lookin at buyin a touch pro from a dude that cant pay his bill... says its password locked and dont know it... plus it cant get reactivated untill he pays his fees....

I can get around that right?
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
A friend of mine just got his HD2 on O2 and I suggested he flash his rom to 1.66.

Is this possible to do and also possible to flash back to the generic O2 rom in case he needs to send the phone back to O2?

Does he need to back up the O2 rom and how or is it available to download somewhere?

Finally I believe he should use either hard SPL or soft SPL if he wants to revert to O2 rom but can't remember which.

Any leads or advice appreciated.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
perfectly possible.go find the"official roms"thread, first post first link look in 1.43 section for the file with o2 in the name, that is your stock rom for backup.put that somewhere safe, then go read the several hspl threads to learn how to flash.
[HD2 General] omneity:
If your phone's working then you can easily flash it back to factory ROM, but if it's working why would you want to send it back for repair anyway?

That said, NoClue are very poor when it comes to supporting the products they happily take significant amounts of cash each month from you bank account for, so it would not be unreasonable in the eyes of "the average man" if you updated your phone with the firmware provided directly from the hardware manufacturer. ;)
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
thanks so much. i will tell him or possibly even flash it for him :)

I've noticed that my WiFi connection is unstable regardless of which ROM I'm using. I'm sitting less than 10 feet from my router and the signal is excellent yet my Fuze WiFi won't connect...I can't update 2.1 weather, can't open a page in Opera and IE.

Anyone out there with a solid WiFi connection every time they use it? Which ROM are you on? What are your settings/edits?

I'm desperate to find a solution to this since having a built in WiFi is one of the perks of the Fuze. And I don't want to be held hostage by AT$T ridiculous data plan.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] chaoscreater:
i'm using EnergyRom Jan 27th build 21889. I've never had any problems with wifi for any EnergyRom builds i use. I don't really set anything up, i just turn wifi on, and just enter the WPA passkey and it's done, it's only a one time setup, everytime i turn wifi on it'll automatically connect.

There are tools like Wifi Monster etc that can show you the strength of the wifi signal, as well as tools that gives you options to set up an advanced profile (I think it's called Wifi Profile).......

do a search for Wifi in PPCWarez and you'll find what you need.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] somepeon:
Thanks for the reply. I'm also on EnergyRom Jan 27th build 21889....I've actually been an avid follower of NRG Roms but have never had a consistent WiFi connection. I really don't know where I'm going wrong. I've been using the same WiFi for the past 3 years. I didn't have WiFi connection problems with RoMeo's Rom on my Tilt or on my Hermes. Just would like to have a dependable WiFi connection. I'm pretty sure it's not the Rom..just curious if I had things configured properly.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] s_life:
I am also having problems with the Wi-Fi connection on my HTC Touch Pro. It is very unstable and unreliable -it flies for 10-20 seconds, and then hangs. The problem persists with different routers. I am using the stock HTC ROM.

Performance Mode

Hi guys,

have yo tried switching WiFi mode from "Battery Saving" to "Performance"?

Start/Setting/Connections/Wifi icon
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] favasuper:
The same wi fi problem for me: it recognizes the network, it asks for the pass, but it doesn't connect.

i'm two meters from the router... any suggestion?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nwdst:
Try...

Change your wifi settings to preformance first.

Things that affect WiFi not particular to your phone:

1. Bluetooth on and active (same frequencies) on your phone as well as others

2. Other Routers (esp. if you live in an apartment)

3. Running Microwaves ovens

4. Other RF devices in the 2.4GHz range. (i.e. wireless keyboards, mice, novelty devices, etc.)

The only step to do is change your router at home to another channel and try again. If you are connecting outside your home, then you are at the mercy of the provider.

Is it it a dog for you is it not.

Kind of regrettably, I Started a post. Is ATT Tilt2 a Dog.

I really felt this.

I had recently upgraded my ATT Tilt (original (1)),Tilt1 if you prefer, to ATT Tilt2.

My experience was less than preferable.

While others suggested that I would be happier with another ROM, Black Berry, or (ugh,UGH, can not put in bigger caps) iPhone. I have worked with Windows Mobile, as well as others on this board, before it was a phone.

I think I was issued, initially a piece of crap.

Because of my response to this I had to take some crap.

get some, give some.

My equipment, ATT Tilt2, purchased from Walmart/Lets Talk on Black Friday 2009.

How are you doing?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jmarotto:
In love with mine

I was about to post in your previous thread, which I found a fascinating read :eek:

I actually bought two, the other for my wife. We both, had been suffering for years, with different Palm devices. I decided on these for two reasons. . .my fat fingers just didn't work with the small keyboard buttons any longer, and it had a MS OS. Like you, have been dealing with MS since DOS5. I knew what I was in for and, I knew I could tweak it. Already using Total Commander and cleanRAM. It's was a little advanced for my wife until I insisted she READ THE MANUAL. She also had an older (Cingular) SIMM. Once we had it changed out even she responded with a "wow, what a difference". We both love our Tilt2s.

Have been reading here for a week and will prolly read for a couple more before I break something I need an assist with. I've been with AT&T since 97. I hate them, but like the last female at 2:00am, there easy to deal with, so I keep renewing.

Looking forward to reading more of your posts :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kimtyson:
This is your second or third thread that is basically the same thing. Are you looking for attention or what?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nycny:
Thank you.

After a couple of months and a final equipment failure, ATT shipped, and I received today a replacement.

I am avoiding, if I can, adding any software soon, like tonight.

My experience so far, with replacement, has been more than I expected.

I work very hard during the week and from Friday evenings into the weekend, I really like to think less.

Before Monday, unless anyone asks about anything specific about this equipment, software, or ROM, I will be rebuilding to test all.

Good Night
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nycny:
Momma told me not to pay attention to folks like you.

Don't know why I do?

Maybe you have somthin to say?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bwnotredame06:
I too have been with SouthWesternBell-Wireless-(Cingular) since '96 and I absolutey loved the Service I got, I used to hate how sprint had all the cool phones, I even tryed Sprint for a month awhile and kept my SWB line on just in case, it didn't take long and I Cxd. Then Cingular started coming around with good phones that competed. The Day ATT and Cingular merged is when it all fell to Crap, The service is still good, but the Customer Service is horrible, the care for what the customer wants is horrible, yes we have decent phones but they are almost outdated by the time we get them. I F'ing hate ATT , and am probably after all these years gonna switch to verizon. They deserve to lose everything they have, when they no longer care for the customer, unless you have a stupid iphony which is so easy to use, I say it's for simple minded people that wants square holes for square blocks. As far as the TILT 2, I too went from TILT1 to TILT2 , iskipped the fuse because i felt it was a rushed piece of crap. But I have very little complaints about the TILT2 , and after putting on Mobile Shell and deleteing the bloatware it runs smooth. I only hated it took so long to get it. So to Sum it Up i think the TILT2 is a very good phone if you know how to tweak it, and ATT Sucks. I wish Cingular and there Care would come back !
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] djrinc:
I pretty much agree with everyone. Came from a Tilt to a Tilt2 (no such thing as Tilt1 people) and I think it's a big improvement. Yes AT&T sucks, but I don't need them or their customer service. XDA is my customer service! The keyboard is way better and you can't complain about a bigger screen and faster processor (though it's still not fast enough, e.g. HD2). No phone really lives up to it's potential straight from the carriers except possibly Android phones. After a new ROM this phone was definitely a keeper for me. Looking forward to an HD2 or even better an HD3 when available though (1.5Ghz processor, Mmmm!).

How did you remove the bloatware?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kimtyson:
So maybe you just want to get the AT&T folks unified or more public. I just don't understand the purpose of this post.

I am doing fine. Thanks for asking.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kimtyson:
And I bet if you run upstairs out of the basement Momma would tell you more. Go talk to her.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kimtyson:
You click the blue letters in my sig and search for "How did you remove the bloatware". Read the Wiki and the stickies, stay on point of the threads (except that this thread has no point), and read before posting your questions.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bwnotredame06:
go to this page , use file explorer and delete all listed, I didn't do the reg edits but it's had no effect at all on performance. it frees like 50mb and makes your device much faster and smoother. You don't have to delete all, also later you can hard reset and bring them all back if you'd like. I hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jcterry:
Unlike kimtyson, I understand the point of this post... to complain about AT&T and the Tilt2. With that said, I don't know what is supposed to be accomplished by the post (unless AT&T and HTC CEOs read these threads regularly).

For what it's worth, here's my 2 cents (more like a penny). I love my Tilt2. Yeah it's slow sometimes, but the customization abilities can't be beaten thanks to the XDA members that try their best to make it faster rather than complain about it. That is the main reason why I don't have an iPhone. As for AT&T, yes they have thier downfalls (like all of the other cell phone companies do). If those downfalls are unacceptable for you, then quit complaining and change your service provider!! I have thought about leaving, but it's cheaper to stay since almost everyone I know has AT&T and the mobile-to-mobile minutes would be worthless to me elsewhere.

But that is just my humble opinion, I don't expect it to change the world or a major corporation.:rolleyes:

Edit: I'm confused. Should this reply have been added to this thread or the following threads:

Got a replacement ATT Tilt2 today

Is AT&T Tilt 2 a Dog?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nycny:
I am going to try to pull these threads together

When I get on a thing, sometimes my thoughts go down different paths,

so the reason for different posts.

Not a linear thinker.

At my age, mental multitasking is not as easy as it was 25yre. ago.

Still works though.

I think that Tilt2 has some, as yet undiscovered hardware issues.

Don't want to go too far with this at the moment, because, I am not entirely sure what is going on.

Didn't have to stress test replacement very long.

ATT sent a refurb, which on the face of it operated faster than the first one.

Opera 9.5 opened and browsed faster than the original.

Most other function, software operated fairly to very well.

Actually on original Tilt2, a lot of these things worked as well as I was expecting from Windows Mobile.

Replacement, though seemed much more responsive for most general things.

PocketOutlook, fast. ATT.Yahoo.Com email with Opera 9.5, fast.

Internet Explorer 6 faster, still a little slow.

I am not looking for any particular fixes from you folk as yet, just observing and reporting is all.

Long story short, if that is possible.

The piece received as a replacement, after observation was a recycle/refurbish.

Discovered after trying to fit screen protector which didn't fit.

Already had screen protector installed.

On the hardware, slide/tilt mechanism seemed loose/wobbly.

Called ATT support this morning to get some idea what I was sent.

While waiting, put phone on speakerphone/external audio.

Audio speaker phone buzzed briefly, then was silent.

Tried to move back to earphone, no audio.

Similar to most recent hard failure of original piece.

Now I have two Tilt2' with similar hardware failure on audio path.

On the failure path (original phone), for several days before complete failure the original upon receiving email requiring notification. Notification, by default, would be, short vibrate/sound.

Shortly before failure, notification became constant vibrate.

Only stopped by shut-down/restart.

This morning replacement began to fail in the same way, coincident with the other audio/hardware trouble.

I appreciate that you folks are fix it folk.

I am not necessarily wanting to be short with anyone, as far as offering fixes.

Maybe I had not explained myself well enough earlier.

Not necessarily wanting a fix from you for my self.

Just exposing an issue.

I ask the same questions also when trying to trouble shoot equipment problems.

"Is it plugged in Mam/Sir?", sometimes will sound condescending to a customer who call for help.

For the dog lovers, I love and feel close to my pets also.

Sorry.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fone_fanatic:
The only issue i've faced with my tilt 2 is the volume up/down buttons became dislodged then i dropped it one time and they got back in place but now my volume up button doesn't push back, but still works so doesn't bother me that much.

I guess your just having really bad luck. If you bought a new device and received a refurb with the same or worse issues, call back and explain to them that you need a new device because you paid for a new device thats supposed to work, not a refurb replacement.

and thats the best thing i've read in a while here on xda! haha

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] themachineXD:
You seem like the type of person who would have trouble finding his way out of a box. Talk about being as thick as two short planks and far from the brightest star in the sky.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but this site/forums' purposes include development of new features/solutions to perceived shortcomings of our devices' original hardware/software and related discussion. What it is not is a place for mindless banter, stories of isolated defective units or returned merchandise experiences. Those belong, if anywhere, on site such as your carrier, device manufacturer or some product review site. I will offer some advice to you though... If you are unhappy overall with your device, carriers give you the courtesy of 30 days to decide if you are satisfied with the item you purchased during which you can return/exchange it without obligation. For you I would think anything besides an old rotary phone would be a challenge.

By the way, the only thing you've exposed is your lack of ever having an intelligent thought.

Since this (admittedly misguided) thread was already hijacked - I'd like to take the opportunity to take it further off course.

Boy - that Kim sure has a 'tude, eh? I respect the fact that he/she has 10x as many posts as someone like me. I respect the effort he/she puts in and I can totally understand getting annoyed with the same old thread-starters that can't be bothered to search for an answer before asking it again and again ad nauseum.

I don't, however, think that gives you the right to belittle people or to make them feel stupid for asking a question. Not everyone has the same tech-savvy that you apparently do - and even tasks that seem totally inane to us like performing a search may not be as straight forward to others.

In other words - why not just a friendly minder - why the mud-in-the-face snippy response? Life is far too short to get all riled up - especially about a forum. About phones. And a post. About a problem.

Just my .02 worth.

For the record, in answer to the original poster - I just got my T2 from AT&T and absolutely LOVE this phone. In terms of responsiveness, I had a really lean ROM on my fuze so that didn't change much if at all. But the screen and keyboard make it FULLY worth it to me.

I guess, I just got two lemons in a row and kind of ticked off.

(Hope I haven't pissed off any lemon lovers)

I don't really like being an early adopter (beta tester) of anything

I need to rely on.

I was seduced by the sexy of this phone.

I really like it though, I guess that is why I was so annoyed.

Looking back at some of the old Kaiser forums and reviewed how in the beginning everyone was so happy, until the new started to wear off.

Those folk went through a lot of changes and griping, and finally got the Kaiser issues worked out to the point folks were satisfied.

I was one of them. Loved my ATT Tilt also.

With any new product, it takes awhile before it gets better.

Again

Thanks

Nice pic and nice dog too. Cute ARs'.

I like dogs too.

A good dog and a good AR are probably all a man needs as good friends.

A pack of dogs is probably better than one for personal defense.

It was a rhetorical question.

Of all the PDAs I have owned this one so far is the best one.

Spent quite a bit of money and time along the way.

Through Casio, Dell, Toshiba, HPaq, HTC Kaiser(Tilt), and now Tilt2.

Granted all have had some problems.

And a lot of disappointment with MS and service providers

not producing fixes, updates.

Some got fixed and some had to live with.

This one is fixed for now.

I am keeping it and learn to live with it.

I love my dog

Thanks
