Quick Q guyz, can any of you point out the link for the Cab which gets the "Slide to unlock" to the bottom of the screen?

I have been using the Dusk cab for that all this while, but when I install that cab on Leo's ROM, I am loosing the feedback on the QWERTY keypad. This only happens to me on Tom's and Leo's ROMs.

So, if any of you can give me another cab which does not do this, I would highly appreciate that.

I love the look and feel of this ROM and would like to use it. But the key press vibrations are a must for me. Got used to it and cannot live with out that.

Thanks for all your help.

Battery drain

Finally found the solution for my problem. I have a 16G sd card with a lot of files on it (word, excel,... back up from work).

When you go to the document reader tab it takes a long time before to load and if you go in you can see that it keeps searching for files (if you go in to: recent, name,...). This continues also in the background.

In the first ROM with document tab (I do not know what manilla or base but it was Dutty 0.7 or 0.8) this wasn't the case. Also the tab was launched quickly, now it searches for a long time.

My battery drain is gone when I remove the sd card. Then the document tab says: no sd card and does not search.

also strange that you need an sd card before the document tab works?

Can annyone confirm this?

The base I did found at the below link also in this ROM section:

Extreme battery usage with non-official ROMs

Laurentius,

could you check this please and confirm?

For the moment I will take out the sd card at night but it is just a temporary solution...

Anyone a solution?

Thanks in advance

See Leo's first post:

Tweaks applied:

A heavy patched XIP for more rom speed

Opera with Zoomslider and more tabs

HTC Album real closes to save mem

Dialerpad no keypress sounds

Ezinput no haptic feedback

Several camera tweaks

Many more I can't remember
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] VizagDude:
Oops... I am blind. I should have read through this. I guess now the request goes out to Leo...

Leo, is there a way I can enable the haptic feedback?

thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Laurentius26:
You need to change the following registry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ezsip]

"VibrationEnabled"=dword:00000000

Change it to 1 and you will have haptic feedback on the keyboard.

I don't like it and it eats battery that's why I've disabled it. ;)

You can use Dotfred's Taskmanager included (start menu/Tools) it contains a registry editor as well.

Grtz Leo :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Laurentius26:
That's awsom news.

I've looked in the registry of document tab to see if something is set to auto but couldn't find atm.

The only reg you can try to change is:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\WESTTEK\Westtek6Common]

"TempDirOnFlash"=dword:1

Maybe you can set it to 0 but it's a wild ques atm.

I'm going to investigate if I can find something.

Thanks Peter :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] peterkef:
Ok, I will try the registery change. First I'm formatting my sd card to see if everything is ok with it.

Then I will try the registery change.

The whole thing will take me an other 30 minutes. I'll report back.

when this is solved it will be time for V3.0... :)

documen tab & battery drain

Hi Laurentius,

I tried the registry key but this does not solve the issue. When you go into the document tab the screen is stuck on: loading...

This continues in the background and is causing the drain.

Can someone else confirm this?

Is this a general issue?

I did format my sd card but this is not solving the issue. Also using a blanc sd card gives the same result: document tab is stuck on loading...

Thanks for your reports back...

Dailer in landscape while opening phone app?

I have used this rom now for a few days and I am still SO impressed. Laurentius, thanks for all the efforts! I really haven't found any major bug in the rom... great!

However, I have a small question: I made Manilla landscape enabled as I have already described in the above quote. This really works well, also in combination with other applications I have added to the list using BSB tweaks. But there is only one application that has some troubles while being in landscape already: the phone dialer. What happens: I have added the phone dialer application to the list using BSB. If I am in the phone dialer in portrait and then turn the phone to landscape it works perfectly and layout is perfectly in landscape (and visa versa). However, if I am in landscape already in for instance the home tab (as I use it in the car) and in this orientation I open the phone dialer application, it will pop up in portrait mode (and loads very long!) and forces the HD2 into portrait mode for all other applications (including sense).

Does anybody have a clue how to fix this, and have the dailer opened in landscape if the device is in landscape orientation?! Really, this is the ONLY problem I currently face .... Thanks!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Gellenole:
I got a problem -- i'm not sure if this is a bug, but I cannot access any buttons on the screen when I call out

-- I cannot enable speaker

-- I cannot enable mute

-- I cannot add call

-- I cannot put the call on hold

-- I cannot hit the buttons under keypad and end call or any of those keys, the screen is literally unresponsive, I have to press the physical button to hang up.

I'm not sure what's going on. this is one of your older roms, I think I downloaded this rom on 2/18

If anyone has an answer please let me know, I would like to have these re-enabled. the screen doesn't respond to any of the presses.

if I slide around the end call or keypad I kinda get a response, but it's seldom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mskip:
I think you enabled the tap time mod in bsb tweaks. Disable that mod and restart your phone and it should work perfectly again.

this morning after a night without sd card: -2%.

perdect result.

sd card back in and drain starts again: 5% in 6 minutes.

i did already formatted my sd.

could it be a broken sd?

any help to solve this?

In my opinion it is the documen tab that keeps searching for documents...

thanks in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ardsar:
There are many posts on the forum discussing issues with certian make 16Gig cards. You have already tried formating it, not sure what else you can do. This issue is present on stock ROM's also and its something HTC need to resolve.

Have you tried turning off the documents tab?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] arbee67:
Yes,but not with Dutch(Nederland) settings

Dus helaas niet als ik de instellingen op nederlands heb.

Verder trouwens superROM.

Ben net van mijn X1 naar HD2 overgestapten heb even zitten klooien met de HSPL maar dat is opgelost.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ardsar:
try changing your local settings to UK, change to 24Hr format, then change your locale setting back to Nederland......

Hey master Leo,

When can we expect v3.0 !!!

Can't wait to try it out
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Troxelke:
Hi Leo, thanks for your efforts to check this issue out... I have tried to look into the registry but unfortunately no luck. But as the dialer can be shown in landscape (by starting from portrait, then activate dialer and then rotate device), it should be possible to get the dialer in landscape by just opening it as the device is in landscape ... strange :)

Well, I will keep on searching myself, and hope for a solution :)! Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Gellenole:
funny thing, I did that and it didn't work. I have to slide my fingers across the buttons in order for this to work at this time. I'm stick to that, as long as the buttons are not bugged i'm okay.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mskip:
Do you have any mods installed or does the dialer screen freeze on a fresh flash? Maybe try a hard reset to check it out.

Mark.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Laurentius26:
I have no idea yet, we still have some testing and work todo ;)

Thanks :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Gellenole:
I do have some mods as far as the home screen, and games -- but they are all just cabs.

Don't think a fresh flash would do it because this is the only flash I did, the screen doesn't freeze, but it just takes my finger to slide across for the buttons to actually respond.

i'm big fan of Laurentius26 roms. Been a big supporter since tilt.

it's okay though I can stand it for now, as long as it's accessible I can deal.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Laurentius26:
Hi,

There's no problem with the dialer and I'm sure it will work ok without the cabs you talk about.

You can't say they are 'all just cabs' as they contain files and registry which modify the rom.

A fresh flash or hardreset will 100% fix your issue.

Let me remind you what I have written at romintro page 1 of this thread.

Grtz Leo ;)

battery drain

this is driving me crazy.

I even bought a new sd card and disabled the document tab.

still battery drain. without sd: no battery drain.

I tried the schapps's advance, turned of all syncro... still battery drain...

I hope a solution will come.

I still believe the document tab is responsable for this.

do you have a 16G sd card in your hd2?

Phone pad rotate.......

well..... if you want landscape........ you may either ratate it manually with the Rotate iT! icon,

Or, please do the following 2 steps.....

1. install this cab ( for rotation enabling and adding a rotate icon in the program folder, and prevent from blank screen after rotate the home (sense) screen,

2. in BSB tweaks, tap menu >>> Rotation and then add any program you wanna have then rotate while twisting your device (e.g. Start (Manila), Start (MSStartmenu) and Phone, :)

ok, then you should get what you want~~ :)

battery drain with 16gig cards have been reported many times on this forum- i told u that in a previous post. it is not down to this rom. i use an 8gig and never had a battery drain issue.

I have 16gb card,

and I have no issue with battery, in fact I left the phone without charge for nearly 3 days.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Troxelke:
Hi dioxda2, thanks for your help, but actually your suggestion does not solve my problem! Actually I already found out to get everything in landscape ... that is actually not the problem ... but the dialer does not recognize the landscape if the device IS already in landscape before activating it.

In other words, If I now activate the dialer in portrait orientation and then rotate the device it WILL automatically go to landscape ... but if the device is in landscape mode already (as it is in my car holder) ... then the dialer does NOT recognize landscape if I activate it ... and then it forces the rest of the programs (as sense) also in portrait. Only solution then is to rotate back to portrait and then back to landscape orientation to let the device "understand" that it has to show everything in portrait.... So in summary ... the dialer only recognizes the landscape if I physically rotate the device ... but not if it is already in landscape.

I hope you understand, and evenmore hope you have a solution :)! Thanks :)

icons default back after change

Hey Spike and Laurentius, I hope you can help me.

I'm giving this ROM a shot. I have to see what all the fuss is about. :)

I've already flashed it and decided the icons look great in the start menu but on my front screen, I don't like anything too attention grabbing so decided to try changing the icons for the shortcuts that would be placed on my quicklinks. Well using JWMD Icon Changer I changed the few I wanted as quicklinks, reset the phone and noticed that they have changed, but only within the start menu. The Sense home screen's quicklinks continue to show Spike's new stock ones. I've soft reset three times in total and tried changing twice, but still I can't get the quicklinks to show the new icon change, only the start menu icons.

Please and thanks guys.

The batt live is outstanding with this ROM

Hey There,

This is so wierd...

There must be a enduser installed program that do this batt drain.

Just flash the rom and let it default... run it a day.

If this is not working try a other rom...

It is a installed program or your batt is bad.

Grtz,
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] peterkef:
Thanks for the advice.

But if I take out the card: no drain

If I use 2G SD: No drain (programs installed)

16G SD in: Drain

I did reformat the card; used MTTY; 2 HArdreset after flash and in a rom based on 1,66 or 2,07 this was not happening. So I think it is something with the 2,10 base.

SO it is not battery or 3th party app.

Strang :confused::confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Laurentius26:
Hi Peter,

This rom is not 2.10 base but 1.66.

It's your 16gb sdcard what is giving problems.

For you it drains the battery but there are other people with a 16gb card who don't have the battery drain.

This is confirmed many times now.

Sorry friend but I can't help you atm.

Grtz Leo

Edit; one last option for you to try.

Maybe you can remove all documents from your storage card (you talked about it earlier)

and see if it's the documents tab that is causing the battery drain you have.

I would like to know which brand you use (16 GB SDHC)?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] achris2000:
microSD Speed Classes

There are 3 speed classes for speed and performance of SD/SDHC cards. The SD Speed Class Ratings specify a minimum sustained write speed for SDHC cards.

Class 2: 2 MB/s

Class 4: 4 MB/s

Class 6: 6 MB/s

You can look for the Speed Class Logo to identify the performance class of your memory card.

Your 16GB microSD Card is probably Class 2. That means, writing takes 3 times longer than with a Class 6 card, which means quicker battery discharge.

You should also check for memory resident programs that you installed on the Card, and move them to the device memory. Otherwise there is continuous access of the CPU to the card, which causes discharge.

Log battery consumption using several programs like TBattery or PowerGuard.

First of all I'd like to thank you Laurentius26 and his team for make a nice rom for us! Really nice work especially the new icon design :)

Just want to share some thing will you all that I've experience the "hot" problem regarding the radio version. (compare with my original radio of HTC original 1.48 rom come with).

After I flash another radio Leo_RADIO_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08 **(from TMOUS 2.09), the problem is gone and work like a charm! Maybe someone can try it out if still have the "hot" problem!

But I've found a tiny question that the "quickgps" always pop up when I connect to my pc through the "window mobile device center", whatever I tick/ untick any choices from the quickgps, it's still pop up? Is there any way I can stop this and make it work like before (silence download at background when I connect to pc)??

Yo Laurentius,

i really like your ROM but i have a pretty anoying problem.

I have your rom and tweaked it a bit with BSB Tweaks but further not any special changes so far. But for like since 4 days, when i recieve a SMS message i don't hear a sound or either it vibrates. I searched for it in the settings but it's all good. So do you know what the problem could be? I allready did a hard reset...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mskip:
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE!!

It has come to my attention that there are ALOT of postings about excessive battery drain using this Rom and it is starting to cause a mess in the thread.

The problem of excessive battery drain is NOT a specific Rom related problem as people using custom and stock Roms are experiencing the same problems. All Leo's Roms are thoroughly tested by a dedicated team of people who use and test the rom over a period of time to find and fix any problems before it gets released publicly and no battery related problems were reported by anyone.

If you are experiencing excessive battery problems please try any or all of the following steps:

Try flashing a different Radio as they can make a huge difference to battery drain depending on your location.

Hard Reset the phone and run the Rom for at least 48 hours with NO mods and NO 3rd party apps isntalled which could be causing problems.

Flash a Stock 1.66 Rom from *HERE* or from another source and run it for a period of time to compare battery loss against your original Rom.

Use MTTY to format your phone as over a period of time and flashing Roms over and over bugs can start to appear even after a fresh flash. Using this method is like formatting your pc before installing a new operating system, it will give you a completely clean base to flash your rom on.

If you still have problems then post your battery related problem *HERE* so it can be dealt with better.

If anymore excessive battery related posts are noticed in this thread then warnings may have to be given out as custom rom threads need to be kept clean so that people can easily search it. This is a great rom so lets keep the posts constructive people.

Thank you.
