I am running TomTom V7.915 on my Touch HD.
It is working fine except that I have the Windows Title Bar superimposed on the TomTom window. As TomTom is (correctly) displaying in full screen, this is rather annoying.
Anybody else had this problem or know of a solution?
same
got the same thing, very
i got same problem... but only when gyrotater is active. otherwise when there is no screen rotation active full screen works fine.
i think its problem with screen rotation..
what i would like to know is that out of all of those who have flashed custom rom - does tomtom rotate without probs????

On the stock rom, the problem is caused by the ratation software. I tried several, all had the same effect.
I have not seen this issue with Dutty's ROM's.
Upgrade your phone to new ROM (look at my sig)
It has a build inside rotation program (Flip it) which is allows you to rotate even manila.
I always rotate manila to landscape mode and then run the tomtom.

I’m using Schap’s ROM version 4.0 (great rom ) I didn't have enough time to upgrade to 4.22 for now. I have noticed a strange problem with my TyTN. While scrolling the contacts with keys (beneath the screen not the keyboard) sometimes all keys stops responding – even for starting and endig calls. The device is working and the touchscreen is ok too. I have to open the comm manager from the side button (this one works) and close it then everything is ok - all keys are working fine.
I have posted this problem during the discussion for the Schap’s Rom 4.0 and someone suggested that this is a hardware issue. I’m sure it’s not because everything else works fine and I only get this problem while scrolling the contacts.
This is annoying.
Has someone got the same problem? Any suggestions how to fix it?
Thank you in advance.
I installed TT6 and got a squashed unreadable display, so I then downloaded WVGAFIX_BY_Cotulla which I got from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455974
This little prog gives you 3 screen resolutions to choose from and it resolved the TT6 display issue (it also solved my Bridge game which also would not display properley)
I told TT6 to use "other NMEA GPS receiver" on com4 - It works perfectly
Thats great. thanks for the info.
had the same problem, going to try ur method.
Ive also manged to get TT6 working fine on my HD, However for soem reason it turns on the bluetooth as if it needed to connect to an external gps, not sure how to configure it??

Congratulation to your very nice news. Just some questions:
- Which screen options did you use?
- Do you use a (mort)script to set screen option before TomTom starts and reset after it terminates?
- What happens when there is a screen changing while running TomTom, for example when a phone call is coming in?
Thanks for sharing your experience.

Hi Goody
Use the 480x640 resolution to get the biggest possible screen on your Touch HD
You can use (mort)script but its not necessary, 2 extra strokes.
After you exit from Tom Tom you need to go back to the 480x800 screen resolution which is the normal HD settings.

Hi SamCory
Thanks for sharing your great discovery and some brilliant lateral thinking, thats why I love this forum and visit it almost daily, the information on here is brilliant.
KaidM
This really worked great for me.
Now awaiting a 480x800 version or is that not possible
Excellent news and thanks to anybody providing news.
While waiting for my HD to arrive, I just would like to know what happens with the screen when TT6 runs and a phone call comes in. Does the screen get garbled?
If I had my HD already I would try myself...
where can i get tomtom software from im tired of looking for free tomtom software help plz
I searched around and didn't see any threads about this.
I am having a problem with the phone canvas from Topaz port (and every ROM I have tried so far) The phone canvas always works but doesn't always line up with the screen. It will shift itself up about 30 px, so I can see part of my home screen (or previous app) behind it. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I am Currently working with Panosha's ROM and OEM's but I have had this problem with all of the ROMs I have tried.
Thanks for your time!
Well, I wouldn't call this a fix... but if I use dotfred's task manager and try to kill cprog.exe, the alignment is no longer an issue. still reverts occasionally. Still not sure what causes this.
I have a problem with my HTC Tilt 2 where the keyboard stops working randomly. I will go to compose a text message and nothing will respond except for the space bar. The space bar then opens up the start menu instead of moving the cursor over. I have tried multiple versions of the Energy ROM. I had a July 24th 2010 version of the Energy ROM that worked without any issues with the keyboard. I enjoy trying different types of the Energy ROMs and have tried almost all different variations of them in both the 21916 and 29020 builds. The July 24th version of the Energy ROM was the only one that has worked without issue. I really like the Energy ROM and currently I have the April 8th of the Energy "sencity" ROM in the 21916 build. In all of the ROMS that i have flashed to my phone i have used the carrier provisioning that comes with the ROM to povision the keyboard settings to AT&T. That has successfully mapped the keyboard correctly but the keyboard itself still stops functioning randomly. Please if you know the fix to this issue I would love to know what it is. Thank You!
I'm new here and don't claim to know ANYTHING...but....I don't remember a carrier provisioning keyboard fix for the Tilt2 included in the ROM, I think it's a cab file you have to install after you've installed the ROM which you can find on the Home Page of Energy Rom here...
It's possible you've already done that and are referring to the fact that your keyboard is malfunctioning as opposed to not being remapped correctly...if it was working fine before you flashed the ROM maybe reflash the stock rom and then reflash the Energy rom and then install the keyboard fix cab....
I've never been clear on what carrier provisioning does since part of the start up routine has you select your carrier so what else is there to do? At any rate, when I have run carrier provisioning for kicks it has never fixed the keyboard or done anything else that I could observe. I apply a separate cab to remap the keyboard.
The carrier provisioning adjusts "something" (I don't know what it is) and I think installs "something" (I don't know what it is either) that should coincide with the MMS Fix cab installation that allows for larger MMS pictures to be received (and possibly sent)....at least, for the AT&T Tilt2...the first carrier provisioning is to run on TMobile or AT&T or whatever service provider is available from it, there is a Carrier Provisioning 2 setting for the MMS Fix Cab of which I am referring
hope this help
I get the same issue with the phone as well where my keyboard & i have to use the screen keyboard. I have to restart the phone in order for the keyboard to work since it does me no good for me to keep using the onscreen when i want to use the actual keyboard on the phone. This has been going on with any rom that i use. Lately the issue i am getting on my phone as well is that it shuts off on its own or it not charging right. going to upgrade soon. I love this phone but time for me to get something new.
I read elsewhere that someones battery contacts inside the phone had lost some of their "spring tension"...meaning they didnt push out enough to make enough pressure against the battery...they applied electrical tape to the opposite side of the battery so the battery fit more snug
if the battery is not making good contact with the terminals it won't charge well..if it is loose enough, it will lose contact while the phone is on and the phone will turn off..it can be loose enough to turn the phone off, and then by repositioning the phone in your hand while you're turning it on again that the battery repositions slightly to re-establish contact for the phone to be powered on...and when you set the phone in it's holster or pouch, a slight jarring or repositioning knocks the battery loose again and the phone shuts off...

Might seem like a dumb question, but: do you task 29 or flash a stock ROM before flashing the new ENERGY ROM? I always Task29 before flashing but, sometimes when really weird things happen, I find the cure to be the following procedure:
1 - Hard Reset and boot into bootloader (don't let ROM boot again after HR)
2 - Task29
3 - Flash AT&T Stock ROM and let it first boot all the way through setup to the home screen
4 - Hard Reset
5 - Task29
6 - Flash new radio (if necessary)
7 - Flash new ROM
I also use the attached cab for setting up my keyboard (I think it's actually NRG's cab)
Of course, sometimes its just the ROM itself that is buggy. I am an avid ENERGY user myself, but there have been a few builds that were not as great as some of the others.
Hope this helps!

No i haven't tried task 29 normally all i do is flash the new ROM on and I don't put the stock ROM on first. I will try doing that to see if it helps thanks. The tilt 2 does have a carrier provisioning built into the ROM but it installs a separate CAB when you run the provisioning tool. I have tried that way and I've also tried the stand alone CAB for the at&t keyboard layout from NRG i believe. Both ways still have the same issue. Both ways correctly map the keyboard. What is strange is if I go back to the Energy ROM from July 24th 2010 it doesn't have that issue and the keyboard works just fine. I don't flash the stock ROM or anything before going back. I like that version but for eye candy and enjoying new stuff i want it to work for newer ROMS. Thanks for the responses I will try doing what you have suggested.
The title explains it. Whenever I open up my hardware keyboard in WM and in Android, the screen freezes. The functions of the phone still work, but the screen is stuck in portrait mode with no changes as i use the keyboard. When I close the keyboard, it returns to normal with whatever I had typed in showing up on the screen. However, the screen works fine if the keyboard is part/almost all of the way out and sometimes when tilted. There is only an issue when the slider is in the full-out position.
It was working totally fine until I flashed Jackos EVO Full 1.2.0 (5/1/11). I proceeded to do a Task 29 and flashed the Apr. 26 Energy Cookie v2.0 29020 and the problem persists.
In addition with Android, I have tried nearly every version of it (both system.ext2 and CWM) with the same results. However, in Android, the screen glitches and 5-10 pixel wide vertical lines with the correct image appear on it.
Please help!
Did you find any solution with this? I am experiencing the same issue. If the keyboard is open the screen stops updating. If I slide the keyboard in the slightest amount the screen begins to work again. I haven't done any software changes and I am still running the stock 2.0 ATT rom. Same as you whatever I have typed or done while the screen was frozen updates as soon as I close the keyboard.
I suspect that there is something broken in the phone like a cable. Just trying to get some ideas of what part I might need to buy and how to change it.
Thanks in advance.

It sounds like the keyboard ribbon cable is not properly seated. This would cause the lockup when it is fully extended in the keyboard.
