hero rom getting sluggish most of the time..what can i do with it???
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] st0kes:
Just my experience but I've never found a usable Hero rom (for 32B hardware). They are all laggy to a degree ... i.e press Home and then wait for at least 5 seconds for the home screen to load. Now I am prepared to get flamed but this is just what I have experienced ...

Have you partitoned your sd card? If so how large is your swap partition? All you can do really is allocate more swap to compensate for the lack of memory on the 32B, and set the level of swappiness to manage how much swapping occurrs. I don't spend any time on Hero roms because Bluetooth doesn't work so others may have more tips to offer than I do.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ekie84:
whats a partitioned???i haven't root my magic...i've used the taskiller but i does'n speed up my magic at all...now i have uninstall the taskiller and it not that laggy anymore...and whats a perfect SPL????do i have that perfect SPL???shoottt

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] wadep389:
I'm definatly no expert but it sounds promising. Can you pop out your SD card and put the correct RAPHIMG on it? grab a good GSM rom.

Again I'm no expert so it might be a good idea to wait for further comments before you do anything.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Gmic1000:
Try formatting sd card using fat32

and place the RAPHIMG.nbh on the root of your sd card

Then try again

Hope this helps.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] TheBigB86:
Why don't you try installing through a usb connection from the tri-color screen?

Also try holding the reset button for 5 secs.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] super34man:
Have you tried taking out the sd card and hitting yes when it asks you if you want to restore? Or hard resetting

If you have and it didn't work, I would find the original shipped ROM and flash the Raphimg.nbh using the sd card (I'm assuming you aren't able to connect using activesync, if you can, run the shippedROM.exe).

If that works, you can proceed flashing HardSPL (if you haven't already), then flash using a ROM (NRGZ28 makes some great ones).

Always follow the steps found here when flashing:

I would plug into USB and hold down VOL down and the soft reset button which will put u in the 3 colors screen. then download a good rom or even stock rom and flash. Give that a try
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gamikzone:
u should be able to fix this, i flashed a wrong radio to my fuze and i was stuck at the tricolor screen, so i just connected it via usb and flashed it back to before.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
This might not be for everyone but I thought I'd share. Before this I couldnt stand playing my games on Nesoid since the virtual D-pad wasnt that accurate and I would always end up pressing the wrong direction since it is very small and without something to feel you dont know what you are pressing. The same goes true for the virtual A and B buttons since they were so small I would constantly jump when I wanted to fire and vice versa...

So here goes:

- Under user settings make sure screen upside down is checked and set the orientation to only landscape (These settings will make sure you can use the trackball for your trackball D-pad on the proper left side we have always been used to PLUS it makes the screen size bigger)

- Set trackball sensitivity to 2 since the trackball is REALLY sensitive when at 3 or more

- Under key settings set the B button as volume down and A button as volume up

Presto! now you've got a physical d-pad on the correct side (left) and physical buttons on the right...

Hope this helps :D
[Nexus One General] lolittle:
Using the trackball to move would make it so u had to constantly scroll the TB to move :/ ... That would get rather annoying lol
[Nexus One General] danguyf:
I like it! Cool idea.

the virtual buttons on gameboid works well for me but this sounds like a good idea (for the a/b buttons) but idk about the track ball.....

hello,

there is a chance that someone will port ( hack ) skyfire ( latest version 1.5) to wince 5.0 and 6.0 ?

This is the best browser ever and there are so many wince devices, with great screens and hardware... but skyfire doesnt run on them, doesnt even install.

Also not working with files extracting from cab. Most wince apps that work are portable, that means a folder with some files in it, no install.

Old skyfire 1.1 ( pacthed for wince, portable ) works ok but cant connect, says that apn cant provide full internet connectivity, cant bypass that error, and also is in 320x240 and that looks horrible on 800x480 screens.

Any help will be appreciated , many thanks.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexdedo:
Hi everyone... I bought a week ago a brand new Sony Xperia.

It was Vodafone braned but supposingly unlocked.

As I inserted my 3 UK sim-card for the first time the phone could not detect any simcard. After a few soft resets I decided to try with a Voafone card and it worked no problem, so I decided to try again my 3 sim-card and with joy this time everything worked to perfection.

After just a couple of days, all of a sudden the phone started losing the network and giving me a "sim card missing error"... this would happen every time I would activate the flight mode, or simply when the phone would lose signal for some reason... or even just randomly, for no reason. I've tried to flash different radios and different ROMs but the problem stays the same.

I know the sim card is ok as I was using it on an orange HTC touch diamond which I had unlocked and everything was working fine.

I have run the ATCommander and it says SIMLOCK=00 0 which I suppose it means the phone is unlocked...

It's as if the phone was randomly locking itself several times a day for no reason... and the only way to make it work is to soft-reset it about 10-15 times in a row... until it recognizes the sim card and then randomly stops working again a few hours later...

What can I do? Shall I just change operator? Has anyone experienced anything like this? Could 3UK and sony Xperia be incompatible?

Please help, I am desperate!!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Banzay777:
sim card missing/no service

bro, i've had EXACTlY the same problem!!!

its due to simcard scratching by xperia housing design!

replaced my card and it worx a charm now, haven't had to double softreset yet, and before - it took 10-15 times before it got recognized- TRUST me - its the card, replace it - its free and should solve them pesky no service messages for u ;)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanPratt:
What? Really? HTC Sync lets you synchronize Outlook or Windows Address Book contacts on your PC with your Hero.

Just don't use it! there is nothing to say you have to use 'HTC Sync'.

I never use it as I don't want the contacts in Outlook to sync to my Hero. I just use my google contacts for this.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deech:
No there is nothing saying I HAVE to use HTC Sync however if I want to put all my contacts across in one easy go then the options seem a little limited.

Fixed it now just told it not to auto sync and that seems to have got control back to me :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanPratt:
Glad to hear you got it sorted... :)

I know there are limited options when 'sync-ing' contacts to your Hero.

I used 'ExportContacts' app in the market to export all my 'old' SIM contacts into a csv file. I then exported my contacts from outlook also to a csv file which can then be imported into your Google account.

All to do then was to 'merge' all of the contacts in my Google account. This then syncs with the phone and I never bothered to use HTC Sync.:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deech:
Makes sense, I dont use the google address book as I tend to keep the data useage to a minimum mainly as when at work we dont even have a phone signal, so prefer to carry everything "locally" properly, hence the much abused and hated outlook ;0

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbrunt:
Yeah I think most of the ROMs support it now, but bear in mind you'll have to use browsers or apps that use multitouch. SuperD is awesome. I'm currently running enomther's TheOfficial Donut w/ expansion pack v2.5.1 (TMO OTA DRC83 cuz I like being able to check my Yahoo mail) and generally use Dolphin Browser. Both are great 1.6-based ROMs with a lot of mods, including multitouch.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Logicalstep:
Hi all,

I have been flashing ROMs for a while now, but just recently I'd say the last 4 ROMS i've tried all seem to be very slow and jerky on the graphics.

I was mainly using maryone ROMS and they seemed fine initially, but with all the 235** and 2400* ROMS it all seems very slow.

I'm using the Energy ROM at the moment and it seems better but still not great in terms of speed.

Is this just me or is anyone else getting it as well?

I remember reading a while ago about having to re-flash an original ROM occasionally, but can;t find any info on it when searching.

Logicalstep
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] chambersnet:
Slow ROMS

I've also been flashing ROMS for some time now and whilst the 6.5 ROMs are considerably better than when they were first ported across from other phones, they do seem to have reached a point where they just don't seem to get any faster.....is it time to upgrade the hardware (ie new phone) or does anyone think the ROMS can get any faster.

I've flashed just about every cooks rom and almost inevitably move on after awhile being disappointed - by the speed.

Thats said I think all the cooks have done a cracking job of improving the touch hd.

Currently using:-

G10's Evo v2.00 WM_24001_ Leo 2.09_2.5.20121412.1
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] BuroBernd:
well no wonder you're disappointed about the speed, you're running a heavy UI, sense 2.5

go for sense 2.1 or even win mob 6.1, and your hd will speed up!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gnarlytom:
agree with burobernd. Although of course it is personal opinion, i always go for speed over the ;latest' packages.

i just cant use sense 2.5 for everyday use, way too slow!

I generally use Topix (the WM6.1 / Sense 2.1 combo - this appears to be the fastest, but there are lots of different combo's on offer), but at the moment I am using blackstonehenge v3.4. it has WM6.5.x and sense 2.1

although not as fast as topix, it is useable, the best 6.5.x i have tried, and i like the big bottom taskbar
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] napsterdj:
Search on wiki here for Stock ROM flashing.

Make sure you know what ROM you are flashing and what Radio works best for you before you flash the ROM.

Try hard reset twice after flashing your ROM's cuz it helps sometimes. If you are frequently going between 6.1 and 6.5, I suggest you flash to stock ROM and then start flashing again.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Logicalstep:
I;'ve been using 6.5 but both the 235** and 218** coms.

I haven;t flashed back to 6.1 in a long time, because quite frankly it sucks compared to 6.5.

I always do a hard reset twice after Falshing and have done ever since I started, better safe than sorry.

I suppose I justr expect every increment in build to get faster, not slower, which appears to be the case recently.

The 24001 was supposed to be fast, but wasn;t for me.

I'm getting to the point wherre I just want a stable 6.5 with a sense ui designed for my CPU.

I get the impression alot of ROMS are using the leo builds, which kind of makes me think, it's not going to be fast on the Blackstone.

I'll keep trying new ROMs, I'm just hoping that MS will release and official 6.5 / 6.6 soon, as I'd expect that to be optimised more than most.

Thanks for the advice all.

[Nexus One General] johnboywilson:
Hi, I had my Nexus One for about 4 weeks when I discovered dust under the screen. I rang the service centre who said because my phone was over 2 weeks old I couldn’t have a replacement only a repair. I sent it in for repair and it came back a week later.

I checked the phone over and it looked fine. Then 3 days later I noticed that the dust had come back again. Naturally I was very unhappy as the repair was obviously not carried out correctly or there was a fault with phone.

I then contacted the service department again to tell them I was very unhappy with the repair and what could I do to escalate the issue. I was told by Lee after he had spoken to an escalations manager that I could have a doorstep exchange. That was supposed to happen on the Wednesday.

I waited in all day for the replacement and it never arrived. I rang the service department again to ask where my phone was and was told that a doorstep exchange was not available in the UK and should not have been promised to me. They said that I had to send the phone in again for repair. I explained to them that I was not happy with the service I was getting and that I wanted to take it further. All they could offer was to have the phone looked at again and see if they could replace it.

So I sent it in again for repair and after they had had it for 4 days I rang to see what was happening as I had heard nothing. I was told that I could have a brand new replacement phone and I would receive it Friday. It came Friday and I was happier now I had a phone without dust under the screen. That was until I used it when the lighting in the room was low. I then noticed that the soft key lights were not illuminating. I really could not believe this from a supposedly brand new phone.

So yet again I rang the service department explained my problem to Sebastian and he said that the service I had received was not good enough and he would pass it onto his escalations manager and that he would ring me Monday morning which is today. He didn’t ring Dominic did and said that my phone would have to go for repair again.

At this stage I am now that fed up with the whole thing I could not be bothered arguing anymore, as over the weekend the phone had got dust under the screen just like my last one had. So today I am sending my phone in again. It also means that the service centre has had the phone longer in their possession than I have had since owning it.

I like the phone just not the quality of the build of it and also the outcome of service from the service centre.

I would like someone to contact me and explain why I have had so many problems and also insurance that I will have a working phone eventually.

[Nexus One General] minogue:
I had a similar issue. i tried purchasing aNexus with my Paypal Card but since it was over $500, it was declined by paypal since i had some limitations!

then i used my bank accounts debit card and tried to purchase the phone again, the shopping cart showed me 1 Nexus one phone. very good, i went through with the purchase and a few hours later i receive an automatic email stating the first purchase has been re initiated since the card was changed.

So now i had purchased 2 phone after various emails and complains, the only solution they told me was to send one of them back without opening it. and so i did. a max of 14 days was expected for the refund.

i called Several times in between those days ad said the payment should be coming soon, 16 days passed and nothing so i called again and sent google and email and i received a refund of $521 and not the $560 i paid. i emailed google and told them that the item was never opened and they told me i would get charged for restocking fees either and that it was never my fault to have purchased 2 phones rather than one.........

2 weeks later i receive the remaining refund of $40. a total of 1 month to get everything settled and i AM NOT RICH TO HAVE $600 taken for that long of a time.....

Not to mention, the other phone which i kept had the dust issue too, sent it back and received a brand new one cuz it was under the 14 days. but it had the same dust issue too. i just decided to keep it and every once in a while i get a piece of computer paper or note cards and clean it with it!
