So, this just a dream, or what?

I was lamenting on my lack of foresight, getting a HD2 without researching the different bands that AT&T and T-Mobile use for 3G coverage, when just the other day...

NOTE: This was on a call to AT&T Support and the tech tells me:

a) Once unlocked from TMOUS, I should do a search on "AT&T APN's" and that if I search diligently, I

will find APNs on AT&T's network that support HD2 3G Bands

b) AT&T techs, right in his data center have this working.

So I research a bit, and, apart form everyone and his brother professing to be 3G Band experts, and saying all I will see is Edge if I put the HD2 on AT&T. (Which is troublesome, since Wikipedia claims Edge is being dropped to facilitate more 3G bandwidth, so potentially I would lose even THAT).

Here is what official information I could find on the two:

The U.S. T-Mobile network predominately uses the GSM/GPRS/EDGE 1900 MHz frequency-band. T-Mobile's UMTS (3G) service is now active in over 30 major US cities

Further all official documentation states that AT&T uses:

* 850 MHz UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+ 3G

* 1900 MHz UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+ 3G

Finally look at my screenshot, taken from the GSM 3G toggle on the "Settings Tab" of Manila. I KNOW this is wishful thinking, and this screen in particular is no doubt a function of the many devices NRG cooks for, but really, can anyone explain to me why this technically would NOT WORK (other than "just because", LOL)?

Possible bug?...

Hey NRGZ28... I have the Energy.Leo.23569.Sense2.5.Cookie.TMobileUSA.May.28.7z ROM installed on my phone. There might be a bug though. Check it out.

Switch your phone to horizontal mode then slide over to your photos. The orientation gets confused or something. lol

It also does this when going to the music section while in horizontal mode.

Also is there a way that I can go back to the stock sense texting format? I have tried installing the stock HTC Messaging Client cab that you have in your hotfixes section but it only gave me a lot of problems and made the phone slower again.... and actually I couldnt get it to uninstall. I had to update my ROM with your new version anyways so I just reflashed.

Let me know if you have any info on this. Thanks
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jjx808:
Has anyone who flashed the ROM with MaxSense UI been getting frustratingly random lock-ups? It's like the HTC Sense just freezes over whenever it wants to. Soft resets doesn't help much. And after numerous hard resets, I guess I'm gonna have to go back to the ROMs with regular HTC Sense. Oh well, I really liked the minimalist look of that MaxSense... too bad its so buggy.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] hidden_dragon:
If you buy the Telstra version of the HD2, the 3G bands are compatible with AT&T. Otherwise, you're reliant on 1900 mhz EDGE/GSM coverage. On AT&T, they also have a lot of 850 only areas.

can anyone help?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] k20a1:
i have the titanium nrg rom and i cant find anywhere to adjust the lengths of my vibrations when someone calls??

is there any option to adjust them or does it come naturally with that really long vibrate

i know with the stock rom i can adjust it but idk where in this rom its at

any help would be much appreiciated
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
I have this problem... but then again I have 1000+ pics... it lags in the beginning and pictures load a little slower than the album, but it'll be fine again... Maybe you just had e-mail syncing on... slows the phone quite a bit.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
I am not having the bug... Check if you added any more tweaks... since Sense does the rotation automatically. I don't know why everyone is having problems with the HTC messaging client.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
Go to ALL SETTINGS -> System -> Screen and change the text size. I can't be sure, but do that and do reset and see if it works.

The opera browser tabs problem I think is pretty obvious... you're just opening too many tabs. I personally can't see my self operating 12+ tabs on a phone.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
But this page specifically is for this rom. You need to know how to flash before. The question you asked was soo broad it pissed me off. Detail is everything in here.

You flash your rom first, because all roms are compatible with the stock.

Check the radio thread and check what this rom needs.

Make sure you have already done HSLP first.

So i did what you said, and nope it did not change the opera browser. I see that you are using the may 22nd version. Is the font on non mobile websites extremely small?

Secondly, i wrote on my post that opening even 4 caused the problem. 4 tabs should not be a problem.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] sgalbincea:
To fix the ringtone go into your ringer options and change it from other to something else.

hey guys the problem with ur dialer can be a number of things first is the cookie setup take off the cookie lock screen the other problem is having multiply tweaks active will cause issuse reboot device by hard reseting and do not enable more then 1 tweak program
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
Oh sorry, I forgot to update my sig...But I think it was the same...

The tab problem... it probably means it's a registry problem, it's allowing 4+ tabs, but opera doesn't acknowledge it.

Check the existing tweak applications, they may have one for it
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] wingtytn:
which build were u using 23 or 21
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jas0nw0ng:
i decided to hard reset my phone since it only takes like 10 mins to reconfigure everything and the tab problem is no longer an issue. Still the font is annoying, but i'll live, i can just double tap quickly everytime i open it. New problem and I think you can help me with this. What do you do to conserve battery? What tweaks on advanced config helps me conserve battery?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] wingtytn:
device standby mode and disable data the newer roms uses less energy depending on the radio and close all open apps
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
Well personally I'm not exactly conservative, but like I said before, I felt in a slight degrade of battery compared to the stock rom, it's possible it's due to the fact that I just use it more often.

I got another battery and I have up all my mail to refresh every hour. Unless I'm expecting something I use Send Receive All wizard. Also for weather you need to do the same, do it for at least an hour every refresh.

Advanced config... I don't use. But the only two tweaks I can really think of are the HTC TASK MANAGER (You can tweak memory) and the Light Sensor (but you can use the application at the start button called "Backlight")

You might be better off asking some one else,

Guys and Gals? any takes?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jas0nw0ng:
Where is device stand by mode? and disable data in advanced config? and about disable data, that will disable 3G im guessing, but I like having the internet on to receive emails. You say less energy depending on the radio. I use the 2.7.50 radio that was recommended by NRGZ28. The funny thing is, it lasts as long as it did when I had the stock TMO ROM (8 am - 5 pm, it would be near 50%). This has only been one day of testing though.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] kennyb123:
I asked this question and got a great answer - use a program called Valert. Because I don't want to search for a link... I'll just attach it here.

It turns your ring vibration into a MUCH more desirable pattern and auto-loads in the background, even after a reset. ENJOY EVERYONE!
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] pandaxownage:
much thanks
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Rimidal:
Flashed Dinik styled ROM. Runs very smooth. Thanks, NRG. Battery life is great.

In 14 hours of use (00:00 - 14:00) 76% left.

Radio: 2.10.50.08_2

ROM: 31 May 23569
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Blairware:
Interesting choice of words!

Sorry, the the "Uses less ENERGY" had me laughing. OF COURSE if you

use less energy

you will consrve battery, but we are here to "

use MORE Energy

" Thats the whole point of this thread! LOL! :D
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] shiltz:
I think you misunderstood my issue, my MP3's work perfectly fine and I can play them for hours without issue if the phone is plugged in and doesn't turn off the screen and go to sleep, it's when they screen turns off when it stops playing music which it should, actually it seems to stop every single thing on the phone as the flashlight app also turns off when the phone goes to sleep which it didn't on the stock rom, and while it's not a big deal for the flashlight it completely cripples the phone as an mp3 player.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] donwonlee:
something is absolutely destroying my battery life. it seemed like the battery life was great when i first flashed. i using cookie 23569 and radio 2.10.50.26. any ideas what it could be? i went down to 70% in less than 3 hours and i hardly even touched my phone.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jas0nw0ng:
Similar problem, but I have my active sync set to "as it arrives" and weather to every 30 minutes, location service settings to on, and AGPS to off. I do text a lot though and occasionally surf the internet.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Blairware:
One other thing you can try

There is VERY likely to be an Opera setting or tweak you can apply to resolve you small font issue - Opera has tons of settings and tweaks. Just put opera:config in the address bar for access to a plethora of options. When you make sense of them, uh, let me know cause I get a bit overwhelmed by these. :eek: I think if I could backup my current settings, I would experiment a bitmre freely.

Chef made a cab to undo a font change several months ago. He switched to a Tahoma font; and even though I like the font itself, it

was

a bit small. I have used this cab several time on newer versions of the ROM, and it always makes the font size larger, in my experience. If it effects Opera, I can not say. But if you apply the cab, and the result is undesirable, you should be able to uninstall it without having to hard reset

again.

Even with a "process" down to 10 minutes, there are only so many hard resets a person can handle, LOL! By the way, 10 minutes. is pretty impressive, I have a LOT of tweaks that I apply, and the best I have been able to automate everything STILL leaves me with easily 30-40 minutes of setup time on a new ROM, including all the app installs)

Just go to the Add-ons Link on the first page of this thread, go to: "Return 2 Stock CABs" and look for "NRGZ28_Tahoma_Font_Restore.cab" I am attaching the file. I provided the link in case you are the paranoid tyoe, LOL! Let us know if you use it and have desirable results.

Link to cab

[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jas0nw0ng:
Thanks, but I have already restored the font. That was the first thing I noticed when I flashed the ROM was the change in font so I searched through his files and found the font restore, that does not fix the problem unfortunately. Do you have this problem with the small font? I even did another hard reset today before I drove to school and checked if it was something I did to my phone. So as soon as i hard reset, I ran opera and it was still small. I then installed the original Opera browser from theme and apps section of the regular HD2 and it was still small (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=653563, it's not the same as the stock Opera). And my battery still isn't as strong as other people say (someone just said in 14 hours, it went down to only 74%)
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] USNCorpsman:
is there an sms/mms app or something that would allow me to send pictures that i take w/ the hd2 camera without having to go through the manual resize every single time, and would not permanently resize the images? other than that i haven't found much that needs improvement on this rom, it's fast and stable! i made a good first choice of cook since coming over from the G1 :) keep up the outstanding work!
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jas0nw0ng:
I've been reading the other Energy ROM forum on the other HD2 forum and they break it down to radios. Rimidal is claiming 14 hours and it only lost 24% and he is using radio 2.10. I am using radio 2.07 and the battery drained 10% in 2 hours and i only sent 2 texts. Is the radio for 2.10.50.08 that much better? I hear 2.08 is also much good too, something like 2 days with a full charge. Can anyone confirm this?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] sgalbincea:
The 2.10 radio for me has been WAY better here in Houston. I went a full 48 hours over the weekend on a single charge.

...and I work in IT so email was flowing pretty regularly. :D

[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
From where are you exactly listing to music from.

Are you playing music from slacker radio?

Because when the phone goes to sleep, your wifi is disabled... So you can not download anything.

If you are playing from your phone, it's possible you did some sort of memory clearing application that seems to shut the music down.

The flash light application turns off to conserve battery.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Metallic-Force:
Like he said, AGPS and Location... Also, e-mail, weather.

Check you have auto backlight, and you have decent display settings (screen dim after 30 sec, screen shut off after a min)

I'm having some issues... not that bad.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] hidden_dragon:
It's gonna be area dependent. I say try each one for a couple of days then stick with the best one.

Really?

Dude, you sure you have the phone turned ON? LOL! Holy moley, you can not possibly be USING the phone and seeing that kind of battery life.If I get 8-10 hours of use on a charge I consider myself lucky. Maybe you forgot to mention that you bought a 2350 mAh Battery? At that draw rate (assuming the rate stayed constant) you would expect to have a 35 hour run time. Please excuse my skepticism, but that claim just seems too good to be true!

Microsoft SMS view over Sense SMS

I just upgraded to the HD2 from my ATT Fuze, love it, and always used the Energy ROMs.

I used Sense 2.1 on there an I had a manila file that I would copy too the windows folder to get me back to the original Microsoft SMS screen whenever you click on an SMS from Sense.

However it does not work for Sense 2.5. I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to get back to the Windows SMS view?

Thanks everyone!

Strange. What OS are you running?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jas0nw0ng:
See that's the thing. You claim to only get 8 hours and I think you are using 2.10.50.28_2 like sgalbincea (you're signature says 08_2, but I dont think there is a radio with that number. sgalbincea gets 48 hours and you get 8 and he says he is using his HD2 actively. That's a huge damn difference, so either because you 2 possibly live in different areas, it's really messing with your battery or, "heavy" use is extremely relative. I define moderate use is sending and receiving a total of 150 texts, using the internet for an hour and leaving active syncing my email to "as items arrive" which yields around 20 emails. All of this within 8 hours. This is moderate use. Heavy would be x3 of everything (which is not unusual, my brother claims he sends and receives around 1500 texts in a span of 1.5 hours)

playing mp3's on the memory card thru kinoma play, it doesn't shut down the player or anything, it simply pauses the music and as soon as I hit the power button to wake up the phone it un-pauses and continues playing, i'm assuming some power saving feature is doing it just like the flashlight, problem is it makes the phone not useable as an mp3 player and it's not something that happened with the stock rom.
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] jas0nw0ng:
in BSB tweaks, what does the increase in glyph cache and tcp/ip cache do? Does it affect the speed of loading a page? and/or images? Does it decrease battery life? Basically, I want to optimize the speed of the HD2, but does the CHT Energy ROM basically maximize the speed of everything already?
[T-Mobile HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Development] Rimidal:
Yes I'm using it, but not at full throttle. I've made and received several calls, updated weather a couple of times and browsed a web for 20 minutes or so over wifi. No GPS activity.

Tested it a little more. In 24 hours there is 39% left. Still not bad.

PS: Is there any confirmed battery calibration method? If I get one, I can make a more thorough testing.

PPS: I forgot to mention, that I use Lumos as an autobacklight solution. On my previous phones it also made my batteries to work longer.
