Re: Contacts page... If you click on the favorite's photo, it will dial the number that you set it for, when you originally set up that favorite. If you click on the name of the favorite, it will allow you to choose another number to dial. ;)

I think that this upgrade is light years better than the original shipped ROM, but I understand that it's all a matter of taste and familiarity.

At least with Windows Mobile, we *have* a choice. :D

WOrking DOwnload link for New Rom (ATT Stock)???

Could someone post a working download link?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] microdrive:
Hi guys, does anyone have any issues with your home screen using this rom?

I installed this rom on my Tilt2 (Non-camera) and i noticed that, periodically, there'll be streaks of white lines appearing across the screen (like artifects on a PC having a bad graphic card). The lines will flash for a split second and gone the next, until the next line appears.

Sometimes, the lines will not come on at all and the phone will appear normal.

Thinking that i may have a bad LCD, i'd reverted back to the AT&T Shipped Stock ROM (from HTC.COM) and i didn't get any lines for the last 2 days of usage. This is really strange :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] robseargeant:
For the 'X' Problem install Dutty's Task Manager from the Leo forums, it is the task manager you are used to and allows the setting for X to close.

The all programs tab can also be added by a .cab on the site here too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] txvet:
Since this is a "stocked" ROM, but unreleased yet (officially), do I need to do a HardSPL first? If so, I'll just wait. But if all I need to do is install it, I may go for it. I'm downloading right now.

Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] steviewevie:
No, you don't need HardSPL if you have an AT&T Tilt 2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] txvet:
Wow! Thank you! I'll do a quick backup to my microSD card & do a quick check to make certain I have all my 3rd party apps read to re-install from the microSD and give it a whirl this weekend.

Since I use SPB Software's Shell (3.5.5) I don't think I'll see a lot of the same issues I've found reported as buggy boos.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] emoore625:
Any chance someone can pull the HTC Task Manager Application from one of the cooked roms for download?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] scooper:
It's in there. Just that don't have the taskbar access. You can install some other task manager to get that functionality.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shvdkty:
When you click on add favorite it opens a list of contacts. You click the appropriate contact and it opens another list, send text, call mobile etc. The top choice in the list is view contact card. So when you click on your favorite contact it opens their contact card and you can choose to call, text, email...etc. This bugged me too until I figured it out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] txvet:
Has anyone used this new ROM, who also uses SPB Mobile Shell? I user their current 3.5.5 version. So before I take the plunge I would like to know if it should load/work okay.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] armenh72:
txvet

how are you going to make sure that 3rd party apps read to re-install from the microSD? what app do you use?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] txvet:
I have my apps that WILL install from SD on the SD card; the apps such as SPB mobile shell & a few others I will install from my workstation via USB & active-sync. As far as things like Google maps & Opera 10, I can get them on their websites anytime.

Make sense?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hitekredneck:
I don't think he meant "read" to install, but rather "ready" to install.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Cthulhu111:
So, when following the instructions in the thread giving instructions for flashing your first ROM, if you're using an AT&T Tilt 2, you can just skip to Step 3 for flashing the leaked ROM?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] armenh72:
Does not make sense at all. I know how to install apps using active sync or having cabs. What you seem to claim is that after getting new rom you can put SD card back and they will work as before? If that is the case, how are you going to do. I thinks after new ROM you need to reinstall every app as old registry entries will be gone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nasapunk88:
most apps installed on SD card will run fine after hardreset/new rom. I just copy the shortcuts from startmenu and save them on SD card after they are all installed. Then flash a new rom and copy the shortcuts back to startmenu and Most apps will run fine without having to reinstall. (i keep a basic list of what work, what dont and just keep the SD card shortcut folder organized with working links)

however of course some do require a complete reinstall, but the shortcut idea has worked for around 100/150 of my games and apps
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ws6nightcat:
anyone have a cab or reg key to unlock this rom to install cabs with unsigned certificates?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] txvet:
Thank you Nasapunk88 for trying to clarify things for armenh72. It seemed like the more statements I made, the more he questioned.

Removing Bloatware?

Has anyone worked on removing the Bloatware on this yet?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] armenh72:
I also have start menu backed up. it works for simple apps and games. What I am worried are mostly apps and games that need either paid or unpaid registration and these data are mostly stored in the registry or somewhere in device. In any case, we are on the same page. I have 400+ apps now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] TheCritic:
Could somebody post cab or link?

Crying out loud, 20 posts on here telling people to install Duttys task manager, not one link or .cab. I've been running in circles for over an hour trying to find it with the search tools on XDA, what a cluster... No way to tell if the nearly worthless results are the latest version correct for this phone.

I'd suggest that a lot of the people looking for the simplicity of installing a stock rom aren't going to know the locations of repositories of files some posters use everyday for cooking, and would rather not open a registry editor either...

Whatever happened to people making cabs for regedits instead of a page of text with 2 dozen places to navigate to and change or type in the whole key...

Sorry if I sound like a whiny noob--I'm actually not. I'd just like to be able to get my Tilt2 running better than the godawful stock rom as quickly and simply as possible instead of having to become an expert on the damn thing!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hitekredneck:
duttys task manager

Okay, after an exhaustive search on here myself, and failing to find it for y'all who need it, here is Dutty's Task Manager. Don't say I never gave ya nothin'. LOL

By the way, been running this rom on both of my AT&T branded Tilt2's and have been loving it. Other than having to install Dutty's that is.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Michael_514:
Hey guys,

Well, I've been using this ROM for about 3 days now, and I am quite impressed with the look and feel and the stability of it.

I installed the usual.. 16 Quick links / Duttys TaskMan / 4X4 people tab / Crud Scraper / Mark All Read Inbox / yada yada...

..but I do have a question: Does anyone know how to remove the animations from the main screen?

Is it just me, or are you guys experiencing some pretty laggy performance on the main screen? It seems like the only choices are Animated backgrounds or the Weather background.

When I flip the clock up to reveal the quicklinks, or even slide my finger side to side on the various tabs, I am finding the phone quite laggy.

The way the clock flips is just brutal. Choppier than a RealPlayer video on dial-up!

Anyone else experience lousy animation on the main page?

I am wondering if I messed up a setting using some of the recommended settings here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=583638

I did use Advanced Config... but still.. that main page is BRUTAL.

I'd love to try a black background and see what happens.

How is your performance?

Have you been able to install a non-animated background?

Thanks!

EDIT: I just set up another Tilt2, which appears to have a "static Wallpaper" graphic in the wallpaper options, as well as a few other wallpapers. They came from R6_Landscape 16 links.cab. Looks like performance has increased with the static wallpaper
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xcondemnedonex:
i flashed the rom and had it for a couple days.

the bad:

BLOATWARE! battery life sucks. laggy after you sync your contacts with facebook. switch from landscape to portrait after sending a text has caused sense 2.5 to freeze. had to reboot the phone at least once a day from freezing. when you're in portrait and switch to landscape in a text message it doesn't automatically go to the "type here" entry you have to scroll down. a lot of the time the phone won't play the message tone when you receive a text message and sometimes the phone won't play the sound and get locked on vibrate that you can't turn off until you hit a physical button on the phone. if you don't have signal the battery will drain awfully quick. my batter went from 100% to 50% in about an hour. NO LIE

the good:

very visually appealing. it's gorgeous. on first boot before you sync with facebook, add contacts, etc it is very quick.

I really think that if if they fix the bugs it could be a really great rom. I've pretty much given up on my tilt2 and went back to my pantech matrix pro! I've flashed a ton of roms and there is always issues or it's just plain ugly. so for now, it's sitting on my computer desk.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] robseargeant:
Huh, most of us have reported that the battery life on this ROM is nothing short of amazing. 2-3 days of moderate use for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xcondemnedonex:
are we using the same rom? lol i had to charge it halfway through the day.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Captain_Throwback:
Update Security Policies.cab

I found this ROM to be extremely laggy on my device, and it froze frequently. I'm beginning to think that my device being a refurb has something to do with it :rolleyes:.

I was also considering making a TaskManager CAB from the latest version I have, 2_1_19213732_17, but since the Dutty version has already been posted, there's probably no need for that. I'm sure the functionality is identical.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] TheCritic:
Thanks!! So I'm not crazy, it was hard to find?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hitekredneck:
Yes, hard to find indeed! After looking and not finding I just went ahead and uploaded a fresh copy for all. lol

It would be very handy if vBulletin had an option to only search attached files and leave out all of he irrelevant stuff via wildcard inclusions.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
I'm not using the stock ROM, but I'm *guessing* its the same anyway. You should be able to browse to and pick a non-animated background after selecting the "Animated Wallpaper" choice.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shvdkty:
You're not alone. Programs seem to take longer to load, the front page is horribly slow and choppy. I also have to reboot my phone at least once a day now when before I could go 3 or 4 days without reboot.

There seems to be memory leak somewhere as I will go from 67% on fresh boot to 85% just from minor use (takes a few hours). Somethings isn't right here and I have been using this ROM since it was first announced on here.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] brad_wp:
From the Sub-Forum view, any thread that has attachments has the paper clip symbol. If you click on the paper clip symbol, it displays all attachments in the thread.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hitekredneck:
Yes, I know about the paperclip link to attachments. You have no idea how many of those I clicked trying to find the damned thing. Common sense would dictate that the search feature would bring up the appropriate thread to check if you searched for "duttys task" or "task manager" but guess what, it doesnt. I searched for amost a half an hour without locating it and finally called myself a dumbass for not just uploading it from my SD card in the beginning.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] robseargeant:
Obviously the HTC Messaging APP is a RAM beast and never gives most of it back after closing. What is the best way to remove/replace it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] joeclark:
maybe im just doing somthing wrong but all i have done is installed the ROM and updated my contacts and such with Microsoft My Phone and I cant get the phone to stay on. Everytime it goes to sleep i have to pull the battery and turn it back on. that and i can cant get it to sync with my computer now to put my other apps and what not on. I am very confused.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] LiquidXed:
try a task29 then reflash the rom.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] joeclark:
ok for some reason i pulled the sd card and the computer found the phone, was able to install all programs and such but now it still does not want to stay on.

with the task 29 fix that part? what exactly does it doo?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rimwrecker:
Task29

A few weeks ago, I flashed the last ROM available from HTC with Sense 2.5 to my Tilt 2 and it started to keep on stand by mode having to pull out the back cover and soft reset the phone 2 or 3 times a day. I used Task29 (which performs a format to the internal memory of the phone) to flash the AT&T update and now my Tilt is working without problems.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] joeclark:
ok so therea are several apps in the file which one do i use?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] TheCritic:
It's not at all bad for WHAT IT IS.

I came from the previous stock ROM and have so far found this ROM a godsend. Was minutes away from ordering an Android Captivate, slowed mostly by the fact ATT seems to have done much of same crap to it that crippled the Tilt2 on release (out of date OS, bloatware out the arse, etc) plus the lack of a keyboard.

I ran the disable clock flip cab, changed to a black-ish background I found through hitting albums in the background browser--which turned off the full-screen weather BS, used task manager once in a while to close all (until given Dutty's), and have had none of the problems you described. Used crud scraper to remove much of the bloat after installing .net and rebooting, and I did the same registry edit that was needed on the previous ROM in order to tether with the MEdia net plan I'm grandfathered into.

The battery seems about the same, which under both ROMs has been OK for me (2-3 days of my normal use) UNLESS (under either ROM) my phone sits in a no coverage area (at work without being plugged in it eats at least half the battery in 8 or so hours).

Several times when I've thought the phone was locked up or non-responsive I've found that it was just that I needed to PRESS HARDER. Anybody else pretty sure the sensitivity of the touchscreen was adjusted down a little?

So again, I think it's a MASSIVE improvement for people wanting to stick to the stock ROMs and not deal with SPL or a bunch of re-flashes for point-release bugfixes. But I will re-flash if they update this before release (maybe they could iron out some of the .net stuff, though I haven't had any real problems with what I've ran so far/maybe a touch sluggish in some .net apps).

But now that I've said all this it'll probably BSOD the very next time I turn it on to check the time! ;)

Cabs and Tweaks for New Official Tilt 2 Rom

Everyone here needs to try the Euro 2.07 ROM. Beats the crap out of this ROM. Remove HTC Messaging and its blazing fast and no annoying bugs or start menu layout.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] chadster214:

Random problems with the speakerphone and muting (the other person can't hear you).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] seeM_ZA:
Aren't like almost all of the ROMs here based on that ROM though? :confused: I used my own cooked ROM for quite long, based on 2.07 with no issues at all. Now its based on 2.10, but I'm thinking of going back to 2.07 with only a few drivers from 2.10.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Cthulhu111:
Had my Tilt 2 a little over a week and decided to give this a go. More than a little intimidating, as this is my first smartphone, so I've never flashed a ROM before. Since I had very little on my phone after only a week, ActiveSync was sufficient to back up my Contacts and Calendar.

After some nailbiting, more from inexperience than anything else, all seems to have gone well. The Sense (is that right) home screen is maybe a little more cluttered than I thought, but it does look much more colorful than the old TouchFlo3D screen.

The taskbar Task Manager going away is a bother, but for now, I just popped it onto one of the home screen Quick Links, and that works good enough for me at this time.

A bit early to be sure, but I want to say the Wi-Fi connection hooks up easier to my home Wi-Fi network than before. I like the new People screen, and the Settings tab gives you more options on one screen than TouchFlo did.

My Sudoku game that came with the TouchFlo version of the ROM disappeared. That kinda sucked.

I'll need to play around more this weekend, but so far, I'm liking it.

Again, smartphone and flashing n00b here, so don't know how much value this quick review is.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Michael_514:
Hi guys,

Just a brief follow-up / thoughts on this ROM.

First, the good:

I have truly found this to be a fantastic ROM. Once you add in all the required tweaks such as Duttys Task Manager, 4x4 contacts, and so forth... This really is a gem.

Love the HTC messaging. Love the photos of everyone. Love the soft grey background with the smooth fonts. Very nice. Weather app, with its localization feature, is awesome. As I drive from suburb to suburb, it totally keeps up. Animation is great.

GPS worked well.

It paired with my Escalade's Bluetooth feature immediately, and has not yet dropped a call. Wifi works flawlessly. Etc.

The only thing I have left to do (after 10 days) is to remove the proxy from Opera. I'm on Rogers here in Canada. Got ie working; tethering works; fixed the 4-hour delay in the SMS time display.. etc... Just have to fix Opera, and I am good.

So really, this is the nicest stock ROM I have ever seen. This is my sixth or seventh HTC device, and this is the first time I have kept it stock. Battery life has been incredible so far.

NOW...... The CON.........

Here is the problem:

The device is very, VERY laggy. This is the laggiest phone I have seen!

For example, if I set the Calendar view in Agenda mode (where it picks up the next half dozen appointments..)... I could literally wait five seconds before the appointments appear.

Or searching for a contact name? Oh my. I could type in the name with the on-screen keyboard.. run to the store for a case of beer, come back, and it's just finding the contact!

Unreal. Just a collosal pain.

HOWEVER, because of the cleanliness, graphics, nice apps, tethering abilities, and so forth... I am learning to live with the lags.

Sometimes its worse than other times.

I also installed B_Brians WM6.5 Taskbar gfreek editionV5b, and it makes for super nice-looking icons on top (except one is not there, as it's a question mark).

I am staring at the main home page now, and just blown away by the nice clock; those icons; the weather app with my current suburb; the four quicklinks that expand to 16 with a finger-swipe; the highly detailed tabs at the bottom; and what can I say? I am impressed.

I have two units, and just ordered three more for my VPs. Once you get used to the lag, I think this looks like a next generation phone. The facebook integration with my contacts is dead-on, but the pictures don't seem to sync with outlook properly.

So, that's what I have to report!

If you can get used to a bit of lag, this ROM is stunning. If speed is your thing, move on! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DJGonzo:
Yes they are. That's why I could care less. :p

People need to stop using this ROM. It's not as fast as they think it is. Just less bugs out of the box.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] seeM_ZA:
:) People need to stop using stock ROMs in general... They're just so messy bloated and.. Ugh :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] FL5:
To be fair, though, the huge difference between the first stock rom and this one was what finally convinced me that software really does make that much of a difference, and that it was time to start flashing.

One thing it does have over a lot of the cooked euro roms, though? Pretty blue notification bubbles/radio buttons/slider/toggles.

Those green notifications/switches/checkboxes on a black interface are so gross. So very, very gross.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DJGonzo:
I used to have them on my ROM. I went green. Watch for my next release. I do 2017/2018 Sense and the AT&T blue Sense (with the "gross" green check marks). If you want to try a cooked ROM, try mines and see the difference. If you don't like mines, try WCX Tilt Upgrade or Simplicity.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] loyolacs:
So I have had my tilt2 for about a year now, and this is the first time i have played around with flashing a new ROM. I was having issues with my phone, so i figured if i was going to reset everything, i would try a new ROM. Flashing it went perfectly fine thanks the step by step directions you guys have. The problem now is that i am having issues with the phone freezing a lot. This is happening mostly when using the HTC messaging. I am not a heavy texter, but i have been sending/receiving a lot recently. I typically flip the phone out and use the qwerty keyboard. The problem is that a lot of time, the screen is freezing when exiting messenger. I dont know if it is the messaging, or the homepage that is causing the issue. I am able to open the "start" page when this happens, but cant do too much else. I had memory issues, so thought that could have been an issue, but i used that Crud Scaper, and that freed up a lot of space, but i am still having issues.

Is it possible that flashing the ROM again could fix the issue? or is that just like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole by picking it up and pushing harder? Has anyone run into issues like this? i havent played around too much with the other tweaks yet, because i figure i am going to have to go back to square one anyway soon. I love the new ROM but if it is a known bug, then i will have to switch to another. I cant keep resetting my phone after every txt message i get!

Any help would be greatly appreciated since i am admittedly knew to playing around with ROMs on my phone.
