Ok, so it's been a while since i posted anything on this forum (i usually post about bugs or help people with their problems with their Touch PRO), and it's been several months since i last updated my Touch PRO.

And now, i kinda forgot about everything there is to know about updating, such as the radio etc, and i'm totally out of date with the latest builds.

So anyway i'm using a Touch PRO and wanna do an update coz for some reason, my battery is draining like crazy these days, it was all good before but now it's draining like hardcore. I only remember i'm using one of the stable Manilla 2.1 rom build, can't remember which one though.

Anyway i need some advice, coz Energy's topic is just flooded with replies minutes after another, it's hard to keep track and get your questions noticed so that's y i posted this new topic, sorry if it's not allowed or anything. His topic is here btw:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=536751

So what I wanna know is, is the latest build (December 17th, 2009) any good? I assume the build is 28014 right? I heard a lot of people have problems with it, is that true? If it really is a buggy build, what build would you recommend, the 21855 one??

And i'm thinking of updating the radio, is (1.17.25.09 - Official Hotfix from HTC (South Africa) - 11-06-09) any good? I live in New Zealand so dun think that will work well, anyone who lives in NZ wanna give some opinions?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Broman400:
I'd recommend you get the: EnergyROM_21885_RAPHAEL_24.Dec.2009_Standard.rar

It's like the regular WM 6.5 UI and its stable and has the new Sense 2.1 interface (Weather Clock on Homescreen) Thats your best choice, and also the NRGZ28 Raphael ROM's come with the 1.14.25.35 radio with same rilphone. You should try that ROM and see if the battery drains, if it does then upgrade your ROM.

Just my opinion ;]
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] chaoscreater:
thanks for your reply ^^

ya i'm using that radio already. Ok i'll give the 21885 build a go, it seems to be the most stable so far. Thanks again!

oh btw does anyone know why NRGZ28 stopped uploading to other file services like Mediafire or Rapidshare? Hotfile really sucks for me.
[Palm Treo 750] bobcdy:
Found a torrent for the AT&T/Cingular win mobile v. 6.0; this is called a leaked rom on the site. I just bought a treo 750 on ebay and haven't received it yet but I wondered if the win mobile v. 6 for AT&T will work on any unlocked Treo 750?

If so, is it best to use this version for an update of the os, or to use one of the more recent ones on this site - perhaps v. 6.1 or 6.5? Being a complete newby for a windows mobile smartphone, I really am not sure about how to upgrade the os.

Hey everyone

It's my first time to use cellphone with WIFI.

It seems not really stable. The networks is fine working on my computer with full signal. But in my phone the network constantly loss connection.

It that normal? How can I make it more stable.

I'm using WM6.5 build21876 rom with 1.13.25.24 radio.

Thanks`.XD.

By the way, anyone has some suggestion for the Radio version?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] band27:
My suggestion would be to try another Radio that can be retrieved from the ...This Thread.

Before: Make sure you have Hard SPL 1.93 which can be found in my signature.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] adamwhat:
Thanks. I thought that the newest radio would be the best. It seems that i need to find a new one.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] band27:
The newest is not always the best. Try a couple regardless of date release. Another variable when selecting a radio is where you live in the world. So it depends and thus, try a couple but make sure that you are keeping other things constant when testing....

Good Luck!

[HD2 General] pkchips:
Hello guys,

I've gotten my hands on an SWF version of this game I quite like and was wondering if there were any solutions for how I can play this game on my HD2?

The game is here: http://www.adamatomic.com/canabalt/
[HD2 General] lude219:
try it with IE or better yet, use skyfire web browser.
[HD2 General] pkchips:
Thanks for the advice :-)

I'm worried that might not work because the game requires you to press "x" to jump.

It's probably possible to remap a key, but I was wondering if there was any standalone SWF player for the HD2?

[HD2 General] KowboyBebop:
Hi, I tried Flash Light Player to run version of canabalt (*.swf file that is controled with mouse). It said:

There is an error in the flash content, the flash content will close. Gonna test more games. How is it going for others?
[HD2 General] Recoda:
Would be great with a fullscreen flash player that allows you to have onscreen controls and customize them for controls on the keyboard/mouse. Would LOVE that!
[HD2 General] uli68:
so, is there any solution to get Canabalt running on Windows Mobile devices? or do i have to swap my HD2 against an iPhone? ;-)
[HD2 General] Jim Coleman:
iPhones don't support flash AT ALL, nor will they ever, due to Apple's policy of not allowing third party programming environments on their (not your) phone.

[HD2 General] Samfau2:
i agree, it would be a very nice game to play on the hd2, simple control but fun. I've also been thinking about playing swf's, it would certainly make up for the somewhat lacking library of free games for win mobile.
[HD2 General] PoisonTaffy:
Canabalt won't run as is on your HD2 for two reasons - the controls are strictly keyboard, and touching the screen translates to mouse clicks on flash at the moment (that means you won't be able to control the character).

The second reason is that if there isn't a full standalone flash player (and not just lite), you won't be able to even run the SWF since flash lite only support as2 and Canabalt is as3.

If you hack your own version of canabalt with mouse controls, running it from Skyfire will probably be problematic since I've noticed there's a significant delay between touch and flash receiving the touch. In a game like canabalt that won't be tolerable.
[HD2 General] pkchips:
Hi,

Some versions of canabalt work on mouse clicks instead of button presses. I think the one I have here might be the mouse click version, I'm not sure.

I tried playing it on skyfire, but as you say, there is a lag between clicking and jumping. Also, the frame rate is awful.
[HD2 General] zdrux:
Here is the click-only version. I don't know how it runs on the HD2 because I don't have mine yet, but here it is.

It doesn't work mate. Not in Opera 10, not in IE, and not using Flash List as a local SWF player.

Hmm that's too bad.. Well, I tried - sorry guys.

p.s. It works firefox if you feel like playing on your PC lol.
[HD2 General] Archer:
It's works in any browser on the PC. You can even download the SWF and play it locally (if you have FlashPlayer installed).

[Hero CDMA General] grifforama:
Does anyone else have an issue with HTC sense rebooting every so often ? Mine does approximately 1/2 times a day.

It's pretty random.

Are there logs anywhere that I can check to see what may be causing it ?
[Hero CDMA General] flipzmode:
Are you getting a force close and then reboot, or is sense ui just flat out going back to the HTC screen and then reloading itself? If it's the first then you have some type of file corruption going on.

If it's the second it's possible that you have so many things running and loaded that Android is killing off sense in order to make room for other things. This was a real common issue when touchflo (basically senseui for winmo) got ported to older winmo phones.

Or the other possibility is you are running some type of task killer that is killing off required sense services and it's forcing it to reload.

http://geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/
[Hero CDMA General] lv2bll:
do you have any taskkiller or auto kill enabled? i had problems when i did
[Hero CDMA General] grifforama:
I have to hold my hands up and say I'm using Advanced Task Killer. I guess I'm under the misguided illusion that the snappiness comes from using that.

I'm guessing it's killing some service that HTC Sense relies on, so I'll try and turn it off for a while and see what happens.
[Hero CDMA General] lv2bll:
on my taskiller i wasnt even killing sense, i was killing mail (then sense reboots)
[Hero CDMA General] Greefus:
I've been getting random phone restarts too in the last week. I do have Advanced Task Manager and TasKiller, but I never had this problem until recently. I usually only kill stuff I would have manually opened. I think I hear an alert on my phone and it's just restarting.

[Hero CDMA General] mjb427:
Swype?

Seems like it might be swype. Anyone?
[Hero CDMA General] DrJ76:
another one here that has the same problem since the beginning. The problem basically is that HOS only has about 200 MB of free RAM after booting, and this is too few. Then, when you open some big apps or games, the system closes sense to make space for tha app, then when you return to the home screen, sense reloads itself..... It is normal, it is not a malfunction, but I guess they should solve it, it is quite anoying to be waiting several seconds for the sense to reload until you can go on using the phone, at least it is anoying in this so high class phone....

I think there is some tweak or mod over there that modifies the behavior of android so it won´t close sense and it won´t reload anymore, but you have to be root to do it.

Best regards.
[Hero CDMA General] flexgrip:
Hello,

I got my hero about 3 weeks ago. I was content with not rooting it and just using what it came with; However, once I saw how slow the keyboard rotation was, I have since been on a quest... trying all the different roms to see if the keyboard would rotate faster.

Just so we are clear, Im talking about the on-screen keyboard on my Sprint Hero (with Google). When I rotate the phone from portrait to landscape, the screen goes dim and then pauses for a few seconds before it rotates. I am kind of interested in the processes that happen when it rotates and I was thinking it just took that long before the accel-meter noticed that the phone had rotated and then once it figured it out, another second or two to redraw everthing.

But then when using the fresh 1.0 rom I noticed that extra animation setting where it zooms the screen out and then it rotates and swings back and forth for a while. When I turn the phone sideways it INSTANTLY zooms out and swings... no-delay. But that whole animation takes a few seconds and actually seems like it takes longer before the keyboard is usable again.

Anyway, I know this is getting long so I will just get to it. Do you guys know of any rom, or setting, or modification to this phone that will stop it from dimming the screen and taking so long before it rotates. My bosses iphone is near instant in it's rotation habits, and that is what I am after. I mean, yea, I love that locale does a lot of extra stuff for me, sipdroid lets me make calls over wifi, and I can use this phone as a remote for XBMC. But if it cannot do these basic things quickly, like rotating the keyboard, then I am going to consider spending my free time modifying my own rom. I am chest deep writing my first two apps for android and was hoping not to have to spend much time on such a trivial thing.

Is it sense? Is it the screen dimming animation? Any directions you can give me that will point me in the direction of giving this phone a stern kick in the butt would be appreciated. As I said, I am not afraid to dive into making my own custom rom, just down want to start that trip if I don't have to.

Thanks for any help you can give me guys.
[Hero CDMA General] flipzmode:
/system/framework/framework-res.apk > res > anim houses all of the phones animations.

Ones of particular interest to you would likely be fade_in, fade_out, accelerate_interpolator, decelerate_interpolator.

The down side? These are not human readable xml files, they are in binary. I can tell you that what you would look at changing would be

android:duration="@android:010E0002"

What I can't tell you is how to change it, because honestly I don't know. You can use axmlprinter2 (google it) to read it, but you can't convert it back to binary.
[Hero CDMA General] flexgrip:
Thanks, I am checking that out now. I was able to look into all these cookie-cutter animations and see that they all seem pretty sluggish. Hopefully the api is documented/open enough to look into the process and see where all the time is spent. It is just mind-boggling that no one from HTC looked at this and tried to compare the user experience with other phones. I played with the droid a little and the keyboard is instant on it too. I doubt it is just a limit of the hero hardware.

It seems like the stock rotation setting makes the backlight dim and not fade-in or out in terms of animation. Any clue why? It doesn't seem like I can turn it off.

I ran that emulator version for the android SDK that lets you see how your app works when you rotate the screen. Unfortunately it doesn't follow the same routine that the actual phone uses when rotating and is merely for visuals.

[Touch HD General] ClydeB1:
I believe the latest miri and possibly NRG also have it. Any rom using the Leo 2.01 packages should have it cooked in. There are some problems as the soft keys appear not to work, but if you click on the document in the manila view it does open.

Hello,

I am buying a 16 GB Class 6 Micro SD soon, and i was wondering if there is anything I should do to it before putting it into my phone. Should I be worried, since the new SD card isn't partitioned, about accidentally bricking my phone? If so, what should I do to it before putting it inside of my phone?

Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
1. you will loose all applications, they are stored on the sd card, so duh!. (lots of force closes)

2. you can't brick your phone by replacing an sd card.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QMAN101:
If you want to use or already using apps2sd, you will need to partition the new card to have an EXT partition. This is where the apps will be loaded on the sd card. You can use the latest from Amon Ra (located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=5666691) to partition the new sd card.

After rebooting from the partitioning, you will need to download all of the apps from the market again. Or you can backup using a rooted back up.

If you are not using any apps2sd currently, then you only need to ensure that the new card is formatted to fat32.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tardie:
Thanks, so when I get the sd card I should just put it in, boot into recovery, partition it and then re-download all the apps and I'm done?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robkoehler:
make a backup using what you like best (nandroid, switchrom, etc.) and copy all you fat32 to your computer.

put in new sd card, create desired partitions and mount to your pc so you can copy all your old files over (this will include your backup) then unmount and unplug from pc

restore backup and you will be right back to business as usual for the most part (may lose some passwords and other small things)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] timbermar:
I recently used Jeyo Mobile Companion to move all my text messages (sent and received) older than a certain date to a seperate folder. Now, at random, when I send a text message, that entire thread of messages will delete from my phone. All my other messages from other contacts are not affected, only the thread of text with the contact I texted.

Of course I did all of this before I took a vacation, and am not currently able to undo the move of messages.

I checked the archive folder to see if maybe my missing threads had been moved to there, but they have not, they are just gone. This only occurs when I send a message, it has not happened otherwise. And it is at random, not every thread deletes. Let me know if you need more details. Oh, stock AT&T ROM, WM 6.5. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] timbermar:
Nobody else has experinced this? I'd appreciate any suggestions for restoring the lost texts (if possible) and for preventing it from happening again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
Just an idea. Not sure since I don't use the particular software you mentioned to auto delete messages.

The reason for your problem may stem from having threaded messaging enabled. If you have it enabled, this means that in the default WinMo messaging app, you can't delete particular messages. You have to delete the whole thread. It's all or nothing. (Note, it's possible to delete individual messages via Manila)

Disable threaded messaging with Advanced Config tool and see if your problem disappears.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] timbermar:
I moved the messages back to the correct folders (sent and inbox) and everything seems to have corrected itself.
