YEAH!!!!!!!!!!

downloading and flashing right now!

cant wait to see this wonderful work of art!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chadster214:
This is a nice and solid ROM.

LOL..:D:D:D:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] johng75:
just an FYI...

noticed during initial setup, i selected google mail. looks like you already have the domain set to help with time, but instead of gmail.com it has googlemail.com

The domain gmail.com is unavailable in certain countries, such as the United Kingdom and Germany, due to trademark disputes, in which cases users must use the domain googlemail.com.

im guessing that since this is based off the european version, thats why?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] BzeBwoi:
I haven't flashed this Rom, but I have seen that in a couple other ones. If you change it to gmail.com yourself it will still setup properly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] crachel:
This is great news!

Really nice to see you cooking 2.5, gonna download/flash ASAP
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pumpiron579:
I second that. Very stable and fast ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] phoneoftheday:
Been waiting for this.

I have been hoping that you would do a 2.5. Thanks. I will download and flash ASAP!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] crachel:
Here is a BG4all patch that works on this build of Sense.. after install just cancel instead of soft reset.. only need to restart sense
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nkedge:
Apologies for asking in this thread but I've searched all over for info and can't seem to find what I'm looking for -- is it possible to get rid of the quick links in 2.5 entirely and show extended calendar entries by default? I've been using your 2.1 ROMs and have resisted going to 2.5 primarily because I prefer seeing the calendar. Thanks for any info!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] prjkthack:
Wow, this 2.5 ROM is actually pretty fast and stable. I am incredibly impressed. I may end up using this one as my primary ROM.

A small request though, would it be possible to create an uninstall option for the new icons so that it can reverted back to their defaults? As nice as these icons are, I'm just not a fan of any custom icons.

Thanks for all your hard work again! =]
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] crachel:
Not exactly what you're looking for, but you can accomplish this with Co0kie's Home Tab. In my opinion, it slows the device to a crawl, but people use it and seem to like it
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] epoh:
Ahh, I'm so pleased you've done 2.5! Downloading now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gmanunited:
Thanks for doing a 2.5 rom. I have flashed other but have reverted back to yours for stability and close to stock as possible. I just flashed the 3/5 2.1 rom yesterday. I will try this one. My question is I flashed a 2.5 Europe rom before and the Facebook integration slowed or locked the rom up. Is this the case with this rom or have those issues been resolved? Thanks for the update!:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eras2r:
Facebook integration has been fixed on this ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eras2r:
As far as quicklinks go you can modify:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"IsShortcutEnable"=dword:0

You may also need to delete the *.lnk files inside of \Windows\Start Menu\Programs as well

Not sure about the calendar though... sorry
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nkedge:
I did find CoOkie's mod but it seemed like it would only allow the extended calendar as a secondary view, not default, is that right?

This is great, thanks! I'll give it a try.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] joninthout:
I can not confirm or deny that flashing the radio helped my gps signal to work correctly. After reading your post, I instantly opened HTC GPS Tool and opened the port and then clicked test. The wait countdown started and then no information from the GPS. I then flashed the HTC radio via mSD after selecting the HTC RIL switch, started the GPS Tool after flash and soft-reset again with the same result. I then opened CoPilot 8 to see if I could manually open the port and it failed. BUT when I went back to HTC GPS Tool, all of a sudden gps info started rolling in.

SO, who knows what would have happened if I had not flashed the radio after the first signs of thinking the GPS was not working due to task29. As stated earlier from johng75, there's always another flash... :D

BTW: I have always seen CoPilot and the GPS tool take some time to get a GPS signal started on the tilt2. I'm not talking about seeing satellites, but rather to start seeking satellites or to even open the port and get a signal started. There is a delay even with the AT&T ROM. On the Fuze and Tilt, it was always right away that port 4 would open and try finding a signal. :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] joninthout:
On tilt2, use the magnify scroll bar at the bottom of your device. Slide your finger to the right and the font will increase. Left will decrease font size.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pinoymutt:
I had a nasty little outing with both the original 2.5 and the latest release.

For some reason, the phone stopped recognizing my pin (required by company's exchange server) and after the 5 required times, nuked my phone. (One little bit I never knew is that it nukes your SD card too! -- so if you ever get in the situation, TAKE OUT YOUR SD CARD before entering your pin the final time).

I chalked it up to some bad luck (I was still on the release 2.5 ROM), but after flashing to the latest one and finally relocating all my apps and manually reinstalling (I used SASHIMI before with everything already in its place) after about 3 1/2 hours, IT HAPPENED AGAIN! I was locked out of my phone wouldn't recognize my pin -- and low and behold it formatted it again... :(

Since this is a work phone, I don't have a lot of time to muck with it, so ended up going back to the 2.1 e2 Final Release (where incidentally I experienced the SOD once for the first time).

Anyways, to make a long story short -- I'll probably check out the 2.5 release again after a few more builds (I really liked that fact that BT dialing automatically unlocks your phone, whereas you have to do it manually on the 2.1 builds) -- but stability is the most important thing!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] johng75:
ive noticed that my headset controller doesnt fully work? the play/pause button works, and the buttons to switch tracks up and down work

but the call answer and end buttons, as well as the volume up/down dont respond..

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] adhusky:
I got ROM flashed!! :-)

1. enablerapinew.cab and then soft-reset

2. Hard-SPL

3. ROM

Thank you very much
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chadster214:
you missed this one!

4. enjoy!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] adhusky:
2.5 is awesome... I really enjoy it.. but...

Anyone has problem to open the SMS from All People icons? It does not open the new SMS at all.

Adrian
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chadster214:
it needs a kick start since its an older version of SMS/MMS. once you recieve a text it will start showing that window.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] joninthout:
Try sending yourself a txt from the "All Messages" touch. That will kick start it. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] adhusky:
I meant in the contacts or address book tab, click any icon where it opens a new SMS. It does not work. Opening a new email and making phone call are working very well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chadster214:
like what I said to my previous post.. it needs a kick start. send your self a text message or ask someone to send you a text message.

Apps Folder

My Apps Folder keeps disappearing. This is what I did: Flashed rom then did hard reset, installed all of my applications and did soft reset, after that my active sync was gone, then did another hard reset and installed applications and my whole apps folder disappeared. I repeated this process twice with same result. Any pointers? Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eras2r:
Sounds like a bad flash... I'd re-flash and give it another go.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dacho:
I did another hard reset and it's alright now. Loving it actually. I think the problem was that I tried to remove htc shortcuts from the start menu but they would reappear again after soft reset. Oh and another thing is that every time I do a soft reset it ask me to select a time zone. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chadster214:
there's no fix for the timezone.. this even occur on the HTC release rom.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dacho:
Thanks again.

Excellent rom

hey Erasr2,

. .

. . flashed your latest built of this rom build 320 with sense 2.5. i think this is near perfect rom comparing to other roms which are good but they are battery drainer mmostly. For me it has all att functionality with navigator lighting fast lock and thats with stock radio. Pleaaase do not make any changes in sms, since it is also very fast and stable. i am amaze as it opens very fast and ofcourse better then stock rom. its classic but it workss and i am able to send sms like a machine. I can save contacts from list. Speakerphone works perfect in this buld. No DEATH SCREEN or anything. in my opinion those occurs when people try to tweek furthur with rom with programs like HDTWEEKS and etc. Battery drainage is very reasonable and last me as good as stock rom with full webbrowsing, sms and calls. Love incall recording. please keep that. Again i am power user on tilt 2. Now last, Only thing which remains is ram usage which is very high and with animation its a bit slow to use. if that can be tweek, its a very well perfect rom to use. again love sense 2.5 and try to use it without animation so it can run faster. Also keyboard is having a tiny problem when i press space and hold it automatically registers as " . " fullstop. so i dont know why but its been doing that. Thank you once more and please keep working on more faster with same functionality of this built. donation on its way, absolutely deserving.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dacho:
I forgot to mention that opera 10 works really good with this rom. I would really recommend that you guys try it. Once again great job.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eras2r:
Thanks man... glad you are enjoying the ROM. As for disabling the Sense animation you need to set this reg value:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Home.WallpaperMode"=dword:00000002

That should take care of it, and yes Sense is noticable faster without animation.

Not sure on the kjeybd, mine does not do that. It may just be a pressure hardware issue where it registers another key.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gangbang72:
Thanks E2,

Actually i like 2.5 due to its animation and since it latest thing out there to kinda show off :D .. but would really appreciate if that ram usage can go down and it can work in very optimize way and yet not loose its coolness. Again looking forward for your more tweek built for this rom.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eras2r:
I think the memory footprint of gwes.exe is due to Sense 2.5 being on the Rhodium. From my experience the Leo Sense 2.5 packages don't cause the same issue, because they rely on hardware. But the Leo packages seem to run choppy on our hardware which is underspec'd. (Remember the Leo has much better hw specs than the Rhod) I believe the Rhod Sense 2.5 packages rely on gwes.exe more than hardware. So there's something wrong there where the memory footprint keeps growing... maybe HTC will address this in a future release. Of course I could be completely wrong :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gangbang72:
hey E2,

. if thats the case and thats how tech aspects work. Then pretty sure there might be more tweaks to make it a bit more faster. Because other chefs are some making there roms faster and fixing bugs with sense 2.5. Here we have near perfect rom without bugs. Pretty sure you can make it much better and faster or by taking some programs out without loosing stability as well :). for example (and this is my preference, others might not agree) there are 2 icons for albums and pictures. dont spend time playing solitare or bubblebreaker on this smartphone. teeter is excellent and enough. fieldtest is not quite needed. opera 10 is working fine for me, including that wont hurt. Htc calendar is fine, dont sorta need regular calender. Navigator, calculator, youtube are perfectly fine on this rom. Yes... more themes loaded will be greatly appreciated. :) again thanks for considering.

Request: cant seem to make then first letter capitalize automatically. have checked settings and did soft reset, yet it still never capitalize the first word. Also locking keypad with password, makes it harder to answer calls since it slows down to register.?!!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gmanunited:
This will not help the RAM issue with this Rom. There is more than enough memory for storage. Sense is using a lot of available RAM on the phone. If some of that could be freed up then the phones will be faster....It really tries at times but some things slow the ROM down. Although they all work together removing those will not solve the problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mrschwarz:
I installed this a few days ago. It's a great replacement. The only thing I have added is an ereader app and S2U2.

Today, I had two occurrences where the only way I could wake up the phone was to perform a soft reset. On another occasion, I received a phone call and could not answer it because the phone locked up . . . soft reset again.

Tonight, I am getting out my Dremel tool and drilling a hole in the case so I don't have to keep taking it apart to reset.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gmanunited:
I agree this has happened to me twice over the last few days. I don't know why but I suspect the Memory issue 82% Memory usage is normal for me. I know eventually E2 will figure a way to get this down a bit. Good luck in making a clean hole it is annoying to remove the back....Post a pic when you are done...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gangbang72:
I understand what you are saying, and thats what i said that those things are personal preference. since i have seen many roms around and thought a little cleaning up mayy help. But ofcourse if the ram usage could be lower due to any miracle solution, it would be greatly appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] epoh:
One issue I've noticed with the latest ROM - after having the phone one for 2 days now, when I am done txt'ing someone, the All Messages screen either takes forever to close, or won't close properly at all. I can open the start menu and select the Home icon to get back to the today screen though. Nothing else running that I could see that would be causing it. Did a soft reset and messages seem to be working properly again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] lich9:
Messaging

I miss the messaging client from the last e2, is there anyway to get that back?? I hate how if you click on a message from Sense you get one messaging client (that is ugly and frequently locks up) and then if you open "all messages" you get a different one... I liked the look and feel of the last one. Also, anyone know of a way to get the board games back? I know, it's dumb... but I like the chess ;)

Other than that, I agree! Great battery life, great ROM!!! I did get a SOD today after I booted back from Android, but I can deal with that stuff. Good work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] outjustout@msn.com:
Love the ROM. I did a Task 29 before flashing and no screen of death for 24 hrs. I'm running radio .91 and used the htc new radio setting and my battery life is fantastic!

I also did the mem fix suggested by someone earlier, disabled the animation, and set the title bar display to battery instead of clock (seemed to make a big difference) and my memory use is normally under 70%!

Is there any reg edit that would open windows messing rather than the htc messaging when hitting the preview or icon in sense? Right now I just hit all messages.

Also, I'd love to see this with Opera 10 cooked in. As I'm a noob at this stuff is there a way to delete the cooked in version of Opera?

You'll also notice a little donation

Thanks again for a great ROM!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] joninthout:
I was going to do the same thing! lol :D

Hey guys I played with the T-Mobile HD2 and it has an auto locking screen when powered off. How are they doing this without 3rd party software? I really would like that device but AT&T =iPhone Love only. Too bad M$ didnt push HD2 to all carriers it would have given 6.5 longer life.

i'm using smartlock with my Tilt2 and it works great..

Gotta try this ROM

The greatest testament to this ROM is the fact that there have only been 74 posts since the 3/20 version was announced on Post# 141. I'm going to give it a try tonight. Tired of using a buggy ROM that requires grinding thru more than that many every day!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Masacrk:
Has anyone had problems with the facebook app?, twice now I have installed it and both times I first lost the music then when I would reboot it sense would not load and I was forced to hard reset to get everything working again.

Hey any updates as far as sod? I usually get one a day. Also what is task 29?

Thanks

Anyone have issue with network speed? I still get about 40-100 kbps with/without proxy and I had 800 kbps on my old phone 8525. It's about same result between IE and Opera Mobile. Also, I have installed jh2001_tilt2_Data_speed_Fix_1.0.cab and does not improve the network speed.

Help me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] guillermogc:
I have experienced again the no ring or vibration for income calls. What I found out is that in fact, nothing would sound, even music. I had to reset it twice in order to work again.

Before anyone says something about it, I've done task 29 before flashing and hard reset.

Anyone with this issue too?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] joninthout:
We are working on it. Just wondering if you are getting the SOD when the phone is plugged in, fully charged and some sort of alarm or message was supposed to occur?

Check this thread for task29

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dacho:
oh yes i forgot to report back. I was getting sod's randomly with no pattern what so ever. But this is what i did: since my last post i flashed shipped at&t rom, did task 29, installed this rom, installed all of my applications. I have not had a sod since which would make it about 24hr without sod. Memory usage is rather large at 79% right now, but I have not done a soft reset since I installed all of my apps. Loving the rom now. I will report back if I get sod.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eras2r:
THere should be no need to flash stock ROM in combination with Task29. Here is what I do:

Remove SD Card

Put device in bootloader

Plug into PC via USB (status should change from Serial to USB)

Run Task29 utility

Let phone reboot then take out battery

Leave battery out for a few mins

Replace battery and SD Card

Power on phone

Put phone into bootloader again

This time flash ROM from SD

Soft Reset after first boot/customization

No need to hard reset or flash a stock ROM.

Just installed the new ROM. I also applied the fix here to free up some more RAM: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532948
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] eras2r:
That fix is for Manila 2.1 and the Push Internet Engine package that it relies upon. That will not have an effect on this ROM since it is 2.5.

I guess it's flashing time again :) I just had everything set up but temptation is too much. Thanks for the new rom. Looking forward to it.

WOW this rom is great. Thank you very much for your work. On a side note is there any way to delete those shortcuts from the start menu like People, Peep, htc calendar? I delete them but they come back at soft reset. Once again thank you for this GREAT ROM.
