Swype and Keyboards

I keep seeing this all over the forum; Just in case, I figure some folks don't realize this, but the SIP/Keyboard icon you see at the center of the bottom bar, has different contact points. Clicking on the center and right side of it, do 2 different things. So in other words, you aren't doing the same thing and getting different results. Rather, your finger tip is making contact with one of different points on any given tap. Click on the center of it and you pull up the currently selected keyboard. While the currently selected keyboard is on-screen, click on the right side edge of the icon and you bring up the options for the currently selected keyboard. Sucks that this button is set up this way (one small button to do different things) and it seems to be worse on our flashed 6.5.x roms that Swype doesn't fully support yet (Swype not fitting right, also effects Resco Explorer 2010 and a few other programs I've noticed so far).

I don't know if anyone has tried it, but SlideIt is another Swype like app that not only uses less memory, but is also lightning fast all the time. It fits the screen right on Kumars rom too. But I have to say, it's nowhere near as pretty to look at as Swype. Even the tracing line it creates is thick and kinda ugly compared to Swype. But it is very fast and it does get most words correct just like Swype. So I've been using both of them a lot and I've also noticed a HUGE difference, most of all with Swype; that if you type/swipe, very quickly, Swype will perform much better....which is a good thing all around......

EDIT: Another point about the keyboard icon; When you're inputing into any app/screen and you then want to minimize the keyboard, you should aim your finger to tap on the left side of the icon rather than to the right side which will annoy you by bringing up the options screen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] secano:
oh, the 3 contact points...didn't realize it still had that:p thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
I edited my post because after checking again, I'm not sure if it's 3 or 2 contact points but it has at least two for sure (center and right side edge):D

And just a reminder for anyone new reading this. Kumars roms are not the problem when it comes to Swype not fitting/sitting right at the bottom. The current versions of Swype, do not support Windows Mobile 6.5.x with the thicker bottom bar. It was designed for the older 6.5 that the stock HD2 roms use. And further sadness, you may find some of your apps will behave just like Swype, when Swype is the current keyboard. As I mentioned before, When Swype is my current keyboard, Resco Explorer 2010 (lastest version build on their site) will not fit right at the bottom just like Swype.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
I normally get this after a missed call and or after there are 2 or 3 different notifications (missed call, email and sms).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] planetkaren:
Do you have to re-run HSPL 1024 after doing a Task29?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
In the boot loader screen, I see that the HSPL is still the same so it appears to be that you do not have to. However after I read one chef say to do so after Task29, I've been doing so again and I don't see any harm or difference. So to answer your question as best I can, I would say it's overkill but I would prefer to be safe than sorry. I'm sure Kumar or someone else can correct me if I'm mistaken. But again, all of my steps have worked without out fail on 3 different US T-Mobile HD2's with Kumars roms.

EDIT: I Didn't realize that you were asking about fully going back to stock?! Step number 2 (select the 2.08.000) puts your device back the way it was. And then if in the future you wanted to flash another non stock rom, you would have to use HSPL and select 2.08.HSPL.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] napoleontheruler:
how do i enable it then. i want my home screen to auto rotate. can anyone tell me how to unistall the .netcf that comes on the rom cause i get an error that says access is denied.

running kumars 1.9 premium
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
running 1.9 premium and i didn't notice that before because i hadn't tried it but YES that does happen to me too :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] vplaza96:
Unfortunately, I'm running Lite, so can't help you. And I'm guessing you'll probably need to flash to a ROM that doesn't have .net framework cooked into the ROM. But that's just a guess.

Will a 2.10.50 radio work with classic 1.9 or do I have to flash back to 2.08.50?

What's the little gold cd-rom looking icon in the taskbar at the top?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
i think its supposed to be a speaker?

when you have a ringer on the symbol is yellow with a black background.

silent is yellow circle with red background

vibrate is the phone with action wave things lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
sorta off topic but does anyone get filesys.exe randomly taking up ALOT of cpu %? it makes my hd2 lag hardcore. i believe thats why my screen sometimes wont actually light up even though my buttons do. sucks if im the only one but if im not is there anything kumar can do to fix it in the next version?!? :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] joeyyungrocks:
Has anyone had problems with the phone going into lock whenever your on a call?

I keep having to unlock it after a long call.

I don't have lock after call on.

Is it standby lock that is causing it? Is there a way to have both standby lock and not lock on long calls?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gattaca714:
Im currently running 1.7 and have an issue of receiving the same text message 4 times in a row.

Tmobiles problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thegraydorian:
Hi,

I just booted the 1.9 Lite version. You noted that the Lite version would not include Visual Voicemail. I noticed after booting the ROM that Visual Voicemail was included. Did you intend the Lite ROM to include Visual Voicemail or has it stayed on my phone from a previous flash?

I have also been experiencing problems with Youtube (both with 1.8 Classic and 1.9 Lite). Can't connect to videos whether Im on the network or Wifi and screen goes black when shifted to landscape.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] famewolf:
2.10.50 works fine with 1.9 premium here.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] henryblank:
Can I flash the radio 2.10.50 after being on 1.9P ? Does it matter what order you flash?

Also - will I have to re-configure all my settings after upgrading the radio ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] famewolf:
You can install a radio only flash either before or after unless you don't have a compatible radio for the rom you are installing....in that case you should do the radio first and the radio flash has nothing to do with your settings.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] aznboilnoodles:
Has anyone experienced any lag in v1.9 Classic version? My phone feels a little laggy after flash. I never experienced it in v1.8. Or maybe it is just me? Please confirm. Thank You
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] DeekoVB5:
*sigh* so I switched to Classic. It was working better than Lite, and just as I decided I was going to keep this one for a few weeks and did all my in-depth setup....it forgot my Exchange PIN and is threatening me with an erasure of my data.

I guess I'll be going to Energy until we get 2.0....

The Titanium Version 1.9 is uploaded and online now.

Just when I thought all was lost, our fearless leader returns with Titanium!

Downloading now...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
I know that someone has said what titanium is but can someone be specific to what the differences between this rom and say the premium version of kumars rom are? I am currently on premium and i already like it so i dont know if its worth going to titanium.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] joe_coolish:
Titanium = Windows Mobile 6.5 w/o Sense UI
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] vplaza96:
If you like Sense, then you may not like Titanium. Here's a screenshot of my home page after flashing to Titanium:

No Home screen tabs (weather, stocks, facebook, twitter, etc.), no HTC Messaging app (yay!), no co0kies, etc. Essentially, you work with Windows Mobile, not Sense, so things are not where you normally expect them to be.

On the plus side, none of the Sense baggage, more available memory, and snappier.

I'm guessing Titanium is not for those who have never really worked in WinMo before because Sense actually does a good job of simplifying a lot of things.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cu2cool:
What's the difference between Titanium and the regular today home screen w/out sense? You get to customize it more?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] miclflores:
I was using 1.8 premium and the phone would occasionally not wake up when the screen was off. Sometimes it was plugged in, other times it wasn't. I'm not sure, but it seemed to happen when I received text messages. Just flashed 1.9 and will see if this continues.

On another note. What icons were used in 1.8. Prefer them over what's in 1.9. I will do a search on how to switch the icons, but if anyone has the link handy I would appreciate it. Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MirasHD2:
You're right. I tried Titanium and I didn't like it. I couldn't find my way around since this is my first WinMo Phone I didn't know where to look for things. I like Sense too much. Went back to V1.9 Premium!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] vplaza96:
Yep, Sense isn't bad really. It's why the HD2 wasn't panned too badly by reviewers. If it came with Titanium only, I think the reviews would have been way more negative.

I don't mind it at all, so I may stick with it for a while. Until 2.0 comes out, I guess. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] vplaza96:
Titanium is simply a Home option that overrides the normal Home options you get with Windows Mobile. It brought a Zune-like interface to the device but that's only from the Home section.

Actually, you have more customization options using the standard Home screen with Windows Mobile without Sense.

whats PagePool Changer.exe

When I extracted this ROM, I see PagePool Changer.exe

What is that? do I need to run it manually?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] typerlover:
hey im new to winmo entirely. did the 1.9 premium. love the phone way better now but i have major problems at least for myself. #1 i want my transformer movies back, i havent seen the sequel yet so that was a big plus for me.

#2 i keep getting a "memory low" message that keeps asking me to clear out stuff to make room.

all i have installed is skyfire. i cleared some caches but still no luck. can anyone help me with this? the message appears almost every time i do something. it constantly tells me to delete text messages but i kno this phone can hold unlimited text messages. please correct me if im wrong. i came from a linux based nokia smartphone and it held unlimited, it was also much less in hardware spec.

thanks for ur help. i cant locate a file search, only explorer which has no search function
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] planetkaren:
Thanks! Was trying to figure this out. I have sound set to automatic (silent/vibrate during appointments) but I don't think the icon ever changes with that setting.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
not sure about the second one but your transformer movies should still be on your phone but since you flashed the link to it is no longer there. if you go to file explorer and go to your storage card there should be a transformers folder with both movies in them. if you just click it it should just play. also the search function is there. click the windows logo, then the tools, then it should be the last icon on the right column called search phone.

and your welcome planetkaren

where's the viberate when typing?

HI, I cant seem to find enable vibrate when typing. Where is it on this ROM??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] vplaza96:
From the first page of this thread:

I have disabed keyboard vibration for better battery life. You can Enable keyboard vibration by changing registry,

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\ezsip]

"VibrationEnabled"=1
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] richsark:
Ok. wow.. does this really save lots of battery??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] typerlover:
wonderful! but for some reason when i try to access the 16 gb card it doesnt show. i can only access My Device and thats the only option. i am thoroughly becoming sad. an annoying message full problem and now a lack of transformer movies...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] blooregard_q_kazoo:
got a weird one, upgraded to 1.9, did a hard reset afterwards, and without installing any cabs, if i go to the phone dialer, and press the keypad symbol on the bottom (middle, which hides the dial pad), the screen locks partly in place.

and when u try scrolling through the contacts on the dialer, it goes all crazy.

not sure how to describe it, but i can close out just fine, but it happens everytime, like a graphics glitch...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jabbawalkee:
man kumar...what is up with the new tab icons? Theyr'e really ugly. Can you post a cab to restore stock tab icons please?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] richsark:
This maybe a dumb question:

Do you by chance have the usb cable attached and selected Disk drive?

If so, unplug the USB cable.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
i dont see this is as dumb. its either this, you messed up ur sd card, or the sd card is not inserted(correctly)

Hi,

Is there a way to get a simple black wall paper that goes all the way up?

If someone has one, please post. I know I am plain. But all black look sleek and the calendar appointments are easier to read.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] richsark:
I dont know what the other ones look like, but I kinda dont like the ones that are there now. especially the calendar one.

task manager

i know you can view processes but can you not end them like you can in a normal windows task manager? my sense ui locks up sometimes but my windows works so i was wondering if i could end the manila.exe i believe and restart it so sense will reboot?!?!

EDIT:

alright so i figured out how to use arkswitch to see manila.exe... options exclusions and remove. before i mess up my phone or something though... thats the actual exe for htc sense right? ill prob try it next time it freezes but if its not the right exe then i hope i see someone say so before then....

what exactly does the H represent? is it suppose to resemble 3g?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
Do you have a Micro SD Card adapter? If so, insert your 16GB card into it and then select all of your data on the card and cut/move (not copy) all of your data into a folder on your desktop. Then right click on the card from My Computer: Properties> Tools> Error Checking and let it run. Then Do a format (restore default settings checked) by another right click. Then move back all your data to the card.

Also on the first page of this thread (bottom of the 3rd post), is Kumar's Transformers.cab, which you can install, which will create the Transformers Icon in your Start Menu. Now as long as you still have the movies in their original folder name and location on your SD Card, then all will work just like stock.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
Have you found one yet, or are you still looking? HD Wall can do what you want. Just use it to create a Wallpaper cab on your desktop, and then install it on your phone. If you have issues, let me know and I'll try to make one for you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] typerlover:
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...

Man I really wish I could learn all this stuff quick, those icons are wonderful! And I really enjoy Kumar's ROM. It's stability and improved features are almost flawless. Despite there being noticeable bugs, all the other enhancements really really out weigh all the bad. The slider stuck issue is no longer present on Kumar's ROM either, at least I haven't gotten it yet!! Fantastic!

I want to do the icons like that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] typerlover:
Thanks so much on the Transformer help. Sadly I do not have a SD adapter present. But I will try your suggestions. I've lightly red about faulty micro SD cards too.

Also whats the difference between copying and cutting, just a curious question.

Thanks agian very helpful to a new comer!

Cutting is when you MOVE the file you want.

Just some feedback on the Titanium ROM.

Pretty solid and stable so far. No major issues. SMS and MMS sending receiving works. Lots of RAM available even after installing all my cabs, which is nice. Even after installing SPB Mobile Shell, I'm running almost 305M available memory. With V1.9 Lite, I was running around 265M.

However, oddly, it seems slower than V1.9 Lite. Seems like Opera comes up and responds a tad slower. Typing on the on fulle QWERTY keyboard also seems a bit more sluggish than V1.9 Lite. Odd because you'd think that without the extra baggage of Sense, it should fly, but it doesn't.

I know that not everyone will like Titanium because it is so different from Sense and lacks a lot of the cool features/functions, but I like it. Just wish that it was a bit quicker and also want to find some good Titanium add-ons to make it a little more functional.

Just wanted to provide some feedback for you.

True Facts on Static on calls and FIX

Hi,

I am using this ROM, so far so good, except that annoying static in the line when the person talks or stops talking.

I tried 8 different radios and all have the same issue. I suspect its something on the ROM like this file I have been reading about rilphone.dll and wave... .dll( something like that)

Would this be true? I mean what is really the true way of getting rid of that darn static.

The one that was really great was that test ROM from tmobile 2.11.

That ROM's issue had a bad echo on the calls and made the volume too loud. Even with the volume all the way down.

Is there anything I can do/try to see which rilphone.dll works? Does anyone have a list to try one by one?

lastly how do you replace/backup the current one, It wont let me copy paste out of phone to my desktop.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] IllusiveDreams:
Actually I dont have ANY music on my phone yet. The device is fairly new as well, so not much in the way of pictures or documents either. As far as settings, it was mainly rearranging tabs, email settings, twitter and facebook settings as well as a few apps installed from the marketplace.

I did follow the instructions to the letter. Actually got it down I think, since Ive done it a few times now trying different ROMs. Thanks for the links to the stock ROM, im sure Ill need that at some point.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
I've noticed that copying large files and or a large group of files, takes longer, most of the time. I don't know if this is just on my Windows 7 Sony Vaio, but I have tested and found this to be true for me. Also on the HD2, using Resco File Explorer (hands down, the best file explorer) you will notice copying large files/groups, is also slower than moving them. I'm sure someone who knows better than i can explain how all this has to do with what the OS does with data as it moves it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
You mentioned that you installed a few apps from the marketplace. I am just wondering if you meant that you did this before testing out the flashed rom?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
It only took 5min, so no worries. Here is a solid black HD2 Wallpaper image. Just place it in your My Documents My Wallpaper folder and select it as Weather Wallpaper (if you want the weather animation) or select it as Animated if you want no weather animation. Also I created a solid black HD Wall, wallpaper cab, but I'm now realizing that there may not be a need for it, on top of the solid black image?! The HD Wall cab is supposed to stretch any image you use, across the entire screen, top to bottom. But with black, I don't think you need to stretch because black is the default color of the top and bottom bars unless I'm missing something here?!

My Skyfire webbrowser has stopped working completely, it launches but doesn't load any webpages.

Hi, I installed the hdwall stretch thingi then put in your cab.

I dont have a complete black. You will notice where it shows 3G t-mobile, there is a slight greyish tone.

Can that be corrected?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AshMa:
Yes: Go to this page; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=584415 and download and install the cab Touch X remove top curtian.cab, which is near the top of the first post.

Also if you want to remove (or write anything you want) the T-Mobile text from that same place, from your home screen: Menu> Co0kies Home Tab Editor> Miscellaneous settings> Then scroll all the way down to Custom operator text and in the input field, enter a space and then hit OK.

Edit: Looking at your screen again, I'm wondering if you're using Kumar's V1.9P? And if not then you'll need Co0kies Home Tab 1.7.1 installed to remove the 3G T-Mobile text, unless you can find another way somewhere on the forums I'm sure there's a way.
