[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehseano:
So I guess my question is, "Can anyone help me?"

I used custom ringtones, and I don't like using them from the SD card, it creates lag, takes longer to load the ringtone, etc, so I keep them on my /system/media folder. Normally to accomplish this, when I install a new ROM update, I edit it and resign it, with my media folder, rather than the ROM's.

My predicament however, is that I don't know how to change the file structure for the update, I know there are files in the update that say, this and this folder exist, where this goes, etc. This is what I don't know how to do.

All I need the update to do is contain the media (/system/media) folder, so I can just add all my ringtones and notifications to this update, and flash it after I flash whatever update/rom, etc, instead of always having to be at my computer to create a custom version of every rom I use.

Could anyone please care to help? I'd be ever grateful.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ID#:
You can use the attached file.

Just edit the files in the ROM

zip it

put the zipped ROM in the same folder as the attached files

run sign.bat

FLASH
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehseano:
is this just to be used for signing? i already know how to sign files. i need someone to edit w/e files are inside the rom that tell its structure (this folder exists, and gets flashed here, this folder goes here, etc). i cant just take a cm rom and delete everything i dont need then flash it. it will get errors in recovery.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cloverdale:
Make a folder called media in the root of your update, and create the proper descending folders in media (i.e. audio/ringtones, etc). Place your notifications/ringtones/alarms etc in the proper folders. (I am sure you understand this already)

Open your update-script file for the update and add the line

copy_dir PACKAGE:media SYSTEM:media

That should do it.

Note that if in the update-script you already have an entire system folder being copied over via

copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:

then you need only add the folder media to the folder /system in the update.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehseano:
Thanks man, but my buddy actually just helped me out with this, but yeah thats exactly what I needed to know. Thanks a ton mate :)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] GripR:
I just got the Sprint TP2 and I don't want to use a different rom yet. Is there any settings I could turn off or turn on to make this phone more tolerable? It's just so slow.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jmy72:
Get a registry editor and just make a couple registry edits as follows.

HKLM\System\Storagemanager\Fatfs

change "Cachesize" to 32768

HKLM\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE

Set both limit settings to 32768

HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings

create dword key "SpeedHigh" set value to 5

create dword key "SpeedLow" set value to 14

(Do not add the quotes, and its case sensitive)

HKLM\SYSTEM\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt

Set “ReplStoreCacheSize” to 8192

HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn

Set "battery" to 30000

Another good one to increase your In call Volume

HKCU\control panel\sound categories\\in call

set "initial volume" to 4

That should help ya out a lil, But just so you know, stock roms run like crap outta the box, cuz carriers wanna put all that junk you don't need in the rom.

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] circleofomega:
I just saw the 6.5.3 by Christian and then there is the newly released Spikegotti's 6.5 ROM(12th Jan release)

Which one should I flash???

Spikegotti's are always as close to the original. is it the same question with Christin's ROM as well??

Is it 6.5.3 like it is in the original ROM that comes in the devices???

im looking for ROMs that are as close to original as possible....

Thanx a ton!!

Also, is the Christian's ROM a BETA and time enabled?? as in will it expire o something??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] sillysquid:
I've only used Christians ROM and as far as I know theres no time limit.

Looks like the show demos/ previews that are kicking around on youtube but having never used the real one I can't be certain.

Probably worth flashing and having a play ... only takes a minute to reflash :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] circleofomega:
Thanx ^ sillysquid..yea that was what i was thinking....
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] killer8nl:
wm is never finised and if that means it beta then all roms are beta. I mean they are still developing wm 6.1 so would that mean there are only beta versions till now? For the timebomb you are talking about. It's in every changelog. If needed it's always fixed like with every rom in this forum I think. But sometimes it's not needed so then it's also in the changelog.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] circleofomega:
hey..thanx killer8nl...now all i wanted to know is that is your 6.5.3 landscape mode enabled??

also the panels will still be as is rite?>?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] killer8nl:
Ofcourse it's landscape mode enabled;) Everything got landscape.

[HD2 General] Athar Mansoor:
Hi,

There used to be a start screen which displayed to move the phone in an "8" pattern when you start up the digital compass. For a couple of days now am not seeing that screen when I start the digital compass.

Is there any way I can get it back.. was kinda cool..

Regards,

Mansoor.
[HD2 General] novalistic:
Try operate near magnetic field area, such as near a speaker or PC. :D :D
[HD2 General] Athar Mansoor:
Ok.. that was good.. and had me running the phone all over the pc and the speaker.. doesn't work..

some reg tweak? anyone..
[HD2 General] GodsGift:
Why would you WANT that screen... I found it so annoying when I just wanted the Compass to work.

Mine now works all the time without the annoying start screen.

GG
[HD2 General] richardirv:
I assumed it only comes up when it's near interference and needs re-calibrating.
[HD2 General] Athar Mansoor:
Tried that.... still dint come up..
[HD2 General] ftr2k8:
Then you have a calibrated compass ;)

Aside from standing in a magnet factory I have no advice, sorry.
[HD2 General] yusufidara:
Dear Mansoor

[HD2 General] Athar Mansoor:
yea, tried all of that. the screen doesn't show up. and by the way it always used to show up on the start.

can some one look at it. may be give, me the files or something.
[HD2 General] richardirv:
Is the compass working correctly ie. showing north? If so why do you need it to come up with the calibration screen? its just an annoyance.
[HD2 General] Athar Mansoor:
yea, it does work. It kinda liked that screen. and plus its a nice show off when people pick up your phone to look at it. :p

on a more serious note. I just want to be sure I haven't deleted some files accidentally.
[HD2 General] richardirv:
I don't think you have deleted anything mine doesn't come up very often anymore, only when needs recalibrating i assume.
[HD2 General] Athar Mansoor:
Well that's exactly what I tried. moved near magnetic interference, speakers. still no sign of it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] thekguy:
To remove any watermark(like bikiterbi's) you will need

A Registry Editor for Windows Mobile like RegEdit

hatatp://best-regedit.en.softonic.com/pocketpc

remove both a's in hatatp as new users aren't allowed to post links outside xda

Open the registry editor and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

then find Software sub key and click on it

Locate Microsoft and click on it

Locate Shell and click on it

now you should find the keys 'Expiry' and 'Today'

clear the values of both of them(or make your own one- the tutorial is below)

If you're making your own watermark, then set the 'Today' key value to the text you want as the larger text. and the 'Expiry' key value to the text of smaller text

I found out there is an export option for Resco Contact Manager, and you can export all your contacts in .csv or .xml format.

The thing is, there is no option to import, so how do i import those files?

I use SASHIMI, will it be ok if i just put the .xml file in the 'XML' folder?

Is there a way to completely disable HTC ResProxy? I don't mean set it to Dynamic, I want to see what happens when I completely disable it. Will I stop having memory issues if I do? After a day or so I can only have 1 -- at most 2 -- programs in the background.

All I have running right now is Opera 10 and Vito SMS-Chat and I only have 25MB free. ROM: RRE 2.3 Uptime: 1 day
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] IMissPalmOS:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ResProxy]

"ShareMemSize"=dword:00000000
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SecretAgentMan:
Well, that's the correct key, but at least with VZ's 6.5 (MR1), you'll find that the value gets reset to its default after reset.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] IMissPalmOS:
You're right, it does reset! Funny I never noticed that...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mr_sheen:
do we really have to manually set it to 0 everytime we soft reset? because i set it to 0 and after soft reset the ram usage went down to 42% at boot. it use to be 50%. the value does reset back though, with all sorts of different value each time. Weird.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Waynegrow:
I recently synced my HD after having flashed the EVO Grid 1.8 ROM.

Since it took over half an hour I disconnected the phone from the computer during the sync process. Now the screen freezes as soon as the smart mobility screen shows up. I soft reset' the phone as well as I tried hard resets. Still the phone doesn't go beyond the smart mobility screen and freezes.Is there another option to get the phone back apart from resetting it? Or is it completely bricked now. I've always successfully flashed the roms, so it can't be connected to a wrong ROM flash.Thank you for a feedback.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] JoeyBimmel:
What you can try is place an ROM on your memory card (BLACIMG.nbn) and flash it. (shut down phone, hold vol down and power up).

Maybe this will do the trick. Good luck :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jontelfer:
Can you still get the phone into bootloader mode (tricolor screen)? It's likely you can - then just re-flash the rom (although to be safe I'd download it again).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Did you follow this guide to initally flash rom? If not, I'd suggest you do. As pointed out above, if you can still get into bootloader your device is not bricked. Just follow guide and reflash rom
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kajorn:
just do like "jontelfer" said go to 'bootloader' for getting 'Tricolor' by pressing 'Volume Down' and 'Power' 1 time. Then u can see 'tricolor' and re-flash what ever rom you want.

I had try 'Xannytech ROM Grid Leo 2.5 (Internal Rel. 4.2.5.202)' and found the same as your problem 2 times already.

Now I'd change to test others.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stoolzo:
I would be tempted to flash it back to original SPL and ROM and then start again from scratch. This happened to me a few months back, I couldnt flash any cooked ROMS at all until I reverted back to stock and started again.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bya:
Yeah and do not forget to hard reset after flashing. It can sound useless but it really helped me when I got some problems with some roms...

- Bya -
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Waynegrow:
Thanks everyone. I flashed to a different ROM and it's working again now.

It's tougher than I thought to find an innovative, graphically sophisticated and most of all stable ROM.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] borg28:
good to hear had this ones before and gladly figured out how to go back and flashed it again with a stable rom!!
[G1 Android Development] UAE:
Finally, the Android's framework have been programmed to fully support Arabic letters.

This includes messages, contacts and any other programs which displays Arabic letters (except a few)

It also includes Ayman's Al Sanad arabized web browser

This is a first release, is only available on Cyaogen's ROM (which works for Dream and Magic)

Whats missing/wrong:

-Arabic directionality is still not implemented (Right to Left))

-Some apps (like Gmail) are not Arabized till now (DONE! -- Repaired now for Gmail,iSilo ..etc -- Check 4.2.14.1)

Anyone having any issues with this ROM, please use the issue tracker at ArabicAndroid on Google codes

Hopefully, the other android devices will be getting this soon

Thanks goes to Cyanogen for his great and faaaast ROM, also goes to whoever helped him in achieving this.

Thanks also goes to Ayman Al Sanad, who initiated the idea with his project site (Arabic Android) and his arabization for the android browser

I just want to let you know that I have flasshed ROM you provided and it works well with mytouch and I can readh gmail and browse Arabic websites.

Thanks to you all. I just wish that we can follow up with Cyanogen Updates or have him include this Arabized version into his ROM.

Do you think this is possible so we can take advantage of his updates and keep Arabic support.

A month or so back my phone started showing a new SMS message, but when I went into the inbox there was no new message. I deleted SMS message out of all of the folders and it still showed one new message.

hey

i installed finger keyboard

and it really is very nice

but sometimes i have a problem with

sometimes when i want to write a message or bring up the keyboard to scroll with the direction it doesn't appear and seems to be stuck

and then i have to rebbot the phone for it to work

any thoughts , solutions ?
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
Hello,

If you are having this problem in particular when you are writing SMS then it might well be linked to the SMS problem already talked about exhaustively on here. There is a partial solution for this in the Hints & Tips thread.

If it's not that then it might just be worth your while reinstalling finger keyboard and see if that helps. Another alternative might be to install the Swype keyboard (works well on my device) and see if that solves the problem.

Work through this step by step and see if any of the suggestions help.

Cheers

WB
[HD2 General] Master-D:
well it's not just in the SMS

it also happened in the file browser when i wanted to scroll down with keyboard keys

i did reinstall it , so it seems it didn't help

as for the swipe keyboard

that's a problem since i need hebrew in my keyboard

btw an unrelated question

i saw in the tips thread that many times you need to change the registry keys

how do i do that in this device ?

thanks

I had problems typing the good letters on the keyboard. Always a bit out of line it seemd. Then i Aligned my screen again, and now its working much better. Maybe give it a try, it improved my typingspeed.

[HD2 General] snerkler:
How do you align your screen?

Also, I keep reading threads about different keyboards, is that just down to personal preference or do some really work better than others? I've not had a problem with the one that's already on the HD2 to be honest,
[HD2 General] kor kuiper:
Look here

settingstab, then push menu , extra`s(more), system, screen.

There you can align your screen by pushing 5 positions on your screen

Grtz

[HD2 General] Master-D:
i don't actually have problems with the typing part

i'll try to explain

when you go to the sms section or filer browser you can see the finger keyboard logo in middle-bottom of the screen

and if you want to use it , you press that logo\button and the keyboard comes up

well sometimes no matter how much time you press ( or where )

it doesn't come up
[HD2 General] kor kuiper:
Ok , a different problem.

A litle thing i sometimes try.

Because the screen is capacitive, when i don`t get a knob to work i wet my finger a litle bit. My skin is normaly dry. When it is "wetter" is seems to react better.

There is a thread about the keyboards sensitivity that could solve that issue.

After BSBTweaks 1.6 i don`t have problems.

With sms install the latest htc patch, it speeds up things in sms, where it looks the screen doesnt react but`it was the progres in the background stil runnning...

Just try, doesn`t cos anything :-)

kk
[HD2 General] Master-D:
sorry for the late response

right now everything seems to be ok , the keyboard works fine

i did find some other problem in it though

i have 2 languages in it : hebrew and english

now when i press the lng button it does switch between the 2 of them

however it doesnt switch to digits

if i go to the finger settings and switch the lng button from nextlayout/digits to digits/nextlayout then when i press lng button it switches from one of the languages to digits but not to the second language
[HD2 General] Master-D:
anyone ? ...............
[HD2 General] Looking Glass:
Not that one.

I've got a different one, that's, when switching to the second language, the vertical space between rows increases, and the half bottom part of the lower character row dissapears. Using Eng and Spa.

It's just me?
