No problems :

If you use "Pure Calendar" and "ADWLauncher ex" you will have a scrollerable calendar on homescreen, that works fine (see picture)

A good offline reader is "ReadMe".

So there a no reasons for you to stay away from android:D

And another one bits the dust...

Not sure why everyone is so eager to change to Android. Honestly I have been using all kinds of Android devices and none were able to do anything more then my Windows Mobile was capable of doing. Just because Android is in the meantime capable to do the "same" things as Windows Mobile I dont see a need to change. Especially if I think about all the Apps I would have to repurchase for no reason. Not even talking about all the Navi Maps from around the world. By the way iGo and Co. on Android are a joke against Navigation under Windows Mobile.

Oh well enjoy, I will keep playing Angry Birds on my BlueAngel from 2004. Because in my Book 7 years and running is what makes a Device valuable. Will see if I can use the HD2 for another 5 Years. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Sugocy:
True! The HD2 is still the best device out there! Multi-platform:) I dont like android over WinMo, but if WinMo doesnt speed up there WP7 fanbase I dunno else what to do than switch to android.

No (SD) built has come close to what WinMo can do ATM! And the worst thing: so many copy cat functions made or made to perfection by XDA developers.

Im sticking to WinMo as long as I can, though Whatsapp is a must in my social life nowadays :( Damn.....annoying....

Hope some more will keep on letting WInMo live!:)

Cheers,

Sugocy.

P.s. is it possible to subtract the MP3 trimmer from Blackstone ROM to install it via a cab file on my HD2/Leo?

Thanks alot for the advice:

- "ReadMe" is exactly what I need!

- I will try the others during next days

Push email / wi fi / data cionnectio

Hi everybody, may be somebody know how to solve following issues.

When I use direct push of email i have two things I do not like:

1. When I talk by phone, the phones enables WIFI and tries to connect to exchange (most probably because data transfer is disconnected during call). Can I somehow make that it would not turn on wi fi during call and system will wait till i finish talking and then via mobile data transfer would download messages.

2. When I turn on direct push and disable data connection (after work hours), after some time active sync once again connects data and checks for email (just once). Once again disconnecting data transfer it does not connect itself any more.

My rom is 23150 gtx.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
I'm in. ;)

Last builds contain the same black (and imprecise) MP3 trimmer.

I'll try to extract it from and older version...

Edit :

And how's the one from this page ?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] M3PH:
All these things could be policies set my the system administrator. I use direct push and don't have these problems (but i also haven't set an OMA policies on the exchange server).

But point in point 2 you say you enable Direct push but disable data and activesync re-enabvles the data connection. It is suppose to do this. You can't have direct push enabled and not have an active data connection. I also don't understand why you would disable your data connection during a call. Are you still using WAP? or do you have THE worst cellular provider ever? Anyway, as i said the wifi thing is probablt a policy set by the exchange server and you will need to talk to your sysadmin about having it changed. The only other possiblity is you are using a data connection management program and that is the cause
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] martynas:
1. I use EDGE for data connection, 3g data transfer I have disabled, as it uses to much of battery and coverage is not so good yet. I have assumed that during call data transfer is automatically paused and the "line" is given for a voice transfer, then after you finished talking it resumes data transfer. It looked for me reasonable, as few times when I had no connection to mobile network at all (while direct push was on), direct push started enabling wi fi after few unsuccessful tries of establishing data connection.

2. - I disable at the end of the day both - direct push and data connection. But still active sync syncs everything once again after that.

Earlier I had no these issues. Just I do not remember now if it was with the same ROM I am using right now... If it's server policies, then most probably I will have to accept as it is. IT changes in serves something time after time. So it might be the case.

The only data management program I see (it's was cooked in rom) is "Data controler". And there are not so much settings there. The only thing is enabled is "Allow apps to initialize internet". So it looks that direct push is initializing WI FI, when cannot get a connection via edge(While talking or no network connection), and when direct push is turned off it connects to internet for one more time...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] M3PH:
If your using EDGE the data connection should still be active even when voice is used unless for some reason your carrier can't support that.

As for point two. If you have the schedule in active sync set to "as items arrive" in the off peak period or have some really wierd "on peak" times even if direct push is disabled activesync will re-enable it and do a sync. Also if there is a policy update check scheduled, activesync will attempt to connect to do the chekc (and no you can't stop it from the phone)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] martynas:
I searched internet after your post. That data transfer and voice call are supported at same time when phone and network supports DTM. HD2 supports it, but could not find any settings on the phone to check if it is "on". Also could not find out if my network supports it. So it seems the first problem is that either I disabled the feature on the phone (and cannot find in any advanced and other settings), either your are right and time after time it is not supported by my network for any reason.

UPDATE: called my carrier - DTM is supported. So it seems it is my phone or some settings problems.

point two. I checked in settings - after I turn of direct push, in active sync the schedule becomes "Manual"...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] lewrydiboys:
NRGZ28, I've been following you about one year and a half and it's time to move on. Thank you for your hard work, always looking to bring the best of our HD2. The path is now Android. I'm selling my powerful cell phone. I have great moments with your work. Once again, thank you. Hope find you in Android Roms.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ottoman96:
Here here!

I'm actually ordering an HD2 as we speak, upgrading from a Topaz... I personally couldn't wait to flash one of NRG's legendary roms just like i did on my topaz, and am really sorry to hear that this is it :(

I dislike android still, almost as much as WP7... I'm still happiest with a good winmo build and customizable EVERYTHING :D but it won't be quite the same without energy roms...

I've got 3 (soon to be 4) winmo devices and I'll keep it alive as long as they live!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Snypie:
I am using this ROM. Since then the G-Alarm has a problem with NETCF. I set the alarm, but it has no sound or no vibration and i become an error. What should i do? Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] swiss420:
Dont worry you are not the last one. Maybe you could help us a little. Which exact ROM are you using? Best if you just copy the whole name of the file you downloaded. I am using g-alarm on a friends HD2 and since he still got a job I would expect it to work. ;) Maybe a screenshot or some more details of the error might help also.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] NRGZ28:
I can continue to develop these, but there's very little incentive for me to do so. HTC nor Microsoft aren't releasing any more updates for them, so there's really nothing else I could update...:/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] stevedebi:
I would guess that there isn't much possibility of burning WP7 ROMs?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] swiss420:
Have you used WP7? It would be wasted of NRG's time to Cook WP7 ROMS. ;) I got Boy-PPC's Mango Build on my Second HD2 and basically it is a mobile Xbox. :p In case you are just asking if it is possible to flash WP7, it is. After all thats why we own HD2's. Its the only Phone with WM, WP7, Android Support. Just flash Magldr 1.13, enter USB Flasher and flash WP7. But after fighting with Activation and Synchronising Outlook Contacts I am preaty sure you will come back to the real Mobile OS, WM!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JVH3:
I think I found the reason the WiFi is turning of for you.

It is the Cookie 2.0 WiFi toggle widget. It has been reported to turn WiFi on for no reason.

See thread WiFi keeps turning on automatically
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
Interesting.

I've been looking for a true "airplane mode" toggle, and the more efficient way is actually achieved from the Comm Manager.

I also noticed that all other toggle widgets but the Comm manager's would only bring GSM back upon switching back on.

(I was looking for a good one for my custom Endkey menu).

BTW, the "Wi-fi on" effect doesn't bother me, since I want it to be always active in order to link to my home or office network as soon as I turn the phone on (3G reception is terrible there).

Since I noticed the Comm Manager's "airplane mode" switch would bring back all but "data" (but it's normal, since I set it to automatically disable when not needed), I think I'll use Kheb again to compare the registry before and after using this switch.

Maybe I'll be able to build a more efficient registry-based toggle feature, then. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nadimaj:
The latest Energy ROM is missing the status notification icons, the ones that give you info about free storage space, voltage, temps, memory etc.

I also have a WiFi issue with it going off randomly.

Another annoyance, the toggle switches no longer vibrate upon pressing. Anyone know where this option might be?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JVH3:
WiFi turning off randomly is different than WiFi turning on randomly. It turns off when the screen shuts off.

To keep WiFi from shutting off when the screen shuts off, see this thread and install the cab: Thread for WiFiNoStandby Cab
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mister B:
can he not do that via Rom included BSB tweaks app ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JVH3:
In the thread, it explains what it does, but I'll put it here.

It changes 4 registry settings. But, Windows Mobile resets them on restart, so it also puts an exe in the startup folder to reset them.

These are the registry entries that it modifies.

[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}]

Default=1

[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}]

Default=1

[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}]

Default=1

[HKLM\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms]

HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended=1

After applying the setting through BSB tweaks. Restart the phone and check those registry values.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Symondo:
Hi

I've just installed the Energy ROM and added the CHT2 Suite. All appears to run well and very happy with the look/performance.

However... I have 2 niggling problems which maybe connected -

The screen turns itself off while im using the phone, irrelevant of what im doing - writing a text, browising the internet etc... it turns the screen off. I checked backlight settings but all looks normal.

Secondly when i try n reset the phoene after this happens the hardware keys dont respond, the phone will not reset and task bar looks to dissapear (as is a system crash) I end up having to remove the battery.

Anyone with a similar issue?

Ive also installed a few sense tweaks suchas transparent weather background and calendar etc.. and also the Nordclampers SMS/Email skins. Ive also used some of the Tough of Glass skins for CHTS and a few widgets.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mr Black'd:
For this probably the proximity sensor is the reason, there is a toggle switch you can add as quick link that can make the problem disappear. For the other issues that you have I don't have a clue so wait for a reply from another member. ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] swiss420:
For the hanging issue I would use the TaskManager and look for the culprit. Probably something consumes all the Memory. Definetly check how much RAM gwes.exe, device.exe, and manila.exe among others consume. I belief Soti Pocket Controller or similar has a Resource Monitor to see on your desktop what is happening in the background on the phone. Also let us know if you have the EU or US HD2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
it happens to me when using CHTlockscreen the device is not unlocked properly by the unlocker slider. The device get working but after a few seconds the screen turn off and the hard keys not responsive. Be sure to unlock properly, even get back to lockscreen (using lock-toggle) and use the unlock slider, or just dissable CHTlockscreen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Symondo:
Ahh now i never thought about that - ive disabled the CHT lock screen to see how this affects things. it does appear to be when the phone gets unlocked the isues start :)

As for the hanging issue - i imagine this maybe related? its a UK HD2 and im sure theres plenty of memory available but next time i shall try and have a look
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mastiff:
Sad to hear that there will be no more updates. :( I guess the latest Max Sense will be on my phone, along with my wife's, daughter's and son's phones for the forseable future. Because of some home automation software we can not go to anything but WinMo, so I guess I'll have to stock up on extra HD2's and keep backups of the Energy Max Senes fourth of July 2011 ROM at least three different places! So long, and thanks for all the fish...eh ROM's! ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
I have a SPB backup of the phone and the rom is loaded. The phone works fine and has become a phone/tool. The hobby has gone out of it. No big hurry to test NAND. Hoping to play with Energy port, when available.

The price on Craigslist here in Los Angeles for used HD2, has not budged. If anything, seems to have increased. I am in market for one to use for Android as I use my Sensity Rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
Can the downloaded apps be saved and reinstalled? I am very fond of Associated Press, AP and Weatherbug.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mastiff:
King200, Android is OK for a tablet. I have HoneyComb on my Adam, my son has it Froyo on his Adam, and my daughter has HC on her Asus Transformer. But for a phone? Not so good. But then I'm old... I've been using PPC from 2000 or something like that... Old habits die hard, I guess. HD2 are getting quite cheap here in Norway, btw. Got one almost not used for half of the price before they went out of sale.

Edit: Borrowed my brother's Android phone (think it was a Desire, it's the official "HD2 lookalike with Android") and I really didn't like it. That's why I can say that I don't like Android on phones.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mister B:
Yeh I been using it sinse 2003. I tried Android via the desire model.

Did not prefer it as an everyday usable device & it lacked in language software & the simplicity of adding extra unicode fonts for complex languages, I had to merge fonts & patch font file into the system, would of expected a more logical font support solution from Google out the box.

Will be sticking with my HD2 on NRG WM ROM until device death & lack of spares force me to evaluate another option ... Supports all my required Asian languages easily, has good office doc support, great mail application. Great connectivity & unrivalled personel settings & tweaks to get everything functioning as you need (well almost! nothing is perfect but it is close to perfect)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
I'm actually making my own out of the latest 29022, just using HTC ROM Editor and HVEdit :

First, making it use less internal sorage memory :

- Removing useless files (remaining zip files, unnecessary language files, keeping just one - as you can always add other ones if you want)

- Replacing inadequately themed items such as WM radio and check boxes, some Manila picture files...

- Replacing some remaining mistranslated MUI and XML Manila files

- CFC compressing some huge QTC pictures occupying too much room

- Replacing a few remaining inadequate version resource files I didn't found before

- Including my own modified (scroll bug free) 3x3 Internet tab and 4x4 HTC Contacts tabs, and a few other cosmetic adjustments

- Now I found a way to modify hive files, I'll be able to include my registry tweaks too

Then adding some features :

- I still have to finish to test and translate a good stable HTC Messaging add-on

- Including my custom Documents and eReader tabs (with the DRM-free ebooks database management added to the menu)

- More Start menu folders with their own icons, and moving all documents files to the SD card

- I also have to finish my direct access system to all usual documents folders, directly from the Start menu and CHT quicklinks, with tons of Energy-style new folders icon made by my friend dGarcia. :)

Of course, I won't release this ROM publicly as it's NRGZ28's property. It's for my personal use and my children's only (yes, I'm raking eBay for HD2s, as no other device allows so much flexibility and so many OSes :P), unless he allows me do so.

I'm only working on a French WM6.5.3 Energy style version, and won't probably have much time to make a lot of other ones anyway. It would most probably be 4 versions only : WM 6.5.3 Energy and GTX, French and WWE, if I'm allowed to go any further. I don't have the necessary localized resources files handy anyway (or it would have to be a team work, which is always an interesting possibility). :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mr Black'd:
Ζ80 I see you have been busy... great stuff man... I will pm you cause I might want some help in doing similar stuff in my device as well. ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jfrm:
Now that the end seems close, a Windows folder cleaning and maybe adding some extra energy folder could be a god goal to reach a "FINAL" version. Maybe you could team with the Chef and make it available for al us, the windows mobile orphans..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
I don't think we infringe NRGZ28's property if we share information. Anyway, except for the files names 4 digits country codes, the remaining problems and their cures are all the same.

For instance, I kept all I removed or replaced from the ROM in a garbage folder, so I have a complete list of those files. I was somewhat afraid something important was lost in the process, possibly causing problems... But I was wrong to worry about that. Not only the ROM runs perfectly, but it's damn faster and smoother ! :D

About the amazing speed, I suspect it could be because I didn't install the eReader tab this time, only the Documents tab. I still have to make some more tests to be sure either if it comes from this tab (and possibly fix it), or if it's just the new ROM layout. :D

Windows folder cleaning was actually my main goal, as I wish to install more tabs, so I need internal memory space.

I could save 24 MB so far. ;) Considering the necessary overall ROM size, the many tools (and I tend to add more of them rather than removing any), the total available memory and the amount of memory left, I'm really satisfied with the result. :)

I told you about my project because people were sighting about having no new ROMs...

Actually, this builds looks pretty stable, so it's just a matter of detailing, now. ;)

My trials are intended to check is my project is viable or not. It looks like it is...

I intended to send the complete changes suggestions list to NRGZ28 anyway, whatever he wants to do with them or not. ;)

I mean, no need to get a new build from Microsoft to make a new ROM. You can still keep the MS build, and build a better ROM around it. :)

For instance, the Opera version includied in the latest Energy ROM is far better than some previous ones. Some of them wouldn't open a link to XDA from the Twitter tab, for instance, or would just display a blank screen when opening the third tab in the browser, where this one works OK.

However, Opera 9 can still crash from times to times, so it's not absolutely perfect. On the other hand, Opera 10 doesn't support progressive zoom at all, so even using a pinch-to-zoom additional utility (thus making the overall system a bit heavier and potentially less stable) isn't satisfactory. That's the reason why opera 9 is still the most pleasant browser to use, even if it has a few drawbacks, mainly instability problems.

Another unstable program is Adobe Reader LE. Actually the only times I have to reset my HD2 are after having used either Opera or Adobe Reader ; otherwise, this ROM itself is pretty stable and reliable. As you can see, the problem only lies into third party apps that NRGZ28 can't control, except for trying to choose among different sub-versions, when available (not sure about Adobe Reader, for instance).
