Serious issues with 3.7

I flashed to 3.7 this morning but I've had some serious issues. I first did a hard reset of course after the flashing, then went through the installation (phone, wifi, outlook, gmail, facebook, youtube, twitter) and when i hit the HTC welcome screen, I did a soft reset. Next there was this message on my screen (white letters on black background) telling me something was wrong with the software (unlawful installation or something, didn't take a snapshot, sorry) and it had to do a full reset. Before I could do that, all sorts of errors appeared and I had to remove the battery. Did another hard reset, went through all the steps again and it appeared to work this time. Finished the set up of the device, it was responsive, I could read my mail, browse the web, etc... I then proceeded to install CorePlayer which got stuck at 99%... I waited and waited until the phone turned itself off. Turned it back on, still busy installing... I did a soft reset and it took way too long to boot. No error warnings though but now the PIN screen came up but there were other screens also popping up in front of it and it had forgotten all my settings (wifi, mail, facebook) again :eek: :mad:. So this sucks... I'm thinking about using MTTY to properly erase the memory of my phone, see if that works because this is not workable for me. I'm using this phone for business so it needs to be somewhat stable ;).

Judging by the other reactions it could be just me (I'm using the NLD version btw) but I can't see what I'm doing wrong. Any suggestions?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] houms:
even use HSPL, even SSPL

I had some similar issues. I had HSPL installed on my phone. And as the Artemis rom was delivered with the sspl .exe, I was using that to flash.

This is a source of issue.

So you have the choice even:

1- Instal HSPL and then use the customRUU.

2- Use directly the sspl but in this case, you have to let the sspl put the phone in bootloader moder because it's at this moment, it's modifiying the SPL of the phone on the fly and for only this boot.

3- Install HSPL on the phone and put the .nbh on the memory card and put the phone in bootloader mode to install it from the stroage card.

All the three methodes are working well but if you do not do any mixt:

for instance, what I was doing which was bringing me a lot of problem:

Having the HSPL and put the phone in bootloader mode and then use the SSPL fro flashing.

Hope it help.

Can you add application to gsensor whitelist with bsb tweaks?

(I flashed to 3.7 yesterday...)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Roberto Montane:
Thanks your reponse. Glad to hear I'm not the only one who had this problem :p.

On my phone I have HSPL installed (from Bepe) and I'm installing via the storage card already. I've used this method for 3.5 and now 3.7. I'm currently running 3.0 again as this version is stable for me.

I tried installing via the included SSPL once (Artemis v3.5) but this failed so then I started to use the storage card solution. Perhaps my attempt to use SSPL somehow crippled my HSPL? A reinstallation of HSPL might solve this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] eivissa:
Sternas,

I really appreciate your work and the ROMS that result in it. I have been going through almost every version and 3.7 runs smoother than every other ROM I have tested to far. No bugs, no lags...just fine!

The thing I want to address it the 1Ghz and 576RAM discussion. I personally have no idea whether these "tweaks" work or if its just the placebo effect. Nevertheless, it sounds as if enabling these two tweaks aint much work, so...is there a chance that you just cook it into your ROM once? While also offering a non-tweaked version? Make it a beta and give us the chance to compare the two ROMs.

You will prove your point if the tweaked ROM isn't any faster or drains battery as hell! ...if it is, for what reason whatsoever, faster with these tweaks enabled and no obvious drawbacks, then it is your choice what to do with that conclusion.

This is just an idea and I will enjoy your ROMs even if you ignore my suggestion completely.

Cheers,

eivissa

1ghz hack has been proven to be fake... i wouldnt ask about that but 576mb ram i dunno... some ppl say they could fill it up with programs so maybe that one is working who knows :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ghalik:
Sir Sternas, Your attention please . this is an issue encountered in all your

release . When

receiving a call and finished the conversation, the phone WONT

Hang Up.

This is serious, it seems that the Major Problems with your Roms evolves

around the Phone. you should Definitely fix in future Release. The

Primary function is to Send/receive calls ::: Useless if not working.

thanx , (Great Work)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] un4:
i tried this but it doesn't work :(.

any ideas??? thx!!! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ghalik:
Don't have to open Opera or internet. go to home screen rotate to landscape and back to portrait open phone again . try that and hit me back .;)

Touchpal

Hi, I flashed my HD2 with the Artemis ROM and it's really very good. I have only one Problem. I wont to use the Keyboard Touchpal, but to activate it I must go to Settings, Personal, Input but in the Artemis ROM there is no Input where I can change the default Keyboard. How can I activate the Touchpal Keyboard??

The SSPL version you mention is the right one for flash Artemis rom v40.0 Yes.

But first of all Remove HSPL

Secondly install Stock Rom 3.14

Thirdly install Artemis rom v 40.0
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Straynart:
But before flashing the 3.14 ROM, I used a RADIO_2.10.50.28_2, so there already has a .50_ in it. But I don't have 576MB of RAM [neither now with the V41].

I want to make something clear between all of you and me. I don't say that I want a 576MB RAM even I reach to a point that I am RAMless probably because of my latest combinason of the Artemis v41 + CHT 2.0.0 [with a lot of widget] + Dinik. beta, I don't know, I don't really know.

It's possible that battclock indicates me a wrong amount of free RAM [before, Artemis 37 and the older ROMs were giving a good 187MB of free RAM at each reboot and still merely 130MB after 3 days of uptime.

Now, I just have 120 at the boot and under 87MB after 3 days [and the GPS is a RAM eater…it's just an example of soft which is RAM eater].

I just want to understand this point, that merely piss me off, because I can't explain it to myself.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Yes, maybe that would have been easier! But if you would take the time too read all of the posts I've written about this subject, you might probably understand that sometimes there is a limit to one's patience/understanding. Read all the posts that are complaining that they only have left 30 Mb or memory and look also who are always (Kurt, Gianmich, myself and a lot of others) responding in a nice and polite way and maybe you will then understand that it's sometimes enough for each of us, although I cannot speak for the others.

Please ...

I beg you ... When a guy asks a question and a correct answer is given there is no need to add 3 or 4 behind ... Similar responses will soon become unbearable as redundant question!

This is only my opinion but I share it! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] delta-roh:
Sir, I now saw that you edited your post to answer Kuzibri: Before you flash you should read at least the posts of the new version. For this Sir Sternas always places a link to the this first release post in his release notes:

Current Release

-ROM Version: 40.0

-Codename: Sunrise

-Release Date: 23-Okt-2010

-Release Post: #26441
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kurt-willems:
I understand your position/frustration sir.

But like mention before it's a trick (I can almost say Illusion)

How to explain it!? I don't know sir.

Only thing I can say is that personally I have used/try otter custom rom who have the 575MB trick build in, and I wasn't satisfy. Was it related to the trick ore related at the rom I don't know but by heavy consumption my device heated up. But honestly If a rom builder like sir Sternas communicate that it is a trick I believe him. (He is a grate rom builder)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pa3x:
Funny is, that after writing GoldCard info to SD, it was usefull.

Then after removing HSPL, after device reboot, i got message about that i need to format SD. Altough i can flush stock rom trough ActiveSync (with "defected" SD). Neither my PC wouldnt recognise it.

It is no big deal, i had backup, but month ago, so no big harm to me. Only wanted to warn other users to posibility to lose data.

Cheers.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi,

I really am sorry that your device crashed with Artemis V18, but then upgrading, out of understandable anger, to V40, without reading, is, as you have noticed now, a great risk. Please do read page 1, certainly SCV's contribution, very well and flash than again.

Good luck and suc6 with it,

Sir, that's right. But remember that this is a forum with a lot of traffic. Therefore, it happens, that several people write an answer at the same time - that's always the character of an online forum. :D

It have happens again, the time when I was writing this post sir delta-roh was also writing ;)

This can happens on a thread wit lot of helpful /reacting members!! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Dutch-Leo:
I will probably considered as a nagger but i will ask anyway.

Been using V33 for months with great results !

As of yesterday it seems as if the phone is running on 100 mhz and the constant windows (thinking) rotating animation as it seems busy.

In short, the HD2 is MEGA SLOW and i cannot understand how this happened.

I did several Soft resets, removed the battery, simcard and Micro Sd, to no avail.

Making a picture is now a real challenge as it acts like 2002 mobilephone camera (slow, lagging).

Anybody ?

I could ofcourse try a Hard reset but this involves a lot of work to restore my preferences, favorite programs, etc etc. so maybe there is an easier solution ?

Thanks in advance

I think i need some help.

In order to install V40, i used gold card method. But the process stop before the end.

Update failed to the OS level. (Radio V2 OK Rcust OK Bootloader OK Splash1 OK).

Any suggestion?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Straynart:
Hey ! I don't say you're not patient or ununderstanding ! I just said, it would take less time if you only reply a post like "read the first page before asking your redundant question".

That was just an advice not a reproach.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Did you also format your SD card? Sometimes the SD card "eats" a lot of power from your device and you will have to format it to function again as it should be. In order not to loose your valuable information on the SD card, dor the following:

1. remove Card from device

2. Insert card with card reader into your PC

3. copy the contents of your card to a certain (new) folder on your PC

4. Remove the application data folder

5. format your SD card with the format utility of you PC using the slow method and FAT32

6. take your card out of your PC and reinsert into device and format again with the SD formatting tool of the device (windows - tools - Format SD card.

7. reinsert SD card back into PC and restore your data, except the deleted application data folder.

8. reinsert card in device and do a soft reset.

See if that helps. Other options are using apps like Memmaid, Cleanram, etc.

If nothing wotks, the you have to perform indeed a HR.

Good luck and suc6,

What I really wanted to say if that sometimes you have enough off answering these redundant questions, nothing else. So no offense to you, my friend.

regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Straynart:
Erm…so I can reply "just like some says : It's not a trick".

That's an explanation for you ? =\

Sorry for being illiterate, but this explanation still not answering the question.

The fact that you were not satisfy by another ROM which have 576MB RAM or if the other ROM made your cellphone hot is another point.

And by saying Sternas is a great ROM builder is still NOT a explanation.

I do trully believe that Sternas is an awesome ROM cooker, but none on this Earth is perfect. He can also made mistakes [sorry Sternas, I'm not pointing You, but the fanatism for You from the other is a bit…tiresome ^^'].

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jjollyroger:
check Artemis center too, I had the same issues.. solved unchecking the "enable disk cache" option
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
I agree with you on that partially. I'm stil answering seriously to these questions just because I/we know that they do not read the first page. By keeping answering these questions, we (you know who I mean by that) hope that sooner or later they understand these messages and start to read before asking. I also know that it's a tiresome thing to do but, at the moment, nothing else seems to help. Ignoring them is not the way to do it unfortunately. We are constantly looking for a way (we PM al lot about this problem) to stop this, but alas no luck yet.

for my computer is enough for today, I'm going to bed (here is the one in the morning and sleep the whole population) and certainly I will continue my nigthmares of how people do not even read the first post is asking that his memory is so little.

It seems incredible, but some of us have read each and every one of the posts are in this thread, quite a feat for people who can not even read the first post.

By the way, I guess in my nightmares will be no good dreams too, as version 41 and will include waking up to good news with the new version of ROM.

Ooooops, very sorry for that my friend - it will not happen again :o

You´re right, and fortunatedly, the "tone/attitude" has also changed again too. :D

Go ahead Sir Sternas, keep on teasing... By this week I´ll probably be done with my other tests, and so I wont have to wait till v43. Maybe 41 already, or 42 :D

Thanks again Oliver

Indeed you do, and thank you too for all the support ;)

Hi, I feel kind of like you. I also need or want to know. But on the 128 MB difference - maybe we should check the servicing manuals from HTC to find out. I had a very frustrating issue (like many other HTC Shift users) when trying to "unlock" the supposedly 128 MB Ram on the WinMo side (Device should have 64 / 128 MB), so know I´m in the process of asking HTC to actually demonstarte and show that this MBs are there and avaiñlable, OR to withdraw their claim on the product description worldwide :mad:

Regarding you running out of Memory, have you tryied to add up all what you have installed on a 576 compared to the same install on a "standard EU HD2". It´s simple math - maybe the result surprises you :eek:

On the Widgets and customizations - check them thourouhly because some of them are very splendid with available Memory. I once had my wife´s phone fully customized with "Dinik & Co" and had only 50 MB left. I myself use CHT/CHTE/CHTS, and a few more (Resco, SPB, CoPilot, Weatherpannel, ForeLayer, GPS tracker, etc..), but I´m staying away of everything that duplicates and triplicates already available files just for the looks, on cost of performance, speed and stability :cool:

try deleting your "application data" folder from sd card, if this works delete it regularly

EDIT: I lately red you are on v40 with spl ,did you check if hspl has been completely removed?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KyroSan:
Sir Kuzibri, you are a great help to the newbies that come with all those questions again and again. You are a saint, Sir. :)

By the way, my HD2 has only 512 MB of ROM and 448 MB of RAM. And I am happy with that.

My iGo8 runs from SD card. No problems with that. Still about between 150 and 180 MB free in RAM after all my programs and customizations.

And I am a very lucky user. Never had a problem with Artemis ROMs.

When I read about all those problems reported here every day, I feel like I am from another planet... where everything is perfect. :D

Three "items" are needed for a good performance of our beloved HD2: The hardware, the software and a human operator.

If something goes wrong, has to be because of one of these 3 "items".

Now, the hardware (unless defective) is a great piece of machinery.

The software (Artemis ROM) is the best I know.

But the "human interface"... Well, not everyone can be a geek in electronics, but everyone should be wise enough to take good care of such a piece of art that our HD2 is...

As someone said: "If nothing else works, please read the manual". Or the instructions at the first page. :rolleyes:

A simple SSPL is for sure the easiest way. But applying a Goldcard is definitely not more difficult then 1. install HSPL 2. Task 29 and then 3. CustomRUU Artemis.

To make it even simpler, I set up this thread:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=825397 It also includes the work of oliverweidel.

BTW, using the Goldcard before each SSPL Flash is the perfect replacement for Task 29 as it erases every part of the ROM.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wfvn:
Hello sir Sternas and other users,

About the 576 MB RAM 'trick'. I don't know if it's a trick or not. Whats the case:

I own a HD2 which had a ducht Stock ROM installed. Right now I run Artemis 40 Dutch (for which many thanks again to sir Sternas)

2 of my collegues also have a HD2 but a international English verstion (not T-Mous as far as I know; the dimentions of their and my HD2 are exactly the same where the T-Mous is a little higher as far as I know)

Since they don't like the english OS, I installed Artemis 17 Dutch a while ago.

Last weekend was a change in daylight savings time (or what do you call it in English). I already had Artemis 40 Dutch installed on my HD2 and had no problems with the time change. My 2 collegues did (and still do) have issues. The time synchronisation doesn't work as it should. So after trying many settings I offered to install Artemis 40 dutch (since older stock ROMS did have a problem with daylight savings so it might be in the older Artemis 17 ROM which is based on older stock roms which might have the problem)

Unfortunately the time issue isn't solved with Artemis 40 Dutch. So I compared (my HD2 compared to there HD2s) all settings I could think of and stumbled upon the hardware information. My HD2 says 448 MB RAM, their HD2s say 572 MB RAM. Same Artemis 40 Dutch ROM, same flash procedure as described in the post mentioned in the startpost so there seems to be a difference in our devices I think.

One more thing is de location. I manually deleted all cities (like Paris, Tokyo aso). I only have 'my location' left, which has my home town installed into it (as can be seen in the weather tab). I can't get it right in the HD2's of my collegues. In their device 'my location' just won't get the home town installed.

(the last problem might be a provider problem? They have Vodafone, I have Telfort)

[edit]

Slight change in my story about the 576 MB.

I just checked the devices of my collegues to be sure Artemis 40 is installed correctly (I had 3 HD2s in front of me when flashing their devices so I could have installed Artemis 40 twice on one HD2 instead of both HD2s by accident so to make sure I checked it again) since the official stock ROM seems to have the '576 trick'. The HD2 of one collegue had Artemis 40 Dutch installed but now shows 448 MB RAM. The other HD2 also has Artemis 40 Dutch installed but still shows 576 MB.

Strange things happening to their devices :?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] lpsgizmo:
Great work

Thanks for a perfect ROM :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sb2003:
i'd say that the one with 576MB ram still has HSPL - since with new 3-14 rom and OLD incompatible HSPL , you "get" 576MB ram, but only about20-30megs of free ram..... Check for HSPL... i bet its there :)

v3.14 roms and existing HSPL is NOT compatible - strange memory, hangups.....
