No, there's no fix for the lag.

There's a fix for the sending issue, but its a 50/50 that it works according to all the ppl who posted in those threads.

Meanwhile, when you are going to reply on an SMS, press the "Send"-button when the SMS-list is being populated and then "Cancel" and voila - its done.
[HD2 General] Martyn Day:
I've not seen a fix, i've seen an offical hotfix but this doesnt fix this issue..
[HD2 General] richiexu:
wow that really makes a difference~thx man~~well hopefully HTC can fix this lag~~
[HD2 General] cow138:
Yup.. I agree. its slow in this sense.. ut I usually do a backup using the windows myphone app and just delete the messages. in this way, the messages is not lost.

You can try it too.

Hi

I'm having problems with the HTC messaging system, messages get stuck in the outbox. I'm aware of the many posts about this issue.

If you go to HKEY_Loccal_machine\software\HTC\HTCmessaging\Settings i've found a couple of lines (or what they call it) that looks interesting.

i.e:

EnableHtcRichEdit I don't know what this does, but it looks interesting :)

SendRetryIntervalTemp This for sure, might have something to do with why sms messages sometimes get stuck in the outbox for several hours, and then get sent?

I really don't know much about registry editing, but maybe editing something here would solve something? :)

Since upgrading my TD2 to the official WM6.5 ROM issued by HTC I have had problems with the handset freezing; the only remedy has been to remove the battery and switch back on. At first I thought it was a hardware fault but a friend's phone has also started doing the same since he upgraded. This never happened previously and only happens every ten days or so.

Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

:confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] mobobat:
I'm having the same problems mate. My TD2 on 6.5 freezes spoaradically - I'd say at least twice a week, and the only solution is to remove the battery.

I've been trying to link the freeze with a particular program or app but the phone has frozen at varying times and in many cases whilst no apps are running!

I'm waiting for upgrade on my contract as I've had it with this TD2 and especially WinMo. I mean, how can WinMo store all saved words in SMS on RAM only for it to be wiped after every restart/soft reset?! Why? Argh!

I'm going for the Hero next, and see how nice Android plays! :)

Good luck with your query...

Does it do this without the mem card installed?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] mmatjaz1:
Exactly the same is happening here and the same on my friend's TD2. We have never tried WM 6.1, the first step after purchasing the phone was to upgrade to stock WM 6.5 ROM.

I tried to disable the weather animation on home screen but this doesn't help. My friend has disabled HTC sense and his phone has not frozen after one week. We will have to wait another week or two to proof that this could be the solution.

I hope that Touch Flo is not the cause of this malfunction because WM6.5 UI is very ugly.

I don’t know if the mem card could cause this issue but using the phone without mem card is simply not an option for me. The phone memory is too limited.

My friend also raises this issue on HTC support but so far HTC is ignoring the problem. The only bright word from HTC support was that they will investigate this issue (after many words on how to flash, reflash and hard reset ...).

I really hope that the solution for this very inconvenience will be find out soon.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Mortennp:
My TD2 also freezes often compared to Win 6.1 where it almost never froze. I also hope that HTC will make some kind of service pack for Win 6.5 as it doesn't work that well at the moment.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] miker1892:
Not tried it without the memory card, but I need the card for storage. Never froze prior to 6.5 upgrade.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] pa49:
I'm not suggesting that anyone uses the device without a mem card! You are missing my point.

Phones that freeze do so for a reason and it's necessary to eliminate possible causes.

Some two years ago I did extensive testing on this subject when the same issues arose around another make and model of phone.

One thing I found is that it is possible to induce instability of handsets when mem cards are used (abused?) in certain ways.

My TD2 used to freeze when I first got it and it has also done so with a number of cooked ROMs. With my current ROM it never freezes and there are no instability issues.

I strongly suspect poor coding of apps and lack of thorough beta testing. Isn't it strange how some apps have been around for years and you can rely on their worth?

Installing to mem card causes issues as well as cards that have installed apps being reused after cooked ROM flashing and previous settings and fat tables being left on the card.

Also when power is low mem cards draw large currents that the battery may not be able to give. They are very power hungry. I took this up with Sandisk Tech Dept and they politely told me that the info on current draw under stress (usage) was not for public access!

So my answer is keep your ROM light (no manila or after market 'front end'), minimise card usage by installing all you can to phone mem, reformat afresh with every ROM flash and keep your battery as highly charged as possible at all times.

Some say 'yes but I do all those things and I never get freezes'. That's fine but no help to those that do.

There really is only one way to find out and that is to take a little time and try it for yourself.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] whois101:
Large address book combined with bad 3rd party program

On my Tilt2 I found that applications like Fring could freeze the phone. After a few tries, I decided not intall that anymore (and Fring might have fixed it by now, but I can't afford to try, because uninstalling required a hard reset).

The phone originally came with HTC TouchFLO, but I switched that off, since it just made everything more difficult to reach. And sometimes the fhone became unresponsive, slow or totally frooze. After I disabled it by using the Windows Today (6.5 or classic) after which I only had about 2 freezes in 1.5 year.

Now I finally upgraded to the latest official ROM for the phone, which has HTC Sense on it. After everybody saying how great Sense was, I gave it a try. It worked reasonably, until I started playing with the Favorites in the Peoples tab. After each new addition (I tried 3) I had to restart the phone, and after restart it still hung up.

I happen to have a quite large address book that I synchronize with ActiveSync. I think I'm starting to see a pattern, where several applications - Fring, Sense, etc - just cannot handle large address books.

By the way, to disable Sense, first switch to the Windows Default (= WinMo 6.5) Today screen, and do a soft reset to get rid of Sense background processes. If you want to use the WinMo classic Today screen, then you can do that after the reset. Directly trying to move from Sense to WinMo classic resulted in another freeze. After disabling Sense, I haven't experienced a freeze, (yet !!!).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] NoRmAlY_CrAzY:
^^Try a custom rom,Sense works fine on those as the ROM is highly modified with few errors now.
[Touch HD General] pavankishorereddy:
Hi i have brought a seconds HTC HD today and updated a telstra rom from HTC website. But im not using Telstra Service, Using 3 Australia. I don't need all Telstra tabs. I have tried 3 roms from XDA but none of them worked when i clicked on update rom. Do i need any special thing to install and erase alla my telstra settings as well. i want Windows mobile 6.5 rather than 6.1, because even the touch screen has some problems at the corners installing new Rom can make any difference?

Please give me any one of the Rom and how to install in my mobile. Im new to HTC so don't know which is better or not just one rom and how to install gives me an idea. Thanks in Advance.

My desktop PC is configured with data files in a shared folder on the D: partition. If I try to access these with my mobile I can only see shared folders on C: and not D:. Is there any way to access these other partitions.

For info, my desktop is running XP Home. My mobile is a TouchPro2 although I have had the same problem with an old PDA. There isno problem sharing these folders to another desktop or laptop PC - it's only Windows Mobile that has the problem.
[Networking] Rudegar:
sounds like a windows problem and not a wm problem

as shared drives are flat and transparent as to their location for

all who access them

you can do some testing by connecting with another computer rather then the wm device

ADD ONS & UC CONFIGUTATION

Cosmik Debris uses the UC (User Customization) method. You can find more info about this in THIS thread.

It's very easy to install programs during the FIRST boot of the ROM.

You can add or remove stuff that you don't need, and uninstall the applications if you decide not to use them anymore.

If you do have problems removing a file please use a program like SKTools to remove it. At this time only Connection Setup seems to have this problem.

See the first post for the UC Files link!

What does the UC ZIP contain?

- HTC Calculator - (folder: Office)

- HTC Connection Setup - (folder: System\Settings)

- HTC FM Radio - (folder: Multimedia)

- HTC MP3 Trimmer - (folder: Multimedia)

- HTC RSSHub - (folder: Connection)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Cosmik Debris FAQ Section

1. Can I configure the Action Screen under the left soft key?

The current Cosmik Debris ROM contains a small setting script that allows you to change some Action Screen settings. You can find it under: Start\Programs\System\Settings\ -> Cosmik Debris Settings

I will post an example of how to change the new calendar function to create a new appointment using Pocket Informant.

Change the following registry keys:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\APP_3]
"Path"="\Program files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe"
"Param"="calendar -new"

2. Can I use this ROM on my CDMA device?

No, this is a GSM only version.

3. Show us the power of Mortscript!

I will provide a small example of how you can use Mortscript. For more Mortscript info you have to do a search. There are plenty of examples floating around.

Just create a blank text file with Notepad. Call it: CosmikDebris.mscr (for example).

Paste the following code into the text file. This piece of code expects Google Maps and Sashimi to be installed. Just modify it for personal use.

Piece of my Mortscript clean-up script:

if (FileExists( "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Google Maps.lnk" ))
Move ("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Google Maps.lnk","\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\GPS", TRUE)
Else
EndIf

if (FileExists( "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SASHIMI\SASHIMI.lnk" ))
MkDir ("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\System\Unused\Sashimi" )
XCopy ("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SASHIMI\*.*","\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\System\Unused\Sashimi", TRUE, TRUE)
DelTree ("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SASHIMI" )
Else
EndIf

Now copy the file to your device and use Total Commander to execute the file.

You can do this for all programs you install on your device and run the script only once! It will clean up your Start Menu for you.

4. I can't remove the files that are installed during the UC installation!

I've checked all files and only Connection Setup seems to have some problems. Use a program like SKTools to remove it.

Note: Soft reset before you remove any program.

5. Space for another question.

This contained info about a program that is no longer available in my ROM.

6. More to be added during the feedback of users...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
I decided to share my Cosmik Debris Kitchen with you people!

The Kitchen is based on the Kitchen presented by Joshkoss. You can find this thread HERE.

Now since I might jump ship to the Android platform I can give no further support on the Kitchen.

But a lot of info is already on XDA so you should be fine.

My Kitchen is by no means a replacement for the other projects you’ll find on XDA. It’s stripped down, tweaked and optimized to MY personal preferences.

Below you will find the usual Cosmik Debris way to download the Kitchen.

Have fun with it and it’s been fun!

Thanks,
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
You're welcome. Looking forward to your feedback.

It does support kinetic scrolling when you use File Explorer or a program like TotalCommander. HTC Menu's has been removed so most menu's just fit on your screen. It does not support kinetic scrolling in the menus like in WM6.5.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] halorin:

What is the HTCLog folder?

Hi, I installled the r3 rom for 1 day and am quite happy with it. I have noticed that there is a HTCLog folder growing to 16.5mb size. What is this folder and can I delete it? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Nice find! ;)

It seems that some debugging by HTC is being done even though these settings are actually default compared to official ROM's.

Doing some testing on the 3.1b to see if I can get rid of it since we don't need this at all.

For now I would say it's save to delete this folder.

Will get back on this one after some testing!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stanip:
There is a 2.9m file (Dbg ToStorageLog1.txt) that user is not allowed to delete. And the file size keeps growing...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Problem seems to be caused by the nk.exe

Currently flashing my device and I think I fixed it... If so I'll upload 3.1 ASAP!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Changes from r3.0 -> r3.1
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
3.1 is up and ready for download!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stanip:
Thanks for a quick response. Now downloading r3.1.

By the way, just curious. I noticed that other than the HTC log, two other files seem to consume a fair bit of ram while running: (i) provision.zip 2.7m and (ii) ppc_adobereader 2+m. Wonder if these could be removed in the future and allow users to install them as needed.

Thanks again for an excellent rom. Very lean, stable and speedy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Those files are actually not in the ROM but installed by using UC or manually installation.

provision.zip -> This file belongs to Connection Setup

ppc_adobereader -> This belongs to the Office CAB

I'm aware that the Connection Setup can't be properly uninstalled. But you can use a trial of SKTools (you should buy it! :D) and use their uninstall option.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stanip:
Hi McCune, not sure if my observation is correct... the ram usage seems to be going up with the new rom during the day which was never an issue with the previous roms. Last night mine was about 40mb in use and after 1 day, it went up to 78mb tonight. It feels like a ram leakage but not confirmed. I will observe it for one more day without a reset...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] legend921:
I had noticed a problem too. The alarm in the phone does not work and the phone keypad option that you use for texting does not put any letters into the messaging box only the symbols work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Can you see what program is eating the memory? You can check this with the Task Manager inside the System Folder.

I still have 31% free RAM, even after two days of use.

The programs I'm running are:

- SBSH PocketBreeze

- MagiCall

- SPB Time

- Scheduled Backup

- PocketController

- Messaging app

I've tried every possible setting using Phone Keypad and I don't have any problem at all. I don't have any third party SIP installed. Do you?

Edit: Can anyone confirm that the alarm is not working? I have no problem what so ever on my side... Note that 'repeat' is not selected when selecting a sound file.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DJChriZZ:
Hi mccune,

I use the r.2 since release ... works damn nice and fast.

I got a solution for the problem with the wi-fi login:

(the device promted me on every login at home for the password)

now I use only the comm-manager to switch wi-fi on and of and the tp2 connects without problems to all known wlans :-)

before I used the wi-fi button from action screen and homescreen ++, that dosn't work with a reconnect on my wi-fi at home.

another question: I want to use widgets ... myspace. I need a widget engine to install the myspace-widget. I tryed "add_widget_engine_v2.cab" and "enable_widgets_wm65.cab" but I can't install the myspace widget :-/ theres an error with a database.

greets Chrizz
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
I use the WiFi button from the ActionScreen more than I use the CommManager and have no problem connecting to my (WEP Protected) WiFi Network.

Concerning the Widgets. If you mean the Widgets according to THIS thread. Then I would think that it's for WM6.5 only. I might be wrong on this one!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stanip:
Hi McCune, the programs I ran were: PocketBreeze, Messaging app and Activesync. Ram usage was close to 60mb. Yesterday, I deleted the bt-intray in Start folder and also installed the Dynamic Resource Proxy cab and it seems to stablize today... By the way, I deleted the Action List folder as I use Newmenu (smaller footprint). Don't think this matters to the ram usage but comparing to how I used the earlier rom, that's the only difference I can think of.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DJChriZZ:
how can I get widgets working on your rom r2?

I will try a little more.

With RAM I've no problem, always enough free.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wallot:
