I thought there wasn't anything that was supposed to change the phones lag problems, but I don't seem to have the issues I was having. Granted I only recently did the update, but it looks good to me so far. My Quadrant standard score seemed to have went down some, about 50pts if I remember correctly, but the lag is all gone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kornsaq:
Quick question,

I have had my phone rooted for several months now. Ever since I rooted though, I always got the "Verizon wireless can not authenticate your phone" message when roaming. This has not been a big deal until now.

I have already spent a lot of time with sprint support on the phone and at the store, and they actually are just giving me a new phone, so the problem is solved.

MY actual question is, are people still having this issue happen when they root their newer phones? I ask because I would like to root my new phone, but not sure if I want to chance it messing up my roaming again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wfrandy:
Yea, it happens, but you don't need a new phone as the fix is really easy.

Call Sprint support and have them reset your profile on their server. They will put you on hold for a minute while they do that. Then they will have you remove your battery for one minute (the tech gal I had actually timed it and told me when to put the battery back in). Then you will be good to go.

Note-I don't know why this is, but it took me about 15 minutes talking to convince the tech support gal to do it, but once she did it roaming works fine again.

You can download the "Roam Control" app from the market, which allows you to force roaming to check if it works, paid app, but it is cheap. I just told the tech support girl that their was a spot in my house behind a metal shed that I get roaming when I checked it (important because she wasn't willing to do anything unless I was currently in a roaming area, and I didn't think it was prudent to tell here I was using Roam control).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kornsaq:
Well, they gave me a new MSID witch did not fix the issue. After about another 45 minutes of trying things, she transfered me to account services and they said that they would just replace the phone.

I do not roam very often at all, so I said okay.

I saved my nandroid backups and everything for if I re-root. I just wasnt sure if this was an issue people were still getting with their new phones or not.
[General Questions and Answers] Dr.Thrax:
i have recently purchased bluetooth hardware an was able to connect my prophet to my pc via bluetooth activesync

now my question can i browse the internet on my phone through my PC dial-up connection ??
[TG01 General] akurit:
So I have the TG01 and I have tried multiple roms with multiple radios and I have the following issues that I have yet to find solutions to.

My caller id is intermittent it doesn't always work but with my previous phone I had no issue.

Also my SMS timestamp is 4 hours behinda and I have tried every .cab out there.

I am wondering if there are any other Canadians out there using these phones and perhaps not having these issues can shed some light on what their setup is.

Regards,
[TG01 General] akurit:
After testing FFBOY'S TG01 WM6.1 21057+Manila2016 i have found that all my issues were solved however i wonder why i cant achieve this on 6.5.
[TG01 General] akurit:
I found out it has nothing to do with radio or wm version but it had to do with the fact when roaming on at&t it works fine but when on fido it isnt as consistant so I shall call Fido to have my caller id fixed hopefully.
[TG01 General] AlbertFDiller:
I have the same issue with my fido mobile phone. A short call from any representative can easily fix this or before that try to check your settings and update your dates and time else call the representative or visit any offical store nearest you.
[TG01 General] akurit:
so you have yours fixed?

i already called and they said since its not a fido phone they can not do anything and this is an issue apparently that affects alot of users...
[HD2 General] yeancheant:
I am using the Elegancia rom with 2.12 radio with very little additional customization and I'm very disappointed that the Hyper Droid rom is actually faster than my windows mobile os. I do like windows mobile as I dont think android on the hd2 is ready yet.Is there really any definitely solid WM rom out there that you guys can recommend.

I am very comfortable with customizing the phone and so on but I am a very busy person and don't have the time to tinker around.I need something which works outside the box with minimal thinking, and don't ask me to get an iphone
[HD2 General] dashrink:
what exactly is faster?

try the energy rom :-)
[HD2 General] sike222:
Is the correct answer.

Gtx cht works well.
[HD2 General] yeancheant:
Since recommendation is 2 out of 2, I will consider
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
make that 3......
[HD2 General] OrionCarl:
VBN has been the quickest ROM for me by far
[HD2 General] chrisrj28:
Yeah I have been an Energyrom user since the TP2 and it has always been one of the fast and astheatically pleasing, they are popular for a reason. And please don't take this as a diss to all the great chefs here, this is just my opinion with experience from two different phones.
[HD2 General] TheCuriousOne:
Dutty

I would most definitely recommend any one of Dutty's Roms. Stability and speed being the key words.
[HD2 General] hastxpak:
Best ROM I have used for HD2 has been the one by indie. Super fast, stable and with no battery drain. I havent'd had good luck with energy roms starting with the older touch HD, and they used to eat up the battery very fast. Try out indie's, I am sure you'll like it. Dutty's is good as well.

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=692763 I am using the one with Cookie's home tabs. One with Dinik's customizations is great too.
[HD2 General] Sheikmans:
I tried a lot of different custom roms, but the Miri - DINIK rom works for me the best. It's so bloody fast and stable. Not one single freeze (even after a long period of standby) and excellent battery performance (2.12 + 2.14).

Energy ROMs do not work for me, the battery is dead within one working day and I don't find it stable. Too much tweaktools which cause slowdown. I really appreciate their support, but it seems that the Rom is not specifically made for the HD2.
[HD2 General] yeancheant:
well the elegancia rom uses miri's rom as the base as well. It is significantly faster than stock rom and I'm really impress with it. But the android builds just blast through anything than windows mobile can offer
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Monkey:
I have always preferred Toast's root method over Unrevoked, just because of all the bad things I have heard about unrevoked.

I just got a replacement Evo and I'm looking to root it again. It seems like if I search for "root evo 2.2" it always pulls up unrevoked. Am I wrong that unrevoked is causing so many problems? Or is it? It definitely is much easier, but easier isn't always better.

I am aware of these guides from Toast (Toast Part 1,and Part 2) But I can't tell if he updates them with every new method. Last time I used his method it downgraded my PRI which I dont want to do again.

Anyways... my questions are: does Toast update his threads? and is Unrevoked a safe root method?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] campchi:
I dont know about unrevoked, but as for toast havent seen much update from him...as for pri update there's a file to update it. So dont worry about it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Monkey:
But the PRI goes to 1.77 but it comes with 1.71 from Sprint. Is 1.77 official? Or ripped from something else?

I might go with unrevoked just to keep my pri. :o
[Windows Phone 7 General] dudes45:
Basically ive been watching videos and previews and all that stuff and I thought this looks boring its just an iphone rip off, I liked windows mobile 6.5.x and stuff because of the high customization and Sense/Manila, Windows phone 7 is so clinical and boring and whats with hat programs menu that doesn't look good its boring list WOW to be honest id rather have my TyTN II back maybe the games will be good... SO! you'll have to have a good job too afford them.. im sorry Microsoft had a very different and exclusive mobile OS to be honest I think theyve ruined it.... Rant over and Android here I come.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mr.Sir:
Thanks for your opinion, further changes will take this into consideration ;)

[Windows Phone 7 General] Iridox:
Are you done?

For the record, the Metro GUI has NOTHING similar to the iOS GUI except maybe the software keyboard.

The entire user experience is fundamentally different from anything out there. The panoramic experience is brand new and fresh... there are no analog effects at play. The GUI is 100% digital in inspiration and implementation... no faux glass effects or stupid animations unless app developers decide to implement them.

If you can look at a video of it running and not see a difference from say Android or iOS, you're delusional and are probably better off with a piece of homogenized Apple garbage.

God, I hate people like you that talk without thinking.
[Windows Phone 7 General] xcom923:
actually I see what he's saying. I believe the UI cannot be customized much like how iPhone can't really be customized, and even with the apps that you can make for windows phone 7 you have to use the same kind of UI unless you are developing a game (as far as we've seen) I think the problem stems from the fact that Microsoft has mad a lot of radical changes that make it more like a iPhone clone than an upgrade to the windows mobile that we all know and love. Windows mobile originally looked to be on par with the way Android worked. Now it looks like they are going after iPhone but an iPhone of 3 years ago than the iPhone now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dudes45:
Ok shut up, I meant its turning into the iPhone ui I.E. black background with random icons I meant to say the homepage no need to cry about it. From my mothers Basement??? Hmm I hate my mum and am not living with her + I am 16 you cant expect more from me I left school 11 weeks ago and am attending a 9-5 course I have also just passed a lifeguard course... Oh and I don't have a basement so... ummm, fail, you idiot, I also said "is it me" A question so you should have told me I was wrong not? Plus it was my opinion I wanted other opinions not a load of Sh*t from idiots. Oh and I said "like" I can see a difference otherwise I wouldnt be saying time to go to Android or I prefer WM 6.5.. well done hard man...

God, I hate Fan boy idiots like you who talk a load of ****.

Hmm why not try saying no it is not like the iPhone os and explain it no need to have a go at people for having different opinions and/or being wrong and as you say some of it is different to the iPhone ios crap but it is becoming very similar in certain ways. If I get banned for what I just said then oh well, wouldnt of said it if I didnt receive rude responses.

xcom923 thank you for being polite. Thats exactly what I meant by turning into iOS its just not really customizable ok people will jailbreak it but a background wont really look good, you cant see it theres boxes in the way. Thanks xcom =)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Iridox:
I just typed out a whole response to this, but decided not to post it.

Meh, some people can't be helped.

Calm down, or leave. Soon enough the mods will see this and sort it out if it carries on.

There is no need for that sort of attitude at all.

Im not having a go, just chill out :)

Iridox, he was just voicing his opinion, I sort of think your reply was a bit on the hard side.

I agree with what your saying, fundamentally. I can not stand the look of WP7. I wouldn't say it looks like Ios, but I agree its going in that direction, i.e. closed.

I, forone will not be buying a phone running it.

Can we

PLEASE

not turn this into a flaming thread.

There is enough of them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Wp7 basically looks great.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Azure465:
Seriously, does anyone think Window Phone 7 looks good? It looks crap
[Windows Phone 7 General] HateMyWing:
While under the hood WM7 might be really cool and flashy (or flashless imho) I'm no fan of the light blue squares on the home screen, yes they are functional but I think for all the bling behind the scenes they could have been a little more on the creative side, heck even circles would have been a step above the blue square.

This is just my humble opinion and no animals, phones, young people, llamas, or anthing organic in nature was harmed or otherwise flamed during it's writing. ;-)
[Windows Phone 7 General] dudes45:
He said he hates people like me... No need to say that and he essentially called me stupid.. so I just got annoyed it was a bit rude...I dont join forums to be intentionally rude or abusive I just join for help and friendly useful answers. It annoys me when I get an answer like that I asked about it I did not say it was anything just said it "seems like", he could have corrected me instead of saying he hates people like me, lol I know this sounds like a retarded excuse but im not happy at the mo just split up with my gf and stuff so acting a bit funny at the mo... If I had relied more like hatemywing, Azure, Doministry I wouldnt have been rude. So yeah, back to the thred no more flaming ++ sorry Iridox..
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Not my words, but a good point:

"Why doesn't WP7 have a beautiful enertia/page scrolling like the iPhone. Why does clicking or touching on a 'tile' makes the other tiles slowly fades away one by one instead of having a different navigation metaphor...this is such a bad navigation design and is even bad for the eyes over time... MS should take care of the core fundamentals.... a very fast, snappy and responsive UI with efficient scrolling. In all the demos, the tile or icon doesn't respond to touch in a consistent manner and have to be touch 'multiple' times before it works... If you can't demostrate the you perform the core well, why should anyone care? You can call anyone an MS Hater all you want, but at the end of the day, the writer has a point and those flaws are very obvious, and all you know that.

At the end of the day, what makes Apple iPhone a hit has to do more with a pleasing and beautiful UI (icons, ects)... than xbox, sharepoint,.. those square Hubs are so ugly... and MS idea about theming is giving the hubs different colors?"
