I'm quoting NRG on this one (it's his world and we are just playing in it). I don't blindly follow what he says (I try to test everything), but I have seen this first hand on my own devices and will say that it is sound advice.

When using apps like SPB Backup or Sprite Backup, settings that might have been causing problems in the previous ROM could be carried over to the new ROM. Especially registry entries, dlls, app settings, etc. For instance, an app that you backed up could possibly overwrite a newer version of a dll and cause all sorts of havoc. This is especially relevant to Sense as it is so dependent on the correct dlls being installed, but can also apply to the Windows Mobile core. Given that we don't really know when a dll might change between ROM dumps, it can cause some major system instability. These types of situations lead to him having to spend more time looking for a bug when one really doesn't exist, where he could be spending his time cooking in new features.

Personally, I try to cab up all of my tweaks and then use XDA_UC to reapply them. I do the same thing for my settings and apps. I have never had any issues with the Settings Exporter, however, I don't generally do a lot of interface tweaks that can't be exported using SE and also CHT Editor.

However, with that said, I know that there are members here who swear by other backup apps that NRG does not recommend and have been just fine. It boils down to a YMMV situation...

New thread specific to Titanium ?

I have an HD2 with Energy Titanium ROM (Jul 14).

This ROM is on a league of its own; way better, much faster, and more stable than any of the other 6 ROMs I tried. Big thanks to NRGZ28, but I have a request:

Please consider creating a new thread for the Titanium ROM.

1- Titanium seems to be updated on a different schedule. Last update Jul 14.

The current thread title used now does not reflect when the ROM was updated,

2- Titanium has totally different issues for discussion:

The great majority of things discussed in this thread pertain to sense on which all who use Titanium have given up long ago.

Thanks again NRGZ28 for saving my HD2 which I was on the verge of selling.

Your Titanium ROM transformed it from a buggy unstable phone into the best phone I ever had.

Adding another problem to this:

- Manual flash should turn flash on... this is useful because in dark places it enables me to see what I'm pointing the camera at, before taking the picture.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] adamelphick:
I had this on last version as well... it just does not rotate back if you say have opera in landscape and then close and flip phone - if you install Anastasia Endkey 4.5 you can restart sense from the EndKey press screen - so not too bad.

I was just wondering if anyone else noticed that the swype keyboard is shifted down a little bit leaving a gap and covering a bit of the bottom bar on the 23672 build. It has been like this for awhile now and I was wondering if anyone else had that problem of if there is even a fix for it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rugged96:
I just listened to a couple of songs and didn't notice any skips. I will keep listening and will see if it happens and let you know.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sumflipnol:
You're thinking of flash as a photo light, no? I was searching for some tweaks that would let me do that in June, but a ROM chef finally answered my query.

The old HTC camera drivers that came with the old stock ROMs enabled you to use flash as a photo light. The newer drivers do not allow you to do that. IMO, taking pictures in the dark is almost useless because of this -- you don't know what you're taking a picture of, the camera doesn't have time to focus on the image (because it can't see anything), and when you're taking pictures of people, their faces turn very white! Unfortunately, the drivers must be cooked in the ROMs.

The only workaround is to install TorchButton, turn it on, then open the Camera. This workaround doesn't work with the HTC Flashlight App because it closes when running in the background.

It's been like that for all WM6.5.x builds since Swype was ported over. However, I don't know of any fixes.

Cookie vs. standard ROM+cookie cab

Some interesting observation..

I have occasional freezes and slow response on 23673 cookie ROM, not a dead behavior that asks for a soft reset, just some sluggishness.. I was reading the comments about adding cookie to a standard ROM is a cure for it, so have decided to try it. So I made task 29 (just in case, it won't hurt). flashed 8/6th 23763 standard ROM and had the two cookie cabs (1.8.5) in XDA_UC.

Observations:

1. sluggishness after over night idle- gone.

2. response to unlock screen - better (quicker), time wise. Returns to screen faster.

3. Freezes - none experiences so far.

Now comes the interesting part- battery life seems to get improved. I have no clue why or if there is any correlation but I have longer battery life over 24 hours use. I actually can allow myself not to charge every night now (I don't use 3G). Impressive.

speed - amazingly fast, at least as good as the cooked cookie, if not better, so this is looking like my new way of flashing from now on.

NRGZ - I am sure you know it is more stable. I think it is more battery sane (but don't know why). Just FYI.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EngineerMind:
Why is there both "Record" and "Start Recording" in the phone call pop-up menu?

I just figured out how to use the "In Call Recording" - when you are on a call, press the right "Menu" softkey and scroll to the bottom of the items and you will see a "Start Recording" option, which when selected will "beep" and start recording BOTH sides of the conversation. Then you can press "Stop Recording" also located at the bottom of the popup phone menu (which will also beep loud when stopped"). Then you can view the recorded calls in the "In Call Recording app". Simple enough once you know there's two parts to this app (in the phone menu, and the stand alaone player).

But, then my question is, when I first pop-up the phone menu - around the center position of the menu is a selection called "Record". When I press it, nothing happens expect if I pop-up the menu again, it says "Stop Recording" at the same center positionin the menu.

So, does anyone know what this "other" record/stop recoding menu selection does?

has anyone the answer to locking the call/end buttons yet? ...think in original ROM it worked if you installed "in call lock" (doesnt work for hd2 only locks end button) i havent found anything able to lock the call/end buttons?

(comin from blackstone s2u2 and in call lock worked like a charm, only could slide to answer if you hit the send/end buttons they would do nothing...anyone have an answer?)

thanks! :(

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nrfitchett4:
I'm not understanding???

I have mine set to slide to answer/end and there is a setting that says use power button to end call, make sure that is off.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fallenangel408:

I am very curious about this too. There was a time when it would do it over the WiFi. If anyone knows how to get it to do that again that would be awesome!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rugged96:
interesting...I'm willing to try this--not because I've noticed anything in my version but simply to see how battery life changes. There are so many variables for battery life and I really like the dinik glass version it would have to be big enough to give that up in exchange....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] BillTheCat:
Likewise, all I'm doing is personalizing things like volume, ring wifi and other settings. The problem is backing up and restoring installed apps and their respective settings and registration data. That can be a life's work on its own. I guess I'll just have to take my chances using SPB.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] BigE:
Good luck, and let us know if you see any battery improvements too. It is quite hard to make a scientific observation when one has only one phone.. I looked at battery drain in several occasions and they seem to be identical per process, yet the over all result of the past 2 days suggests the phone needs less battery in a 24 hours period. I have to admit, though, that weekends are more quiet for me, and this phone is used for business, so i may be fooling myself to believe it has better battery life.. Let me know what you see.

ass for DINIK - you can always have his set of icons loaded as cabs later. I used to have it too, but after a while I went back to NRG's 'standard' ones as they became nicer and nicer..

InCall Recorder vs. "Record" in dailer...

This is the default Microsoft implementation for WM6.5 dialer. It stores recorded audio into the "Notes" application (shortcut in the Office folder). The "InCall Recorder" is just HTC's sleeker implementation.

MS version can be removed from the Menu with a reg tweak, but the files will still be cooked, so I guess two options are better than one!

Hope this helps,

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] rishishah:
I fully agree with these observations.

I have been using the Standard Energy ROM + Installing CHT and Editor myself via XDA_UC. I never get any issues with freezing or dimming or the other things people complain about. I use 3G and HSDPA and generally get a much bettery life with the Standard ROM (with CHT+Editor) installed myself rather than using the cooked in version. I have also not figured out why, but it seems to work for me and hence i have never gone back.

I always wait for the Standard Energy ROM to come out as it gives me no issues what so ever.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] abmantis:
Yes, exactly! It's hard to take pictures in the dark because I'm not sure if I'm pointing in the right direction and because the camera does not have enough time to focus...

So it's a driver characteristic... shame :( the stock drivers would turn the flash on but they take too bright photos with flahs :/

I'll try your suggestion with TorchButton :) thanks.

Hi All,

I got an annoying problem on Opera come with Energy ROM. Since my operator provide two 3G connections (with and w/o proxy), weather update will use Connection A, while I use Opera, it will disconnect A, and connect to B.

Then when it is time for weather update, it will disconnect B and connect to A again.

Later when I use Opera again, it will disconnect A and connect to B.....x10000.

No such problem when using IE, and the only solution now is to install Opera again, and then it will not use specific connection.

Any expert can told me how to solve this problem without reinstall Opera??

Q: Which is the best Radio to use with EnergyRoms ...... ?

A: There is no "Best" Radio, they seem to be Location and Preference dependant. Some have better Recetion but poor battery life and vicaversa. Try out the "big 4" to see which works best for you (2.(07/08/09/10).50.xx_xx) just make sure it is a 50 and not a 51 version --> example 2.07.50.xx is good but 2.07.51.xx is not

C. Results vary by provider and location, so what is best for me isn't necessarily what is best for you.
