Thanks stylez. I had already cleared/deleted my temp files a few days ago using that app. In the meantime though my free storage space (RAM) continues to decrease even when I'm not actively using any app!?? This is what puzzles me the most. Out of 128 MB ram, I'm now down to ~3.5 MB! Do you know what could be causing this or what to do? There are only 7 programs listed in my storage memory. Should i remove all of them except maybe "MS classic blue" (whatever that is).

When it boots up, the screen displays "TPC Elite ROM series" & then series of digits & text in the lower right corner of the screen. I'm new to using pocketpc's but it seems this device is running some mods? I have installed:

WM 6.5 (professional)

ROM version: TPC_V11_MEGA WWE (11/04/09)

touchflo v3.0

s2u2 (v2.04)

CHome editor (v1.6 beta)

titanium weather

Aebutton plus (v2.6.6.1)

& a host of other apps some of which I understand their function & some I don't.

Also a few days ago I was able to move some apps from the phone's storage

memory to my storage card. I was only able to move 2 or apps, but couldn't move others. Whenever I tried moving or deleting files/apps it wouldn't allow me to do so. I used total commander ce (v2.51) to do this. I have "file explorer" installed, but it seems less robust & have fewer features.

Any suggestions on how to move these apps or delete unwanted files?

thanks all.

Ok now i know what the problem is "as have ROM info" ;) It's deblogger solution is you can't delete folder Deblogger use Task Manager and kill cprog.exe then delete :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kgj:
Thanks stylez, but I thought I read somewhere that cprog.exe file is an integral part of WM6.5 & utilizing the phone & killing or deleting it could be bad?

have you deleted this file from your phone? if so is there some other that replaces its functionality or is it even necessary?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stylez:
Delete the deblogger folder, as the solution says it's on root, you may not be able to delete without stopping the process cprog.exe it will have no effect on cprog.exe in the Windows Directory. :)

I dont have deblogger in my ROM as no Mega M2D and all recent releases don't as TPC cooked the ROM before we knew the issue existed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kgj:
Thanks for the tips. i followed the instructions, checked my free space & it was up to 76MB at 11am when i deleted it. :)

Do you know what these other softwares are for that I listed? I tried researching them, but am not sure if they are critical or what I can do to move them if not? (using total commander did not work)(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stylez:
That's cool happy to help. :)

You can't move programs cooked in ROM "Read Only Memory" files ;)

Aebutton plus (v2.6.6.1) is a button mapper allows multi function per button press "very handy"

titanium weather Application for CHome weather

CHome editor (v1.6 beta) Allows moving panels, making new panels etc in CHome

s2u2 (v2.04) Lock screen

touchflo v2.0 M2D homescreen
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kgj:
thanks again stylez!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kgj:
ok 1 month later I have the same problem! i deleted the deblogger folder. & i may have done another reinstall since then, but it has resurfaced. is there any way to make this a read only file instead of deleting it?

I don't see the point in a Solid State Disk.

They are over priced,

Too small,

And data tranfer rate are only about 233mb/s compared to 300mb/s spining hdd

I read a bit at the top of that site saying:

SLC SSD capacity- grew 71x

in the period 2001 to 2009.

3.5" SLC SSD capacity was 14GB in 2001. 2.5" SLC SSDs reached 1TB in 2009. MLC SSDs could pack 4TB into 3.5" today if there was a market. Price, and enterprise applications unsuitability presently preclude this.

So ok the technology is there for big ssd's but they are still over priced.

So you have an SSD in your laptop?

Is there any noticeable speed differences?

flyboy
[Off-topic] stylez:
It's not really about speed when comes to solid states disks it's durability and size, no moving parts, which generally slows down the speed.

I found my Eeepc SSD to be far slower than say 5400 in a Gateway also found that if many processes stated @ once it's crawl like on bootup.
[Off-topic] flyboyovyick:
so ssd's are not as fast as spining drives?

flyboy
[Off-topic] Da_G:
I've gotta say, in my case, when it comes to SSDs, it really *IS* all about speed :)

I purchased 4 32GB SSDs (SuperTalent ME/GX Drives - discontinued model, not the GX2, which is slower) - last year. I have them configured in a 128gb RAID0, speeds top out at roughly 650MB/s Read/Write, which is the rough practical limit of the Intel ICH9R SATA RAID chipset i'm using.

Even the single SSD outperformed any of the hard drives in my system (1-2 year old 7200RPM drives with 32mb cache)

SSDs have a hugely reduced latency time compared to a spinning disk, that's their major draw. Random access reads are hugely improved. For my usage pattern, nothing would suit it more other than a RAMDrive (which would cost much more and be volatile)

Here's an ATTO test on my RAID0, the write speeds are lower than usual (usually around 620MB/s) - I'm breaking in the new Intel RST driver. (Check out that read anomaly!) It would take you somewhere on the order of 6-8 Hard Drives in RAID to acheive a result like this with sustained transfers, and then you'd still be wayyy behind on random reads.

In comparison, here's 2 Raptors in RAID0 (Arguably as fast as you get with hard drives)

3 Raptors would almost equal the sustained speeds I get with 4 SSDs, be cheaper, and have more storage. But would never come close to the random access time using SSDs due to the nature of a hard drive (heads that need to seek)
[Off-topic] stylez:
Sorry to cut down post Da_G, must be cr*p drives in asus Eeepc range then as all models tried are slow but then they are budget side of laptops, always thought the problems would be simultaneous reads\writes..

"spinning" drivers are slow compared to ssd

people should not confuse the speed stated by the interface like SATAII 3Gbit/sec with how fast the physical media can transfer data

storagereview do benchmarks and keep a database for performance

http://www.storagereview.com/php/be...&numDrives=1&devID_0=360&devID_1=368&devCnt=2

these 2 are some of the fastest "spinning" drives max out at 119MB/sec

SSD also use a lot! less power and don't get hot

but imho they are still too small and expensive for desktop use
[Off-topic] SeanFromSoCal:
Da_G, I'm kind of curious as to what kind of tasks are you doing that require you to have the need for maximum random access read speed? Are you running a large database that doesn't fit into memory or the OS page cache? Besides that I couldn't see you doing constant random reads over a large set of data.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] toztigger:
Hello I would like to know how to disable the rotation of the music and photo tabs because in landscape manilla they go off screen
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] qingcao:
as I think, you can't only disable these two tabs, they belong to the manila module, if you disable their rotation, others will be effected as well, like home, settings, weather, etc.

if you still want to disable all of them, two choice,

a. find a application to adjust the rotation(search it in the forum);

b. remove the manila rotation registry(path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor), remove the manila from ModuleName and WhileList.

FAQ's

1. What is Rom Flashing?

A Rom is basically an operating system for your phone. A Custom/Cooked Rom is a Stock/Shipped Rom that has been stripped of clutter and tweaked to give the best performance. Custom Roms usually contain the latest updates and programs so are more stable and up to date and work better than stock roms that are supplied with your phone.

2. What is the difference between SPL and HardSPL?

The SPL (Secondary Program Loader) is mainly a bootloader which allows a ROM to be flashed onto your device. The SPL does more than just load and boot the ROM it sets various flags which can control the operation of the OS on the device. It also controls some operations between the OS and the device's hardware. SPLs come paired with shipped (or leaked) official ROMs and are meant to match the ROMs operation. Therefore, with each new ROM release there is likely to be a new SPL.

A Hard SPL is one that is permanently flashed in your device memory and will boot up every time your device boots. The SPL that is shipped with your device, or upgraded from an official ROM is a Hard SPL. In short, if it is loaded into your device's firmware, and survives a hard-reset it is considered Hard. Therefore HardSPL2 is a shipped SPL that has been patched to allow flashing of any Rom or Radio (custom or shipped) as long as its compatable with your device and it will withstand a Hard Reset so is permanent unless overwritten by a different SPL.

Nice work.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] erebusting:
I found a link for HSPL2 1024 and it worked fine for me -mind you -it is my first time flashing a phone ever! ...worked fine without problems...

I think people just need to pay attention to the compatibility of the ROM/Radio that they are flashing...

I agree that there should be a very clear distinction in Roms/Radios which state if it is 1024/TMOUS compatible or not... I found a rom which said it was tmous compatible and it all worked fine...maybe HSPL2 1024 should be able to detect whether it is a 1024 compatible rom/radio or not ?(and then should mention it and make sure the user wants that rom/radio) ? IDK -I am a newb here so sorry if that is stupid? ....

Not available yet. Working some kinks out I believe.

Just bought a T-Mobile US HD2!! This phone's great! A little overwhelmed with the Windows Mobile OS though! Having come from Apple and Android OS, windows feels vast and am kinda lost. Trying to learn nevertheless :-)

Anyways, I HSPL'd my phone (1024MB ROM) and then installed Kumar's Custom ROM. IMO custom ROMS arent as polished as the Original ROMS are; albeit more stable.

Is there a way to flash a stock ROM back to my TMOUS HD2? Not the one I had before. But a better (read, stable) one? If yes, which one would it be?

Appreciate the help.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mskip:
What Rom did you have on your phone before flashing Kumars Custom Rom thats the real question ;)

I think the latest Stock Rom available for the 1024LEO is the 2.10 build. As the guide states you cant flash older Stock or Custom Roms or you will brick your device so I wouldnt advise doing that.

Just have to flash original rom from sdcard to remove hspl quick search will reveal the guide.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mmafighter077:
@mskip

I flashed the original HSPL that was posted for the U.S HD2's. Everything seems to work fine. I've since flashed 3 different roms through my computer. The only problem is that I can't seem to flash from my SDCARD. I have done this a million times on my Touch Pro 2 so I know how to do it. I even followed your instructions to a T.

What happens it I go to the tri colored screen (after I reset it) and it looks like it goes to another screen for a split second then it comes back to the tricolored screen. I have no idea why that is. Yes I renamed the rom to LEOIMG.

Is this one of the bugs you are trying to work out on the HSPL or am I possibly doing something wrong?

Thanks

sd card flashing from the supplied 16gb sd card usually fails. For best results try a 1gb or 2gb, 8gb 'usually' works too.

Do you need to flash from sd card? go to bootloader, what does your spl say? if it says 2.08.0000 or 2.08.hspl then you can just flash the 2.10 from usb, no problems.

have a read of this thread, see post 9
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dipaolnv:
Yep... unfortunately I flashed the 2.13 rom and didn't have an hspl installed first. My spl is 2.10.0000. I reformatted the sd card to fat32 as soon as I got the device (my second) since I had problems with my first one. I'll re-try with a different sd card later.
