Thanks for the awesome work on these Rom's Smaburg, easily the best in my opinion. Donated you a beer or two the other day!

Now, one small problem I've had over the last 2/3 versions (2nd half of March) is that sometimes after a reset (and without changing any settings) the Cookies Home Tab seems to loose its settings and the home tab stops working.

See attached pic, the page selector behaves like it has no pages? And the quicklinks ahve disappeared (if I swipe up the page is empty, no outlines of quicklinks either).

If I screw about with CHTEditor and reset a couple of times it comes back, but it happens seemingly at random, is quite irritating and I can't find a particular setting that brings it back again!

Anyone had/have this or know what I'm doing wrong?

PS. I didn't post this directly in the CHT thread because it didn't always happen to me with Touch-X, just last few weeks. Happy to post it over there if no one else is experiencing this.

i sometimes lose contacts on the cookies not the prog links after a reset tho it seems to be a random occurence
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] crispy514:
Any other apps installed? could be some other mod interfering....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Uvaavu:
Quite a lot, i use Sashimi to automate my post-flash installs, and theres alot of htings in there, though I don;t think I've added anything new in the last month.

I'll start by re-flashing afresh and removing any manilla mods i guess. Didn't want to have to go through that if I could help it heh.

Data connection

Hi Smaberg, first of all.... great ROM!

Because of your great battery life, I decide to enable gmail push service.

Works very good.

But when I make a telephone call, data connection goes down and HD2 start searching for a wifi connection.

Is a normal behaviour?

Please consider to enable auto rotation for office programs (word, excel, acrobat....) and for facebook client.

thanks in advance for your reply.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Latz:
Hey Great ROM thanks very much!

Can't get access to my Outlook calendar though, can't seem to find the icon for it!!!!

I can get access to the HTC one but this does not sync with my exchange server - any ideas?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dbtomas:
I use "ChangeScreen". I rotate so I only what I want, and it works great. ;)

Word, acrobat, TomTom ecc.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] smaberg:
using wrong radio, use 2.09 or other.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] lzyla:
!!! Can't wait for the newest version! :-)

I didn't HARDSPL my phone yet so I cannot change radios...

Any chances to see it working with 2.07.51.05_2 RADIO ?

Or should I hardspl ?

CFC compressed?

Hey smaberg, absolutley love your roms!! They are the best!!

I just would like to ask whether they are cfc compressed or uncompressed?

Can anybody tell me?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mh7:
Rom is very nice

fast and smooth :D

but i notes 2 things

1- its not requesting sim-card pin code every restart till i press dial button

2- rom draining battery comparing with 23549 :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] padlad:
All good so far ;) great ROM, many thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] deho:
Smaberg i allready asked this question yesterday , nobody replied , so I will ask one more time.. Is there a way to uninstall swype???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
As it is most likely cooked into the rom - No. If it's not in the Remove Programs list then it can't be removed.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] deho:
thanks !!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jfmckenna:
Swype

Want to start off thanking you for this great rom i have been using the stock tmous rom, then i tried duttys, and yours is just incredible!

so anyway i guess due to the bigger bar on the bottom when the Swype keyboard pops up its not properly aligned, no biggie just wondering if there was something simple we could do to raise the keyboard flush over the bottom buttons. Thanks for this wonderful rom!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] achok:
facebook album - now works

thanks smaberg. i can confirm swapping radio rom fixed the issue.

expect a donation.

thanks again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g0nadz:
a few things I have noticed:

if I use lets say calendar in-call and then put the phone back to my ear it won't turn off the display. after call the phone menu will jump up and down and pressing any of the soft-keys has no effect, I have to press the end hard-key and go through lockscreen to be able to use the menus again. it's like my ear pressed against the phone moves the menu a million times and it has to go through all the movements before I can use it again.

also is there a good app to lock the hard-keys on an incoming call as I keep pressing them when I take the phone out of my pocket. I tried pocketshield 3.2.9 but it's not doing the trick. also it's a real drag to configure, whoever coded it didn't think of user friendlines... tons of problems when using a bluetooth headset too, after a call it won't lock the phone again and I get tons of apps open or it calls in my pocket...or hangs the call if I move my legs.

will you be including opera 10 in your new build ?

also what is the app called that you have cooked in under the longpress end-key ?

cheers and keep up the good work !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dbtomas:
Hey Smaberg

Today ny version of:

MMTaskManager 1.5.100407

ArkSwitch 1.1.4
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
Hey there,

I guess your problem arises with the Mods.. Cookie's home tab editor is a home screen mod, so please don't use it with other home screen mods (or try a bit of trial and error) cuz chances are they don't fit well together. And you use a program to automate your installs right? (or was it some other person in some post after yours :o ... but any way does it use "fresh" installs or loads from a backup you made before (SPrite backup does that).. if its the latter then again not advised as it might backup old setting and registry entries which maybe conflicting.

Best thing for you to try, do a Task 29.. then re install this ROM again and try it out. and this time try loading all your programs your self one cab at a time. with no Home tab Mods! and see if you have the problem. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
Use the SIP selector included with the ROM, choose any other keyboard to showup every time you restart the phone.

OR .. I'm just thinking try the following. get hold of a cabbed Swype and install it in your phone memory.. now naturally the new files will replace the cooked in files. Perform a soft reset, make sure Swype is not selected as the default keyboard and then go and uninstall swype from the add remove programs. Now as windows phone don't make backups to roll back to original files once you uninstall something (or do they:confused: ), chances are Swype will be gone from the ROM.. I'm not trying it on my phone, so please do leave a message if this works. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
BSB Tweaks is provided in the ROM under Tools folder, use it to enable auto rotation in any program you want.

You know what I think, I wish there was a tweak where we could actually control the degree of rotation as when to activate auto rotation.. like if the phone "senses" a rotation of 180 degrees then only it should turn or some thing like that... cuz whenever I'm in bed and writing a message while lying down, the phone just rotates even on a slight tilt, which can be annoying at times when it rotates JUST when i reach out to press a button, and end up pressing the wrong one instead. Or maybe that just clumsy ol' me! :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
You know what would be really cool? a wire with a micro USB at one end going into the phone, and a normal USB female receiver on the other end, where you can just plug in your average flash drive on the go and copy stuff from or to the phone from your flash drive! now wouldn't that be really really cool!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Uvaavu:
Yeah, it was me that also uses an auto installer (SASHIMI). It does each item manually though, no kind of backup restore or anything, separating them into Main memory & Storage Card. Any Manilla mods I have go into main memory.

I'll have to try a re-flash as you suggest, was just trying to avoid it till Smaberg released the next version of Touch-X ;)

Just frustrating its all so random! Will work fine for 3 days, then suddenly I lose all my quicklinks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] padlad:
Text input

I have a problem with text input with the HTC keyboard, if i am typing out a message, more often than not, pressing the space bar does not register and i get one long word, its as if the keyboard cannot keep up with my typing (and i am not the fastest typer in the world either). I have a sneaky suspicion it has something to do with cookie home tab. Can anyone shed some light on this? Many thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] D.u.c:
Hi, I have spotted the service My Location isn't working so well. If I click on Update Now, it just show "My Location" not the name of the city. So what's the solution?

ROM 23554

(RAM576MB) - Radio 2.08

(the europe version of HD2)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tsmadm:
Outlook HTML email

I am trying to set outlook to download email in html format. The setting in the email options is set to plain text and greyed out. Any ideas?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
Wow, that sounds a really cool tool... will search it out after my exam tomorrow :cool:

Well you can try one more thing, try uninstalling the mods which share the same functionality as CHT mod. i think modding the clock area is fine as I use one and don't have any of these problems. or you can wait till he makes a new version. I'll probably hold on till the official base for 6.5.X comes out. for me the latest 6th april version is stable enough, though I do get these random freezes mostly when using Opera.. rest all is good.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
are you using XT9? also how do you normally type? is it with both the thumbs with the phone resting on your fingers? if thats the case then chances are your other thumb presses the next key right about the time your first thumb goes to press on the space bar that way the space bar will not register (and they call it multi touch sheesh!!) I normally use swype, or the chinese keyboard i have installed, so dunno how it reacts to daily usage, but this is the first problem i noted when i just tried my phone after reading your post.. I have the same problem in the Iphone 3GS too.. is multitouch just for pinch and zoom? why doesn't it register two separate keys when pressed together? :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] crispy514:
Is it from an exchange server? if so it depends if your exchange server supports it.... Exchange 2007 does, exchange 2003 didn't....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
I think its a problem with your service provider. My Location uses A GPS for gettting your location, so maybe thats what is confusing your My location app. try updating it outside under the open sky, or use a wifi (with wifi it also uses info from your router settings) and see if you get it. do you get this problem while you are inside? if yes then stay inside and open google maps and see how much of a location radius it gives you, go outside get a satellite fix and then close google maps and try updating again. or go to quick GPS and download new satellite information and update from inside your house too.

The reason I say this is cuz when I went back home for the holidays (back to Pakistan) i used to get this problem when inside the house. I think its because we have a lot of cellular companies and they have the cell towers setup pretty far, giving a bad reception inside. so I used to get a large radius in google maps inside. Things that helped were updating satellite info using quick GPS or going outside and updating.

Do let me know if this works for you.. normally my "hunches" never lie to me... :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] smaberg:
you do know that toms autoinstall is already cooked in this ROM!...

new version still a long time left to release... can't getthe bold text on keyboard etc. to be normal. will try some other sms builds and see how it goes...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
Hey man,

have you tried using a different font in your ROM? There is one called a hand font made by Godzson (He is a senior member here in XDA) and it looks really really cool in the ROM.. especially for as the header for the Tabs. Only problem is that the size is a little big in some places (maybe can be set while cooking it in) and also it is not supported in multi language ROMs. (again maybe cooking could change that).

You can check that font out too.. a real eye candy. Cheers!:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] padlad:
Thanks for the reply, there's something definitely not right with it, if i keep one hand away from the device and use just one finger, it will still not register the space even though it shows as being pressed. It isn't all the time it is just intermittent. Oh well, maybe its time to nuke the device and go in search of another ROM. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] rjd1:
Take your time Smaberg... a little donation coming your way for continued great work for all of us... looking forward to the next masterpiece!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
hmm... do you have any languages support files installed? I use Chinese and Arabic, and some times HTC messaging behaves weirdly with them installed. like showing some characters twice but when i send the message the character only appears once. or some times it shows a large space between the new character i am typing and the last one typed. So could be the same problem with you too if you have some language support added.

This ROM is pretty good, give it a chance.. did you MTTY your phone before installing it? try another hard reset if you did not do one after a flash.

Last but not least, are your palms easy to sweat by any chance?The HD2 screen gets dirty easily, oily and stuff.. taht also messes with the capacitative touch screen.. try keeping the screen clean and dry if thats what the problem is. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] m2]iceman:
Link for download of the EU ROMs are not working
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
Yup, Smaberg said that they are shifting to a different server so the links are down. 3 posts above yours is the post by padlad. his signature has a link to the latest touch Xtreme ROM, but its for T mous. I think it will work for you if you have the 2.08 radio flashed. or you can ask padlad to confirm for you. he is from UK, maybe he is using the same ROM he linked! comments padlad?!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] padlad:
Yeah using the one i have a link to with radio 2.08.50.08_2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tsmadm:
Yes it is. When I was using the stock ROM, my exchange email was in html format.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] smaberg:
new ROM on its way

"build (sys 23557) 2.30.5.66" Both "EURO 448mb" and "TMOUS 576/512/1024mb" Versions

ps. removed voice commander cause i wanted moooore battery life :p

search this thread for cab if you want it.

Thanks, what a pleasant surprise i will flash soon! I was wondering if by chance you saw my earlier post about the swype keyboard position its just a little off, is there any fix for this. Thank for all your help!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mu5ic92:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JonFolse:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] legoladd:
hey Smaberg, is it possible to remove the tmo radio patch manually as it is giving me the high pitch voice quality in this part of the world thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Qazz~:
is the performance and stability same or better than the upcoming 23112 build that you said earlier? or should we still hold out?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] creatif:
Thanks for the rom! So far it's great!

One thing, I don't have 576mb activated with the new x-treme rom and radio 2.08.50.05..

How can I do that? I have the 'normal' HTC HD2 not the T-MO US.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Azzura:
Normal HD2 don't have 576Mb in this rom :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
did you perform an MTTY and then hard reset after the first flash? if not then chances are that it is what is wrong with your phone.

Or if you did all of this, then have you installed a manilla mod to your phone?chances are that this Mod is not compatible with this version of manilla. Or if you installed a 3rd party keyboard then check for the latest version fo that keyboard. cuz I don't have this problem in my phone. I can open the menu adn select wall papers.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
I guess there is a patch available elsewhere to activate the hidden RAM. or you can just use the T mobile version of the ROM with this radio and chances are it will show you the whole 576 MB RAM.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
are you using the latest ROM posted today(.60 is latest) or are you using the one posted on 6th april (.55 one?) cuz only the one posted today has the T moUS quality fix built in.. the old ones don't... maybe what your phone needs is the quality fix! lol :p..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] darkblak:
Thank you. I like the lock screen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] legoladd:
I patched .55 and found the pitch problem but did not have it on the original 2.08 radio rom so wondering if can i unpatch it from the latest .60.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] crispy514:
For the new ROM, which radio's work? Will this work with the 2.09 radio or do i have to move to a TMOUS radio?

I'm in the uK so radio 2.09 is far better for me (i'm happy to sacrifice the extra RAM)

Thanks.

Edit:- Works fine with radio 2.09 :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] smaberg:
better :D ....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Dann:
Smaberg:

This ROM need radio quality fix?? And a little bug: Home Tab Wallpaper doesn't work, any fix??

Thanx in advance!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] smaberg:
in the quoute you made It's says fix for tmous radio cooked in, so yes

I'll put up a cab with original radio file later (unpatch radio fix).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mithrandir007:
Actually, I have the same problem as he does with the latest TMOUS ROM (9/04).

I can't change the home screen or lock screen wallpaper : from the settings page, it simply doesn't do anything when I click (it just highlights the button for a second).

From the Home Screen, it doesn't do anything either.

Does anyone have any idea how I could change my wallpapers another way?

Thanks :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
are your albums working fine? can you scroll pictures? a few posts up i remember a guy had a problem with his albums on the .55 ROM, and he was using the same radio as you are! so Smaberg advised him to use 2.09 or other radio... So you can check if this helps you! I do not know if 2.09 supports 1024MB RAM or not. (is your mob the regular HD2 or T mobile one?) flash it and then perform a soft reset and check again. dunno if this will solve your problem. But if more people confirm that this problem then chances are it is a bug in the latest edition.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
Hey Guys,

the TCPMP attached itself to open jpg files on my phone and when I unchecked the file association in its options my phone stopped recognizing jpg files. I can open pics from album tab and all, but cannot do it form file explorer and the icon for it is also like an unrecognized file format icon. I guess if i put edit it in registry then it will be fine. can any one open up they registry file using PHM reg edit and under HKEY_Classes_root scroll to .jpeg and .jpg and paste here the registry keys and values you see there. please make sure in advance that all your jpg icons in file explorer are as that of the default pic in windows and not as that of TCPMP.

Thanks!

SEVEN compatibility issues

Hi all,

I installed SEVEN (OWA mail client) and now manila crashes all the time. Does anyone know a fix for this? I know others have this problem in other cooked ROMs (I had it with artimis as well)...

It's such a shame as I really need this OWA access and love this ROM...

Willing to pay well for a fix!

Rentmole
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] legoladd:
Thanks alot smaberg
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Osama Shah:
Dunno what SEVEN is, but a quick google told me that its still in beta stages.. so chances are its this reason. Does it work well with Manila switched off? Maybe you should try a newer build of this application (or an older one) see if that helps. Also contact the customer service at Seven for these issues, they can help better. Seven is a third party program, maybe you can search for some other OWA mail client see if that does the trick. :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mithrandir007:
Thanks for the quick reply.

My albums are working just fine (I can scroll pictures, pinch to zoom, view different albums etc..).

I have an european HD2 but with a TMOUS ROM, so I'm not sure I can use the 2.09 radio which I think is for EURO ROM's only.

I didn't install anything before trying to change my wallpapers so it's not because of some mod either.

I'll try to search on the forums, in case it's a bug with the newest build (maybe not specific to this ROM).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ckong1:
i can confirm wallpaper issue on latest ROM. proper task29 + hardresest flash, minor issue tho.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Mithrandir007:
Is there maybe another way to change the wallpapers by overwriting image files somewhere? I have tried too find something in the windows directory but so far no luck.

If I can change them that way, the bug wouldn't be a problem anymore since I guess most people don't change wallpapers that often.
