The most stable Rom I have ever used is Duttys Holy Grail v4.1. It uses stock icons but its fast and has lots of extra programs included while leaving more than 210MB free Rom for you to use. I would recommend the WM6.5 base (21907) as its the one that I use and I have never had any problems with it but if you really want to go with the WM6.5.5 option then he has one of those available also.

If you do go for the WM6.5 version then I can guarentee that any TaskBar will work perfectly with it.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] XroM:
A small app to switch a wireless devices with additional functions.

In resource you can customize the layout of buttons, background color and the name and font size.

The program supports the launch with the parameters (without displaying the main window)

:D Sorry for my English, Thank's google translator...

Can you create QVGA version of this application. I tried on my HTCMagician but can't full names of buttons.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deadugly:
Can you post sources for switcher?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Noonski:
For the ones interested in replacing the resources, as that's the fun part of this little app right here.

Super-Quick-Guide

To change the lay out of the Buttons use Resource Hacker.

Resource Hacker won't export the gif's correctly.

Use CFF Explorer and export to raw then add .png

(you can see it in the resource clearly).

Edit the png, flatten all layers save and remove extension, re-import back into CFF explorer.

Rebuild Header and Save, should do the trick.

Resign file.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Noonski:
Sorry it's VGA.

But theoretically you can change the Button Values and the Graphics to fit QVGA.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Piranha1:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mwalt2:
Would you mind posting the VGA version? Does it scroll or are the bottom buttons cut-off? Looks great XroM.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Noonski:
Buttons where cut of i didn't re position of the Buttons.

Give me a minute.

Unsigned VGA version by popular request.

Just open the exe in http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/

on the left side you will find the item where you can change button size.

Too bad it doesn't have an option for vibrate. That would make it the perfect app for long right press. Yes, this is a feature request.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] slimest:
pizzaman79, version I uploaded vibrates by default :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pizzaman79:
Sorry, i meant an option to disable volume (switch between volume on an vibrate), just like the fourth option from long key press.

Or is that what's included in the latest version?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] armenh72:
Before installing this I wanted to know

1. if this is a stand-alone app or it resides in memory all the time?

2. Does it take over long_press_power button or I need to assign a button to it myself?

a feature request: can you add a button for Display off and few more buttons for users to modify themselves to add links to their favorite apps? The more buttons, the better :)

spasibo xrom
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] slimest:
armenh72,

1. Standalone. Use memory only when opened

2. You should assign to long press yourself. For this purpose I renamed the file to EndKey.exe and copied it to \Windows directory, replacing existing file. That's it. If you want to remove the app, just delete EndKey.exe and softreset. Original file will return automatically.

Thanks for taking the time to work on this. I've tried so many of these types of apps but never found one as good and complete as this one.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] armenh72:
Thanks for the answer. I have installed your version on my TP2 and works nice. I actually decided to map this to a button with AEB plus. Is it possible to add few more buttons, namely: Display Off, Volume, Screen rotate? I can come up with more or leave it to the user to choose the app/do the assignment (with arguments).

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] imakul8:
It is not functioning properly. Where do I go to uninstall it manually? It is not in 'remove programs'.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] slimest:
MobileWon, sure you can not uninstall the program using 'ununstall feature' just because you did not install this program. It's just exe-file, absolutely alone :) So if you don't like it, try to remember, where you managed to put the file and delete it. That's it.

[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
I've done a search and read many posts about coreplayer performance on the HD2. Most have no problems but some do and i'm one of them.

I have no problem playing the files using these settings from member Shasarak (thanks mate):

Options/Video and activate Dither, then "smooth zoom always" rather than "smooth zoom 50%". You will get substantially better performance if you then go into the DirectDraw settings page, choose "YUY2" as your overlay format, leave "use device stretching" checked, and uncheck the other two boxes.

I have tried all other settings and combinations but i agree the above gives the best performance.

However, i am still experiencing occassional judder and it's annoying me.

1). would upgrading to stock ROM 1.66 make a difference?

2). is there ANYTHING else i can do to stop the judder? i've already tried disabling background tasks, wifi etc

3). The audio is also very slightly out of sync, it's delayed, it's minor but i notice it. It happens on all videos, they are all .avi I've not seen anyone complain of this before.

Thanks
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
With regards to uadio sync:

Menu --> Tools --> Settings

Select the 'Advanced' page

Manual A/V offset let's you adjust the audio sync :)
[HD2 General] kilrah:
The judder is most likely due to the format the videos are encoded in just eating too much CPU. How do you encode them?
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
I don't encode them, just downloaded movies in the common divx/xvid format. I played movies on my old N96but re-encoded them to mp4 as it didn't play avi and i never tried coreplayer on it.

Perhaps i should try re-encoding, but don't see why this phone couldn't handle a standard 700mb divx avi.
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
cheers mate, you are the man! putting a -0.300 has made it much better, not sure why it would be out like that on all movies? I'm very happy with that :) What do the other 2 settings do - soft drop tolerance & hard drop tolerance?

now just to fix the juddering.

I've found, and i think someone else suggested this in another thread, that if you pause it for a moment it sorts itself out. Would rather not have to do that but i don't see a way around it
[HD2 General] kilrah:
The standard ~1h30 700MB divx movies I've tried to play all worked nicely. But sorter ones of the same size (meaning more bitrate) could start being too much load. Just try and do a benchmark in coreplayer with a video that causes problems, if you have less than about 150% average playing speed you might start getting drops.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
It may help to put the phone in "Airplane Mode"; if it's checking for email messages in the background while playing it will judder like crazy. Use the task manager to kill off any other running applications as well....
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
I come to the conclusion that this phone just can not handle playing divx/xvid in avi very well, and i'm not sure why it can't.

I have gone back to my old ways of converting the video to mp4 using winavi mp4 converter, this also cures the problem of any files that have ac3 audio as it converts that as well.

On my 8 year old computer it would take 30 mins to convert a 700mb film, i have since bought a quad core Dell running 64 bit windows 7 and it converts in less than 10 mins!! :eek: :)

Smooth as butter now but a shame i have to go back to doing this. But at least the files will play in coreplayer, windows media and htc's player so plenty of choice :D

If anyone wants the settings i use for winavi mp4 converter then just ask away. It's not free but mine was if you get what i mean :cool:

EDIT:

I HAVE FOUND THE REAL PROBLEM, IT'S MY COREPLAYER! IT STARTED STUTTERING THE MP4 FILE THIS MORNING, WHEN I SWITCHED TO WINDOWS MEDIA OR HTC PLAYER IT WAS FINE 9OBVIOUSLY COULDN'T DO THIS BEFORE AS NEITHER OF THOSE PLAYERS SUPPORT AVI)

I JUST TRIED COREPLAYER AGAIN AND IT'S PLAYINNG THE SAME MP4 FILE FINE NOW, MUST BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY COREPLAYER, WILL GET ANOTHER VERSION.

WHAT A DRAMA AND SORRY FOR BORING YOU ALL WITH IT LOL

Hello everyone,

I bought a NEW TP2 in august 2009. It was a nice phone I thought then. But when I closed the keyboard the phone sometimes went off. I thought updating WM6.1 to 6.5 will solved that problem, so I waited for the upgrate, but it was no succes. I put the program Rhodium Keyboard Controller from Tarkim on the device. A great program, that's make a diffence with the iPhone.

So I decribed the problem and I sent it to HTC repair. It took 2 times to resolve the problem. But I got it back with a new motherboard (and s/n). But then the volume buttons didn't work correct anymore. So the device went back (3 times) to solve that problem. Oke it can happen, the people of the servicecenter HTC are nice and polite.

But now it is not possible to use the program from Tarkim anymore. The complete device freeze all buttons will not work anymore. I also have tried to put back several backups (Spb Backup). It is not possible anymore. So I sent it back to HTC services (2 times). Included a video and a link to Tarkims program. Both times the did NOT look at the cd (still sealed). Just reset the device and sent it back.

And now the HTC service say they do not look at 3th partsoftware, end of case. I think it is a hardware failure.

So I am out of options.

Does anybody think I can solve this problem with a custom rom.

Thanx in advance,

Richard

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
You need to use Rhodium keyboard controller not Raphael keyboard controller.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jamboman:
You are right, but I do mean Rhodium, sorry.

But do anyone know or think, that the problem is a hardware or a software problem?

[Hero, G2 Touch General] ZED_pt:
nop that is tethering what he and most ppl want is reverse tethering...

an example to simplify: I have a 25mb cable connection in my pc,no wifi router and an android phone.

I want to download something from market to my device but i dont want to use my data connection...I CANT.

I think this is as stupid as not having a OS file explorer,its a smartphone not a phone.

And what i really cant understand is why so many ppl want tethering,as in most service providers data connection is much more expensive then a wifi connection...and slower.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] peterc10:
I want to use tethering because when I am away on business I am often not within range of free Wifi. Try using paid for wifi in a hotel in the UK a couple of times (£10 - £15 per day) and you will realise how much cheaper data from the mobile network is especially since in the UK you can often get a "free" allowance of data included in your plan.

At the moment I have a contract dongle for mobile PC data access. When that contract runs out I will only use the phone on tethering.

Hi,

Just noticed something weird. I live in London at the moment, but I just got a text message from someone in the Netherlands. The local london time (which is also the time on my phone) was 12:08. However, since theres a 1 houre time difference between the uk and holland, my phone said the sms arrived at 13:08 (which is in the future!). After that, I got a text message from someon here in the uk, and since the timestamp on that one is 12:20, it shows it as an old message..

Why doesnt the phone just use the local time of arrival as a timestamp? Seems more logical to me...

[HD2 General] networkn:
Hi There!

I notice that since moving my sim card from my i8910 where I didn't have duplicate contacts, that when I installed it in my new hd2, I do have duplicates but can't determine why. Usually it's because you have both sim and phone contacts displayed, but I haven't copied them to the phone yet.

i am concerned about deleting them for fear of losing them.

Also I expected contacts and on my list at the bottom I have "people" instead, and when I "add contact" it creates a new blank contact.

Where is the contacts?
[HD2 General] networkn:
Really? No-one knows the answer or has had this problem before?
[HD2 General] networkn:
Bump? Anyone?
[HD2 General] kilrah:
If you remove the SIM and boot your phone, do you still have the duplicates?
[HD2 General] Mikulec:
Lets clarify it, do you have double contacts on your sim?

Contacts on sim have different icon them contacts on phone, does all your contacts have the same icon?

Did you sync your phone with the pc?
[HD2 General] networkn:
Nope, no contacts at all, Seems like the dupes are on the sim, though they don't show up as dupes on another phone I have here. Is there a nice tool for cleaning dupes off a sim?
[HD2 General] networkn:
Never sync'd, but all contacts look like sim contacts.
[HD2 General] Mikulec:
That is quit weird, I think sktools has an option to scan and delete duplicate contasts, appointments, tasks, ... U can try it. Before that backup your contacts, just in case.
