for it was obviously selected and it didn't work at all.

I have another phone, a Samsung Jet, which I bought with a rom from my weird operator, and it gives the option to select gsm and 3g bands separately, not in combos as the polaris does. I flashed it with some european rom and the options available were only those combos which my polaris also offers. so, I wonder if it would be possible to change those options while cooking a windows mobile rom to the polaris, just the way my weird operator's crew did with that freaking samsung proprietary OS.

hope you give me some positive feedback.

thank you, guys!

Does anyone know if there is a WVGA internet sharing pop-up available? I installed the old one but it is only vga and doesn't fit.
[Imagio General] Richard713:
i use the one in the attachment works fine for me...
[Imagio General] RKnight1983:
I have a question that I hope someone has the answer for. I have been using this app ever since it was leaked months ago with my Touch Pro on allel, I ordered my Imagio this morning and they told me that I would not be able to keep my $10 per month tethering plan because it would not work on a Verizon plan. The question I have is that if I use this App, will they be able to tell that I even tether, because I do not have tethering on my wifes Treo Pro and she will use her phone through the internet sharing app that is installed by default and Alltel was never able to tell. If anyone has any ideas that will be great because I do not use the tethering enough to justify paying $30 per month.
[Imagio General] Boss428man:
I was looking for the USB to PC pop up with internet sharing on the list. However the wifi sharing works great on my phone as well.

Ohh I have that cab on my pc somewhere I downloaded it with a pack for the JD's Clean ROMS for my Touch Pro. you should be able to download it from the thread. It was called "Touchpro extensions for JD's Clean ROM"

I am not positive if it is VGA specific or if it will work on any Resolution.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Limlin:
HTC has released their first official Windows Mobile 6.5 Upgrade, which targets the Touch Pro2, initially a Windows Mobile 6.1 device.

The update is a Windows 'RUU' exe that will clear all data on your device and replace the current Operating System with the new one. Not much info on that, except for the fact that is is ROM version 1.86.401.0.

Download from the official HTC website, run the application and follow the instructions carefully! Make sure to backup contacts, emails, messages, call history.

I'm wondering if there is any benefit to leave the phone on 3g instead of GSM if we don't have a data plan. Does it serve any benefit like improve call quality even if we don't have the data plan from T-Mobile? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] enisoc:
As far as I know, voice is completely separate from data. Whether 3G is on or not should not have any effect on voice signals.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lancelot54:
you'll save your battery if you do so.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cproaudio:
3g does not have speaker feed back. 2g does have speaker feed back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gunggu:
CMIIW, using 3G you can simultaniously using both data and voice, but under 2G (EDGE) your data connection will be suspended temporary if you make a voice call

oh off course, the signal will likely be better for 2G compared to 3G (higher frequency)

So I have my new TP2 from TMobile and I'm looking for some good links.

First, I checked the Wiki but I couldn't find a reference to the original TMobile rom. I don't want to flash unless I know the original ROM is available to restore if I need to.

Second, I don't see a lot of ROM's running the 230xx branch. I really miss my nice finger friendly buttons from my Fuze. Can someone layout what's the current state and any big known issues. I read through 3 of the postings (Shadowline's, ROMeOS³, another) and didn't see many horror stories.

Third, are the TMobile specific apps available to install in to a custom rom. I really like the custom service app to check minutes used/etc.

Any other tips for TMobile you might want to share?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gashin:
yeah - you can get unlimited text/internet for $20 instead of the $35 plan :).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] JoeWilcox:
How, I'm on the $30 plan.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gashin:
swap ur sim into a ghetto phone then go in their chat support and tell them that you don't like the smartphone and that u want a plan for regular phones. They will check your phone ID when you do this so keep yout sim in thr ghetto phone until after they remove the old plan and add the 19.99 plan. When you do it

make sure that you dont sound anxious to get the plan - just mention the 6 dollar tzones but they wont give it to you then ask for a internet/nessaging combo and they should offer you the 19.99 plan. Make sure they remove your old plan before swapping your sim back into the tp2. the internet works great in socal but the stock aim client is not working all the time so you might need to get IM+ which is known to work when you set the port to 110 but it is a proprietary program and u need to pay but there are many others that may work that are free. Everything other than Aim works fine though including skyfire pandora youtube and google maps and the weather etc. The internet is exactly the same as when I had the $35 plan and streaming google vids on skyfire is smooth as hell

I know before there was a manilla.exe file I had to copy to the windows directory, I can do that, but it wipes out the manilla weather on the home screen.

Besides these two issues and the one I mentions on ppc about the task manager this ROM is very very good. I dont plan on changing from your ROMs anytime soon, I see them only getting better(not there is much room to get better) :P

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] vin255764:
Its very simple,but better not to use it because they will be deleted from your SD after installation.

If you still want to do this,just make sure you have a copyes of your cabs.

and keep adding the cab names to mycabs.txt.

In my opinion its better to keep it within 2-3 cabs (mostlikely for carriers stuff)

CAB: \Storage card\cabname.cab

CAB: \Storage card\cabname.cab
