Twitter? Eh, I hardly use it on my phone so I must've missed that. I'll check it out! Thanks :) Oh and I agree with you on the colour story. Green can change to blue but black must stay black. About that Windows Media Player skin, the Sense one. It's kinda time consuming, skinning.. But I'll try when I can find enough time. If someone else wants to finish it for me then just send a PM my way? All you need to know is how to edit a text file and know your way through say photoshop or gimp. :)

FL5, those reg keys didn't do it for me. I had to use a few more, like this:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\PhoneVolume]
"DownlinkPhoneVolume"=dword:000000ff
"MappedDownVolume"=dword:000000fa
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\ShellOverrides]
"SavedInCallVolume"=dword:ffffffff
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Bluetooth]
"PhoneVol"=dword:000000fa
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\VolumeOverlay]
"SavedHandSetVolume"=dword:ffffffff

I wonder how many people are still using this ROM? Lol. The last release was over a month ago :o ..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] seeM_ZA:
Okay I just tested the Landscape Twitter story and it's working fine :? The icons definitely don't scale properly and aren't looking too nice. But I don't see anything funny happening with the text..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tiemen_S:
really? I'll make a screenshot with MyMobiler as soon as I'm home.

I tried it again too and this should give the bug for sure:

Go to twitter tab while in portrait

Menu, New Tweet (or just press What are you doing)

The sceen pops up and your softkeyboard appears

Make sure to wait until the typing cursor is there

Now slide out the keyboard for landscape

The typing area will remain in it's portrait dimensions

If you now type a sentence and press the header (What are you doing) to deselect and make the softkeys visible again, the text gets all stretched out to fit landscape.

Seems a long way to get the error, but this way you'll come across it for sure :).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] seeM_ZA:
Yeah that's urgggly! Lol, it seems to only happen if u change to landscape after pressing new tweet or what are you doing now.. I'll try out the Rhodium Twitter and see if it still has that. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mnementh666:
Hey seem, keep up the good work, haven't had any issues yet with what I do on my phone.

Edit: Woot! 2000 posts. Good to see your ROM getting attention.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
I figured those other keys had to be part of it, but I was far too lazy to hard reset to find out. :p

I think we arrived at the optimal solution for the blue items over in the thread for that. I'm kinda swamped with my own stuff this week, so it may be a little bit before I have a more refined version out in cab form, but there are a couple of manila files I posted over there that act as a slap-patch for now.

Turned on the twitter tab so I could see what's up. I couldn't make mine reproduce the error ya'll are going on about, but mine has an issue where it seems to get stuck on a twit, and will snap back to it after I let my finger up instead of scrolling past it. Am I going all user error on it or does it do that crap for everyone else, too?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] seeM_ZA:
Haha that wasn't planned? :D Kidding! Thanks man! I'm glad it works the way you want it to :)

You probably have the same problem in the Manila messaging tab, if u use it? I'm talking about the screen you see when you press on a message, the threaded convo with speech bubbles. This reg key fixes that:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]
"HTCScroll.Enable"=dword:0

lemme know if it fixes the twitter bug too :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mnementh666:
I hard reset and was reminded of a couple little things I've noticed...

The MyPhone program isn't the latest, it forced an update and reboot before being able to sync. Also... the icon for the MyPhone is in the Settings now? Took a while for me to find it... right under my nose :rolleyes:

I've been loading SVI's keyskin.... I presume you haven't cooked that into the system...

And lastly, I couldn't get the f'ing msging to send or receive MMS. I'm positive that it's a user error. *shrug* That's why I hard reset. I just reloaded the HTC program. I know it's big and slow and vaguely painful, but the MMS integration is astounding, in comparison. (I do a LOT of MMS :D)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tiemen_S:
Dunno if it's just me (from the almighty Europe :P), but my time kept forwarding 1 hour every reboot xD. I thought college was finally going to speed up a bit! Since I do quite some testing again at the moment, this really bugs the hell out of me, so I'll test the other things on your October 3rd one I think. It also could have something to do with the OverClockTool :rolleyes:, but I'm about to find that out after flashing Oct3 again :).

I'm also going to see if that BB-app-suite can harm my TP2 today, hehe. My brother just got one and I want to have them tricks figured out before he does!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iris_aim:
hi all,

i ve been on wildchild for almost 2+ months now ie. one with sense 2.1...wanted to check out newer roms,but i am curious if the "messaging" bug(sluggishness,hanging) still exists with sense 2.5...not to mention there wasnt a single SOD on my phone.

so guys please advise me if i should try the oct version of simplicity or wait for newer beta to turn RC/final?

My priorities are:

SPEED AND STABILITY:)

please do gimme some feedback
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tiemen_S:
FL5 is probably better at this, but I'm not sure what you're used to.

Simplicity is by far the most stable and fast Sense 2.5 ROM out there. By stock, it doesn't come with HTC Messaging, but Arksoft, the same interface e-mailing/outlook probably uses at your current ROM. It's faster, but lacks some shiny-ness. If you really want to try out newer HTC Messaging clients I'd recommend hopping over to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=741179 . This one isn't as sluggish as HTC's original one, but don't expect lightning fast performances either, it's still HTC :p.

As for all the other stuff:

Sense 2.5 is all shiny with colors and has some new stuff on it. I once flashed my official HTC 2.1 ROM again and got stunned by how sluggish that was. seeM_ZA here did a great job and created a ROM for us that (by default) never has given me a SOD in his latest stable builds (on home page, so not the betas).

I don't know if you are into flashing already, if not: backup your data and flash a couple to see the difference. Be sure to get back to this one and curse at the overloaded tricked ROM's which are only sluggish ;D. Just follow the flashing guide and you'll be safe.

If you plan on flashing 2.5 one time only (I can hardly imagine, but let's say that's the case), I have no idea when seeM_ZA thinks he'll do a next release, but all October 3rd ones have been running very stable for everyone!

After all it just comes down to make the choice between 21916 (start menu on top) and 21680 (start menu on bottom)!

P.S. I just saw you're already joined the forums in 2006, so half this post will probably be old stuff to you. Nonetheless I have no intentions of using my backspace :p.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] seeM_ZA:
Yeah I'm fixing the MyPhone thing now, thanks! Yeah I used to cook it in but didn't really notice a speed decrease without it.. :? I kinda prefer the gray as well..

It's a loooot of people all over the forum :?.. I believe Apple even had the problem for a while, lol.. Or wait, I'm not sure if it happens in Europe?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tiemen_S:
haha, same for me. I kept running around to check other clocks to get on time xD
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Skrobel:
I was wrong then... We have no other choice but to turn off the automatic time synchronisation... :( At least until somebody finds a fix.

A good information though it that this also occurs on stockROMs. So let's attack HTC with spam so they would react quickly and give us a fix!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] smithisize:
Just flashed the Nov 4 beta.

I like it. Seems very quick (no surprise!) and I'm really, REALLY diggin Sense 2019 and the chat bubbles!

So much so, in fact, that I was wondering if there was a reg tweak or something to prevent sense from marking the message as read if you put your phone to sleep and you receive a text while viewing that convo in manila messanging.

Anybody know?

Great work seem, you never fail to step it up a notch!

Regards

Smith

I'd almost use that messaging too, but I don't like doing all the capital characters myself, HTC Messaging does it automatic (when typing hardware-wise)!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] :
im also getting the time changing everytime i reboot, i have flashed different roms and even used task 29 and it still happens, ive tried rebooting without the memory card in that didn't help but if i take out my sim it doesnt change the time hmm, maybe a reg edit to stop the sim card changing the time?? please help :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] :
ok think ive found a fix for me, been doing this for hours and after i post on here i find it myselt :P go into setting tab, mene all settings, personal, phone in there go to the gsm/umts services scroll down and you should find time synchronization hey presto turn that bad boy off :) also just wanted to say great work on these roms every release has been an improvement from the last excluding the last beta, but cant complain it was a beta right? ;) been flashing your roms for awhile now :) going to test out your new nov 4 rom now ive sorted the time out lol. keep up the good work dude

edit: i also changed to these reg edits to get the time zone setting to stick after reboot

Hello,

I find your rom very good, but active sync with USB doesn't work.

The window to choose active sync, disk drive, ... doesn't show when I plug my phone on my computer with the USB cable

Active sync works with Bluetooth.

The ROM that I use is the build 21680 of november 4th.

Thank you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
Activesync over USB works fine. Check your "USB to PC" settings, and make sure that you've got the following box checked:

"Ask me about USB connection type when I connect the device to the PC."

If that doesn't work, try unchecking the little box under activesync that speeds it up.

Good luck!

Have been interested in smashing a ROM onto my TP2 for a few weeks now, have to admit, this is one of the nicer ones that I have seen (going by screenshots)!

Have taken the plunge and started the process of flashing the phone :) Have been using the standard ROM from HTC since Feb, WinMo6.5, has done me well but it's a tad boring and getting pretty slow.

Here's to hoping I don't have any issues!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] indef:
Well so far so good! Haven't had any issues thus far, other than after applying the HardSPL thingo to the phone, it wouldn't sync with WMDC - but I figured screw it, I'll try apply the ROM anyway and it worked.

Just going thru the PIM Backup tool now, getting all my contacts/etc back, then will play with it more tomorrow whilst at work! :D

Super happy at the moment - here's to hoping I stay that way :D

Big up's to the team behind this ROM!

Edit: For what it's worth, I've gone for the 4th Nov 21683 Build.

Hi,

unfortunately it´s not working to me, time is still changing, not only after the reboot but for instance after lock/unclock.

Please advise anyone how to fix this issue.

Hello, I installed ROM 04_November_21683. It is the fastest Sense 2.5 ROM I ever saw. Good work

I found two little problems:

1) when I setup Allarm from home screen (setup time, ringtone etc.) the reminder on the home sreen is shown but no ring tone plays. All sounds are enabled.

2) From locked screen I have to fill pasword only from the keyboard on the screen. Hardware keyboard doesn't work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] indef:
Ok, have had great success with this ROM so far, however there are only 2 things which I'd love to be able to change... go easy on me, bit of a n00b when it comes to this.

1) Auto mute when phone is upside down. Because the phone lives in my pocket, the threshold for the light sensor is obviously too high, so it never rings. Is there any way to disable this completely?

2) Previously, phone numbers in the call history would show up as a string of numbers, or if it's a number in my contacts, it would have the name and the number as a complete string below it, example:

John Doe

0898888888

At the moment, it is showing as

John Doe

(089) 888-8888

Because of the phone number formatting we use here in Australia, this is completely wrong. Is there any way to disable the extra formatting within the phone number field, so it shows ONLY as a string of numbers?

Thanks.

Hello I tryed simlicity withot htc 21619 and got quite a few sods.... on retriving contats from pim...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
There is an option to quiet the phone if you pick it up while ringing. This may actually be the culprit in your case. Pocket mode is actually supposed to make the ring louder if the light sensor is seeing dark. I think pocket mode is on by default in this ROM. But both settings are in the Sense "Settings" tab, under "Sound & Display". Go there and turn off "Quiet ring on pickup", and verify "Pocket mode" is "on".
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] indef:
Both settings are as you described, off and on respectively.

The other thing I noticed, is that if I leave the phone face up and call it, it will ring/sound/etc, however if I turn the phone over, it will mute straight away. If it is already face down, no sound or vibration, but the mute mic button on the back of the phone flashes.

Great ROM

I am a new Touch Pro 2 user having just upgraded from a Touch Viva that I've had for the last year. Man, this phone really makes the old one seem inadequate, but I’m probably not telling any of you anything new!

After using the Viva (Opal) and hanging around their Forum for a while I had a pretty good idea what I wanted out of a new ROM for the TP2 and had downloaded a few before I even had the new phone in hand. :o

I think that the Simplicity ROM was about the 3rd ROM that I tried and I’ve got to tell you that I am impressed. This ROM is great, it's smooth and fast and very stable. You’ve really got a very good ROM here.

I started out using the 21680 build (I like WM 6.5.x) last week and just loaded the 21683 build today. It took quite a while to slowly read through all of the responses in this post but it has been worth it. I found the fixes to a few of the glitches that I've had, like with the T-Mobile keyboard.

You've done a great job with this ROM. Thanks

Taskbar

After reading through all of the responses in this thread one thing that seemed to keep coming up a lot was people asking about using different taskbars.

I've included a couple of pictures of the taskbar that I am using with the Simplicity ROM on my phone. The first picture shows the taskbar while the phone is on battery and the second shows the taskbar while the phone is synced to the PC.

The taskbar is the Arthemus_Taskbar_QVGA_V3. OK, I know that is says QVGA in the name but it was one that I liked off of my old Opal and I figured it would either work or it wouldn't. Much to my surprise it does work with the TP2 and its WVGA resolution. Here is the link to that page about it and a lot of other taskbars.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=441829

And here is a link to just the Arthemus taskbars.

http://www.mediafire.com/Arthemus_for_XDA#4,1

I have not tried any of the other taskbars on the TP2 so you are on your own there. I may have gotten lucky and found the only taskbar that works correctly with my phone.

Just make sure you download the sdkerts.cab file and install if prior to installing any of the taskbars.

Good luck.

Running the most recent beta. For the most part, it is flawless. Though I will say it seems I am soft-resetting more often and it seems to freeze more often than prior installments. Otherwise, fantastic. :D

pretty snappy looks good, i was gonna do the plus cht but it wasn't there to download. i just flashed it and right off the only thing i see is that the physical qwerty pad the keys don't match up. i have a tilt 2, everything i saw while looking said that it was for this phone, idk. if this could be fixed that would be awesome
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] FL5:
You need the AT&T keyboard fix (also called the Tilt 2 keyboard fix sometimes), which will remap the keys to the right spots for the Tilt 2. It's posted all over the rhodium boards, and even in this thread. You will need this for pretty much every rom you find here on the boards. Works like a charm.

Best of luck, and welcome to Simplicity!

BTW: You can install CHT with a cab. It works rather well (or at least is not any more buggy than the beta normally is :rolleyes:)

I had thought of rolling back to the 3rd Oct build, but I'm sure that this is just a small issue that is easily resolved with something like a reg hack.

I do remember having to do something similar on my stock ROM from HTC to fix an issue that I was having.

Any one got any ideas on my other issue?

Also, how can I get the Messaging system to auto-save my half-finished text message that I close (or gets closed due to an interuption) to the drafts folder? Stock ROM did it, surely this can too?

New rom with CHT 2.0

Seem,

I just wanted to know if for us noobies who are not good at reg edits. can you make a new rom with all the fixes so far discussed.

Possibly 1 with CHT 2.0 cooked and anotehr without.

If possible if not no biggie would you be able to create a cab with the fixes so we can install that instead.

Wanted to try your rom but till you go official don't want to flash it. Being a noob at this don't want to risk it.

Also a few problems i have noticed on the ROM i am using which is 07/15/2010

Can't send MMS messages....i am on UK Vodafone

Signal seems to drop a lot when the phone keyboard is slid out and the phone is horizontal.

The clock being an hour to fast since the time change

Random resets and locking up quite a lot

Is this sort of stuff sorted in your latest ROM? or should i wait a while?
