Need diagnostic help - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hi,
I have been playing with some of the ROMs, and I have finally found one I liked, my problem is that my batter gets wiped out really fast ( a few hours) with it, even without talking.
It wasn't like that the first few days after I flashed it.
I had this happen with a few other ROMs I had flashed as well.
Any idea what I should be looking for to stop this from happening?
Thanks,
Michi

Test flashing a different radio it always hlps

Schap's WM6 Pro 3.57a -Bricked after 5 days?

This rom was working great, the wifi was starting not too work, then BANG, stuck on my windows boot screen etc, no active sync, but managed to hard reset. Too bad, was working great until then..the faint hearted should maybe wait until is tested further....
I had the same problem...but I am a strong believer in the Schap-Man's ROMs.
I am happy to say even though it was stopped at the Green start screen and Active Sync said it couldn't see it I was able to re-run his ROM and it found the phone and rebuilt it.
Not sure if you tried this yet or not but it sure helped me.
That's pretty wierd. Are u using full or lite, the latest 7-28, wwe...? A lot of others are using this rom. I'm not having any issues with 7- 28 wwe lite version.
BTW...you should have 'posted' this on Schap's rom thread.
You could also try a hard reset.
Same has happened to me quite a few times, now running Sleuth's ROM
Can't wait until Schap's brings out ver "b" or 4.x as his roms are usually excellent.
Hope this helps

I had the same problem today.... Hardreset needed (Full installation german)
I also had a problem last night. I had just removed the htc homeplug from my today screen when the whole thing froze. I did a SR and got stuck on the green loading screen, left it all night, still the same this morning, so after a quick search on xda-developers before work,
performed a HR and everything is back up and running, minus all my personal data. good job i use PPCBackup to back it up to my storage card.
Whats happening Schnaps..... ? this is most unusual, 3.30c was a dream to run.....
I have had this happen to me 5 times in the last week. I dont believe it is Schap's rom because it did the same thing to me with Black Satin. I believe the problem is software based.
This has been discussed many times in the thread dedicated to my 3.57a ROMs, it is due to some thrid party softwares which are not compatible with this build, but for now I'm not able to tell you what exactly is the source of this problem since I couldn't reproduce it. I'm using this ROM build since 2 weeks and made load of tests, I never had freeze on boot!
To recover your device maybe you can first install a software like SPB Plus I think which offers a failsafe mode, let me know if it works.
I am working on a new ROM and I hope it will definitively get ride of this problem! For now, if you experienced this problem and want a ROM which should be more stable than this one, I recommand you to flash the Schap's 3.54a as it is purely based on the official ROM.
Yea...
This ROM, with nothing else installed, killed the battery in standby in a much shorter time than normal. It also wouldn't turn back on after it killed the battery for an inordinate amount of time... I don't recommend it to anyone. Sorry.

i can recommend this rom to everybody.

Schaps for the record. I did a hard reset and and kept all my apps on my SD.
I have never had any problems, however I was playing around and although I cannot prove it, I have a feeling that SBSH's software could be the culprit. Although I doubt just that one.
I will have to change ROM's for the time being as I am leaving on a trip for Europe and can't afford to be down. But your ROM's are always among the best.
I Think some Guys have closed eyes or better sell there device. This ROM is great. Thanks to Schaps

I agree on this one also. With my push email for Activesync/Exchange and my Flexmail set up on two accounts pushed and my GPRS/EDGE connection always on during the day, I have about 40% at the end of the day, (over 16 hours), which is awesome considering i used to get around 4 hours and then i would be down to 20% on all other roms
very great ROM
I have been using the latest Schap's ROM with arabic language for about a week and never had a problem. It is very fast and stable.
MANY THANKS Schap
Cheers,
This is simply the best ROM I have ever used.
I just donated to you Schap.
Thank you.

So make a thread about it.
Still the best rom...
10 days with schap's 3.57a rom and never had a problem.
bricked?
I thought bricked phones wouldn't even recover from hard reset? It seems a bit harsh to cry "BRICKED" when that isn't the fact. Makes me think of the boy who cried wolf.
Schaps has done a very nice job. However, I felt it was a little slow responding. I'm very impatient. So I flashed the Black Satin ROM. The Black Satin worked for a day or so and then it got stuck on the Black Satin Screen.
I had SPL-1.04 so I used a special fix it ROM which is a 1.18 ROM. Even though I could not get to ActiveSync, I've found that the 1.18 Fix it ROM will flash from the bootloader. It takes about 25 min or more to flash and starts slow.
After flashing, you end up with a WM5 ROM.
Then I flashed the new Official WM6 Dopod ROM (It's a little cleaner than the AT&T ROM).
I've been running the Dopod ROM for a couple week. I've very happy with it. No offense to Schaps. The Schaps ROM has all the latest elements like Arcsoft MMS Composer 4.0.
I hope this helps. The 1.18 ROM can be found on or about page 18 of the Bricked Hermes thread.

I'm sorry if you had battery issues with my last ROM but if you read comments you would see that you are the only one who had such a problem, many people reported that those last ROMs have the best battery life and I have the same impression!
If you don't recommand my ROMs to anyone, so I have no reason to continue cooking for the community! People like you really don't motivate me to make so much efforts for people who only complain about my work instead of trying to give me clues to solve their problems.

[Q] Colored snow, screen distortion, earphone speaker not working on Tilt2

Hey everyone,
I'm currently running the latest Jackos and I believe everyone was fine with the speaker you hold to your ear in conversation until about 2 weeks ago. Maybe a week or so after I installed the newest Jackos. Now I can't hear anything on it, but the microphone works fine. Speakerphone works fine, and my bluetooth earpiece works fine. I've searched for help on this and can't find anything to fix this problem.
The other problem is right when I boot the phone, instead of getting the black screen with the red diagnostic text, I get a white screen with colored speckles all over the screen. The speckles don't move at all and if I let it sit for 20 seconds or so, it will then show the HTC logo on black and continue booting. I can't get into the bootloader, I can't hard reset the phone, etc. Any ideas how to fix this? I haven't tried flashing the same/another ROM yet, but I don't know if that's even possible with this snow screen problem.
I've run Task29 and all the usual stuff every time I've flashed and I have never seen this happen until a couple of weeks ago. It does it NEARLY every time I soft reset or shutdown and boot or pull the battery and boot. The battery charges fine and it runs fine otherwise.
The screen will get random glitches in it, even when the battery is full and it makes me suspect maybe the battery's going bad but it'll run all day without problems and it doesn't get warmer than usual or anything like that.
Also, sometimes it says there's no SIM inserted and I've pulled it out, the contacts are nice and gold and nothing seems wrong.
Any ideas?
My sig is out of date but I have to head out right now and can't switch it yet, but it's the latest Jackos with 6.5.
Thanks,
Eric
I would flash a different/stock ROM and see if anything changes.
If no, hardware problem. If yes, software problem .
You seem to think you cannot, but AFAIK if you can task29, you can flash a ROM. Either way, putting an nbh on the SD card and doing power+vol up+reset should work regardless, unless the device is really bricked - in which case it wouldn't be booting.
Okay thanks, I'll see what I can do with it.. It does boot fine, though for a week I thought it was bricked because of the snow, but I decided to just let it sit for a week and gave it a shot, and poof! no snow on the first boot. It had the regular red text on black. Then I reset it from the slide to reset menu item and it went to snow again. I let it sit there and about the duration that it would be on the diagnostic screen, it was snow, then magically showed me the HTC logo and booted normally.
So it seems to me that it somehow doesn't want to show diagnostic info but does everything else.. So maybe the bootloader mode IS working, I just can't view that. I'll see what I can do.
Does the screen corruption/no sound in earpiece seem like a ROM issue, or battery related, or phone going bad problem to you?
And I've been looking for a while trying to find a suitable replacement, but haven't seen anything that I really find appealing (either in Android or WP7).. Any thoughts on that?
Thanks again,
Eric

Flash stock, it re-flashes everything... Make sure it works, then flash back to Jacko's.

Talk about loaded questions! I haven't found anything that's appealing with a hardware keyboard yet... The supposed TP3 (on Sprint it's the "Arrive"...) was a real disappointment.
MT4GS looks decent, if you can live with tmo...
Thanks for your replies, I'm going to try to flash to stock in a little while and see how that goes.
The new Glide phone that AT&T has sounded promising until I read a review of it. Slow camera, 480x800 on a larger screen, etc. It didn't seem as cool as I had hoped it would be after that.
I'll write back with my progress or lack thereof with this TP2.
Eric
I installed HTC's official AT&T ROM and the screen corruption seems to be less extensive but looks different too. The snow at startup is still present though.
There was a radio that came with Jackos ROM, is there any chance that's to blame? Though it worked fine for a couple weeks before these weird screen things started happening.
I haven't tried making a voice call yet to test the earpiece/earphone/loudspeaker or whatever the proper name is for it but since nothing else is really 'fixed' I'm not sure it will work either.
Thanks,
Eric

The stock ROM should've come with a radio as well...
task29 & flash stock? Otherwise perhaps you have a hardware problem... I don't know what to make of this snow .
The earpiece/loudspeaker thing isn't fixed either. I'll try a Task29 tomorrow or tonight if I can't sleep (thinking about this stupid phone! ) and then flash this ROM again and see what happens and let you know.
Thanks again

[Q] Apparently need some help...

Alright so not even a week ago got my Nexus coming from a Charge so don't know if maybe there's something I'm missing or overlooking, but when running stock then Liquid Smooth 1.4 I have a signal and data (even though I have poor signal strength, don't know if that might be part of the problem.) So when trying to flash any other rom/kernel combination I won't have a signal and I'll start roaming and won't connect to data. I've looked and couldn't find anyone else with the same problem. I've tried AOKP, MIUI.us, Black Ice with Franco, IMO Lean, Popcorn etc. I did a clean install and have the newest radios (even tried the leaked 404 radios) but to no avail. I'm hoping there's something I overlooked but I dunno. ANY help would be MUCH appreciated as I would definitely like to try out some of these awesome roms (not that there's anything wrong with LS) because that's the whole reason for getting rid of my Charge (lack of development) And no, none of the roms I flashed were GSM versions. Thanks in advanced to anyone who can help!
Well that's interesting... my first thought would have been that the activating screen at the beginning after every flash takes a little more "juice" or power to get a reliable signal, but if you're going back to LS and it connects fine every time, then it couldn't be that... have you tried going back to stock and seeing how your phone reacts to that?

I know that before I flashed LS there were no signal/roaming issues. That's actually a thought I had today at work and was going to use my nandroid from before LS when I was still stock. Also I am going to try flashing from stock. Didn't think it would be an issue coming from LS as long as I wiped everything but we'll see. Got my fingers crossed and if anyone else can think of something it might be please feel free to let me know. It's frustrating to want to try out some new rom goodness and can't get service/roaming... Thank god for nandroids

Why does my phone always crash....

Every time I root my phone install custom ROMS or Kernels it will always Crash or reboot it self every time. I have tried unrooting the device several times I also tried Tried very popular ROMs like AOKP & CM and still they end up crashing within a day of use. I don't know what I am doing wrong here... I assumed it was the phone so I called Verizon to send me a replacement one but if anyone knows why this is only happening to me and not all the rest of my friends even Fiance then please let me know....
At the moment I am on stock ROM and Stock Kernel and still rebooting and crashing every time and its rooted so if anyone has any idea please let me know i am about to give me on this Phone....
P.S. If you have recommendations on ROMS or Kernels I can try besides Franco or Trinity that will be great, I also tried them and also the same problem
My gnex has recently started to do this as well. I think its an overheating issue because it'll "crash" when it feels really hot.

[Q] Random reboots and lock ups (memory leak?)

Hey all,
I've had this issue with everything but the stock rom. After a certain amount of time the phone either locks up to where I have to pop the battery, or will graphic glitch on the screen for a second and then auto reboot. Happens maybe 2-4 times a day depending on the day.
I've done a full wipe and full factory reset. I've been modding phones for ages and this is the first time I've encountered this issue. Everything else seems to run completely fine.
I'm running resurrection rom, but it's done this on several other roms I've tried. However all roms are AOKP/AOSP based if that's relevant.
If there is anymore information I can offer please don't hesitate to ask. I searched the forums and couldn't seem to find anyone else really talking about this. It can be a giant headache so hopefully I can get it sorted.

If this has just started recently in would say it is indeed apart of the cm base, and related to kernel issue. Since the kernel devs are using cm and their kernel base most ROMs kernels have the same base, which means in a round about way they may react the same way on your device. To me, you said graphic glitch, then reboot. I would bump up your voltage little by little and see if it stops, I also would change govs in the kernel.. I'm assuming it happens on any cm kernels you've tried? Yank555 has an awesome cm kernel I would highly recommend, or even imoseyon always has a solid stable cm kernel as well.
How are you transferring the firmware? The heavy cable with the heavy plug? If so, it might have damaged your device's USB port and is causing intermittent disconnections which are corrupting the data as it is transferred. Try a lightweight cable and make sure it is firmly seated, then don't let it move during the transfer.
If this solves it then maybe look into replacement due to faulty design.
Frank
It is happening on all roms, however the only custom roms I've tried are CM based. I'll take a look at these other kernels and see if that resolves. Thanks for the help and idea's so far guys.
I've been having the same issues. Hellish reboots though. 10+ a day... Keep me posted. Thanks
