We were on about JoshKoss's ROMs.

I've said this for years, something like bugzilla would be good. Not that I have ever used it but something with a bit of structure you know? Flag bugs by component (ie. Manila footprints tab, lock screen, or whatever) then by ROM so the system will know already if it is ROM specific or not. But it still relies on people adding good data, as the saying goes, "Garbage In Garbage Out". An automated config dump tool would be a good step towards that. (an end-to-end "report bug" app would be awesome) After all I don't know what point release of Manila I'm running (1921? 1922??) because I don't really care unless it breaks, or a newer version has more shiny.

Anyway I said this a while ago and we are still "*****ing" :p about ROMs at a fairly disorganised level, and yet the cooks continue to work their magic, so it can't be all that bad :)

From another guy who comes on here with not very much to offer yet continues to leech a new ROM once a month or so :D

Stop the Madness...

Oh Geez....

Yes, I am one of the lurkers here at XDA, having been flashing my phones for years and not really contributing much to the community.

I have made a New Year's resolution to change that, so I am posting more now.

But look at some of the most popular ROMS....

Within hours of a Chef releasing a new version, there are hundreds of posts about it.

From what I gather, 95% if not more of these guys/gals cook up these ROMs in their spare time. They do it because they like to do it. I don't think anyone here is getting rich cooking up a ROM for my TP2. They all have lives and when there can be 40+ pages of posts within a couple days after they release a new version, I don't expect them to read every single one. Especially where a vast majority are people asking how to flash the ROM, how to change the theme or other posts that a simple search would provide the answer.

Most Chefs do post what was fixed, what was improved and a lot of them post issues in their ROMS.

I have spent hours reading page after page trying to figure out an answer to a issue I have had...knowing I was probably not the only one having it.

Do some Chef's not post as much info as I would like? Yes.

Am I going to berate those Chefs for not doing so? No.

Some of the responsibility has to be on the users. Period.

For example, I was and am a fan of the Energy ROMs. But I SMS an insane amount and the newest Leo interface with the HTC messaging client sucked, period. Not to say NRGZ28's ROMs sucked, quite the contrary, they are great. But did those ROMs fill every need that I specifically had? No.

So, I did some research, and I found in a thread where Agent_47 suggested his ROM because he didn't even cook in the HTC SMS messaging client. So, I looked at his thread, flashed the ROM, and realized that I have had no issues with it and am very happy. Stable, works and I don't have to wait 7 minutes sometimes to send a text to someone!

We are all very lucky to have XDA. We are all very lucky to have the Chefs that spend their own time, and a lot of it, to cook up these excellent ROMs for us to flash.

Instead of complaining about the lack of 'bug lists'...perhaps you could create a tool or set something up to help the Chefs better manage those said lists?

That is the spirit that has and continues to make XDA great, if there is something you want, something that you see lacking, then create a tool to fill that void.

If you don't want to do that, then I suggest getting an iPhone, where you are locked into your OS and a slave to Apple and their constant updates and static interface. Cool device, granted, but I prefer the freedom of flashing, the excitement of trying new interfaces, experimenting with new features and lastly, the great folks here at XDA.

Let's not get silly :D
[Touch HD General] Gussy:
I was recently on one of the old Dutty ROMs (V2.1 XTREME) and decided to upgrade to something newer, so I got the latest "phoenix" EnergyROM (Dec 17th) and flashed that using USPL SD bootloader.

The problem then arose that they phone was always extremely hot, specifically on the back down the bottom just above where the plastic cover for the antenna(s) is.

The battery would not charge to 100% and tBattery showed that it was drawing up to 400mA all the time, this is when plugged in and sitting on 99% charged. On a call (while plugged in) for ~20min the battery will also drop 50%.

I then did the following, which has had no affect;

Hard-reset, flash "leo" EnergyROM, hard-reset, flash Miri 6.5 ROM, hard-Reset, flash to the original Dutty v2.1 (when it was working), hard-reset.

I have tested the phone in-between all these procedures and even tried using a different (aftermarket) battery, all to no avail.

The engineer in me says it's a hardware issue, but I would like to think it's a software issue, something running at 100% consuming too much power.

I'm now looking for any ideas or advice on what could be the cause, since I have a phone that is practically unusable when not plugged in.

Cheers!
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Could also be a faulty battery as I've tried to roms you mentioned and did not have the same issue with battery. If not battery it could be a hardware issue. You can buy a cheap battery easily to test this
[Touch HD General] Gussy:
I've already tried a second battery as I mentioned, doesn't make any difference at all.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Have you ensured that all data connections are closed, Beam turned off and no automatic updates are ticked (weather, stock, email etc). If so, then it sounds like a faulty device.
[Touch HD General] Gussy:
Does the exact same thing even with wireless off and in aeroplane mode.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Defo faulty device then
[Touch HD General] MasDroid:
Hi Gussy,

I agree with Fallen Spartan and I think it's a hardware issue (battery issue).

Please try the following:

(1) Charge the battery to 100%.

(2) Disable from running or uninstall any 3rd party applications.

(3) Disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi,

(4) Enable flight mode

(5) Set backlight to maximum settings.

(6) In the power management settings, uncheck any option that would set the backlight to turn off.

(7) Let phone stay idle for 1 hour and check battery capacity.

(8) If there is a loss of 40% or more, then this means that battery is faulty and needs to be replaced.

Regards.
[Touch HD General] Gussy:
Battery won't charge to 100%, only 99%.

I have done pretty much that test already, a few times, with the original and a new battery, and neither lasts the 1hr.
[Touch HD General] MasDroid:
Ah sorry, yep sounds like a faulty device. Is it under warranty? I don't think you could even flash back to stock ROM and Radio if you are planning to return the device (even if still under warranty) because of the power consumption issue :(
[Touch HD General] Gussy:
It have about 7 days of a 1 year warranty left, from the eBay seller I got it off. Sent the guy an email, don't expect a reply though.

I can flash back to stock, I just keep it plugged in and it works fine.
[Touch HD General] MasDroid:
Ok mate. I suppose you have done all that can be done. Hope the warranty situation works in your favour.

Best Regards.
[Touch HD General] fex:
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm interesting.

my hd as been displaying the exact same symptoms for near on a month now,

i assumed the battery was cooked but its near identical to your issues,

i aquired a hero around the same time it started playing up so i aint been that bothered but reading this got me thinking its time to think about sending it off for repair.

if as i think you meant nrgz28s rom then i also flashed the 17th dec 6.5 dusk rom build 28014.

i cant be 100% sure thats the exact time the problems started but its very close if not the exact time.

the phone was purchased around mid december last year so about the same age if yours was new.

coincidence or contract concspiracy lol?
[Touch HD General] Giblet-dono:
Could this be caused by a faulthy radio>!
[Touch HD General] Bodisson:
Hmmm, could be, but most probably still the hardware error.

Altough, combination of very mismatched radio and RIL could cause simillar symptoms...

Best check this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=466274
[Touch HD General] mightbme:
I had a similar problem.

Drain battery to about 5 - 10%

Turn phone off

Charge from a wall charger (not usb or car)

Do this a couple of times.

It fixed mine for about 6 months and then I just did it again and it sorted it out again.

Also check which radio. 1.17 seems to run cooler by most accounts.
[Touch HD General] Numptyfied:
I was initially thinking that there is a program or piece of software maxing out the resources and the cpu causing the extreme heat (the HD gets bloody hot when being pushed) and poor battery life.

hi, i would like to change the battery icon to the percentage numbers. how do i do this? am using HTC Diamond with the official rom wm6.1. the other roms i tried here are always giving me the not sufficient memory error when i run garmin mobile XT.

not really sure about the diamonds but there is an app called battclock. that rocks.shows clocka nd % on the task bar.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] soulbandaid:
Has anyone notices how far downhill the kaiser rom development board has gone? does this happen with all old phones? one in ten threads get locked because the user asks a dumb @$$ question which is against the rules. I couldn't find a new windows rom within the first three pages. Are we just obsolete now? Thanks to all of you who make content which makes my phone rock. I'm sad to see things have gone this way. Could our hardware be so bad as to deserve this fate on XDA?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stuntdouble:
I'm assuming this is an ironic statement/question and that you're not just asking a "dumb @$$ question" here, exactly as you are complaining about.

There are plenty of roms on the 1st page of the roms section. Maybe you should look again, or use the search.

Inevitably threads will die as devices they are talking about get older. I don't believe this kaiser section is dying, in fact I believe it's thriving. The Kaiser series is holding it's own over the years quite nicely.

Dear all, I am come from Hong Kong

I tried to flash a cooked rom (I tried three of different cooked rom), but the phone keep crash, and everytime, when I reset the phone, it will be re-install the rom again......(Even I use HardSPL or SSPL to flash cooked rom)

the only solution is: I have to install a ship rom......

I really really want to change my Chinese ship rom!!!!

Is there anyone got a same problem as me??

Or just my phone's problem?

Anyone can help me please?!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mobile88:
Did you take out your SIM card and SD card before flashing ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Lizzo:
exact SAME thing used to happen to me, the way i solved it was to HSPL, the flash the phone from bootloader NOT with active sync connection
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kayzee:
you mean enter to bootloader and use PC to flash it?

or enter to bootloader and run leoimg.nbh??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kayzee:
I did it...but same problem...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kayzee:
I tried this, but still got the same error......
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] lakeman:
check bootloader screen

check the bootloader screen to make sure hardSPL got installed

You should see a line saying

CotullaHSPL

if it is not there you are not free to flash
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kayzee:
yes,I've checked

PB1100 HX-BC

SPL-1.42.SHPL XE

0x05

CotullaHSPL 0x30
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] libogen:
I have the same experience.

I had HSPL already. I can only successfully flashed different roms

posted in internet.(such as Duttys, l3v5y, Taiwan CHT). I can only flash self-customize WWE rom by myself. However, I fail tens of time to flash HK-CHT

self-customized rom, even with different SYS and XIP by HSPL and SSPL.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kayzee:
Hello, libogen~

Where are you come from? Taiwanese?

you mean you can flash to Duttys, l3v5y and Taiwan CHT rom?

Is the Taiwan CHT rom official or cooked one?

Could you mind to tell me which version of your Duttys and l3v5y?

I want to try those rom!!

Thanks so much!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kayzee:
thanks,babe!!

you are right!!

I installed Duttys's rom, its works!!!!!

thanks so so so much!!

But anyone know why we can only install some cooked rom only?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] libogen:

I can flash the following rom to my HK HTC HD2:

Now that people are starting to receive their Nexus One handsets, it would be really good if there was a single thread where people could post their first impressions, then a mini review after a few days of use.

So far I can't see any threads like that on this forum, only the one logging existing issues with the N1. This will be a really helpful set of opinions for people like myself who are WinMo owners potentially considering a switch.
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Me from another forum first impressions....

NoHD recording or playback.

Yes this sucka is FAST. Im convinced engadget rigged the speed test. The loading of websites is insanely fast.

MultiTouch/Pinch Zoom on Dolphin Browser is fantastic!

MUCH better than Iphne for the simple reason text will format itself to the display once pinched in or out. I cant fathom how people overlook this feature.

Homescreen cards are useless.

Homescreen crawling with live wallpapers ((especially rain)) is slightly choppy at times. Regular wallpapers smooth.

Creepy moment....Maybe I overlooked something I did.. but how did camera pics from my G1 appear on my Nexus One gallery ???? Im seriously baffled. ((drop box)) is the only info I have. Maybe Its in picasa ?? Need to check this.

App installation ?....insanely fast..serious. Its done quicker than you can exit out so far. ((wifi))

Screen is gorgeous.. I will say this. It may not WOW you at first. But the second you go back to Iphone or another phone.. it REALLY hits you how sharp this phone is. Similar to dvd to HD. Biggest difference is when you go back and realize how blurry it was.
[Nexus One General] firedup:

[Nexus One General] Kermee:
Did you ever upload your G1 camera pix to Picasa? Gallery on the Nexus One (2.1) seems to pull/sync albums off Picasa now...

First impressions after a few hours:

FAST!! (especially coming from the Hero). I was download/installing apps in the background and didn't notice any slowdown.

The screen is awesome. Not just the resolution, the colors are really good. OLED is worth it.

Different hardware button order on the bottom: Back-Menu-Home-Search on the N1. Not a big deal, but I had assumed that Android would come with a recommended button layout. Oh and the buttons are capacitive sensing, not protruding rubber buttons.
[Nexus One General] karnovaran:
After about 24 hours..

FAST, FAST, FAST... app installs are ridiculously quick. As mentioned earlier, I don't know what Engadget was doing because the browser loads everything super quick for me. Maybe they should have ran multiple tests beyond their cluttered mess they call a website.

Transitioning between homescreens can be done by touching the bottom left and right, which show dots to indicate where you are. Center screen has two dots on each side, if you click the right dots you'll have 3 on the right and 1 on the left, click to the right again and you'll have 4 on the right and 0 on the left. hard to explain, but I like it better than swiping.

Some apps need to be updated to 2.1, so I'm missing some functionality but I'm sure that will be taken care of soon.

The screen is GORGEOUS. I spent over an hour last night reading a large pdf document and never felt any eyestrain whatsoever. I'm sensing great E-reader possibilities here. Further, the battery barely lost any juice while the screen was lit up for such a long period. Battery life has been excellent so far, much better than my Ion.

Speech-to-text works well so far.

Call clarity has been fine, but I've only talked for a few minutes.

No radio issues, showing over 1mbps here in the DC area.

N1 on AT&T

I'm stuck on ATT and with wifi it is extremely fast not much faster than my sons 3gs to compare with. But definately faster and smoother. I thought that edge would be terrible and it is slower of course but surprising noticably much faster than my G1. Maybe a better radio or just the horsepower. I have wifi at work and home and don't have a lot of idle time except maybe at the airport (which has wifi) so I'm ok.

At this point I don't see anything on the horizon to top this for a while.

You know you want one and you deserve it!!!! Do it!!! Yup, even on AT&T !!!
[Nexus One General] cboy007:
FAST FAST FAST. got this like an hour ago and sprang out of bed (SNOW DAY!)

anyways it's super fast. like 10 times faster than g1. you hit install and it's done. you click something and it's up. multi touch in dolphin is crazy. cant wait till tonight when cyanogen includes MT in regular browser.

complains? have to get used to top button / lock screen. i also have to agree with engadget that the touch buttons seem to be higher than they should be. as in for say HOME, you have to hit the top half of it really close to screen for it to work, if u hit too far down it doesnt. and too far down is too far up IMO.

BEAUTIFUL. screen is gorgeous.

camera takes pictures like instantly. and even autofocuses. no dedicated camera button tho :(.

not sure about sound quality. talked to cousin and it seemed maybe worse? idk i have to wait and see.i dont like that its microusb and not miniusb but that's not really an issue.

but seriously it's ridiculously responsive and awesome and fast and worth my money :). onscreen keyboard works great especially in landscape.
[Nexus One General] JackCarv3r:
Hello guys and compliments for yours purchase.

Can I make you some question?

Video resolution is 720x480 but how much frame for second?

Can you see flash site? I read that adobe flash 10.1 working on nexus one, I see a video.

It's possibile to add a T9 keyboard text input like nokia 5800? I see a program "better keyboard" made this.

Thanks you guys
[Nexus One General] stewart1988:
cboy007 is the onscreen keyboard multitouch?
[Nexus One General] cboy007:
GRR. no its not. it's not that big of a deal for me and also you can count on either an update making it MT or another keyboard just using it's API's. the next HTC_IME might be MT for all we know.
[Nexus One General] cboy007:
not sure the FPS...i can post a test video for you in a little to check it out or look at one already posted. it's better than other phone but not amazing...

no flash YET it's coming soon as an update but right now there is no flash...

better keyboard or HTC IME willl allow for t9. and idk what t9 you mean...the normal keyboard has predictive to some extent but if you want phone keypad predictive go with better KB or HTC IME. i'm seeing if the current HTC IME works in a little.
[Nexus One General] darkstar38:
The Nexus one is absolutely amazing!! I came from 32b sapphire(my touch). This phone is probably ten times faster at loading apps and navigating around. Internet browsing is insanely fast, its pretty much like browsing on a pc. Typing on the android keyboard is actually pretty good, if I type as fast as I can the phone does not miss a beat, I tested hitting 2 keys at the same time and it always picks up both of them. I have never noticed the phone slow down one bit even when it is running 20+ apps at the same time. Almost all the apps I had for the Mytouch have worked very well on the Nexus. Orientation is almost instant, and the camera takes pics really fast as mentioned above. The screen is beautifully clear and functions well. So far I'm very impressed!
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
the video resoultion is 800x480

screens dfont have fps but rather i think you mean to say refresh rate. the refresh rate on OLED displays is very high.

It is possible to add a T9 keyboard. Cyanogen will soon release the HTC_IME keyboard for nexus one and it supports this feature.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
No, he's asking about the specs if you're taking video with the camera. It is 720x480, but I don't know the fps.

[Nexus One General] mcarey66:
I've had mine for about an hour now and I LOVE it. The screen is amazing and very vibrant . The phone itself looks and feels great. When it changes to landscape view it is SUPER fast, there is pretty much no lag to speak of.

My biggest issue so far is the fact it doesn't use the normal mini usb for charging. The only reason I have an issue with that is the fact I have mini USB chargers everywhere in my house.

Besides that the only other thing I don't care for is the automatic screen brightness. I like my screen bright and it tends to get a little to dim when it's on auto matic.

Engadgets Browser Test....... BS

I keep hearing mention of the Engadget's browser test video between the Droid, N1 and IPhone. What they fail to mention is that engadget's site is safari optimized, yes apple's safari! Try any other website, and you'll have vastly different results. They keep saying that the Droid's and N1's performance was "embarrassing", the true embarrassment is the lack of objectivity that engadget has shown when regarding anything apple!
[Nexus One General] Swervo:
Wow, I didn't know about not charging off miniUSB...that's kinda a bummer, that's how I always charged my G1. Guess I'll have to make sure not to lose my official charger.

I've had it for about 90 minutes so far. Reading Engadget's review made me afraid I was going to have buyer's remorse, but the two things that bothered me the most in their review turn out to be non-issues. I tried out the screen in the bright Los Angeles sun and, at least when the brightness is turned up, it's still usable. The screen reflects a lot of light though, and the glare can make it tough, but you can still see what's on the screen through it just fine. Also, no multitouch is a bummer in most cases, but the multitouch on the Dolphin browser is just as good as the iPhone's, nice and smooth. Finally, page loading for me has been plenty fast, and despite Speedtest saying there's no real change in download speed, it appears to download pages much more quickly (I'm assuming it's due to the page rendering that much faster).

Everything is fast, boot times appear to be under 30 seconds (I didn't time it), no real lag so far, the keyboard is very responsive, scrolling is smooth as glass -- I'm not regretting the purchase in the slightest, though I am feeling a little bad for my poor G1, he served me well for quite some time!
