reason being CHT1.8!!

i kept telling u guyz.....even i used CAPSLOCK. :cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bones221:
This happened to me the very first time I tried to flash. It resolved itself, seemingly. In my case, I speculate that I tried to flash with too little battery power, because I just left it on the AC charger for a while and finally the "automatic reboot cycle" was broken and the boot screen finally came on and stayed on.

If you haven't been able to find the fix yet, it might be worth a try to just leave it on the charger for a while. *shrug*

good luck.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Jersey_Sean:
Thanks for your input but the batery is currently 72% which I think is adeqaute.

Still experiencing problems.

Finally got phone to load stock rom: -

Rom 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE

Radio 2.05.51.05_2

But when powing up after soft reset, phone is still getting stuck/looping on first splash screen.

I am not completely inexperienced with flashing roms but I've trying to fix this for a few day now and getting increasingly frustrated.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Fishawy:
That's because of the 2.xx.51.xx radio you mentioned above. Flash a 2.xx.50.xx radio and the phone will no longer get stuck.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] objecttothis:
Right, I understand that. So, as unofficial beta testers bug tracking is a natural part of it, or at least it has been in my QA experience. You have done quite a bit of bug fixing, and usually you are quite fast with it too. However, there are bugs that have been around (such as by dead-horse beaten Sense Music bugs) that you haven't gotten around to working out fixes to. This is fine, but it would be nice to have the bug tracking to know you have or haven't fixed something. The changelog does some of that but it doesn't track stuff that hasn't been addressed yet but is known.

Please know that I really enjoy your ROMs (I've been using them since my HTC Excalibur days) and I'm just trying to offer a suggestion to help.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] HeavyComponent:
Maxsense looks great! Will give it a try!

BTW: NRG, since the new HTC Message Client is out anyway you can add it to your download? After you do what you need to do with it of course to make it run smooth on your ROMS that is.

NRG tweeted awhile back to ask *if* he were to do language packs which languages people wanted. I don't have twitter but I put my vote in for Russian... don't know if he read that or not though since it was just in the thread.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Jersey_Sean:
Sorry I might not be making myself clear. Was using .50 radio with energy rom but in attempting to fix the problem reverted to stock rom via .exe which also replaces the radio. I am having the problem whether a cooked rom with .50 radio and now with stock rom which uses as part of the package a .51 radio. I thourght I should try a stock rom to try and fix my issue.

Really not sure what to try next as phone will not stop resetting long enough to establish activesync or transfer rom file to sd card.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] HaaSarD:
Yeah, i'm rather agree with you, it would "delete" the last little "bad" point which is on your awesome ROMs !! :)

So, NRG, if you read us and think that the HTCMessagingClient is finally good enough (i think it is but it's not my decision :D) to come in your ROMs ... I'm waiting your next release !! :)

Thanks for all your great work anyway ;)

(And yes, your new post is better ;) )
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gwbard:
Hate to say it, but from the looks of it you appear to have a hardware problem. (motherboard, possibly -- power system, maybe)

Based on your posts, I'd say you are not a total noob and you seem to have done everything correctly. Now that you have a stock ROM back on the device -- it may be time to take it to the shop...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] objecttothis:
Jersey, this is a longshot but I bought my HD2 used and when I got it I was getting that same cycle through the start screen. The cause ended up being the contacts on the battery being slightly bent so they weren't connecting right. Can you take a look at those... my problem was intermittent.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nicedude_abad:
Seems like a hardware prob as gwbard suggested. Did you try using task29. Just give it one go and if that doesn't work I guess it's time to go to the shop. Make sure HSPL is also removed.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] objecttothis:
Rayad, you're right, but some of the bugs aren't things that can be fixed without tweaks made during cooking. Also, while we as "beta testers" do well to do a lot of leg work to post problems, and find workarounds and fixes, it wouldn't hurt to have a centralized location of current bugs in progress. So for example, I found a fix that intensely speeds up the time it takes to load the music tab and for now if people want to find the fix they either need to stumble across my signature or do the same searching that I had to do. Why not have a post at the front of the thread with the current bugs and status. As far as I know, NRG hasn't yet worked the reg hack that's in the cab on my sig, so it's status would be as a workaround.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Jersey_Sean:
Thanks but battery contacts seems ok. It could be something internal - motherboard etc. - but I still thinks its software related. The rom is not loading. Before it restarts, the first white screen (without the red text showing radio, rom etc.) displays for 25 seconds or so. If I leave the phone powered off for an hour or so, the rom does then load but after some use with soft reset.

I guess I'm not a noob but I'm not expert either.

Could overwriting HSPL help?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] objecttothis:
Well, if you can still get into the boot loader (hold vol down while turning device on) then you haven't bricked it. Which HSPL is on there now? What is on the screen in the boot loader? (sorry if you said it already... I tried to look through your posts but missed it if you already said).

OK, I have HSPL2, but I think I remember you saying that this is a european version of the handset. Don't flash that until someone else here can confirm that it works... I'd hate for you to brick your phone on my advice and I just don't know either way.

My bootloader reads:

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

If HSPL 2 is a compatible HSPL then it'd be worth a shot to see if that fixes your problem.

Touch.dll

Thanks NRGZ for the great ROMS.

I have one of the early HD2s, it has jitter problems, most of them can be cured with the various touch fixes around BUT they have never completely gone.

I installed the Energy Cookie ROM from the 6-June & ALL the jitters disappeared, looking at the REG settings (HKLM\HARDWARE\Setting\TouchPanel) I noticed that there is now jitter control.

This new touch.dll seems to have caused problems with later HD2s & has been removed from later ROMS.

I there any way the newer touch.dll can be put into a cab for those of us that need it ?

Thanks.

XDA_UC not loading wallpaper_sense.png

So the May 31 Dinik glass cookie 23569 worked with this and I just flashed and noticed that XDA_UC did not copy it over. As far as I understand, the big difference between the versions is that the June 11 is CHT 1.8. XDA_UC *is* copying the welcomehead.192.png just fine. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I've done some searching but didn't find anything. I'm certain it's in the right location because it was working fine with May 31 and I followed NRG's post at the beginning of the thread to get there.

I wish there was a version of the rom with htcs original messaging, i find the one its replace with causes too much problems and is generally ugly

also on internet explorer when you view a video online no longer directs that to the streaming software for some reason, a shame i loved that about internet explorer it just asks to download the video now kind of annyonying.

Thanks for the roms energy hooked on them now lol :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Jersey_Sean:
Thanks but I did see that but understood it to be a different problem. My phone was not freezing but resetting randomly and then not restarting. I suspect that a bad chip is the culprit.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] seanchen:
Thanks for your advices.

I am using the same rom as you. For normal time and date setting, there is no problem. I could find any year after 2001. But it is not the same when I try to modify "Birthday" and "Anniversary" in contact details.

Have you read the year 1st two digits (shows on the top), not only the last two (shows in the roller)? I could see 99 to 01 too. But if you read it carefully the first 2 digits, it initially starts from 1902, and up to 2001 only (yes, it is only 100 years). But I am asking how about the year after 2001 in "Birthday" and "Anniversary". What could we do?

1) I have tried rolling backwards. No change. The problem still exists

2) I only flash energy rom and never flash any other rom from the beginning up to now. If we need to do task29, does it mean we need to do task29 everytime when there is a new version from chef?

Would you please try to check again that could you really choose the year after 2001 (e.g. 2002, 2010) in "Birthday" and "Anniversary"? Thank you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Jersey_Sean:
One step ahead of you.

Now using HSPL2.08 and having re-flashed 11/06 energy rom, phone is not starting/rom not loading. Going to leave it a little while and try to start phoen again. Still unsure if this is a hardware (bad chip) or software fault. If this latest action does not work I guess it must be hardware and I must have exhausted every method to fix the software.

Translucent Top and Bottom Curtains

Hey @NRGZ28 tweeted this the other day "The next cookiehometab release will bring automatic skinning of the top and bottom bars in WM! Yay! :)"

I'm curious if anyone knows where I can find instructions to manually skin the top and bottom curtains? I've been looking around but can't seem to find anything. What I'd really like is to make them translucent (perhaps 50% alpha shading).

BG Tweak

BG Tweak is IMO the best, and allows to tweak the translucency/opacity levels - but MUST follow post 1 & 2 carefully.

Also get the latest "b7" build from later in the thread.

Good luck, let us know how it goes for you...

Hirshy

EDIT: Here's the latest b7 build: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6473292&postcount=652

Important:

When using current v1.5b7 with CHT 1.8, do NOT select a "Sense UI MOD" in the application (ignore first-run popup).

Just leave the "Settings" tab in the app alone so it reads "Installed:None" for the MOD type.

This CHT incompatibility will be fixed in latter versions.

For now you can just use the taskbar skinning in the "Action" tab.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mitko76:
Thanks for the response NRGZ28.

That would be very nice of you.

A lot of people (including me) think that the 1.7x/1.8 base is actually faster than the 2.xx one.

Well at least on the european version of hd2.

however as I said for me the speed is not the main issue, but the call quality.

I am pretty sure that if you add this rom base to your menu, people will be happy to test it and provide a good feedback. If you decide to do it, you can start with 1 or 2 rom versions (I know you are busy) just to see how is it going.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] objecttothis:
Hey thanks for this. I installed BWizard because it seemed like the least invasive. It kinda works. What it's doing is cutting off the top and bottom of a wallpaper and re-skinning the top and bottom curtains with those strips. The problem with that is that things don't quite perfectly line up, and when you switch to landscape mode it just stretches the image instead of rotating it and re-skinning the bars.

NRG posted several times in that thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681341) because he was wanting to cook it into our...er, I mean HIS ROMs. Since NRG isn't sloppy, he will either figure out a way to do it so that landscape still works and everything lines up, or he'll use a different method.

It would be nice if there could just be an alpha level setup. I'll look into BG Tweak next.

Update on Sense Alarm not playing MP3's

Awhile back I reported a problem with the SenseUI Alarm not being able to play MP3's and having a bunch of erroneous wav, etc files. I haven't made progress on the erroneous files because the SenseUI alarm just shows any wav file in the \Windows\ folder.

Using other alarm programs and converting files were amongst the suggestions but the goal here is getting the SenseUI alarm program to list MP3's.

Here's what I found: the SenseUI alarm *is* capable of playing MP3's as alarms. Here is the workaround until someone figures out how to do this:

- Drop your MP3 into \Application Data\Sounds\

- Tap Start -> Settings -> Clock & Alarms

- Slide over to Alarms at the top

- Tap the alarm you want to set the MP3 for

- Tap the Sound dropdown and select your MP3

- Tap OK

Now when you open the SenseUI alarm it will show under "Alarm sound" as the static location of your mp3 (\Application Data\Sounds\[Filename].mp3 and it plays just fine. This is only a workaround because every time you want to change the sound you have to redo the procedure.

Also, I tried setting the "default alarm program" as the Windows Mobile alarm but it's not listed as an option.

Yeah, if we could get a good way to have multiple people edit the post or document that would be nice... or it would at least save one person a lot of work.

I've started an excel spreadsheet... which could easily be posted as a google document open for editing... at least until some idiot decides to screw with it. If everyone promises to be nice to the document then we could just use that as a bug tracker.

The other option is starting a new thread but I think that would have one person doing a lot more work. If anyone wants to volunteer, go for it. I'm getting ready to move to Central Asia so I don't have the time at the moment.

EDIT: that is unless NRG wants to implement this kind of thing into this thread and just have someone maintain it here.

EDIT2: The attached document is just a sample. I know the dates prolly aren't accurate and the information is not complete. It's also OK for NRG to say "the status is: that's not going to change or wait for HTC"

2. I'm not using qwerty mode keypad..I use the phone keypad mode..on sms or text I can change the qwerty to phone keypad, but on screen that need to enter password (I've tried it on MSMyphone screen) it return back to qwerty...I got big thumb, therefore I need phone keypad...

3. Is it possible to change the startmenu layout to 3 column?

4. I backup my contact and appointment using MSMyphone...After installing this ROM I try sync it..but, I can't see my contact returned to phone, nor the appointment..when I check the net, now the MyPhone backup is empty! It seems that the phone not copy it, but the net is emptying my backup...
