battery drain

i have read the posts and i have tried everything that has been recomended for battery saving methods, i even went out and bought a new one and still it is drained in less than a day..... is there anything else that can be done ????
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] El Nino1977:
You can disable in the CHT Editor.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] El Nino1977:
Apart from the obvious, dim backlight, change to gsm not 3g, turn of wifi/bluetooth when not used, bsb tweaks etc. My phone will last me all day at work and charge up when i get home, 2 days with minimal phone calls and wifi at night. Pretty standard battery life. Only other suggestion is to use another rom that uses less battery.

Memory usage

Dear All,

While I see that the first post says that the memory usage at start up is 49 and goes up to 60+ when fully loaded, which is also agreed by many, my device behaves weirdly.

Start up has about 60+ % and when fully loaded it goes up to 80%.

What could potentially be the problem. I didnt face it only with this ROM, but when I had stock ROM too, I had the same issue while I saw fellow members say the same thing about 50 to 65% during start up and fully loaded.

Any help would be great.

Yogam.

ok...i don't why but with this rom the speaker doesn't work, so when i call somebody i don't hear him... Anybody knows why?

It's also very slow,... i made task29 before the rom install....but it doesn't help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] theisgroup:
I have not had a smart phone that last more then 10 hours. but the normal battery saving tips apply. I find that the radios are the biggest battery eater. so if you run exchange, turn off "as items arrive" and set the sync times to a reasonable timeframe. same with all other email clients. also turn off update for weather or at least down to a long time like 4 hours. if you want to know what the temp is outside, just goto the weather tab and update it. also found an app called wmlonglife. you can set it up for each app and what radio it uses. don't turn on 3g unless you need the speed. and as other posters have said turn off wifi, bluetooth and vibrate. vibrate eats battery more then the speaker

Flip mirror is not updated by Sergio or anyone in the team, So please use the link under the big button as stated by TheMaster666.

The EVO name of this ROM has nothing to do with the Dusk EVO theme. There are two versions of this rom a 21907 (PRO) and a 23569 (EVO) Build. Commonly adressed to as windowd mobile 6.5(21907) and 6.5.3(23569). Look in the Dusk theme thread to find which you should use to be able to install it.

The thread linked to above will take you through everything you will need to know, but as said earlier, READ AND REREAD as things might go bad if you don't know what you are doing!

I'm sorry, I really don't know what happened to you. I'll try to test some more later today and see if it works/ doesn't work with me..

Have you tried to clear your cache and redownload? I haven't tried to download in a while, and I'm on my way out the door to a dinner at my folks haouse, but I'll try to dl later if it still won't dl with you.

The memoryusage in this rom is high. the numbers from the first post I think haven't been updated by Sergio, so don't pay to much attention to them.

The memory usage is high due to all the custom graphics by Sergio. I suggest you diable the sensetabs you don't use (Stocks, fingerprints etc..?) CleanRam is set up to run once every 1-3 hours (don't remember right now..) so It'll keep it running smooth longer, but I suggest you do a Soft reset from time to time to make sure your device is running smooth and with less battery drainage.

-Sblindheim, with a broken foot!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] :
in the ppc forum i found out that i just have to delete or rename a registry key named

HKCU/ControlPanel/Backlight/LockLevel

i did it and it worked.

i backed it up and then deleted it. the guy in the ppc forum told to rename it. i do not really know about other consequences of doing that. but it solves the dim backlight issue for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chinchillachubby:
battery

First let me start by thanking everyone for their input. I have done a little research on this battery life issue and came up with this... First it is better to have 3g on instead of gsm, it uses more battery when using gsm. Second giving your battery a full charge is more bad then good for lit batterys for they a senseative to heat and charging a battery from 10% to 100% or a full charge will cause the battery to lose cells. Which means the more ou do it the more it will lose power. It is said to only do a full charge once a month and to do small charges in betwwen, so when your battery hits 40% charge it.Seeing that is the way it came out the box it is recommend to charge at 40% more often than giving it a full charge too many times causing battery damage. You can look up this info on google under lithium battery drainage it even gives you example also google "make your htc tilt 2 suck less here" he has a chart that explains the issues
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] yogam1:
Hi,

Thanks for the reply and that gives a piece of mind that its not only my device :)

Yeap, I already have disabled the tabs that I dont use. I also did a hard reset yesterday and to see if there is any difference. Let me monitor.

Thank you.

I don't mean any disrespect just curious if there is a way for me to change it. I'm gonna keep the rom installed it's runs awsome. One background isn't gonna keep me from using the rom. FYI The wife almost caught a backhand for saying that to me.

The image is custom made by the Chef, so unless he decides to change it, it will stay there! (pwning complete ;))

There isn't any easy way to change that image. I don't know what and/or where to change it, but my guess is that it's a manila_xXxXxX file in windows directory. Feel free to look for it and change it..

Was there ever a 2.1 version released with no HTC messaging?

TIA
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dominicanman912:
unfortunately not! hopefully this next round of roms will include non-htc messaging versions!

btw its not really that bad to me anymore. i just hate to have to empty messages every day or two because i go through 100s a day!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] thuytvu24:
ok. so which is better? cell evo or pro? i dont get. sorry
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sblindheim:
Neither is better or worse than the other. It's the Windows Mobile build which is different.

EVO has the newest 6.5.x build. It has bigger buttons and are more fingerfriendly. Startmenu are at the bottom left.

PRO has the newest 6.5 build. Smaller buttons, startmenu at the top left.

Which is better comes down to personal taste. Try one and see, try the other one and compare :)

-Sblindheim
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheMaster666:
I have one of each now..

I have less Lockups with PRO... (none so far)

It is way more stable..

Somewhere in the first few posts it used to say that.. Not sure if it still does or not...

Core Theme Customize

I have searched this thread and others including Grump's but cannot seem to find an answer.

I cannot get anything to populate in the Core Theme Customize App. It worked in the past but now when I select the clock, flippers, etc. within the application, each one just has a blank dropdown menu. If I hit Apply when it is blank I get an unexected error. I had it working in the past but now I cannot figure why nothing is there? Also I have tried to re-flash to no avail.

Any ideas or others with a similar issue?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iHaze:
I've had that issue also. It was remedied via a soft reset for me. Idk if that might work for you. Open the menus again and if the blank drop downs pop up reset it right after and that should fix it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Russ741:
Matt--define new? You mean the latest released (21907/23569) or the next release (we haven't decided yet)?

If you searched this thread you must have miss it. you MUST soft reset after loading the ROM or you will not have anything in the pull downs.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] hixmatt:
Oh, Russ, but of course I mean the next release. I am running 23569. I read somewhere that the new 6.5.5 builds were dropping threaded email, but gaining a ton of speed. Was only curious. Keep up the good work. -Matt
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iHaze:
Russ, or any other member of beta team. Has Sergio given any word about cooking HTC Messaging client v1.8 into the v3? I'm really looking forward to it. Rather than having to intall the cab version every flash.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Psychobaby69:
Yup tried it on my phone as well and still only got the 4MBs. Then I tried using the mirror one by F1lip(?) got it to DL but when I went to open it I got a "File is corrupt" warning and winrar canceled the action and wouldn't let me open it.

Is there anyway to get hold of the owner of the mirror to let him/her know about the corrupt file thing? I really want to give this rom a shot!

Edit: trying it again and now it seems to be downloading...actually have 20% dl now....wow maybe operator malfunction on my part lol?!

For those of you who have a flashing low light due to Sergio being on Vacation/Holiday, I thought I would post a testing update.

Do you install through Autoinstall folder or NRGs alternative?? Dont install anything on set up, then install cabs one by one to find the culprit. tbh mine goes warmer on when on charge, unless is excessive heat nothing to worry about.

Hi Russ and team, I use Exchange email and noticed the Send Receive to manually force an email doesn't work. Not a major, I use the Sync from the Applications folder to achieve the same result.

Keep up the great work and looking forward to v3.

hello guys!

I tried this ROM and was going back to my usual ROM but I cannot get rid of the first image about this ROM that comes up when I turn on the phone...

any ideas? :-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Doo Doo:
Flash back to stock rom then flash your usual rom & you should be good to go :D:D:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] YOSEFE:
You need to flash back to stock rom, then flash to your chosen cooked rom.

That is what works for me when I want to get rid of the boot image of the rom I am changing from.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] shaolin95:
So that means there must be a program out there for me to customize that screen with my favorite team for example right?

Go pens! lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] John823:
Hello. Thanks for your reply.

But unfortunately I do not quite understand what you write.

Well you would go to: Start Menu -> Settings -> Personal -> Phone ->...... I am there I do not see any option to disable this. I know that the ROM from the start menu at the bottom unless there is just such an option. But not here. May have been checking it?

Have any idea?

Ok, this might be a stupid question, but what version am I seeing in the this picture:

I have tried to figure out how to get programs to my home screen, but can't seem to do it. I have downloaded Cell Pro V9 and cell pro V9.5 ATT.... Can I get programs to my home screen using either of these?

Scott
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stunno:
The one on the left is the EVO and the one on the right is the PRO, as it says above them in the picture.

If you have flashed either one you will have a row of blank icons at the bottom of the screen. Tap one and will ask which program you want associated with the icon
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] poriggity:
I have the Pro V9.5 ATT right now, and I do not have any blank icons on my home screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Doo Doo:
Thats because you need to flash 1 of the newer roms either evo 2.1 or pro 2.1 which ever you prefer then you will see the blank icons on the home screen :D:D:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nqnguyen2:
From your response it sounds like you need to do a lot more reading and understand what is going on before flashing anything. Keep this in mind, flashing your device can seriously damage it and render it useless.

Spaker Issue

I am running Evo 2.1 with radio 4.49.25.91 I am wondering if the room twicks the Volume registry? I am experiencing some issues with the front speaker. the sound quality is very poor and it sound like if the speaker has been blowout. I have never use the phone at full volume or twick the registry before. I am wondering if this is a software issue or if the phone has some hardware malfunction:eek:

Any advice will be apprecitae

....Well Im ready - looking forward to the new ROMs.... THANKS
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nqnguyen2:
I'm not exactly sure of what you mean by blown out. I remember the bass being too high with little treble which caused my earpiece speaker to sound muffled.

I used these registry tweaks found on XDA to fix the issue. Give it a try if your problems are similar to mine.

Registry: HKCU\Control Panel\SoundCategories\InCall

Key: AttenuationCategory

Default: 2

New Value: 1

Registry: HKCU\Control Panel\SoundCategories\InCall

Key: InitVol

Default: 3

New Value: 10
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sblindheim:
You are on the right place. There should be a sound-option there somewhere. (top bar looking something like this: Sound < network > xxx)

Press sound, and there should be the option to disable the keypadsound.

Someone want to chime in on this one?

Soon i get a go from team i get them uploaded and Russ will release them. Hope everyone enjoys next roms. diferent Windows Builds have been benchmarked and compared from diferent COMs & after the final results we got the fastest SYS that show on results (tests were made on exact same roms just with diferent Windows Builds and loaded with all the same Stuff so that there were no diferences) also Ram usage is down to almost 10MB and Rom is FAST really FAST.

There is also a few new things that were reskined for a better professional look and Core Backup as support now for backing Up alot of new Apps and Games(so that you dont losse all that time setting them up again and again.)

New HTC messaging with secure box there were no hacks or whatever to enable secure box it its plain original and its working 100%

Its Not the rom thats for sure.
