BAD ADVICE... there is a reason why the battery needs to be above 50%. If the connection to the PC fails and the device is running on just battery and it dies, you get an incomplete flash and could possibly brick your device.

When connected to the charger, the stock battery should take no more than an hour or two to get above 50% from a completely dead state.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ~~Tito~~:
35% is the flashing limit for me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Airyphyla:
anybody care to awnser while i wait?

pretty please?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
The VVM app uses the same Media Player engine as Windows Media Player. As such, it has it's own volume independent of the system volume. What *usually* works for me is to launch WMP, set the volume to 100% and then close it. After that, VVM when played through the speaker is loud enough to hear.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
This is an issue with VVM and as such I would take it over to the TMO forums. There is nothing that can be done via ROM or anything else as it is a 3rd party, closed source app.

VVM saves your voice mails as sound files. So, they follow the same rules as WMP.

Now, one thing you could do is to use HD2ProximityLock to lock the screen, but it applies to every app and gets annoying IMHO...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
Have to agree with this, I tried VVM a while back on a couple of other ROMs and it did not do it on them either, it is an app issue not a ROM issue, it is very likely that TMO has some type of setting that they include that causes it to work, maybe peek at the registry on a stock phone and look for it, but it is a TMO specific issue.

I found the problem, and it's with the built in Messenger.

It doesn't happen with Parlingo.

So there you go, to anyone who asked.. Use Parlingo.

MSN Messenger is officially useless.

contracts tab problem

hallo every body,

I just flash last max sense rom and I have a problem with contacts tab... in that tab soft keys do not work (all people and menu). I suppose some manila files are missing...

can someone help me please? I search on many threads with no results... :confused:

really thanks if you can solve this!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
There is a fix a few pages back, just search for it, don't use max sense so I did not keep good track of it ....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Chances are, probably not.

If it is available as a cab, then you can install it OR have it auto-install using XDA_UC when you flash.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] overshadowss:
Its always working for me :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] overshadowss:
This is normal in all ROMS :) just go to start>tools>advance Config>messaging>SMS delivery notification:enabled>soft reset>well done :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] scriller:
I wish NRG would never use easy-share again....

am I the only the only one who's getting 75kbps? it went from 130kbps....right down to 75...and it keeps getting lower and lower.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] objecttothis:
I'm guessing that easyshare like every other download service does some amount of bandwidth throttling to provide incentive for people to pay for the fast download service. It also will depend on how many concurrent downloads are running from other users and not to mention the bandwidth available on your own connection.

What I do is start the download and go eat dinner or figure out something to do and it's done by the time you come back!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] anilfk:
I have figured out my initial problem with TCPMP... thanks for the initial help... actually it seems to be a problem with the initial mp3 set of files i was trying to play.... I thought there was an error because when i played the same set of files with windows media player, they played fine... tried another set with TCPMP and it worked fine... (just need to do a bit more 'debugging' to figure out exactly what i could be)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] overshadowss:
I think mediafire is the best :D and free :D

My flash results

I just want to post some of the things I experienced when flashing the new rom. I have been using the NRG roms for a couple of months now.

Initial flashing

Ran task29

flashed radio 2.12.50.02_2

flashed rom Energy.Leo.23673.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jul.17

Hard reset

small problem

I noticed that the rom still froze at the 'launching htc sence...'. This was not really a problem form me. I kept the rom during the day.

Huge improvement

I noticed an increase in speed, and increase in battery life!! The battery life is a huge improvement.

Another improvement is that the youtube links work now, I use that a lot.

Huge problem!!

Now at night I got a phonecall, and i noticed the speakers were not working, and when I try to end the call the whole phone freezes. I did a few soft and hard resets, but still no luck. This was a huge downer for me.

I decided to change the radio and do a new flash.

2nd flashing

Ran task29 again

flashed radio 2.07.50.27_2

flashed rom Energy.Leo.23673.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jul.17

Hard reset

I instantly noticed that the 'launching htc sence...' was fixed so I had a good feeling.

Now I made a phonecall and everything works fine now. Youtube links work. And the whole system is faster. But the best improvement is the battery life.

This is the best rom I have seen so far, so I am going to stick with it for a while. I am going on vacation soon for a month, so no flashing in that period, this is a nice stable rom to keep for that time.

Thank you guys for all the nice work!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
mine doesn't work either. Sure we could install the cab, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having it cooked in.

So for bug reports sake: TCPMP has no audio for me and some others on the jul17 236xx cht build.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
he took out slide 2 shutdown.

As far as the action screen, shut down, just worked for me, so I'm not sure why it's not working for you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Is anyone actually READING the changelog or is it there just for aesthetics?!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hinds:
Thanks you are right, that works. I don't recall having to do that before; but it works.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
what you can do is delete the link to goolgemaps using file explorer, Windows, Start Menu, Programs.

Then install the cab on the Storage Card. You shouldn't have any problems.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
BSB Tweaks, turn off the autolock. soft reset.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
1. I'm wondering if it is the memory mgmt that is causing programs to close (esp when opera is open) or if it's arkswitch. Someone mentioned mmtaskmanager, but that one would freeze up on me sometimes on my tp2.

2. Working for me properly

3. I have two soft buttons in sense mail view, Left goes to inbox, right is menu, that works as it should.

Did you hard reset after flashing?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Fishawy:
There's no "Programs closing automatically" issue unless you try to run a program while Sense is still launching. Using 23673 build, my Sense goes back to home screen after it's completely launched (and yes I tried running a program before launching & it was closed).

Guess you guys need to give your phone a couple of seconds after every reset, to be able to use it the way you like it.

Welcome :)

Glad it finally works.

As you can see, anilfk reported that it now works. So you may need to check the TCPMP settings, as well as the audio files you're trying to play.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] carlos_polanco:
Sometimes I've been in a desperate situation and have flashed a ROM with less than 20%.

I know is a bad advice BUT of course you have to do it with +30% of battery :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
maybe both use so much memory that one has to close to use the other.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bokechukwu1:
has anyone found a fix for the key board saving words on the newer energy roms released?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
search for jspa icon changer. follow the directions in the read me. change your icons, click menu, tools, sense tools, and have it clear your sense cache and restart.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
you are right, trying to play mp4 files. why does tcpmp start with volume muted all the way down??? I've never done much with it so didn't know that.

new question for tcpmp, is there a settings change so the video isn't so choppy? Just curious, obviously mp4's play best with the built in player, just curious.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Exactly correct... Sense is written in a way where it seems like it is fully loaded when in reality, it isn't. Developers do it all the time with splash screens and background loading.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] BigE:
happened to me too, but if you let it go for about an hour, it fixes itself.. No explanation what it is but it goes away. Jul-17th was less troubled by this. it is not only logging in, it is how much time it takes to update contacts' pics to the FB pic.and update status..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] BigE:
The answer is yes.

Would give you a better answer if there was a question in the post..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Fishawy:
On the other hand, you might wanna give the attached Windows Media Player 12 a try .. Better design can be instantly spotted.

Thanks for confirming it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cygee26:
hmmm

whats the stable radio for gtx july 17th? my battery drains very fast...

im glad the music player tab works perfectly... and the speed...

i used radio version 2.07
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
what's different about this than the built in wmp? Will it tie into the hardware acceleration?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] paul75:
Apologies haven't kept up with all posts in the thread but hopefully I can offer some feedback regarding the CHT lockscreen issues.

1. Have been sticking with the June 26 Cookie Reference 23xxx because I consider it to be a classic (:)) and I have not once been able to induce a freeze on this one, with both CHT lockscreen and second hand enabled.

2. Have flashed the July 18 Cookie Reference 23xxx - many thanks to NRG for offering this flavour again.

3. I'm able to induce a freeze with both CHT lockscreen and second hand enabled. Tried disabling the second hand (based on NRG's advice on twitter), and indeed I no longer seem to get a freeze in this situation (even with CHT lockscreen still enabled).

4. My impressions of the 23673 is that it is indeed snappier in general.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Fishawy:
Don't think so .. Read about it here, it's just a skin.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
thanks for the link and the cab. Seems less finger friendly than the standard wmp (didn't think that was possible).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Fishawy:
lol .. I love the design though.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ryuu55:
battery life

I flashed the new GTX yesterday. I took my phone off the charger at about 7:30am, moderate use today and I am at 76%. Battery life has been crazy good after this flash!!!

Thanx NRG
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] objecttothis:
I can second the battery life comment. I'm running Dinik July 17th. I just switched over to 2.08 on my radio two flashes ago and noticed improvement as I expected but the difference between July 16th and July 17th is phenomenal!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] anjuajax:
Go in to Manila Settings, Others (Miscellaneous Settings), Lock Config and uncheck the enabled option. I think also go through WM settings, system, lock config..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ilordvader:
Not able to change Lockscreen Wall papers :(

All i did was on Home screen

click - Menu / set wallpaper & choose - CHT Lockscreen

& tryed to set wallpaper from my Card or the ones we have pre set

none change :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
Stupid question, but is CHT lockscreen enabled ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Unless you are using the CHT Lock screen, then the wallpaper in CHT will not be set by the wallpaper app. You will need to go to Sense settings and select Lockscreen wallpaper there.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
that has been taken out of the newest ROMs.

The only way now is through BSB tweaks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
gotta problem y'all can probably solve.

Been using the default lock. Decided to change the lockscreen wallpaper under sense. Did that, now when I press lock, it does the weird lock where it changes the left soft button to "lock" and pressing it unlocks the phone.

How can I get the sliding lock back?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hinds:
The problem with the mail is when you open one email message. The menu button is disabled.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
I've never seen that and I can't replicate it here. All you did was change the lockscreen wallpaper?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
also now my screens are all screwed up, clicking on settings/all settings/ or the windows button, I'm getting rainbow screens.

any ideas before I wipe the device and never touch that lockscreen background again?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
that's it, through sense settings tab, personalize, tried to pick a wallpaper off my card, then clicked my quicklink for lock and all it did was the old lock version. So I did a soft reset and now the old style lock is still what happens and my menus are all messed up.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
not for me, sorry.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
I just flashed... let me see if I can replicate it... you might have a bad flash... OR, your SD card might be screwed (or getting that way).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
Sounds like some how you are back to the standard WinMo lock and not the Sense lockscreen, not sure how you got there, so no advice on how to get you back ....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
just enable cht lockscreen to see if that does anything different. will report back.

changing the lockscreen to cht works for the lockscreen, but my menus are still all jacked the hell up. Guess a hard reset is in order.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sumflipnol:
Your HD2's gonna explode. Open your safe, take out all its contents, put the phone inside, close the safe, and run away. You'll here a "poof", which means it's safe to retrieve your phone -- or what's left of it.;)

No, sorry. I guess you need to re-flash or something.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Yeah, I have to agree... I just sat here and TRIED to break it... couldn't.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
that's ok. hard resets aren't as painful as they used to be (thank god for mortcript, xda_uc, and settings importers)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CB620:
my flash has a stop sign over it in camera and video camera. cant enable it. how do i fix?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TheRomMistress:
Really? Are you serious? Click the icon that has the stop sign, it should swtch over...there are 3 modes. Always Flash, Auto Flash and No Flash
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CB620:
i soft reset and it worked. kept trying to change it was just greyed out and couldnt change
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
EUREKA!!!

update to my lockscreen/ menu troubles.

On a whim, decided to uninstall the last thing I installed which is KDFont.cab, a font switcher program preloaded with about a dozen different fonts.

Did a soft reset, and everything is back to normal.

I have no idea why a font cab would do the things it did, but I'm gonna drop Kliptik over at ppcgeeks.com a line letting him know.

On a side note, the fonts stick even after uninstalling the cab, so I still got my fonts!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TheRomMistress:
Thank goodness, I was scared for a sec there that one of our Senior Members didnt know how to put on flash :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
--Warning Off Topic--

Leave it to snasearles, do be the expert on flashing that does not involve ROMs, :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MAD_Matt:
broken vibrater (keep it clean!)

well the other day I noticed the vibrate on my phone sounded like it was rubbing against something so I started looking over my phone and the bottom of my led flash looked like it was pushed in. Thankfully T-Mobile is sending me another one! Just thought I'd share and say be careful with the flash!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CB620:
hahaha. i wouldnt know how to forgive myself. Anyone test desire v4 with this rom? is it working well?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TheRomMistress:
Hey now, Im not that much of an expert!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thatruth132:
is anyone having issues logging in to facebook from sense tab
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
there have been a couple of complaints. Seems to be effecting some but not most.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thatruth132:
i used task 29 i reflashed i did a little bit of everything butnothing seems to get it i guess i go back to a older build
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] brianaz25:
So I tried searching but didn't find anything... partially due to the limit of searches I can do in a certain time period (dumb)...

Is there any plan to cook the facebook 1.5 app into this rom?

what happens if i try to install it over the existing 1.1 app?

thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] darkriderz:
Got this 2 or 3 times too... Noticed it when inputting long WEP key... but it's gone now...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
From the Change Log for the new ROM

It really is a good idea to visit the front page of the thread and read the first few posts once in a while ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Crusoe86:
Before you play with BSB Tweaks...

I would say:

Go to "Settings -> System -> Lock Config" but Lock Config is gone :confused:

I don't see anything in the changelog about the removing?!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
From Changelog

So this applies to this version as well, as he did not state he put it back in ...

EDIT:

Come on guys, this is the second answer in a row that came from the changelog ....

EDIT2:

Have you tried turning off Lock on standby in the CHT settings?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Crusoe86:
The flash do not work if you battery is a bit low.

I noticed after a softreset I get more percent for a few minutes.

Could that be the reason for you?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Crusoe86:
OMG :o

Thank you... I swear I've seen it in 16. July :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Seems to be a recurring theme today?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thatruth132:
thanks for that but read what manual
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] S3BAZ10:
Uhm helloo! Are u ignoring my issue?! When i select to import contacts it says importing contacts and then says done but my contacts are not on my phone!?!?! Help!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sea_man:
Anyone have a delay in the music tab , in the jul 17 rom ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] PG101:
No delays.. here is what you should try

Soft reset the phone.. and let it load.. dont use it till after a minute or so of the phone loading sense...

Then try the Music tab..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Posts 1, 2, 3, and 4 describe how the rom works and what the changes are from version to version. There are also FAQ and other tidbits of information.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dotnetguyaz:
Are you serious? Wow...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sea_man:
I make this, but when i put in the music tab in sense it always take 30 sec or more to show the music, i don't have any app installed :( ( i'm using the GTX flavor)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] PG101:
I have 1.5 gigs of music and it takes about 4-5 seconds to fully load.. what do u have.. maybe you have a lot of music..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sea_man:
I have 4 Gb of music ( Micro SD class 4 8gb ), but whit the Jul 4 it load really faster.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TheRomMistress:
You know, you catch more flies with honey....and since no one here is obligated to answer your question (this is a freeROM), I highly doubt your going to get a response like that...you better hope NRG doesn't read your post
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] PG101:
I can only think of that... see if it works in a bit once the phone is more settled..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
Sick Em'!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] zkid2010:
Don't panic! Remain cool! I have this same issue but not with this rom. Simply import your sim contacts using sim manager and all is good.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] m0bmentality:
uhghhhhh going to bed.. when i wake up i should have a fresh and clean brand new hd2 on my door step...

anyone wanna guess how many seconds itll be till it has an NRG rom on it?

lol Not having a phone all weekend blew my mind.. lol.. so detached... guess i think i might start ebaying for a backup hd2 just incase i hit an accidental "brick" wall again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
Could be different versions of the PIMbackup proggy, could be a permissions issue, try disabling sense and trying the import, not sure why it should matter, but worth a try ...

Also if you have another backup from another date, try that one, I usually keep three or four backups at different times, just for instances like this , where you might need to test ...

Also just to test, try adding a contact making a backup, deleting the contact and then restoring from the backup, might get you pointed in the right direction ....

I am assuming you are using a backup program ...

If not, check the view under contacts, make sure it is set to show all contacts ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] zkid2010:
oh snap did he say he was using a backup prog? I may have missed that. I just import sim contacts after a flash (via sense) but for some reason it doesn't work in certain builds I've been flashing and I'm still trying to nail it down in my own osKitchen setup. Like the OP says it will count thru the contact list but they aren't there in *any* view...just weird.
