Anyone having trouble with wm6.5 v12? - Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development

Flashed NSFFAN's 6.5 v12, and works great for a day or two, then it freezes and losses all settings and deletes everythign! Soft reset or hard reset will get it to work teporarliy but it will only freeze again. Runing verizon radio 3.37.78. Any suggestions? Does anyone have v10 still? Might flash back to that. Thanks for your help.

Flash again... you should flash 2-3x when going to a new ROM to make sure it works right.

i have been running v12 for 2 days now and havent had any issues at all still smooth and very responsive

I'm having the same problem...I flashed twice and hard reset and still won't work properly after a few days. Is it because I'm installing games and apps that freeze up the rom??...I get frustrated when I have to restore all the apps and phone numbers from scratch repetitively...Is there anyway I could modify the autoconfig to change the settings to how I like them and have it install apps and games and restore my contacts using PIM Backup???....help pleeeeez!

NFSFAN roms support user customizations. Take a look at SdConfigGen; once you have it set up any time you flash it will install all your programs and xml provisioning files as part of the rom customization.

I installed v12 on 2 phones, with no issues. Both phones run flawlessly, and fast as hell.
Here's what else I have installed, mostly to the SD card.
Sprint MMS, Sprint DCD Carrier Cab, Pocket Earth 3.5 (slow) Skype, Team One's Reader 3, Fennec (it blows / VGA version I think), Sprint TV, Facebook, FIM, Cash Org 8, Opera 9, Efficasoft GPS Utils, Mobile Netflix, TT Nav 7 +USA/Canada, Warfare Inc, Tower Mogul, Guitar Hero IV, Arvale, Cops & Robbers, SPB Air Islands, Peggle, 5 more JAVA Games, etc. etc.
This ROM has been working absolutely great-
Here's some things I did that might work for other people -
Don't backup your old TXTs, Emails, Tasks, Appts or Contacts, and Don't restore them. Sync to google, MSN or an exchange server. I have my contacts, calender and appts. synced to Gmail and to my work's exchange server, it restores them all when you first sync. On my V-11 install I restored all of that from PIM Backup and it bogged my phone like mad / froze whenever I went into my texts from Titanium. On my V-12 install, I just backed them up but never restored- no more Text issues.
Pull out your SD Card prior to flashing-
Flash W/O SD Card installed.
Fully FORMAT your SD Card, install after all customizations run.
I know, the SD should not affect performance at all, but for some reason I had all kinds of crap on mine. When I formated and installed it like new on this last install, all my problems went away.
Been working awesome ever since.

Double Post- oops.

but how do I make modifications to the file?...is there a tutorial that has screen shots??... or even better a video??

Same problem here. I had very few apps installed.

I flashed 2 Sprint HTC Touch. 1 with problems and 1 without problems.
The one without the problem went from WM6.1 to WM6.5 V12 without any problems. I tried to troubleshoot by pinpointing software but it seems like it's a ROM problem.
The one with problems has been consistantly updated with WM 6.5 V10, V11, then V12....once at V12 it would freeze and HARD RESETS!!! FREQUENTLY! I reflashed it 4x and hard reset after each time....all with the same result...random HARD RESETS. I don't konw why...had to downgrade from 6.5 to 6.1 v1.12 spint

No real issues to speak of with the following:
I have
Resco Radio
WunderRadio
EZinput V2.388 keyboard
CAnalogClock, CFacebook facebook&FIM home plug in and apps
Memory status (Titanium system) plug in
Ccomm manager plug in
iContact
Core Player
Skyfire
Music ID
Activesync set up with my google account
Advanced Task manager
Rhodium HTC Calculator
I'm at around 45-48 mem usage on average when idle. i was using vista battery gauge, but I found it slowing the system and using battery for soem wierd reason.
PS: I know the plug ins show WiFi even though the vogue doesn't have it, but they are super useful none the less.

I have notice some flaws with the VZW 6.5
Contacts:
If I select a person that I want to call & if there are multiple numbers is where I notice the problem. I think the mobile number is the first option by default. If I use the D-pad to select say the work number the screen reverts back to the top of the contacts list.
Call History:
I can’t use the D-pad to simply scroll through call history. When I get passed the fourth number all the numbers are highlighted blue & the names become illegible.
eWallet:
If I need to look at a password key I should only have to tap the selection once but I have to tap twice. Then it brings me to the screen to edit the fields which isn’t correct.
These issues may seem to be relatively minor but I didn’t have these issue with the VZw 6.1 ROM

massive reboot
i've flashed my Telus CDMA with the WM6.5 V12 ROM and my phone reboot and reboot and reboot... i've flashed 3 times now and it still reboot again and again but only when i disconnect the usb cable, when it's plugged to the phone, it goes well but always when i disconnect the cable.. phone restart. What can cause that failure ?

One little thng I noticed is the icons on the left side of the call history screen is missing.

Got it to work
To fix the problem, I did the following:
-Went to HTC's website and downloaded the latest Sprint ROM.
-Reinstalled V12.
A couple of notes:
-I was using radio 3.42.50. After downloading the official rom, I have 3.42.30.
-I had to repeat the process twice because the first time I did it, I had no data. The second time through I verified I had data with the official ROM before upgrading to V12.

That would be the correct thing to have done in the first place. Flashing your own carriers radio and letting customizations rrun helps ensure your phone is properly provisioned. The difference between the .30 and .50 radio is virtually none. Back when the 6.1 updates first came out (including the 3.xx radios with rev.a and gps) people were updating other carriers radio's to get gps, rev a etc. Now that most carriers have had official 6.1 updates since last August or so that is not required.
The only possible exception might be the verizon slaves with the gps problems.

Possible Brick?

Hi all I installed TNT 2.o Pro 6mb PP, its worked great, no issues at all. Today I reset my phone because it got stuck, and now it will boot up to where it says "TNT Windows Mobile Professional 6.0" BUt just stay stuck there and not go into windows.
Is there a way to fix this? I haven't done anything new today but record a video which went to my memory card. I have unplugged the batter for a while, taken out memory card, but Im having the same issue. I've had TNT for about 3 months now with no problems. Please don't tell me it bricked itself.
Any help please!!!
Can I do a hard reset? Will that work with the custom ROM?
Try a hard reset, or reflash you're pda.
any chance the movie you recorded ended up on the internal flash, rather than your microSD?
windows mobile doesn't always play nice when available storage nears (or is) zero. i'd vote hard reset, followed by reflash if necessary.
Lol no didn't go to flash, its in the memory card because I transfered it out to my laptop.
Well I re flashed with TNT's newest addon. So I guess its done. But now I can't remember the name of my ui for my today screen. I remembered it looked like the following:
-Big digital time numbers on the top
-had 4 icons under clock going horizontally with your Home, Contact shortcut, --weather, program shortcuts
MP3 plugin
Anyone know what im talking about?

HTC Home plugin - it can have up to six tabs though. If it is not preinstalled search for it somewhere in this forum, there are tons of links to it.

BIG problem with Activesync & memory card

I had a perfectly working TP2 (except a few irregular freeze, but I assume like everybody has) until this morning
I installed the splash screen shown at the therad below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=516013
(I installed through installing the cabs)
A while later my device froze, I soft reseted it and... Two huge problems:
1. Activesync doesnt work. When I launche it it is grey and diappears nearly instantly from the screen (I can relaunch, the same thing happens. I would expect it to stay on screen)
2. When acessing my microSD card with explorer, after going in a folder, I very quikly (a few seconds) lose my card (an see it anymore)
I do not know if it is related to the splash screen installation (It may be just a coincidence and I do not see why it would have an effect). It;s more likely teh reset ****ed up something in the registry. That's why I post here and not in the thread I just referenced
I am just hoping the issues I am encountering will remind someone about a classic problem
FYI I removed the software (of course) and also tried to disable Manilla 3D, but didnt change anything...
In Manilla, whenever trying to launch SMS from the tab or emails from the tab, it crashes Manilla (But trying to launch them with Manilla disabled doesnt work either, so I do not think it is a Manilla issue... Just manilla doesnt manage to make them strat and reboots). If I am on contact tab, trying to look for events (lie Facebook) crashes Manilla
Hope this rings a bell to someone. Thanks in advance
And obviously without a SD card or a working Activesync, Backing up the device is going to be a F*@!%# pain (if not impossible). Plus all the crap to reinstall...
AAAHHHH this never happened with my Hermes !! (Granted, I was using trusted cooked ROMs and not the garbage original one...)
I liek this device... but hate the sh%$t that seem to happen with the sofware...
It seems
Sometimes it goes through... I managed to finally synchronize (finally !!) after trying 50 or 60 times to launch ctivesync. Things went well but I needed to reboot, which I did
And now back to the problem...
It looks like if Activesync doesnt ahve an immediate conection, it just "dies" and doesnt stay on screen...
Interesting (but depressing) to notice: If I launch PIM Backup it sees no email/MMS/SMS account
I just cant (_*!^*^$
OK, problem narrowed down to potential dtaa corruption on my microSD crad (Could be linked to my phne crash). when the card is out no problem (And I am storing my attachments on my card so this explains a lot...)
Going to try to read it directly on my PC and try to save what I can
It's been a long monologue, hopefully this will be helpful to some people

Internal Error :0

Greetings.
I have Sprint TP2. It's a stock install except I disabled touchflo3d and i'm using plain WinMo home screen.
Ever since yesterday I noticed that when I check my phone after its been in sleep mode for a few minutes there is a small popup window waiting for me on the home screen.
Title of that popup window is "Internal Error"
Body is a red X icon and text ":0"
If i press ok button that window goes away but then after a few minutes its back.
Rebooting the phone doesn't solve this.
How would i troubleshoot/solve this?
Have you installed any software that didn't come on the phone? If so, try uninstalling one by one to see if you find your troublesome app. If you have all stock software the best bet would be to hard reset. But be sure to backup all data (contact, text messages, etc) if you hard reset.
I have the same issue. mxxcon, did you ever determine root cause?
I'm getting the same thing on both of my Touch Pro 2's, one is with Verizon and the other is with U.S. Cellular, and it seems to have started for me tonight. It's not hurting anything that I can tell, just annoying. However, I'm not seeing it on my HTC Pure (AT&T), so it seems to be specific to the Touch Pro 2.
Edit-It looks like it might be related to the newest version of Google Maps, I wonder if leaving it running in the background is causing this?
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=99760
I have the same issue on my ATT Fuze. It is definitely the goggle map application, I wonder if its cause i have it running on the SD card.
Anyone else having the problem?
i think its has to do with lattitude with google maps when you exit say no to keep shareing your location i just tried it let ya know what happens
well so far 20 mins later no error message
Tilt google maps :0 sd card

I nominate for The 2010 Most Useless Error Message Award ":0" --> read: "I have no plonking clue." LOL!!!
Hard reset, install google maps 3.1 to SD, returns :0 on the first try.
(It -may- have even trashed my email and messaging - desktop icons stopped working - but not willing to re-re-re-re-reinstall to test that further.)
Just for fun, uninstall GM, install from CAB to SD and returns :0 simply on the **install**!!!!!!
Hard reset, changed install to main memory rather than SD, and it installed and ran perfectly on the first try. Several soft resets later it still runs like a bunny.
Actually GM is working better than previously. I used to get constant failures from GM to connect to the GPS in the phone ('not found' and such). I used to have to -first- turn on VisualGPSce, and -then- GM would find it immediately. GM is now aaallll grown up and can now do that aaallll by itself.
Have a day!

Google Maps no longer functions

I posted before about my phone always starting up in airplane mode (here) after trying to get flash working on Opera.
Well for some reason, that has gone away. YAY!
But now, google maps no longer works. BOOoo!
What happened is that I started it up at the beginning of my weekly road trip, it looked like everything was working but the "Loading" note at the top was persistent AND traffic wasn't loading. If I moved the map around, new sections of the map were being downloaded without a problem. Opera works with no problem.
I then got this error:
Network Unavailable
This application requires a data connection. Please contact your carrier, or visit www.google.com/gmm/configure.html on your computer for more info.
(Error: wininetHttpError [0 12007])
I have had Google Maps die on me before so I keep the latest version on my SD card just in case. I removed Google and reinstalled. Now it doesn't even get to a map and gives the same error message.
Because of my weekly roadtrip, Google Maps is very important to me. Does anyone have any suggestions?
If you are having so many probs why don you just hard reset or even change ROM?
Perhaps that could help.
And don´t forget to vote for Rhodium
Hard reset is always an option but it is such a pain in the ass to reload everything that is working fine now.
As for loading a new ROM, for some reason I am told that I already unlocked my phone when I run the utility. Also, none of the ROMS look (or sound like they perform) all that different from AT&T's stock ROM after the available tweaks.
Scratch hard reset from the list of potential fixes.
Solved.

Phone will not sync date and time automatically

Hey guys,
I just flashed my T-Mobile Dash Black with EVO's latest WM 6.5 ROM
However, I can't get the time and date to sync automatically via the network
Can someone help me out?
Did this work before with the old ROM? I have never seen this happen actually on any of my devices. Usually they are time-synced from the PC via the AS connection - which only happens if you establish a partnership and not in guest mode.
I've seen this happen on other phone models after flashing to a rom not provided by your carrier. For example, I once flashed an old Samsung phone that had Tmobile ROM to a generic Samsung ROM that had more features. The old ROM would sync the time with Tmobile whenever phone was reset or at regular intervals (I have no idea what intervals, 24 hrs, 1 week?). The new ROM, in spite of having entered all the correct settings for GPRS/WAP and selecting 'automatically update date/time' couldn't synchronize.
I suspect there's some 'magic code' carriers have in their ROMs to enable this but I haven't been able to find any info regarding this since I flashed that phone back in 2003! I purchased a Samsung SGH-720, a tri-band GSM carrier unlocked phone that also couldn't sync the date/time in spite of enabling the option.
Since you're running a modded ROM you'll have to rely on a third-party time sync app. There's a freeware one by SKTools called TSync. It's nothing fancy and won't automatically sync - you have to manually run the app but it works! I changed my date and time to incorrect values and TSync corrected both. Maybe someone else can recommend a good time sync app, preferably free
Two caveats - First, it doesn't know how to initiate an internet connection on EDGE/GPRS - it will give you a 'resource not found' error. Use IE or whatever just to establish a web connection, exit, then run TSync and it will sync with various NIST time servers. They can be edited with the included TSynccfg. Second, you obviously need to have a data plan. With the carrier provided roms no data plan is need to sync date/time.
I would really like to know how the carrier roms time sync - I used to have a Moto Razor V3 that would automatically sync and this was before I had a data plan!
Actually, my problem was fixed after I rebooted the phone.
I've noticed that with 3VO's 6.5 ROM you almost need to reboot the phone everytime you change certain phone settings and/or certain UI settings.
Which is nothing more than an inconvenience, buts it fixed now.
Thanks for the replies.
