[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
Yes, it's not automatic, dude ! :D

Once you've flashed a new ROM, you actually get a brand new phone...

Though you may still locate and backup the involved registry keys and/or provisionning XML, I you can find them...

Maybe a new idea to add to NRGZ's settings backup and restore utility, if not present already ? :)

Since his signature indicates a 28244 ROM :

Except if he installed my full mods CAB (only one available then), his recorder is garanteed NOT to work. :)

So don't look at an actually full storage space : the recorder included in french ROMs was faulty, period. The CAB in my signature addresses all the bugs in all french Energy ROMs.

But you actually unveiled a point I wanted to discuss with NRGZ. :)

Yesterday, I was downloading a large file (using my "keep Wi-Fi alive in sleep mode" switch for the first time - and it worked very, very well, consuming very few battery current in the process, as just the necessary services are running), and stupidly let it go to internal memory... So I ended up with a really full storage space.

I then discovered I had only 25 MB free (after having deleted the partially downloaded file, of course) ! :eek:

- All my documents are stored on the SD card (and the default documents paths are all directed there, via the registry) ;

- I don't have any active email accounts on my HD2, only 25 SMSs and no MMSs ;

- I install only utility programs to main memory (OK, I installed and use a LOT of them :D), and only system related ones ;

- I then launched ClearTemp and recovered only 2 MB.

- The search for large files immdiately showed that about 2 MB were occupied in the \Windows folder by wallpapers NRGZ put in ROM ; BTW, there still are a few CABs there, too, though far less than in stock ROMs (they aren't useful IMO, once the files are deployed).

I also think that when you "replace" a file that's already present in ROM, the new version (that actually masks the ROM one, still there though not showing anymore) occupies additional room, so having included my fixes in ROM, the latest french 29017 and 21916 should now have more free space (unfortunately, my CABs do take a lot of space, as some replacement programs are really huge, especially the camera fix on the HD).

But I'd be really glad if useless stuff could be removed from ROMs as much as possible. Themes and wallpaper take a lot of room, and there could be only one set of them, for instance, and additional ones could be provided separately, as optional add-ons.

Unfortunately, only American (and some Australian as well) T-Mobile models have 1 GB internal flash ROM. European models have to struggle with half that size, what I really regret. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mr Black'd:
Sk Tools has an advanced clean function. I have managed to free from 5 to 25 MB from internal memory according to the occasion used.

You guys can give it a try.

Thx, I'm sorry, the changelog is to big for me, I run buying good eyes :o

For the Dinik version, I know, it's a crazy job... I hope "sometimes"...

But Why NRGZ28 don't post only the Fr mui files ?

I'll try to fix it.

Thx for all

It is a recurring problem ... and I think it's mostly related to album's cache --> is in the memory of the phone

Should move to SD and I think it's ok !

Just the cache.

@pepitoalex : Thx but it's not a problem of space, Z80-Man give us the solution.

Thx for all
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] stevedebi:
Up until very recently, I did not have to re-pair my BT. BT is in the Settings Backup utility. However for the past couple of flashes I have in fact had to go back in and re-pair the devices, even though they were already present in the BT summary screens.

However, I am using a new HD2 I got about a month ago, so that may well be the reason I had to pair again when I first flashed that one. But it still doesn't explain why I have had to pair my headsets with the past two flashes.

One possibility is that somehow the BT Tweaks modified the BT adaptor information that is used to pair with the headset.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
The HD2 shows a nice BT setup utility that does't exist on the HD... Maybe it behaves differently, I don't know.

Anyway, if you changed your HD2, you now have a different MAC address, so the BT peripheral may require a new pairing (I don't what information are exactly exchanged in the process).

Anyway, it can't be automatic if at least some information isn't restored in the registry and so on (the devices both exchange identity information), so I thought they might be saved and restored if you used NRGZ's settings backup tool...

Contact field areas are too dark for usage

As the title says, I am finding the contact field areas too dark. Instead of being on a white background with colored or black writing they are a dark reddish brown and this makes them unreadable.

I am using the 29017 Titanium version from March 16, 2011. Has anyone found this to be changed in the April 9th 2011 version? Is there a way for me to fix this w/o flashing the rom since this has been extremely stable?

There is a picture to illustrate my issue.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I'm pretty sure this was fixed around the beginning of this month or end of last month. Either way, it was updated and fixed.

Sense 3.0 for HD2?

@ NRG -

Perhaps I betray my ignorance, but are you able to do anything with the new Sense 3.0 dump for us die-hard WinMo users on HD2? Or is it an apples and avocados proposition... ? *Fingers crossed*
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Sense 3.0 is for Android. They never made it for WM. The two aren't compatible. Sense for WM is a full out skin of the OS. Sense for Android is basically a bunch of widgets.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
It's my opinion too. I happen to swap cards, or just pull it out to put in a PC card reader...

I can easily imagine the disaster ! :D

Though...

... Well, actually, I was wondering if it couldn't be figured out.

But of course, you'd have to be very careful having closed the programs that use them, if you are to remove the card.

First of all, I wouldn't move the system caches there at any cost.

As a result, the problem there is it would be a bad idea to just move the \Application Data folder to the SD card, so you'll have to found a way to move only selected applications' cache folders.

Here are what my first investigations gave :

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"Cache"="\Windows\Profiles\guest\Temporary Internet Files"
"Cookies"="\Windows\Profiles\guest\Cookies"
"History"="\Windows\Profiles\guest\History"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Facebook\ImageCache]
"Path"="\temp\fbimagecache"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office Mobile\Inet]
"AamCacheFile"="\Application Data\Microsoft\Office Mobile\aam.edb"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office Mobile\Inet\IAG]
"URLCacheFile"="\Application Data\Microsoft\Office Mobile\IAGURLCache.edb"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"DocumentExplorer.EmailAttachmentTempFolder"="\Application Data\HTC\EmailAttachment\DocExp\"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\WESTTEK\Westtek6Common]
"TempDir"="\Application Data\HTC\ParserCache"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office Mobile\SPMC]
"SQL DB Path"="\Application Data\Microsoft\Office Mobile\SPM Data"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office Mobile\Inet]
"AamCacheFile"="\Application Data\Microsoft\Office Mobile\aam.edb"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office Mobile\Inet\IAG]
"URLCacheFile"="\Application Data\Microsoft\Office Mobile\IAGURLCache.edb"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\FileSys]
"TempPath"="\Application Data\Volatile"

As you can see, some of them could be very well moved to the memory card, provided you don't unplug it while using the matching program, of course. :D

Browsers and Facebook image caches and email attachments would benefit from being stored elsewhere.

But I won't touch the last key, for instance... Since the micro SD card can actually be hot-unplugged, you would crash the phone.

What I couldn't find in the registry must be either hard-coded in the programs (I'm thinking about messaging, for instance), or placed in proprietary configuration files (I think you should begin by typing about:config in Opera address bar and look for settings you could possibly change).

Anyway, I'm working on a CAB that moves as much documents folders to the SD card as possible, and it could be a good idea to do so with caches folders as well, at least those that won't endanger the system. :)

I personally favor solutions over problems ! ;)

Hi,

You cant close the music service if you have sense started... it will have sense stop or crash...

So no album cach on the SDcard.

But a better solution is to have all you music in sd with the album info and image build in the mp3 file.

You do this once and its there (in the mp3 file) for you all the time for all devices..

Songbird application can do this nice and simple .. You can embed all the tags album images lyrics in the mp3 file..

If you do this the sense music tab will work fine all the times....

HI CAN I JUST SAY IM NOT YELLING I JUST WANT TO BE NOTICED!

Couple of things are wrong with the Titanium build. Have the latest April build but have noticed it in all the titanium builds so far: The Bookmark 'Star' button in Opera 9.7 doesnt function - even if I install a working build over the top. 'Phone Identity' in Device Information isnt functioning. I know its a sense thing but have seen it working in the titanium build by Omega. Can these be fixed? Cheers

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jfrm:
Not necesary to eject. If you connect to a computer and select sd mode, instead activesync, storage card will dissapear from system and problems will arrise.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] stevedebi:
I do this pretty regularly, to sync my music. As long as I use the Windows function to dismount the drive, I have no problems with it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] BerMM:
So do I, but I didn't know WinMo had a dismount function. Where is it found?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] stevedebi:
Not WM, Windows on the desktop. "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media" is what it is called on Windows 7. If you read any kind of removable drive, you need to dismount it to be sure that all read/write functions are completed.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
Yep, but he was explaining that the phone's system then doesn't see the SD card anymore while le PC uses it in USB drive mode : the effects are the same as if the card was removed.

So if caches were moved there, you could have serious problems... :D

Brilliant idea ! It's a lot of work, though... :D

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mister B:
Question for Mr NRG.

What radio version are you currently using ?

I want to test a few radios & as I'm using your ROM, your choice of radio will be interesting & hopefully shorten my list of versions to test !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cajunflavoredbob:
It would actually be better to test a bunch of them out for a couple of days each. Radios vary in performance based on location and network. What works for me probably won't work the same for the guy in the next city over. Radios are easy to flash anyway. I actually need to spend a couple of days playing around with this myself. I've just been too lazy. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] stevedebi:
I seem to recall that he is using .12, but you should really install several radios and see which one works best for your area, as CFB suggested.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mister B:
Well I will test a bunch of them (as stated in subject first post) but I find it more rewarding to use technically skilled members radio preferences in testing as these peoples reports are far more accurate.

Sure Radio quality & battery life will be linked to my specific network conditions within limits but basic points on BT/Wifi/GPS/Call volume can be pretty much the same & can help in choosing the selection of radios to test.

Personally I test a radio for about 4 weeks, 2 days is just not long enough to test all real world scenarios or get realistic battery life statistics in close comparison Radio cases.

I want to limit my selection or I'll be testing radios the whole lifespan of my device! lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] stevedebi:
On my original HD2 (just traded it) I used .12, I actually upgraded the radio. My new one came with .14, which I have been using for a month and not really noticed any difference. I'll probably stay with that one unless I have some kind of issues.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mister B:
Thanks, .12 .14 .15 & the old .07 are on my list. Will be interesting as my testing will include use on about 8 different networks & 4 countries which is normal use for my mobile.

From my previous radio testing on touch pro & diamond 2 I found good radios give pretty much the same results on all networks I used.

A mobile is mobile thus the radio needs to be well balanced for varying networks & signal conditions.

A radio that is amazing in one city location is useless, got a landline for that! lol

hi guys,

i am a new t mobile hd 2 user. the stock rom that came with the phone was buggy as usual and had to do multiple resetting per day (by removing the battery) as it frequently got stuck. as suggested by some helpful guys here at xda i installed this rom. and got to stay that i really love it.

but the problem is still present. phone gets stuck 1 to 3 times per day and have to remove the battery to get back.

somebody pls give me a solution to this. thanks.

manila : 2.5.20212114.0

rom : 29.mar.2011 wwe

radio : 2.15.50.14

would there be any use if i flash one of the other energy roms? do i have to change the radio?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
Yes, change it anyway, as this radio ROM is terrible (switch to 2.10.50.19_2 or 2.12.50.02_2), but it can't cause the problems you described.

You didn't stated if you're using a CHT 2.0 version, so I'm waiting for more precisions about the ROM you're using, please. "29.mar.2011 wwe" doesn't mean anything. No Energy ROM was named just like that.

Well, most of my MP3 are collected here and there on the net... It was actually mostly to try out.

If I'm really to put seriously music on my phone, then I'll probably rip my original CDs (yes, I've got hundreds of them - I should have more than 1000, now), 192 kb/s minimum... But most CDs don't have any tags, so I'll have to add them manually.

I downloaded Free Audio CD to MP3 Converter to try...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mister B:
Sorry to here your problems are still occurring.

Have you installed other applications to the ROM or is this happening on a clean untouched ROM ?

If you have installed apps it will be worthwhile to hard reset & test the devices function with ROM untouched, if untouched ROM still has issues change radio to 2.12.50.02_2

Also check what HSPL version you are using, 2.08 is best option.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mister B:
What hard SPL version are you using ?

Are you still on the same radio version ? 2.12.50.02_2 is a good radio to flash & test if problems persist.

Second hand function is on in my sense settings without issues.

Do you have other apps installed ! if so what ?

I like Dinik ROMs, icons are nice & the whole ROM is themed in depth, also very easy to make icons for installed apps making the ROM visually very elegant & wipes the grin off a few peoples faces after laughing at you being a WM user.

The older 23699 Build of Dinik is my favourite as works better with language apps I use & stability is superb for me. In 3 months have not needed soft reset & sense is behaving well. 290xx builds crash my language software & sense freezed too often for my liking.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] stevedebi:
Wow, I haven't heard of the "second hand clock" problem for a long time. NRG stated a long time ago that this causes stability problems. I think the second hand is disabled by default.

As to which version is good for you - try them all! It is really a personal choice.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Z80-Man:
OK, I'm not really sure, but I think CHT Lock is on by default, though it may launch a non-CHT lockscreen.

Please press on the "Menu" button on your Home tab, then choose "Co0kie's Home Tab Editor", then press the Lockscreen Setup choice.

You may then actually have "CHT Lockscreen" set (slider to the right) and "Windows style lockscreen" checked lower on the page.

So you can see and use a classical lockscreen, but it's actually directed by CHT... And it regularly crashed my phones, exactly the same way it does with you. Either style I would use : CHT style (for which I made a complete setup, but had to drop it because of the freezes), Windows style, HD Mini style.

The solution is to completely disable the CHT locking options, by turning the slider on the top of the page completely off.

You settings screen should then show like this :

Yes, it is, but I turned it on. Does it really cause any problem ? I never had any with that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jfrm:
I have been using ChT lookscreen nearly 4 months and despite a small glich with keyboard icon appearing from time to time, it is perfectly useable. Plus for me is that it's the only one that allow bluetooth and earphones music control while loocked and also that is extremly configurable.

It is not perfect, but I really don't see it as mother of all the problems
