Help with an install question, please

Hello,

This has probably been asked before but my searches have not revealed any answers. I could have missed the answer though.

I've looked at the Flashing your first ROM topic, HSPL3, and some of this thread as well as the main Energy thread (but not all 1000+ pages!). I thought I was good to go. I put in the HardSPL, unzipped Energy ROM... and stopped cold.

Inside the unzipped Cookies Energy ROM folder are four programs. None of which is specifically CustomRUU.exe. Nor is their a README or equivalent. So what should I be doing next:

downloading CustomRUU & using Leoimage.nbh,

EnterBootlaoder.exe,

Leo_SoftwareUpgrade.exe,

ROMUpdateUtility.exe,

RUUGetInfo.exe

Or is there something that I've missed?

Just in case... I've got a fairly stock TMoUS HD2. I have CHT and Editor, Dutty's Task Manager, (both installed by CAB) and a couple of other random apps. Nothing I cannot wipe. Nothing to really back up. I've had the phone for about two weeks and knew I would be flashing the ROM so I didn't get too deeply attached to the bloatware. ;)

i jus got a tmobile hd2, what version of spl do i flash to it. cant wait to laod energy on it
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] pandaxownage:

does anyone know how to disable the haptic feedback on the new 69 build?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
You gata do it from a few places... search the this thread for "vibration" or "disable vibration" and you'll get it.

You gata go to X button settings and stop it there. then you have to go somewhere else, I forgot.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] pandaxownage:
just for the texting though
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
oh, go all the way to the right to settings. personalize -> vibration

cookie july 11th is a bit unstable, froze on me randomly... and where is ark switch?

Heading back to july 10th...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] fresnoboy:
The link for the Titanuim ROM seem's to be broken, any leads to were it can be found? Thanks in advance...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] msticninja:
Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe, CustomRUU.exe actually just unzips a bunch of files, then runs ROMUpdateUtility.exe. Sometimes the ROM images have already skipped the CustomRUU part.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] RiffyDivine:
Thank you. I love this rom but I am not a fan of the iphone like sms and mms stuff. I am still blown away at how fast the phone now works, no crashes no BS no nothing it just works. There was a donate link on the first post right?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] pandaxownage:
thanks a lot even though i just wanted the texting its fine

battery problem

Hey guys, flashed 21908.Jul.10 last night and am getting a problem where my battery won't hold a charge. I left it plugged in through the night and woke up this morning and it was at 12%. I connected it to a different outlet and used it a bit and it went down to 6%. Left it on standby as it "charged" and it later turned off.

What I noticed is that when I had it connected, the battery on the task bar displayed 100% but when I selected it, it showed the actual battery %. While it was plugged in the LED also would flash orange as if it were charging but would change to green on the next flash, and back to orange. Once the phone was completely off and "charging," I'd get the same issue with the LED.

Now I try to turn it on and it shuts down on me cuz the battery doesn't have a charge. And I can't flash it to another ROM cuz it doesn't have at least 50% battery, so kind of stuck here lol.

Any suggestions?

Other info:

I was on 21907.Jul.01 before flashing to this ROM.

I'm running Radio 2.12.50.02_2

Thanks
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] irsw:
OMG.

I was just backing up my device and starting to get my head together for task 29 and the new 11th rom for testing. It's good I read tis thread before.

So I understand the freezing problem still there?????
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
Just be patient ...

When you reflash your phone, it forgets everything it learned about your battery, sometimes it takes 2 to 3 full charge cycles for it to level back out ...

Also Which flavor of the Jul10 rom did you flash, Cookie, Dinik, GTX ? this makes a difference, if cookie, there are new Jul11th builds ....
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Young War:
It was Cookie. Just tripped me out cuz this was the first time I had this problem with any of the Energy ROMs, or any other ones for that matter.

I took out the battery and put it back in several times and was able to at least "restore the factory settings." After that, took out the battery and put it back in a few more times while the phone was plugged in, and was finally able to boot it up. It seems like it's charging now, it was down to 2% lol.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
Always, and I mean

ALWAYS

have a spare battery... ;-)
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Young War:
Let me know where I can go to get a deal on them lol
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Sabardeyn:
Thank you very much for the info.

NRG might want to add this to his instructions / faq posts as they differ from the Flashing Your First ROM and the Energy ROM topics. Something as simple as:

"When installing any Energy ROM, follow the instructions found in the Flashing Your First ROM topic. However, step 4a/b of ActiveSync Flashing is to run the program ROMUpdateUtility. Do not run CustomRUU or LeoImage."

[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
I got this one, cheap and works better than the stock ...

The picture the guy shows is a 1450 mah, but don't worry it is a 1600mah I got two of them ...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
This is because the 07/11 build is a test build. It is NOT one of his standard, stable builds.

The instructions in the first thread ARE the correct instructions under normal circumstances.

How would I remove Slide to Shutdown that was cooked into the ROM?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
you can't remove it, it is cooked into the rom, you can install one over the top of it .. , but removing it you cannot do ...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] VisualOddity:
So I was about to DL the MaxSense UI ROM, and decided to search for bugs first. I keep seeing people say that there is an error when installing: Energy.Leo.21908.Sense2.5.MaxSense.Jul.10.7z ... Well, would this also be true for the 23569 Build? Should I go with that build, or is there a reason not to?

If I should stick to 21908, and there is still this install issue, how do I find an older version? And if I do, that should be tested and well, yes?

Thanks for any help. I will updating to one of them as soon as I get replies... :)
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] echardcore:
thnx. it seems so unnecessary. extra step when rebooting.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
You could just use the Reset app in the Start Menu and not have to press a hard key.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] VisualOddity:
Anyone? :cool:
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
I never had the freezing problem in any of the previous energy rom, unless it was app related.

In july 11th version, it froze on me randomly... after 20 minutes of use. With no applications running, I only restored my PIM data, restarted, sent a txt and boom... forze

GTX

Where is the GTX version for download - Jul10? The one in the main folder is corrupt.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
Corrupt how? People have been installing AFAIK.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] sashaohio:
File Energy.Leo.21908.Sense2.5.Cookie.GTX.Jul.10.7zip

During update process ->> goes to 100%

The image file is corrupted.

Tested 3 times.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
This has been covered in the main thread a few times ....

After it finishes and you get the corrupt error flash your favorite radio, and the phone should boot with energy just fine ....
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Dylan Wilson:
I flashed a few hours ago, it was a bit bumpy at first and froze about 3 times, but it seems to be running flawlessly now, love the speed and the look.

(June 11th build)

sexy ROM my good sir!
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
That's what I was eluding to. *shrug*
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] sashaohio:
Thanks man. I must of missed it. Just wondering why does this happen? It wasn't like that in Jul4th version..
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
I dunno. I have some personal thoughts about it, but I am not all that well versed on the nuts and bolts of the actual ROM writing process (but I have been studying a bit).

Better to stay quiet and be thought of as a fool than to open one's mouth and make it known... lol

lock screen background

so i just downloaded Energy.Leo.21908.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jul.10.7 and installed it. I love it and it is a great improvement over the base wm6.5 - there is just one thing i am stuck on - how to do change the background on the lock screen?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
Which lock screen are you using? The standard, built in one or CHT Lock Screen?

For the standard>Sense Settings>Personalize>Lock Screen Background

For CHT>Sense Home>Menu>Set Wallpaper>CHT Lockscreen section
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] sashaohio:
Better to stay quiet and be thought of as a fool than to open one's mouth and make it known... lol

You know thats what I usually do, but if you don't ask questions, you don't learn. I personally could not find it mentioned in the main thread, and does it really hurt to ask questions, I mean thats what we are all here for is to help each other.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] apexs2:
thank you i see what i was doing wrong i was going under menu/set wallpaper and CHT lockscreen - i am not using cht

Arabic Support with Leo Energy Roms

I had the same problem with all the Leo Energy Rom's. I am using MobiDiv Arabizer 431. The way I fixed it is as follows:

1-)After installing MobiDiv, I would copy the Tahoma.ttf and tahomabd.ttf font files located in the Windows folder to the windows/fonts folder.

2-)I would then go to the registry editor and search for "Calibre" and replace every single instance of "Calibre" with "Tahoma". If I recall correctly There are 5 or 6 instances of "Calibre" in the registry.

3-)Soft Reset your phone and you should be able to write Arabic and see Arabic fonts in Total Commander and all the Sense tabs as well (I wasn't able to before).

The only bug left as far as Arabic support is that sometimes in the email tap in sense, some of the english letters in email previews will be replaced by squares (I would say in about 10% of emails I get), but if I select the email and view it the text will be rendered correctly. If anyone has a fix for this please share, but at least it's not a major bug since one has to open the email anyways to read it in full.

Is there a way to make the quicklinks label text color black instead of white?

hello there

so i got my hands on a htc HD2, broken apart. i got to fix it watching youtube vids, now the question is.... what do i do to get it running smothly?.... please point me in the directions. i come from a blackberry Storm 2. and i like the looks of this phone, also saw the 176 comments ,but couldnt understand a thing. :( please and help me get on my right direction. btw first post ever here :D
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
Start reading here ......

After you digest that, come back with your questions .....

You will be come an addict as well, I had a storm for a while, more like a "slight drizzle" compared to the HD2 ... :D:D:D:D

EDIT, that link is for the TMOUS version, but the basics are the same, which version is yours ?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
Eh, asking questions is one thing... making assumptions is another... Did you ever get it up and running?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] VisualOddity:
Since people seem to be unable to install 21908, This afternoon I installed Energy.Leo.23569.Sense2.5.MaxSense.Jul.10... So far, I am in love. Exactly what I needed.

Here are 3 questions, I hope you all can assist....

1) What's up w/ 21908? Is there a trick to installing that I'm not seeing? Also, is there any reason to go with 21908 over 23569? I am starting to customize, and I don't want to go too far if I need to switch over to 21908. QUICK help on this one is much appreciated...

The next 2 are a mix of questions and suggestions...

2) When I hit home from the 1st or 3rd screen, or the quick links screen, it flashes something at the bottom, but doesn't go to the default 2nd screen. When on a parallel screen in Android, the "home" button takes you to the default Home, which would be awesome to see in here...

3) Snap to grid? I LOVE being able to move the widgets around like within Android, however, as with a lot of people, I'm all OCD about things being lined up perfectly, equal spaces between icons, etc. Could there be a "snap-to-grid" type of function implemented? If there already is, can someone please tell me how to find it? lol

*EDIT* One more question:

Running this ROM, since it has 3 screens like Android, what wallpaper dimensions should I download/search for?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
Each screen uses the same wallpaper, and they are not really screens more like panels, and you can make it up to 5 I think. 3 has always been enough for me ....

21908 is WinMo 6.5 (start menu top left)

23569 is WinMo 6.5.5 (start menu bottom left)

I always run 23569, honestly all BS aside I do not have as many problems as most.

Really I think it is a personal preference , some people say apps are more compatible with 6.5 as opposed to 6.5.x, but I just don't see that ...

EDIT:

Oh yeah the trick to installing that 21xxx build is, after it gives you the corrupt error, just go back to the bootloader and flash your fav radio, then reboot and all is good ...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] VisualOddity:
Awesome, thank you! I'll stick with 23569!

About the wallpapers. When I use a regular 480x800, the height is right, but the width is severely stretched. What is the literal width? It wouldn't be 800 across the screens (I use 3), would it? 800x800? Hmmm...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
Not sure what you have there, my wallpaper is not stretched ,it is 480x800 ..
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] VisualOddity:
Found it! Looks like, for the MaxSense UI, they should be 960x800... Bout to test...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] :
Ahh well there ya go, did not know you had the MaxSense UI, now all is clear ...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] VisualOddity:
That did it! :woot:

voice dialing/bluetooth

with stock rom (2.10 i think) on HD2 TMOUS I had a voice dialing feature that worked perfect. Never had to touch it so I dont even know who made it!?

Flashed Energy Dinik glass rom July 1 (Love it!) and radio 2.07.50....

Voice dialer is gone.

Ive searched google, the energy thread , and basic site search. I get some leads but not cab file I need.

installed cyberon voice dialer (?), looks like it might be good but I have to voice tag all contacts-lame! other version was easier.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
The version that was installed was Microsoft Voice Command 1.6.x. You should be able to find a copy of it floating around Google-land somewhere...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] shawn10:
Help!!!! I flashed the July 10th Max Sense 21... and it went to 100% and then there was an error. I tried to reset it but the same thing came up. I read something about flashing your "favorite radio", but i've never done that before. Any help would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] dotnetguyaz:
Search is your friend...

Download the radio from the link in my sig. Then, you just flash it like you do any other ROM. disaster averted...
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] 808Granato:
Thanks for the info. I get a lot of free download hits, but even with 'Rapid Share' I cant seem to get a working file onto my phone.

I'll try this cyberon one and keep looking.

[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] chrisrj28:
The radio that is required is the one in my sig, you have to flash that separately first and then flash the rom.

I didn't get errors, it just wouldn't sync automatically anymore using the "push" technology.

My Exchange connection was fine as well - for about a day. I'll keep a watch after this new flash. Maybe it was just a small hiccup or dirty flash.

Shortcut Help

NRG,

ROM is awesome. Super stable and blazing fast. Quick question though. Is there a shortcut for changing the sound profiles (Normal, Silent, Vibrate) other than going to the settings.

10.Jul.2010 with the 2.12.50 radio, not sure if that matters.

Using swype is better for me cause then no one really knows what I am doing at the office and I can type and txt, ahhh the gift of multi tasking.

Well using it just watch the line it leaves and see if it looks all jittered well using it, not all the time. But it happens enough to make me have to re do a word 3 or 4 times lol.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] RiffyDivine:
When switching roms, don't you have to "re train" the battery a few times?
