I managed to reproduce the problem and (thankfully) it has nothing to do with my work's exchange server.

It seems that Swype2 (cab version) doesn't play nice with the PIN, wifi settings, mail accounts (and who knows what else)...

I tried a few things and everything was working perfectly until Swype was installed and the device was soft-reset. After that happened the phone could not be unlocked with the correct pin at all.

Hard-Reset, and reconfigured the phone, installed Swype again and this time had PIN lock switched off so as not to get messed up. When the phone booted the WiFi settings were lost as were most of the settings for my mail accounts (I could get them to work by playing around a little).

The problem doesn't seem to be present (at least not for me anyway) on 219XX builds.

It seems to happen on all 6.5.3 and 6.5.5 builds though, at least the ones I have tried - the only time it hasn't been an issue on these builds is when Swype has been cooked in (*hint hint*)

I've been doing some googling, and I may have misread this but from what I can gather Swype2 has some build in checks to make sure you have a T-Mobile HD2. The cab overwrites the modelid to make it appear that we have a T-Mobile. When the modelid is overwritten you lose a lot of your settings, including the 4 digit pin...

I'm assuming that installing Swype first and then setting up the PIN would be fine :)

In summary, I think the reason that I've noticed this issue in some ROMs (such as yours) is because some others come with Swype already cooked in to the ROM and therefore it's not causing any issues by installing it. Happy days and I can now get to appreciate your ROM fully!

Thanks for checking this issue out and my apologies for writing so much - I ramble when I'm tired :p

Edit:

Gotta love XDA Devs... Everyone seems to know about this being an existing issue... except me :D

Battery Life?

I have noticed that since installing the latest full distribution of the ROM, my battery has been draining itself way too fast. We're talking 36hours in which i don't use the phone. Its just with a shut down screen and standing. No calls, no applications - nothing. Still the phone needs a recharge every two days max.

Does anyone else experience these issues?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hi mate,

I dont have experienced this at all with my phone, I have been using it on vacation and had a stand-by time of one and a half week.

Did you do a task29 before flashing?

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
Task29?

Slap me - i have no idea what that is...

EDIT: Found out what it is, did it, now reinstalling the ROM. Let's hope this helps and thanks for the answer!

EDIT 2: After testing it i found out that nothing had changed. It would seem using my phone's 3G sucks the battery dry (it's never off). I will try to shut it down whenever i don't need it. Seems the only way.

EDIT 3: Well doesn't seem to do much...My battery is still not lasting more than 3 days...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
What radio are you using?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dlotters:
What I'd give for 3 days... I get almost 2 days from this ROM, which is more than I got from plenty of others - I'm actually happy with about 2 days :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Besides the Radio version, what recharge cycle do you have? How have you setup you backlight etc?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] criszz:
where is the download link ??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
I use Leo_Radio_2.08.50.08_2

I haven't modified my backlight since the HD2 is supposed to adjust itself (as far as i know) depending on the light.

I recharge it at around 5% charge left - every 3 days now.

Download link : http://wiki.celogeek.com/windows/mobile/roms/htc/hd/epiphanynl
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
I use radio 2.10.50.08_2 works great for me! Maybe you could try it?

Try modifying your backlight, it should give you some extra battery life. Also I could recommend discharging the phone a few time and then charging it to 80% or something, charge it in the wall outlet.

But besides the 3 days, how is de ROM?

Update: I am currently working on a new release again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jaydilla:
problems with radio

Any known issues with not being able to get any 3G or H connection? I am able to go through the setup but never seem to be able to connect. I have used radios 2.10 and 2.12 with no luck.

Just to note, I am a 'flasher' so I flash reguarly and never had any issues here nad actually flashed to another few ROMs to test and everything is fine.

any ideas? everything else is working great.

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
Ok , changed to 2.10.50.08_2!

Let's hope it helps me with my short battery life.

Now about the rom - everything in it is awesome. Till now i didn't manage to find anything i didn't like. The Rom is fast, beautiful and masculine. The indications are understandable, the battery is shown in percent...Nothing to complain about.

It's the best rom out there and i have tried quite a few - but since the first time i saw it, i haven't even considered another one.

However i am not sure if the 3G works. It indicates that it does, but the connection is slow. Maybe it's just me, but the dude from above might be right.

Thank you for the Rom chef - unless the next one offers something really good, i don't think i will upgrade, cause i kinda like this one and i've already installed all the stuff i need...but then again, pretty much every new one was better than the previous one, so i might not be able to resist my curiosity...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hmm I havent had any of these problems, I can connect through 3G an H, I am about to upload the New ROM, it's faster in 3g and H connection with my tests.

I assume you havent changed anything before you started your tests?

Cool thanks mate! Hope the new radio helps a little.

I think it might be worth it to try the new ROM, it is faster and internet connections are quicker.

V4.2 available

Hi!

V4.2 Full is uploaded! Bonapetit!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] anaadoul:
Stuck at 99% when flashing, it seems that the file is corrupted :(

From what i'm reading, this rom is Awesome, can't wait for the file to be reuploaded :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Try a flash from SD, works that way.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
@Everyone: V4.2_Full is uploaded again, works with USB flash now again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] anaadoul:
mate, your rom is awesome

unfortunately i have a problem with it :(

I use Seven for my corporate email and it is not compatible with HTC Messaging!

I love the ROM, hate the messaging. I will defenitly use a ROM from you without HTC messaging.

I hope you get time to cook one for us (non-htc-messaging-fans) :D

Great work
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
I will upload the Basic version of the ROM after the weekend. Without the Messaging client :)

Cheers.

Missing???Hi Epi!

Really love this ROM except for 2 things. Where do we enter the "Owner Information"? It's needed for a lot of registrations. And where's the "Screen" settings? I want to adjust the size of fonts on my screen...

From my point of view, the lockscreen in the Elegancia ROM is more nice since it has the next calendar appointment on the screen. Only if it's today or tomorrow :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hi,

Concerning the Owner Information read the following topic:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=661803

As for the lockscreen, I don't know how to modificate it so it displays an appointment longer then one day in front..

You could try obtaining the LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr from the elegancia ROM, might help me find a solution.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
V4.2 Basic ROM is up NOW, come and get it while it's still hot!

For details on it see first post or my weblog.

Beta 2 of the Lite version is also uploaded now!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
At last I found a bug

After several hours I managed to find a bug in Carnage, (and what causes it). If I disable the Sense screen (I don't like it anyway and never use it), the menus in all program pop up with extremely small fonts (8 or so).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
hi, this is due to the ROM design, you can adjust font size in settings.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
The place from the Sense? I've tried that with no luck.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
No just in settings>system>screen> text size, but that doesnt help. I believe it has to do with a mod to make menu's smaller.

If you dont use Sense, maybe the Lite version of Carnage is something for you by the way
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
I'll give it a try because I love this ROM :) But is it still beta? And I can't remember where I can enable the PPC to charge while connecting via USB. Nothing happens so I suppose.... Any clue?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Yes the Lite ROM is still Beta, because I'm not able to flash and test it (since I do like sense a lot and use my phone for daily operations), but it should still be good. Same base as the full and basic ROM.

If you want to set the HD2 to charge whilst connected to USB, goto settings>System>Power>Battery and untick the check.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
I'll try the Beta 2 then... Downloading now... WOW I'M THE FIRST ON BETA2

Just found it in the Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Cool, Im interested to hear your findings!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
Carnage Lite Beta2

As in "Full" the menus has those tiny fonts. Even after text size in settings. I had to install the CAB you provided. (Owner Information is also missing).

Pressing powerbutton for long time does'nt bring up anything.

No lockscreen installed.

No FM radio or Camera.

And the keyboard is aas far from fingerfriendly as you can get. There's no stylus with HD2 you know :)))))
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hi mate,

Thanks for the feedback. I will upload

a 3rd beta tomorrow.

Hope you can still enjoy the ROM
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] anaadoul:
Mate, your ROM is confusing! i donwloaded the Basic and it has the RUU but get's stuck at 99%

im flashing using SD now, will report later :)

This ROM is smother than cream or butter!

I wish it continues to behave the same after few days, i'm really optimistic :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Yeah there seems to be something with the RUU creation of OSkitchen, havent been able to put my finger on it yet.

Im happy you managed to flash it and are happy you are optimistic about it :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
Carnage Lite Beta3

For me this is going to be the best so I will definitely continue to test :)

​

As in "Full" the menus has those tiny fonts. Even after text size in settings.

Not fixed.

Pressing powerbutton for long time does'nt bring up anything.

OK!

No lockscreen installed.

Not fixed. Meaning when you make a press on the powerbutton to turn it off, it just starts with the today-screen, not the locked screen with clock.

No FM radio or Camera.

OK.

Keyboard.

Ok.

Owner information and Screen settings.

Ok!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Concerning the text in menu's I havent really found a solution for it, since I'm afraid it has to do with the WM build :(

The lockscreen you can activate in start menu. I will look for the registry setting to enable it on device suspend
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
Sorry mate. The only way to activate it is to set a password as well. That's not what I meant. I want it to be just like in the full version. Power off and off and you get the sliderscreen without any password.

Suggestions to the Action-screen

1. Softreset

2. Power off

3. Data connection On/Off

4. Get e-mail

5. Bluetooth On/Off

6. WiFI On/Off

7. Flightmode

8. Cancel

I'd also love to see it as 8 bars instead of those glossy squares :D

The date in the lockscreen/clock, should follow the long date format with the dayname in front and be more white/readable (Little bigger fonts)?

In that case it will say Tirsdag 27 jul 2010 on my phone.

And maybe PIM Backup and Advancd Configuration Settings should be in ROM as standard? That goes for all ROMs of course.

Think I'll look at 4.3 fill while you are diving into that font issue :)

AT LEAST WHEN I FIND IT! WHERE'S THE LINK. IT'S STILL 4.2 :eek::eek::confused::confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hi,

I havent made the actionscreen, but I will have a look at it soon.

For the lockscreen to enable on suspend you can use this cab

I do not include advanced config tool because it overrides some of my own settigns, and PIM backup I dont use because of problems it may cause with slowing the phone down.

Haha, you are too quick mate, I'm already updating the thread, but havent uploaded V4.3 yet. Still testing the basic release, after that will upload it and after that, will start work on full version. They will be released today.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] leseesel:
I know it's not you. Just a suggestion from my point of view ;)

QUE? Too fast. It's several hours by now. First you upload, then you update the post :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
I will look at it after the 4.3 Releases, but not sure if I will be able to do it right..

LOL you know how much work it is to update everything? ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] silverwind:
So, should we wait for 4.3 or just flash 4.2?

Cheers...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
I'd wait for V4.3, just finishing up works on it! In the meantime see the first page for screenshots on V4.3 full :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hi all,

V4.3 Full and Basic are uploaded!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] anaadoul:
Mate, i cannot keep up. i used to flash twice a day but now i'm so busy!

Awesome ROM so far, not a single problem except for a small glitch. I use a BT Headset, bluetooth is on but no icon on the top bar that indicates it's on :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Sorry mate, it's gonna be the last in quite some time, not much to update to.. I just wanted to make a release with the new Chainfire turbo 3d driver and some fixes.

What icon doenst appear? The BT on icon or BT headset icon?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
I have a very strange problem with the last two versions of the rom. For some reason i can't make my phone vibrate when receaving a call. And the only way to make a new ringtone is to choose the file and "set as ringtone" feature. Adding it to the Ringtone folder in the Windows directory or into the My Documents does not make it appear in the sound options. Any idea how to fix that?

I also did a Task29 before flashing.

PS. Love the new punisher skull theme! I've said it many time, i'll say it again - the most masculine rom out there!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] carlos_polanco:
Using full version 4.3

Please put in automatic the band on GSM/UMTS Services... At first I was flashing diffeternt Radios 'cause I didnt have signal!!!

And something else: In order to change the Homescreen wallpaper [I'm sorry man but I hate your background :$]

I had to go to CHT Editor: Miscellanium Settings-Wallpaper Mode and select Regular...

Please fix this in further versions :)

Other than that, nice ROM!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hi mate,

I have been trying to reproduce the problems you describe but I can't what version are you running? (full/basic), what apps do you have installed etc?

Yeah love the skull myself too :) cant stop looking at the phone

I dont get the not having signal, the ROM is set to go automatic to GSM/UMTS so I really dont understand what you mean.

To change the Homescreen wallpaper you need to install a HDwall paper, it is by default that you can set a Regular wallpaper, or by installing another HDWall paper, you can overwrite the default one..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
I always use the full version. It's very strange - i seem to have a ringtone which i had placed before updating. The phone remembers what i had in before. It's like the whole thing froze there...In any case like i said - i did run task29 and i formatted the card so i am quite confused.

I have no idea what causes it.

This was the same with the previous rom version too. It's not the end of the world but i does piss me off. I thought it was a rom bug, but the more i think about it, the more i realize it might be something specific to my case. What really confuses me is how this can be possible since i did run Task29!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Did you test it with a freshly flashed ROM aswel? And then applying all your settings/tweaks/software afterwards?

It is very strange I will see if I can reproduce it, I will flash the basic version tomorrow (I hope).

EDIT: Something just struck me, how are you trying to set the Ringtone? Through sense or through the default MS app?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
Well i tried to just copy it in the Windows/ringtones directory and then select it through Settings / Sounds and Notifications - Didn't work.

The only way it works is if i directly select an mp3 and "set as ringtone" it, but then i can't make it vibrate as well since the Sounds and Notifications still don't recognise the change, though the actuall ringtone has changed.

EDIT. I tried a Hard reset - didn't work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Try to set it through Sense settings> Sound & display.

If you want to set the Rintone under Settings / Sounds and Notifications you need to copy the ringtone file to your windows folder. See if that helps any :) I recommend to use the sense settings tab if you use sense. Set vibration there and the ringtone and everything works fine!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
Nope - as i've said - the stuff i put in the Windows/Ringtones directory is not being recognised. Now the funny thing is i've found the solution of the problem and it's a strange one indeed - instead i have to put the ringtones in my SD Card's My Documents folder. I have a Folder i call "My Documents" where i store ebook and stuff and for some reason my HD2 loves is and only considers the stuff i put in there.

Well at least i've found the problem. I wonder if there is a way to adjust it to look into the correct directory again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Ok but what if you put your ringtone directly into the windows folder instead of windows\rings (or ringtones)? I tested it and it works like a charm for me..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nino_Z:
The fact of the matter is - the Start Menu -> Settings -> Sounds and Notifications

doesn't see to work for me. I've found out the only way to adjust my ringtone and vibration settings is to use the sliding taskbar to the right corner (settings) , choose Sound and Display from there and adjust the stuff. Strange, no idea why this happened.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
I have the same, but if I place my ringtone in the \windows folder (just in the root of the windows folder) and go to Start Menu -> Settings -> Sounds and Notifications I can set the ringtone there

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
Hi EpiphanyNL!

Glad to have you back with a freshly cooked ROM.

First of all THANK YOU for listening to user requests! I see that you have included the new dialer that shows user picture icons, but still kept the ROM fast and clean. :)

However, there is a glitch with the dialer that I have been facing for many months now. This bug is also making the screen to become empty when receiving an incoming call. Take a look at the attached pictures... Hope you can find a solution.

What I have also noted that the problem with first splash screen is still present (the dark ribbon at the botton). Also, the preset settings for backlight are too low - I almost thought the my phone went dead as I was outside the house and couldn't see the screen at all. And one more, manilla cannot restart after making modification to it (i.e. customizing tabs, wallpaper). Only a soft reset helps.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Hi GuzuGuzu

Thank you for the report, I see you are using the basic version of the ROM. I have no idea though what is causing the bug with the dialer. As I didnt experience anything like this, I receive calls everyday, and they always work fine for me.

At what point does this bug appear? What apps, mods etc have you done and installed?
