actually, it looks like the wallpapers do not match. best thing to do i ensure that lockscreen and home wallpapaer is the same. this will make sense match the top and bottom bars. i wil look at my walpaper configs and see why it's doing this.

i'll have an updated rom up tomorrow with 23569 and the wallpapers fixed up. as for the clock, this is the style i prefer, you can change back to the flip clock from the homescreen menu. if you want a different analogue clock then you'll have to use a c00kie patch to update the clock.

Cant even edit my info on RC3.

Any time I call anyone I get a little pink square on the screen
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
MIght wanna take this release off, its full of bugs...biggest one Ive came across was that I am not getting any sms. I can send but not receive
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
ok lemme work on it some more and i'll cook a new one soon. i have a couple of weeks off work so will have time to work through it all.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
yeah i'm not sure about this one, it doesn't seem to have any functional impacts. i'll look into fixing that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
what info are you trying to edit?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jakobdroid:
this has been working great for me, haven't had any problems other than i cannot compose an email. when i click the button from my email tab, it just takes me to my inbox, and when i click 'new' inside my email app, nothing happens
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jakobdroid:
use bsb, enable myinfo
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
ah yes under tools there is an app called bsb tweaks. you can enable the owner info in there.

I'll test that email issue and resolve today.

expect an rc4 very soon.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] romeo0119:
Yes I did that, but what I'm talking about is when you are in sense under people tab. If u hit all ppl, the very first entry is your own info, usually tapping on it will let u put your info like names, email, phone, anni ect and let u log in facebook. That is not working with the RC3 build.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
ok i see what you mean. back to the drawing board lol tis is why they are release candidates. They are more refined inn general than my first beta's but it seems some of the latest packages in RC3 are a bit unstable.

I will look at these and cook an rc4 shortly. i am working on three currently know bugs, the pink bits in the call screen which is now resolved, the send email issue and this issue with editing my info.

those two i will be working on non stop until i have an RC4 ready for release. hopefully then i can consider an actual release :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
RC4 Up Now!

Ok peeps, RC4, my final Release Candidate is up now. all reported and known issues resolved.

Most packages are new Huashan packages with some merged with other dll's etc for stability. This rom is a mixture of everything new as possible with only older files or packages used to enable stability and functionality.

This rom views with new clean interface based on Huashan and Chucky's kitchen packages.

Tested all night with no degredation over time, further testing today and a release for you to load and check out.

I believe this is probably the newest and most stable rom yet with great speed.

Pagepool is 14Mb down from the usual 21mb. (this can be changed with the pagepool tool readily available on xda here).

Hope you enjoy, thankyou all of those who loaded these roms and helped find any bugs. I have worked hard to ensure no more issues exist and hopefully there will be minimal before i can prepare a full release.

I will package a lite and heavy rom, most people seem to prefer this ready to go rom and i will prioritise that with a lite rom cooked for those others who deserve some attention for thier efforts in testing my roms. As my appreciation this lite rom will be build as a "vanila" build for you to customise to your hearts content.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] iandy1:
Thanks Norgan.

Less than a week with the HD2, HardSpl done yesterday.

Will download and test tomorrow (1:05 AM for me).

Thanks again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
Only bug Im finding is that when Im on the phone with someone I cant bring up the keypad... but Im about to task29 since I didnt this time around and see if that fixes anything. Also the MMS fix has to be applied manually too
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
yeah sorry left the mms pacjage out, will include in next build. i;ve not had the keypad problem.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
it is a MUST to task 29 with this rom or youre going to have weird problems. Must be the new drivers or something. Now Im trying to figure out why my secure box doesnt work ( havent task29'd) After I reflash hopefully it'll work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] prince13:
i have radio 2.08.50.08_2

is this the latest or atleast is this the one required for this rom??

I am actually new that this flashing stuff..i dont understand this whole radio thing and one more thing that i dont understand is what is the 23569 number?? what does that number represent???

i have a hd2 from tmobile.

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
Hi Prince,

So there are a few points to look at:

1. 23569 is the Microsoft Windows Mobile/Phone build number - in this case it's 6.5.5 which has the start menu at the bottom for thumb friendly use, it also includes threaded emails and messages and office 2010.

2. Radio is the bit that controls your 3g, phone bluetooth and wifi. Different users report differing signal strength and battery usage with different radios. with

the tmobile Us you need to be very careful to flash one tha is compatible, usually the .50 bit of the version number means it's TMOUS compatible. I suggest 2.09 minimum and i am now running 2.10.50.19_2. it is the newest available. Radio gets flashed seperate to the rom or operating system.

3. Rom base, i.e. this is built on 2.11, this is a TMOUS factory rom, the drivers and some packages are extracted from this to ensure all hardware works properly. there is a new ship rom version 2.13 which i have used for my next rom. bascially in general newer rom base means better performance and or battery life as well as various factory bug fixes.

The newer doesn;t always mean better but usually that's the point of using them other than new looks. I try to use newest possible and will roll back to older packages or drivers to get full functionality.

I hope this has helped clear up. there is also plenty of info around if you use the search function of the site.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
No problems with this except you need to manually input the HTC messaging files in order to get the secure box working. Interested in seeing you get 2.13 to work with regular screen use
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
I just replaced the files to make the secure box work and it didnt work...Do you have a newer version of HTC messaging or something??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] prince13:
Thanks Alot Norgan. I tried going through the sticky posts but i was having hard time understanding it so i thought i would ask.

Thanks again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] prince13:
Another thing that i wanted to know what how do i tell which rom will work on my Tmobile HD2? I know they would come in to this forum but looking at numbers how wud i that this wouldnt brick my phone?

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
anything built on 2.x roms are tmous compatible. if they are built on 1.7x base then they are for the international hd2.

also they will use the term TMOUS in the title of the rom thread usually.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
yeah it's the new package from huashan, i will have a 2.13 rom ready soon. doing final testing on it now, been running all day and so far so good.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
NorgzRom 2.13.N0R.6Z - Release rom.

Ok so i have been working with 2.13 for a few days now, replaced the touch drivers so we have the nice scrolling as in 2.10.

With a mixture of Chucky's kitchen bits, Huashan, and 2.13 Tmo rom i beleive i have a reasonably stable and bug free rom.

One thing is you need to go into xdaShutdown and set the long end key shortcut. (i am unsure of the registry setting for this).

Other than that calls, texts, emails and other general funtionality seems good. Rom had no SOD overnight and battery life has been reasonable. This rom has a slightly larger pagepool of 26mb, i have included the pagepool lchanger for you to adjust if desired.

What else, i think thats pretty much it, i have left out the demo games and some of the tmo stuff, there is a cab available for the new swipe, i found it didn;t work so well so left it out of this rom.

The phone canvas is the 2.13 2g package with the position fix.

OEMXIPKernel, and oem drivers are all from 2.13 aside from the touch and touch3d drivers.

Hope you guys enjoy this, please let me know if you find anything not working or missing as i don't use this with Tmobile.

Will upload shortly, just making sure i have the allowance to do so as i am on wireless.

Analog clock

hey Norg....

I could swear you discussed the clock in this thread...why you have the analog clock you display...and how ot change change it. I can't find that discussion in this thread. Did you discuss it somewhere else????:o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Datfoooo:
Has this been released? I want to test it....thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
Secure box still doesnt work.... -_-
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jhaggz:
so which is the newest for hd2?? the 1st download link with 4.0 or the 2nd download link
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
it's the c00kie clock that i chose to include. i imagine you can check the c00kie hometab editor thread for how to change. or the lite version will be uploaded shortly which has just basic stuff and can be modified to your liking.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
hi kinskeme, can you give me more details as to what exactly your trying to do, the messaging client i use is now the one fromm 2.13. (HTCMessaging client 1.5.20142622+HTCMessage 1.09.281.2).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
the first link is my last release candidate version which was up to version 4.

for the final release i have iused a slightly different versioning format to help identify the base rom better.

2.13.N0R.6Z is the latest release.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
when i press secure box nothing happens. I cant set up VIPs or anything. Its there I just cant use it
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sableshanae:
WIFI!!!!

Where is the wifi!!???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
Seriously? lol

go to settings then wireless controls, the wi-fi option is there with all the advanced options from the huashan. all the ip and wireless info as well as refresh ip options are all there.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sableshanae:
I did that. It is dimmed out. Wont let me click on it. I know i sound like a nimwit...but this is my 4th Custom ROM...love it by the way. But the WIFI is disabled for some reason.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
wow, ok i don't know what to say. i've had no reports of this.

have you done a task 29 before flashing? maybe you have an old driver file conflict or something. This is using 2.13 base, it will be well worth doing a task 29 and then reflash this rom.

sorry that's all i can suggest.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sableshanae:
GOT IT working now!!!....lol. Sry :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
good to hear, only other thing i was going to suggest was your radio version. hope you enjoy the rom.

as always let me know if anything doesn;t work. i'll add the secure box issue to current known bugs and look into that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sableshanae:
This is the best ROM ive flashed so far..minus the secure box issue!!!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sableshanae:
THEMES.

Are there any themes that can be added??? Just options other than the Classic Blue and the Norgz default.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
i leave the default themes out. you can download and add any theme you wish.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sableshanae:
I wasnt sure. Thankz!! Also...every time I send a text message it gives me a notification that it was sent successfully even thought i have turned off the Reports. Can this be changed???

Secure box and cab issue

Hey Norgan, great rom. Same problem with secure box, found cab for secure box but it wont let me install. Any ideas? Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] oteg314:
secure box and cabs

Found a few other issues. Cant install some cabs, like kumars transformers cab, found a cab to enable secure box and cant install that, and some other ones, phone just says installation unsuccessful. Also, when in certain programs, like notifications, the highlighted item or current ring tone is blank. Thanks!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
i found cabs were not installing at one point, i found a soft reset resolved that. i'm begining to think the 2.13 rom is a little buggy.

let me know if a soft rest doesn't resolve anything. i may look at building a slightly older build for stability.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] refuge27:
hi

I'm finding that after a few hours or after launching programs my phone comes to a complete stop i have to soft reset after that it works but same issue a few hours later having crashes with ark switch usage as well on the 2.13 build
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
i have not had this myself, have you done a task 29 before loading the rom. this is suggested.

as for the 2.13 rom, it's looking to have brought up some issues, i am considering doing a 2.10 build shortly.

right now i am cooking in fixes for the sms sent notification and a different phone canvas to help with stablity.

will do some testing on it and upload a new build once i am certain some improvments have b een made.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
2.13.1 On It's way

fixed secure box, long end key press + more, check post 3 for bugs and fixes.

Full uploading now, lite cooking.

This should resolve any outstanding issues. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] refuge27:
hi

Well, i always do a task 29 so that's it and after long use it seams to slow down and come to a complete stop
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
hmm ok is that the lite or full build?

i have an updated build uploading now too, it may help. what radio version are you using?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
2.13.1 All uploaded to VBN Files

2.13.1 is the latest build, it resolves the secure box, long end key press, sms sent notification and hopefully the other issues reported by some users.

Links in second post, both files are on my vbn share and i have removed all other builds to avoid confusion.

Hope you guys enjoy.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
Whats the diff between the light and full versions other than the obvious
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] refuge27:
KingSkeme

The light version is striped down to the basics no themes most software removed ect... it's made more for stability and smoothness not for looks and such hope this helps .. that and a lot of people like to use a lot of different aspects this allows you to use what you want

btw nor I'm using radio 2.10 and the new rom has not given me any trouble yet so maybe it's fixed we will see :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sableshanae:
Radio change.

So is it best to change to the 2.10 radio for the newest release?? And im still a little unclear on the task29.....is it not included in the ruu file???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] refuge27:
hey

nor just wondering where you got that shutdownxp application it's really nice
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kblikefly:
thx a lot for sharing this~~~
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
shutdownxp was used in my diamond rom, was playing with xdashutdown but yeah i agree with you shutdownxp is nice.

i would reccomend 2.10 radio, it;s what i am using.

The lite has the phone canvas and taskbar icons remove as well as any "extra" applications. it will be your best bet if you wish to customise it more to your liking.

what

The task 29 thing is listed in the rom thread and more info can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=644781

i think that answers everyone lol

And your very welcome on the sharing thing, I am happy to share what is essentially a rom built to how i want it with the latest possible packages that work. just glad others can enjoy what i have cooked.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
I like the new release...everything is pretty stable. I had some syncing problems with google but Im thinking its on their end and also sometimes when I pull up the dialer things get a lil weird but its nothing to worry about too much.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
yeah i saw a couple of dialer glitches so went back to the huashan dialer with the modded dll's.

I am not so sure about this 2.13 build, looking forward to somme future updates that may help resolve some of this. it's a shame that HTC don;t work harder on delivering quality software to thier awesome hardware :/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
Yeah hopefully Android gets ported soon (haha) I wish HTC released better stuff too.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
lol that doesn;t seem so far off now actually, call me silly though cause i actually like windows mobile, always have. My preference is to have a mini computer in my pocket, the calls i make are very few, mostly my phone gets used as a mini internet and navigation tablet.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dbiggss:
Opera 10 and RSS Viewer

First of all, I have to thank you for this ROM, it is absolutely spectacular. I started hating the HD2 after having the touch screen issues from the T-Mobile update. Now that I have flashed this ROM, not only am I enjoying the HD2 again, but it is farrr better than before.

The only thing I would like to change on mine is Opera and the RSS reader.

I cant stand Opera 10 and was wondering if someone could get me pointed in the right direction as far as how to install the original 9.7 version that is stock with the HD2.

I cant find it available for download from Opera, nor could I find it on XDA.

Also, I prefer the RSS reader that came stock with the HD2 as well. Could you point me in the right direction?

This is the first ROM that I have flashed ever and I cant believe how much of an improvement this is!!! I will highly recommend this.

Thanks again!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
Thanks, i do not know about where to get opera 9.7 but the lite rom does not have opera or google installed so you can install your own.

i have the package for the oem install, i will have a go at compiling it to a cab for you.

I'll need a bit more info on the rss reader, i was not aware of the differences of each you mentioned.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sniff15:

is there somewhere that you have listed as to what is in the lite version. i'm looking for something without cht.

Bad news, I have 3 HD2's and i had your rom on all of them. After about a week my main one started freezin a lot and started causing me to soft reset 3-4 times a day. My girl friends phone is making her hard reset ( i havent seen it in person yet) she also said that it shut off for about 6 hours and she couldnt charge it or anything. Last one (my moms) her phone has been freezin up and playing different ringtones that are set for people and unmuting itself and all sorts of crazy things. Battery life on all 3 with the 2.10.50.8_2 radio has been terrible. i dont know whats goin on with their phones personally other than what I mentioned but on mine it seems like something was breaking after a few days with the rom. I wanted to let you know though so you could continue on with the cooking process
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
hmm that is strange, it works pretty well on my hd2. i am thinking that this 2.13 rom is not so good. I'll look into going back to 2.10 drivers and see if that helps at all, it seemed to work better on the older drivers.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
I have no clue what all happened but my girls phone is completely bricked. Im thinking its a hardware failure more than likely but it sure was acting weird the past couple of days
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
well that makes more sense lol my hd2 has been running for weeks now and the battery lasts 2.5 days with push exchange and hourly updates of facebook, twitter and weather, not to mention me playing with the phone.

aside from an ocasional dialer glitch that has yet to be located, i have yet to have any issues with it.

let me know how you go, in the meantime i am going to investigate the drivers somemore and see if i can locate the troublesome critter.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingSkeme:
What radio are you using to get 2.5 days of battery use? I was only able to get about a days worth
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
2.10.50.26 - it's radio from the 2.13 ship rom. I flashed that first, then flashed my splash screen then flash this rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
New rom in testing now. New black dialer thanks to the EVO dialer by NullPointer, Leocpuspeed by NetRipper and some driver changes to improve stability.

In testing now will release very soon.

Also there is a new radio out that seems to improve network. Battery is yet to be confirmed but i will know by tomorrow if this has changed. 2.11.50.20. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694868

Performance issues persist!

Norgan,

this is indeed a good rom but i've a few suggestions to make it trouble free...

1. I think u shld remove Arkswitch.. it hangs and causes hd2 to freeze frequently..

2. Dialer has some issues with names not being displayed when calls come in...

There are some other performance issues too... im yet to nail the exact reasons behind them... do take a look!

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] norgan:
yeah i'm thinking a base driver change is required. arkswitch works well for me, only very rarely it crashes but doesn't seem to have any issues. i'll be doing some updates shortly to bring more stability.
