After applying the lock Screen, now when i setup my exchange server it freezes my phone, then it gets stuck in a bootloop. the only way to fix is to wipe.

Any ideas. :(

Help please!

Hello, I'm using your excellent rotary lockscreen on a sprint based rom located here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=674134

Whenever I silence the phone using the volume rocker, the system settings, or the htc menu that comes up when I long-press the power button the phone crashes and reboots:

W/dalvikvm( 1100): threadid=39: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001e390)

The only way I can silence the phone is to use the lockscreen itself to do the silencing. (Vibrate mode works fine). Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

You said:

"My starting point was Fresh 2.0d, but this should work on any Sprint leak based ROM."

My rom is based on a sprint leak. Regardless, I completely understand you not wanting to support the usage of this lockscreen outside of the rom it was designed for. Mostly, I was looking for insight as I said in my comment as to how I could go about fixing this. I don't know if I would need access to your code or if it would be something as simple as finding and including a missing library. Thanks for your time and your work.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] vash8806:
can you repost the metamorph link please? this one there sends me to an "invalid link" page...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Which link. There's lots of links in this thread to lots of metamorphs. I'm unable to find any broken ones, at least that I've posted.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] vash8806:
the metamorph that is the right version...I clicked on the link..but it kept on saying that it was an invalid link...{this was a forum response}
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
That is completely ambiguous. There are links peppered through this thread. I have NO idea which one you are referring to...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] smw6180:
Anyone seen this behavior in the lockscreen yet?

The image below is what happened after a wipe/reinstall of DC 2.0.8.1. I already had this working just fine initially, and I didn't metamorph. I used the basic instructions on the clear lockscreen thread JsChiSurf posted (since I'm not using the Fresh ROM). It was working fine.

I did a wipe and reinstall and this is what it looks like now (after following the instructions again and doing it exactly the same way as the first time):

Notice the rotary portion is no longer clear...not sure what's causing that graphic honestly.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
You seem to have picked up some sort of different graphic from a theme or something? That's my best guess. The images for the rotary lockscreen are located in framework-res.apk, in the /system/framework directory, which this mod doesn't actually touch in any way.

Best bet is to pull framework-res.apk, and look in 'res\drawable-mdpi\jog_dial_bg.png' to see what the image looks like / see if it has been changed to what you are seeing for some reason.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Dude, you're killing me :D. Let's try this another way. What post number, in this thread, are you finding the referenced link?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] smw6180:
I'll take a look. It's just weird because I used the SAME framework-res.apk I used initially, and it was a fresh wipe. So...yeah. I'm at a loss.

Ok, I looked and that's definitely the case. The framework-res.apk on the phone had a jog_dial_bg.png that was different than the one I had saved on my computer. Weiiiiiirdness. Something obviously overwrote it, just have no idea what. Anyhow I swapped it with the 'good' one, and put it back on the phone. I'll reboot and that should hopefully take care of it. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. :)

Edit: Yep...all fixed after the reboot. Thanks again!

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] smw6180:
There's only 1 page and 4 posts in that thread.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
So why the short cryptic posts, and why did it take 5 tries to get this information from you? Seriously?

I see now that you're talking about the MetaMorph application itself, rather than the MetaMorphs I've posted for this mod, this too would have been more than a little helpful in addressing your question.

Why not simply conduct a search, if for whatever reason the link was broken, for 'old metamorph'? That's all I did when correcting the link, which appears to have changed when the forum got re-organized.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Sweet. Glad that's all it was :).

This is great, it took me a while to figure out how to edit in the xml file on place of the thm file in meta morph. But great job anyway
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] th3taman:
Will this work with a2sd installed? I have moved my davlik cache to my sd card too with the a2sd install. Running Fresh 2.0d.

I had some problems first time I used metamorph...a while ago before I installed a2sd. Tried to apply your metamorph file with no text and my custom wallpaper. No change happened. I did use the old metamorph app and I tried moving HtcLockScreen.apk...but was told it didn't exist? Might have done something wrong there since I was moving it on my terminal emulator?

Know of any reason why it wouldn't apply?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
a2sd should really be a non-factor, as this mod only affects content on your system partition, which is unaffected by a2sd. But, just for confirmation, I'm running a2sd as well.

When you say no changed occurred, what did you see before / after? Are you running the vanilla lockscreen or the stock HTC lockscreen?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] feefeeboomboom:
BG problem. [edit, yeah i just morphed it and no go.]

ok iv tryed twice now with DCupdater and DL the .zip.

each time i install it i get one with a bg.

its an AndroidEclair bg.. i was under the impression it was clear like the stock vanilla lockscreen and like the screen shots and video in this thread.

any ideas why this is happening?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] th3taman:
OK, not sure what I did wrong yesterday but, I was able to get the change made. However, the theme I'm using included a rotary lockscreen and I'm seeing that instead of what I wanted applied (my wallpaper) through Metamorph.

Is there anyway to push my wallpaper through the terminal or other means? Text is gone as expected...just wrong wallpaper. :confused: If I can't get the wallpaper changed, I will have to do undo this. :(

This is the theme I'm using.

[HD2 General] Raadius:
Like a lot of people on the forum, their HD2 has caused them a lot of headaches and problems. After waiting patiently from the Euro launch of this phone, my anticipation for this phone was at all time high, more so when I got my 2G iPhone. After I got it, lots of problems like phone slowdown, lag, freezing, SMS/Message App slowdown, lag and freezing. Weather tab freezing, Music player slowdown or skipping (.mp3 skip? What? lol). Data stop working, disconnecting or won't auto connect. Camera lag or slowdown, Email problems, delete email but they come back, or can't send emails. Sleep/Lock of death, phone won't wake up. Phone resets it's self on it's own and I can go on, lol.

I've done everything people have told me do here. I've kill all task, soft reset, hard reset 5x, taken the battery out, taken the memory card out etc. The only thing I haven't done (and will not do) is flash my ROM. The one thing I notice is, if I run "Today" instead of "Sense UI" the phone works fine, so that means Sense UI is buggy. I've contacted T-mobile and HTC, most recently HTC, I've talk to three different people and finally we are getting somewhere.

Here are the last 3 emails out of a total 11 emails I got back from HTC:

Members, please, contact HTC by using this link HTC Customer Service, fill out the quick information and send it, and PRESS THE ISSUE that your phone is having terrible problems. I have link them to this forum and they are READING the threads here but it's more apparent if you keep contacting them, get the message out so they can get an update out ASAP.
[HD2 General] junkdruggler:
are we really having this much trouble with our phones? I mean I understand that sense ui is laggy at times.. but if I remember to kill all my running tasks, its not that bad..

I have had a big problem with 3g connectivity but im not tech in a 3g area... but I go from h to 3g to g in the same spots my g1 has 3g.. I called and told tmo..

I mean granted this isn't a rooted android device but this is a good wm phone.. nearly everything I expected...
[HD2 General] SaintNULL:
Why not?

There are roms that are nearly identical to stock, with just bug-fixes--which seems exactly like what you want.
[HD2 General] dailydriver:
That's overkill. If I had to do all of that to my phone. I would have gotten rid of it already. The only real problem I had was my phone would not stay on 3G and my wifes phone is always on it.

I'm getting a replacement though.
[HD2 General] jas0nw0ng:
It voids your warranty and if you for some odd reason when you wake up some day within the next year and your phone doesn't turn on, and you send it back for a new one, and they find that you have a custom ROM on it, you'll have to pay full price for a new one. It's simply not worth it in my eyes to put on a custom ROM that voids the warranty of a 550 dollar phone to see Sense UI move a little bit smoother.
[HD2 General] jiggahj:
no one

No ones going to do anything if you dont complain, they'll just say that they dont have records of complaints and its not a known issue. so they cant do anything about it.

[HD2 General] Psyrecx:
The only real problems I have with tmobile is their bad coverage areas and even though they have bad coverage areas, their coverage areas are exaggerated. It says I should have web coverage in my area, but when I try to place an order for a plan they tell me that cant do it because there is no service in my area. That and I could only half hear the person on the phone because I could hear a bunch of idiots in the back ground not doing their jobs and some god awful singing. And I have to order a new sim card because they said that my sim number must have been an accidentaly reissued number because its already in use.
[HD2 General] Raadius:

[HD2 General] mystik610:
I don't know why anyone who's apprehensive to flashing ROMS is even here.

No offense, but this whole forum is built around flashing ROMS. It's one thing if you don't want to go that route, but getting on your high-horse and telling people its a bad idea to flash roms because it voids your warranty is a little much.

Most of the people here understand the risks involved with flashing roms, and anyone who really knows what they're doing knows that the risk is minimal, and that except for extreme cases (and stupidity), a phone can be brought back to stock if needed. Unless you flashed the wrong rom and bricked your device, the only reason you wouldn't be able to bring it back to stock is hardware malfunction due to physical damange...and in most cases, those aren't covered by warranty.

Most people here also know the benefits of flashing ROMS and modifying the UI to make it work, and aren't holding their breaths for a fix from HTC or T-Mobile. Most people here bought the HD2 expecting the stock ROM to suck, and knew that the only way to get it working at the level of their expectations is to flash a custom ROM. If waiting for a fix from HTC or T-Mobile is the route you want to go, then hit up the t-mobile forum, because honestly, the problems a lot of you are facing on the stock ROM, don't exist on custom ROMS. The chefs here will always be 5 steps ahead of T-Mobile and HTC.

It's not just about sense running smoother....its correcting innate problems in WM6.5 and sense that can make the device a pain in the ass to use. Its about making the OS and UI more accessible, capable, and above all, less prone to crashes and more stable!
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
+1

It's almost as if the OP was attempting a very elaborate troll. The site is called "xda-developers", not "xda-lovers".

If you are looking to mod your device within the so-called "safe" limits that HTC and T-Mobile force upon you, maybe you would be better off hanging out over at freewareppc, instead of a modding forum.

#JustSaying
[HD2 General] elbello:
+2

I can tell you that I had many of those problems and after flashing a custom rom, I've fixed my HD2 almost to perfection, not only the way it looks but stability. Only problem I keep having is 3G connection problems, and by the looks of it, its not the device anymore, seems more like T-mobile's service.
[HD2 General] joe_coolish:
I agree with both perspectives.

I flashed my phone the second day I had it. I'm new to WinMo and was a little nervous, but now I flash weekly (would be daily, but I don't want to become an addict... :D) Flashing is night and day from stock and I would never go back (unless it was warranty related).

That being said, I agree with compaining to HTC and T-MO. If there are enough people complaining, then more work will be done to fix those problem, which will lead to better/more frequent updates for the chefs to work with. That way, it's win win. I love HTC devices, they are the best, but when I accidentally dial someone, and it takes me 10 seconds to get to where I can hang up because of lag on a device that technically qualifies to run Windows XP.... That seems unacceptable to me.
[HD2 General] mystik610:
In a perfect world, a company like HTC would hear their customer's cries and devote all of their resources and attention to releasing regular updates. In the real world, HTC has released 4 phones after the HD2, and lined-up several others...they aren't interested in developing for the HD2 anymore. People have been complaining to HTC about the HD2 since it was released in Europe back in November....and they still haven't really addressed most of the concerns.

Most of the 'problems' people complain about are innate characteristics of windows mobile....You see people complaing because their phones lag or crash because they don't manage task manager, but that's an innate characteristic of a multi-tasking OS! On the other side of the fence, you have MS getting bashed for getting rid of multi-tasking in WP7...you have people bashing the iPhone for years over its lack of multi-tasking....and when they come up with a quasi-multi tasking solution, they get bashed for it not being 'true' multi-tasking!
[HD2 General] joe_coolish:
Ha! It's so true :) My wife has a myTouch and she complained that the battery life on it sucked and I said that all smartphones get worse battery life than the dumbphones she was use to. Well, one night she said that she understood that batterlife was worse on smartphones, but having to recharge your phone 2-3 times a day was getting rediculous along with the horrible unresponsiveness. Finally I took a look to see what was up, and I guess I must have forgotten to explain "task management" with her, as she had every application on the phone open and running at the same time! Poor phone took a pretty decent beating the first couple of weeks she had it

But back on topic, if HTC releases an update to its Sense UI for WinMo, it should benefit all users of Sense UI (WinMo) reguardless of what phone it's running on. So even if there are newer models, updates should work on older models. That's at least what happened with my Pioneer Navigation system. There were lots of complains about things not working (even a few posts like this on a forum) and that summer they released a newer model that used the same software so our models got the upgrade too. I'm not saying it was a "Windows 7 moment" but I do like to think that our nagging helped.

I'm all for complaining to companies if it means that they produce better quality products. If we just sit around and accept it, then QoS will go down. There must be some formula where the cost of developement is compared to the cost of responding to complaints. When complaints go up, the other adjusts itself accordingly to maximize profit. Lower complains, less developement until complaints go back up! That kind of thing.

Just my 2 cents. But over all, I'm quite happy with kumar's work. If I were still on stock, I'd be upset too.
[HD2 General] brownhornet:
This is what pisses me off about the whole issue... we ALL know what this site is about. Regardless, NO ONE should HAVE to flash a damn rom to get a phone to function like it should out of the box...especially when you have people that are spending $400+ for it. That's just plain pathetic, bs and I just couldnt go for it which was why I simply returned mine and got my money back. Flashing is cool, but not everyone comes here for new roms... some people come for software, tweaks or to figure out how to do other things.

Telling someone that they SHOULD just flash a rom and deal with it.. even though roms are nice lets just be real, almost every single one of them has SOME kind of bugs with it. That's one of the main reason I stopped doing the flash dance and chose to stick with the stock rom to begin with. But when you buy the phone and it already has bugs, YES people have the right to complain about it and want the issue resolved. That's about as dumb as buying a Mercedes with a blown header and saying.. well you should just put aftermarket headers on it anyways. Should the car just WORK when you buy it? And if it doesnt work.. you take it back and get it serviced or another car.
[HD2 General] mystik610:
That would probably be true if HTC were releasing more windows mobile based phones and updating sense for new models, but windows mobile is at the literal end of its product life cycle, and development has come to a hault. We've already seen sense updates for Android, but most of those probably won't make it to windows mobile.

Unless it becomes a public relations nightmare for HTC, I don't see them springing to the service of HD2 users....cost is the biggest reason. They've already sold us an HD2, and they've moved onto releasing several models to replace the HD2. Continuing to develop for it will do nothing to generate more revenue for them. HTC's market-share is growing significantly by constantly pushing the hardware bar higher every few months.
[HD2 General] KidTech:
I dont think these people who flash roms understand that, a phone shouldnt have so many ****in issues. It should work properly, and their is no word on whether or not T-mobile/HTC are working on an update..This completely B.S for a phone to have so many issues..I've had a dash,iphone, BB 97000 no problems..
[HD2 General] KidTech:
because i dont want a refurbished phone. I seriously think i'm done with HTC and anything they add to a phone. I will never buy a phone with Sense U.I on android only ones that dont have it. Also why cant they keep us posted on an update. Its kind of B.S that they release a phone but stop making updates or wont make any because Windows Mobile is dead.. Thats like M.S not updating XP or Vista anymore because Windows 7 is out. People bought this phone a month ago so its ****in new in the U.S and their should be updates being handed out..If not HTC i hope they fail as a company and prob will in the future. Creative destruction new companies come and old ones die just like Palm.

do u know of any other free app ?
