What other simplicity users use swype, and which version?

I've used 2.0 and 3.9. Both seemed to work well with simplicity until, idk, september ROM's maybe?

Does anyone else have issues with swype? I know it's the root of my problems wiht the texting app freezing lol because when I disabel it it never freezes, but I ADORE swype and would love to keep it. Does anyone have a workaround?

Regards

Smith
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] na_tra:
thx. i did it the wrong way. it works now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tiemen_S:
Too bad, it didn't work. It fetches data by SIM details probably, because if it would have entered the database by entering my "My T-Mobile" login, it could have worked..

@smithisize, do you really remove your SIM and storage card before a flash? Never heard that before ^^.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Amilo2006:
Try the program "getstatus" on the undefine.nl site
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tiemen_S:
thanks, gonna try it soon!

EDIT: works like a charm. Thanks a lot!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
While it is always recommended to do so, I am lazy and tend not to (excepting, of course, the times when I flash from the storage card, for which I use spare little 2 giggers instead of my primary, and necessessarily swap cards).

I can tell you, though, that your phone is "live" as soon as it boots, and that getting a call in the middle of XDA_UC running tends to muck that up fairly effectively.

If the (albeit rather small) possibility of wrecking your storage card doesn't bother you (I back mine up every now and again, and I use a cheap one), and you don't mind possibly hard resetting after you get called in the middle of UC (I flash at odd hours when folk are less likely to call), then it's not as huge a deal. However, it's got to stay in the FAQ, just so a noob doesn't go all rageface from having something screw up because they didn't bother to read.

Power users tend to be a bit more laid back when stuff doesn't work perfectly the first time. :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tiemen_S:
I think sliding my SIM in and out would damage it more than leaving it where it's supposed to be ^^. As for the calling: pressing "Cancel" when it asks for your PIN is quite useful to keep those callers away, haha ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] seeM_ZA:
Hmmm.. So it doesn't seem like there are too many bugs left eh :? Aside from someone who was having troubles with the proximity sensor during calls (its working fine for me, but I'd appreciate it if some other people could test it out and lemme know) and also Swype messing up windows messaging (which I still haven't tested but do plan on getting around to, again if some of you bored yet generous folk, aka power users :p, are willing to help me here I'd appreciate it). Am I missing anything?

I'll try and update these soon, to the current beta that is. I like where this ROM is atm :) Thanks everyone for the support!

EDIT: Forgot to say, my good friend Jackos explained in another thread why he thinks all ROMs should boot up in airplain mode and now I totally agree with him. So expect that from future ROMs :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] smithisize:
That's right lol really no bugs that I can find! It's all goooooddd :)

Great work!

Smith

PS: I would love to help solve this swype problem if you tell me what to do lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mnementh666:
Yeah, I think my prox sensor is bad :( I reflashed factory, no help. So I think it's just me... sorry for the false alarm, and thanks for looking into it. :o

I've installed swype (not sure the ver?), and no issues... other than it's a bit slower than the standard SIP. I've been using the HTC msg client, though...

All else looks good! No issues here that I haven't caused myself :p

Edit: Just for reference sake: I've showing 52% free mem, with SPB Mobile Shell. Awesome! :)

Edit 2: Completely random... I waved a small neodymium magnet over the proximity sensor on a complete whim, and it started working again! *shrug* I'm baffled but happy.

Also, is anybody else using the top-left start menu releases?

I am not using the beta, but always install swype.

I have not had any issues with using it with the last released ROM.

Let me know what you would like to test and i can help. I use swype every day with Arcsoft.

Using the bottom start version..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] smithisize:
Just use swype regularly with Arcsoft. Let me know if you experience frequent freezeups and system hangs
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Arto's start menu remover, Quickmenu, and SPB Mobile Shell on the latest beta net this much free RAM after a day's use. I read about somebody not liking the smallness of quickmenu's buttons, but I have 20/10 vision and if I'm driving and need huge buttons that's what SPB is for. Also, Quickmenu doesn't let one get at all his settings, but SPB does so there's no need for the 6.5 start menu with SPB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] doublen1:
Running the most current Beta on my Tilt2. Seems pretty much flawless so far after installing my programs and customizing to my liking. Lovin' your roms, keep it up. :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] andersondb1:
I have not experienced any hangups or freezing using the last released ROM,

I can install the beta and test as Swype is my preferred SIP.

Only thing i have noticed is that with either SIP running, the lag time can be a few seconds when exiting one text and going to another name to text.

I usually have over 400+ texts stored at one time and this has always been a problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] genaldar:
Since no one seems to have answered this I will. The keyboard fix from NRG should work, it's what I use and I haven't had any problems. Just make sure you reset the phone after you install it. Or you could put it in your XDA_UC folder like I do.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] genaldar:
I use the 219xx releases. Once I got used to it from 23xxx I can't go back.

btw seeM, I found a bug. The task program, the Icons appear split between the boxes. If my phone was handy I'd get a screen grab, but it isn't. If you have no idea what I'm talking about let me know and I'll try to unlazy myself long enough to get a screen grab.

Hello,

I've installed the simplicity_3_September_21887_2016CHT ROM, and it is a very good rom,very smooth, very fast. One of the best I've had!

But i can't seem to use shared internet via usb nor via wifi-router...

(wich is a pity because I used to use it alot)

Does shared internet work on the simplicity_3_September_23134_2016CHT version?

I read it works on the 3_october versions, but I cant seem to find a 3_october version with CHT...

And what is te exact difference between 21887 and 23134? (dumb question probably, but I couldn't find it...)

Thanks people!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] schumifer1:
My favorite release (until the next 219XX cht.

Of course it can get online with usb connection (while you are synced) and of course it can get online through wifi (i do that all the time at home!)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] buystuur:
Thanks for your reply,

I can also go online using the internet of my PC or my wireless network.

But I cant seem to use my phone as a modem for my notebook ;)

I didn't explained well, sorry

@cletus8: will try October_18, thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mental Block:
I also had the same problem were the 'wireless router' and internet sharing over usb wouldnt work. Appeared to be that the phone never gave my laptop an IP. I eventually fixed it by installing ICSInstall.cab I think. Which was designed to set it up Internet sharing on a phone. Now it works as expected. This was on 3rd Oct release 6.5.x version.

Hope this helps :)

STUPID PROBLEM ALERT

OK here goes, hold on to your hair.

I am currently using 916 release with cht+editor.

I have got destinator 7 for navigation.

Are you sitting down? Good; destinator only runs when in airplane mode (phone off). Whenthe phone is on (which should be always, it shows the splash screen and then back to the explorer!!!

Read about it in xda from another wm6.5 user, it went ahead to reinstall everything form the rom up!

I didn;t think that would help cause i remember having this problem a couple of weeks ago.

However it seemed to work for a few runs. But now here we are again.

You don't believe me?

Adding New contacts in beta

Hi Folks,

Not sure if this is a bug (however, others my have had similar experience), if i want to add a new contact from the dialer screen, I get a prompt that asks if i want to add "New contact" or "Add to existing contact" or "Cancel". From this prompt neither of the first two options are working and thank goodness cancel works. To resolve, i assume i need to install another dialer? Any feedback would be helpful. thanks in advance

Just a few non-ROM related questions:

-Does anyone have freezing issues when using xTask or MMTaskManager? (with ArkSwitch disabled)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
I can confirm this using the beta rom. Dunno if this is any different than stock, though. Heh. Honestly haven't used that in a while. I only know a handful of folk that still have a land line, but I checked one and it did show the same icon for both the hard line and cell numbers, which are labeled correctly in my outlook contacts. Was this different than how this is handled in any other rom (including stock)?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Has anybody else noticed that File Explorer will freeze the device for some seconds and continue to do so until one closes file explorer?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mnementh666:
You didn't browse to the /Windows directory, did you?

I haven't had any issues... :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
I've been noticing lately that Total Commander does stutter-up and appear to freeze if I'm asking it to scroll through a larger list, like my \Windows directory or big folders full of crap on my cheap class 2 storage card. I have to give it a few seconds to calm down, but it'll usually start working again afterward. This usually only hits after I've been running a bunch of junk for a while (for me, normal usage) without resetting. Wasn't really gonna complain about it, but I do see it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] andersondb1:
Stock Rom shows the different symbols.

I have contacts with cell phones, business, and assistant numbers. i would like to know which one i am texting, along with those land lines that the text would fail with.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DeathmonkeyGTX:
To whomever asked if I was loading the Windows directory, I'm not exactly a n00b here. That takes about 8 seconds. What I'm referring to is it locking for some seconds on a much smaller list i.e. my "cool sh*t" folder o' cabs on my Sandisk 16GB class 2 microSDHC. I'm pretty sure it's not the card because this is the only ROM it's ever done it on... I just copypasta'd everything to my desktop, defragged the piss out of it with Diskkeeper, reformatted microsd to clean FAT32, and copypasta'd it back to the card. It was doing it on my initial setup after flash and the other couple of times I've had to futz about with file manager.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
Yeah, mine totally does that too. I wasn't gonna complain because I have likewise filled my class 2 16 gigger with a ton of garbage, but have not recently defragged. Also, I've been doing a bunch of dumb crap with it lately (like replacing the butt-fugly green parts of sense with the pretty ATT blue parts), so I wasn't gonna blame it much on the ROM. However, if you're getting this too, then it may well be a ROM issue.

I'm also getting total lockups pretty much at random when I'm doing stuff with the screen fully on. I had been blaming that on the CHT 2.0 beta, but I guess I'll throw this out there too to see if anyone else is getting these.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ace10134:
Yeah I've had it freeze up for a few seconds while scrolling through my storage card (not the Windows directory). Maybe the caches for the file system are set lower than normal or something? But it keeps on working after it "thinks" for a bit. Only happens when scrolling. I don't think it's a big deal though.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
Gah. Major HERP-DERP. This was it exactly. File system filter cache is, for some reason, set to 0. Either bump it up in Advanced Config or bump the following key:

HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\Rep lStoreCacheSize = 4096

The 4096 can really be anything reasonably above 0, but that's what advanced config recommends, and it seems to work OK.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mnementh666:
My apologies, no n00b tendencies implied. I work tech support... you'd be amazed how often you hafta hit the basics when trying to troubleshoot :D Even with knowledgeable people, things occasionally get overlooked.

Anyway, so are you using the native File Explorer, or the Total Commander to explore? I haven't run into any issues except for the obvious (windows dir, and a couple others that run massive)...

Now, HTC Messenger... *that's* another story. But a well known one, I'd wager. :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ace10134:
Yep nice catch, I forgot what the registry to that cache was. That's an easy fix for everyone! I could qucikly write a CAB to change that registry if anyone doesn't want to go through a registry editor. If anyone wants that, just say so. Now the chef knows what to fix when he cooks his next version!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DeathmonkeyGTX:
roflcopter, I used to work tech support. I absolutely hated it. Worst one I saw was a lady that got her credit card stuck in a 3.5" floppy drive when I worked at Circuit City's PC repair crap when I was 16.

I'll change that cache setting here in a bit. Glad you figured that out, FL5.

edit

Holy crap don't get me started on HTC Messenger. The first time I flashed a ROM with it I thought it was a bug. I use the bejeebers out of my supreme QWERTY for SMS because I refuse to pay AT$T more than ~$105/mo and thus only have 450 minutes plus my asston of rollover minutes from when they forgot about my unlimited data and I ran up a $3,500 data bill back when Chainfire's WMWiFiRouter got nice and stable and I thought my Kaiser was cool. Anyway, HTC Messaging client freaks out with a few hundred SMS's in a thread. God how I hate it...

It doesn't slow down too bad when I'm running at 710.4 Mhz... I clean them *****es out weekly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ace10134:
Sometimes it's fine, depending on which version of the messenging you have. And the MMS is BEAUTIFUL in HTC Messaging.

Windows Mobile SMS slows down when you have hundreds of SMS too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mnementh666:
This. :D

I just back up msgs older than a week or two to the My Phone service, and delete. BUT I don't msg much. 400/mo puts a damper on that.

Frankly, I don't use the *phone* that much. Considering my profession at the moment, I don't like to talk on the phone while I'm not working, so... Mostly using the phone for futzing around, playing solitaire, reading epubs, checking mail, and Igo8.

xdandroid and the ubuntu system have me intrigued. I'm just patiently waiting for the devs to develop that further.

Meh. I'm rambling at this point.

Just waiting for Seem to push out his latest ROM hint :p

How well does Igo8 work for you? Have you ever tried it way out crappy county roads in the middle of nowhere? I don't know many Americans that use Igo... If you got it from the Internet I'll gladly trade garmin mobile xt 5.2.x and the latest maps for the contigious 48 ~1.3GB. If any of y'all use Garmin I'm pretty good tech support for it. I've had enough problems getting it to run or run properly from time to time, and still rotating the screen sometimes will make it freak out and you have to hold the end key to get to my SPB homescreen, kill it with dotfred's 3.1 taskmanager, and run it again.

Also, how do I completely disable accelerometer from changing my screen orientation? There used to be an exclusion list or there still is but I forgot about it, but I'd really like to just kill that. It's awfully irritating because I hold my phone at angles HTC wouldn't expect way more often than they expected.
