Hi forum!
Before anything, thanks for your invaluable help and support, without it I would feel even more lonly on my PPC life
OK, said so...
I'm having currently some problems with the phone part of this great device. Sometimes when I answer a call (with the hardware key) it takes 2 to 3 seconds before I can hear anything from the person calling me. The same happens when I hang. It takes time to hang the conversation, so I never know if it's really hanged..
Lately I'm having also problems with the "today" app I think. It never shows up and the upper bar (status?) does not change when I receive a call.
I went trhu a hard resseting and restore (Sprite) process 1 week ago, but I had the phone problems before that...
Thanks a lot for your help.
by the sound of it, you have upgraded to the wm5.0 rom, i have these problems also, until there is a known fix for the minor bugs, with the today screen you can just go into settings and today, then come out again, and what wasnt there before should be there now, also , have you tried to upgrade the radio rom too??? 8)
thanks for your answer! But I'm currently using wm2003. Though I'm considering switching to wm5 now we can if I don't get a solution to this
I normally use the phone for work-job and this minor things annoys me big deal!

PLease, someone help!
There is a peculiar problem in hermes(the best device ever made). Some times the phone led (green) blinks where as the display is off and it fails to start up even if u soft reset.
in the meanwhile if some one calls u he will get a ring but u wont be notified by ur device
this will make the person calling think u r avoiding him
this is the perfect solution tried on atlest 50 hermes
Plz install the following cab then switch off ur device then switch it on again and wolla the sleep to death problem is gone
Take care
HTC zindabad (i.e. long live HTC)
Guess you forgot the cab?
Edit: Ok, here it is now ;-)
Anyone tried this???
To be honest: I find it a little hard to believe: threads all over the place about this SOD. All chiefs searching and searching for the solution.
And now in your first post you have the solution?
Hope it's its true...
Could you please give us some more information than "this is the perfect solution..."?
How does this patch work? any technical detail as to how this fixes the issue?
Great if it does but a little skeptical without any detail?
Cheers

I agree with pietrucci,
please ... Anyone tried this CAB? we need our forum seniors & moderators answering us.
Thanx for your efforts nittin_sp, and hope it's truly works.

To tell you the truth I have never been able to reproduce the SOD problem whatsoever. I still can't figure out what the heck is causing it.
Anyway, if you doubt nittin_sp, maybe you should tr it yourself and see if it solves the problem.
This was rather uncourteous...

SOD
IN my whole 6 months having my hermes i had never had SOD until i flashed the official dopod rom with matt kitchen. when I traced the source that SOD had came from it was a bad extended rom flash i done. This cause the device to go sleep after the screen time out, and also if i put the phone in idle mode i had to soft reset everytime.
i flashed an original operator t-mobile rom with the extended rom and all my problems went away.
My device has never been quicker no more SOD and battery life is superb with the new radio 1.47 after one whole day with normal use with 3g internet I am still on 70% battery life.
Now I have the perfect device and i think hermes WM6 crave and addiction will be thinned out as there is not much you can do now with the hermes as to wait for PROTON or fully integrated touchflo working ROM.
p.s
TRY FLASHED A AN ORIGINAL OPERATOR ROM WITH THE EXTENDED ROM YOU CAN USE ROMKOCH TO EXTRACT THOSE TWO AND FLASHED YOUR ROM BEFORE FLASHING WM6 AND GUANRANTEE YOU WILL SEE AND FEEL A MUCH MORE RESPONSIVE HERMES. THATS MY 2 cents
Running new official wm6 no more sod here so cannot verify that it works, but I had alot of sod in various other roms and if this is a solution the senior members/cooks should disect it and figure out what is the real cause of them and what exactly this fixes since they are not so forthcoming.
edit, wait reading it again it says that even soft reset fails to start up, if that is true they are not talking about any sod I have ever had soft reset does what it does resets the device and boots up.
There were many quick fixes trying to figure out the sod problem, sd card issues, active sync turning on etc, maybe this is a cab that does that.
Psiodon
I will try this
I have had SOD's several times a week.
Will try this and get back to you in a couple of days
I find that I have to SRS every morning after not touching the device all night. I have installed this cab and will report back tomorrow about the behavior of the device. It would be wonderful if this actually works. I am keeping an open mind about it.
I don't understand why you're being so mysterious about this nittin_sp. From what I can tell using IDA Pro (sorry, but I am reluctant to simply load something on faith based on "100% fix" claims alone), your patch simply sets the DWORD value "DisableAutoSuspend" in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\sys to a 1. Interestingly, on my TyTN running WM6 this is already set to a 1.
Sometimes its easier to just say this rather then create a cab. That way the rest of the community can work off your findings and perhaps explore this SOD issue better.
If your cab does more than this then please share your knowledge so we can further explore this hermes issue.
ok so I installed this. I've not had any BSOD's since doing so in a 24 hour period, when normally I'm getting them alteast every hour, sometimes more than 1 in an hour. Will report more soon. Would be good if you can post what this does though as I'd like the ROM cooks to build it in.

Hi,
Sorry if this is a dumb question - why do you need to extract the ROM and EXTENDED ROM after flashing the original operator ROM and then flash WM6?
Would it be the same if I just flash the official WM6 and reflash with the cooked WM6?
Thanks!
As promised, I am reporting my results. While I have no idea what this patch is doing, for the first time since I have had this device, I have not had a single failure. Coincidence? We will see in 24 hour.

Well unfortunately I have had the problem happen to me once, and I have larger batter drain than before.

I have not noticed any increase in battery drain, but I did not use the phone much on the weekend. The reality is, the only time I have the problem is when I do not touch the phone and it goes to sleep. When it wakes up, there is an apparent memory issue that SRS easily resolves. But, since I have installed this cab, the issue has not reappeared - yet.
yup over 24 hours and no issue... Its looking good.
spoke too soon - still sod... reduced but still present - what does this hack do exactly?

Hi,
I have recently upgraded to WM 6.1 and tested various ROMs.
One problem I came across is that on a phone conversation my voice can hardly be heard on the other side
Did anyone encounter this? Any idea what it may be?
Turn off WOW EFFECTS in setting...
I don't think I ever turned WOW EFFECTS on (at least not intentionally).
Where would I find this setting?
as I told you, in settings...
the personal tab.
i also have that problem. been plaguing me for a long long time.
Try a few diff types of roms but make sure they have
1. Start up animation disabled
2. SetAcousticparam in their config file
these 2 are absolutely essential, else your phone voice would be low.
though mine is more or less confirmed to be a hardware problem. if you flash the official HTC asia rom and still get this problem. yeah your case is like mine i guess. other then that, if you find out something else, do lemme know

1) done already
2) where is it?
ringtone volume is very low in 6.1 (19209).
well, with PDAViet Rom I don't have WOW EFFECTS in my personal settings. However, I did find in the Artemis forum a small cab to deactivate the WOW Effects.
Since I installed it the problem is gone!
unfortunately that doesn't work for me. i've tried mine with freshly installed cab files, even those from official HTC, with no WOW effects activated. still doesn't work.
Worst still it's a random problem. soemtimes it works, sometimes it dosen't... oh well..
do you have a2dp headset? I have PDAVIET ROM and bluetooth a2dp headset and every time i finish listening to music, turn off bluetooth i have no sound on my device. No alarms, reminders, ringtone, sms notyfications etc. Had this isue in Faria ROM too.
Hi All
I have used SRS WOW for my Dopod 838Pro for years and loved it.
This is the one enhancement that is a must have for enjoying your music on some decent headphones - way better than HTC's native Audio Booster.
I have messed with the assortment of readily available cab variations (1.2.1, 1.5.1, the arm panel etc), reg hacks to fix the driver issue, resets etc. all for the last few days but cannot get it to run successfully on my TP2.
The issues are:
The 1.2.1 version will install, you can apply the flag reg hack (which works), reset, plug in your headphones and tweak away - great, it works!
The problem is that the TP2 will go into its screen-off sleep mode and just not wake up. You need to remove the battery for it to run again but the same thing happens - bugger!
I have also had the conflict issue with MS Voice Command not being able to start. BTW, Voice Command on TP2 is great!
So, i was wondering if anyone has it or (them both preferably) working successfully on their TP2?
I would really like this to be available for all users as it is really such a great addition to your phone.
Any input greatly appreciated (really want this)....
Cheers to all
Jabberoo
I do apologise if this is bad, but i am gonna bump this to keep it going.
I feel that an answer/solution by someone here with great skills would benefit so many of us as this is a very good little addition to the TP2.
Anyone...?
Cheers
Jabbero
Hi All
Still really interested in getting this sorted.
I have tried virtually all available WOW types listed on this site (and elsewhere) with no luck.
I tried one called called "dsixda SRS WOW English.cab" (repacked from a Chineses ROM), this actually ran for a whole day and was really promising, but then my device eventually stayed in sleep mode (like all the others) - sigh. It too caused a conflict with MS Voice Command.
So back to square one - Buger, bugger, [email protected]
Really want these 2 to work as they are a most valuable addition to a good device.
Can anyone put their genius to sorting these out for us all...?
Cheers
Jabberoo
iirc wow hd conflicts with htc audio booster. Will work flawlessly, but you will need to turn off touch flo..........
i did this on my diamond and used SPB shell instead............... Only solution i know of, sorry.
Thx Charms
I see. I was hoping there would be a way to get this happening, by way of someone's insightful genius, as it is a very worthwhile inclusion for our devices.
It's funny that, for me at least, having good sound through headphones is a key element of having this device and it is the one thing that seems underserved in general. HTC's equalizer really pales in comparison to this little cab. Equalisation of sound just doesn't do the same thing...
Maybe that is a cue for a project, disect the SRS app and make one that doesn't share its downsides...??
Cheers to all
Jabberoo
Anything new here?
I´m also still looking for a solution....

Sadly no, it is staggering with the levels of ingenuity on this Forum that this issue has everyone stumped............??
It is the one add-on that makes such an enormous difference when listening to music thru headphones on virtually any device. I think now SRS even make something specifically for iPhone (bloody iphoners!)
Cheers
Jabberoo
Still no good news?
It´s a shame....:-(
It so happened that I installed the SRS WOW HD version 1.5.1.0 yesterday and it's been working like a charm - even the sms notification sounded better than before!
installed SRS WOW and it worked but it caused A LOT of problems
one, i played using the Sense player and i couldnt lower the volume although the meter was showing it was on silent the music was still blairing on my headphones
i unplugged it and plugged it back in and it works, another problem occurs, most of my music wont play anymore :/
gave up on it and i just fiddled with audio booster and got the best setting out of it.....

Which version did you install? I had a problem with SOD from an old version some time ago and had to uninstall it - just seen a new version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584626
Haven't tried it yet, but some posts on that thread state works with TP2.
I just tried installing version 2.1 that was posted on the first post of that thread on my unbranded TP2, with Sense 2.1 and Winmo 6.5. Unfortunately, I got a standby of death within 2 hours of installing it. Hope this SOD thing gets resolved eventually.

Yes, installed it myself today and had SOD before I even had chance to use it! I installed it and soft reset as instructed but then was at work and when checked my phone for email... SOD! Thought it was maybe because I had it charging off a PC without Activesync installed, reset and after checking it had rebooted, I went to lunch and it had SOD'd again on my return. Rebooted, uninstalled SRS WOW and soft reset and no SOD all afternoon.
Running latest stock 6.5 WWE ROM with Sense 2.5.
yeah, i hope the wake up gets fix...i would like to use this app....
Wow..thats all I can say. Wow because it actually produced great results and wow because it caused my phone to sleep every time the backlight went out. Uninstalled and no problem since. I was ready to take my phone back.
Seems even not necessary to uninstall, SOD went away by just un-clicking enable SRS tic box, I couldn't figure out how to un-install WOW HD anyway
Got the SOD myself using it. Took it off & everything was fine, but I task 29'd & reflashed my ROM. Wasn't taking no chances.....
Hi,
I'm struggling with the Sleep Of Death issue as well (WM 6.5.5 and SRS WOW HD 2.1). I've even found a fix for Omnia which involved a registry edit that - I'm guessing here - told the device not to hold devices "wav1" and "wav8" when going to sleep mode, but, apparently, what works for Omnia, doesn't help at all for Touch Pro 2.
Anyone who will make SRS WOW HD working on my TP without the SOD will be my hero. Any help?
i want to say this app allows me to listen to the radio while in the shower its that loud!!
when i get out the shower i cant turn my phone back on aggghhh!!!
please a fix???????
Hi and first off, sorry for my bad english .
So i have search almost everywhere for a solution for my problem but no luck so far.
I have been using cyanogen mod for about 2 months without problems (the stable version) but since one week i keept getting delayed sound within calls. I googled the problem and found out that its common, but my problem got worse.
And now i cant even call/recive the normal way, (you have the phone to your ear).
Instead if i want to hear anything from my phone i need to use speaker phones and that kind of blows imo.
I havent dropt the phone so its not damage, and the one i talk to can hear me, but from time and time they also says the line breaks up a bit.
I googled the problem but only found problems with people beeing abel to hear the person there calling but the one reciving the call cant hear the caller.
My problem is opposit of that and thats whats driving me crazy.
The solutions i have tried are:
Reflash phone with cyanogenmod stable 7.0.3 and then 7.1. RC1 after viping the phone and clearing cach. I tried to fix permision with bootloader.
I also tried diffrent mods but i could not get them in to my phone for some reason. Only got boot-loops at the HTC welcome screen.
So anyone els got an idea what i should do?
Go back to stock maybe?
