First I'm sorry if there is something out there to help me with this that I over looked, but after weeks of going through several forums for various issues I am going to ask for help.
I've put PocketSNES 2.00 on my tilt along with a few roms. The roms are on the Tilt and PocketSNES is on my storage card. (I've tried to put it on the phone but when I run it I get, "the file POCKETSNES cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file")
I've also installed tgetfile.ppc.arm.cab which I read somewhere that it was needed.
Well when I open the app then load the rom it takes its time to open. When it opens it runs extremely choppy. I would say it refreshs the screen every 20 to 30 seconds. I've fiddled with every setting I can, yet still super slow performance.
What am I doing wrong?
running it from a storage card i guess
there is something floating about on how to disable that security thing that will prolly let you install it on the main memory and that might just fix your issue
I cannot get the GBA emmy to run properly either - rather the buttons don't seem to do jack ****.
You can use SK Tools to get rid of that message or just find it in the registry yourself.
Ive been playing with nops pocket snes for the last few days with similar results. Very choppy, pretty much unplayable. One thing to remember is that you cant use the screen for controller buttons. Whenever you touch and hold it slows down to almost a stop. I use the keyboard for buttons.
I found it in the registry but it was already disabled. I'm pretty sure it was
hklm/security/certmod/allowuntrustedapps set to 1
There was another mention of changing 000101a in another folder but it was set to 1 as well.
Are you sure this SKTools will work on the Kaiser/Tilt. I tried it and it said that it was disabled. Lastly I found that the kaisertweak app had the option set to disable the error. Grrr
I just tried running it and the roms from main storage, still no good.
snes
I have pocket snes it runs perfect with no sound also have pocketnester(nes) pocketgnuboy(gameboy) and they all work perfect and you can sound working great too except on the snes. I have them all on my card 4gb sandisk and the roms are on the card as well. I have the tytn 2 stock rom with your basic tweaks. took them off my wizards memory card and just continued to play where I left off. also have pocketgba but its far from perfect and slow. u can probally google them. if u need more help just send me a pm if you need help with settings etc. also on the snes u can play perfect with no sound and run ur mp3s so its the emu that can't handle sound not the phone.
Sounds like another reason to go to the htc rom.
Yeah, I play with no sound, but that sux. I'm using the helmi rom, but also tried it with the HTC rom. I also have pocket nester working great.
I saw a method involving certifying the app but I think that might be beyond my scope.

Bad news the @ssholes at HTC still haven't managed to fix this problem - this has been a problem with ALL their 2.8" devices for TWO YEARS!!
Guys, I *really* hope you've been closely following my emulation-related Bibles in the General forum. If you don't want to search them one by one, you can find them all at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&cat=353
You might also want to give a try to alternative emulators to find out whether they're any good.

I actually did read most of them, thats how I got into pocket Doom. I have Wolf3D, doom, and these emulators.
Hi!
When I listen to music on my Diamond the sound often lags. In other words, during music playback, I often get small brakes. Half a second of silence or something like that at random. It usually happens around 1-2 times each track. I get it both when I'm using the default player and when I'm using S2P.
I'm not running any other programs in the background when listening to music. My Diamond has the default Norwegian ROM.
I really hate this lag. Anyone with the same problem? How can I fix this?
Thanks!
Same problem here. But I get lags just every 10 minutes - German HTC Rom
Im pretty sure that EVERYONE using the diamond is suffering from this..
It's just that nobody seem to take this seriously... *sigh*
I got the stock 1.93 HK ROM.. and I got it in all the other ROMs previously.
Can some expert find out if there's an active process in the background that causes this?
I'm also having this really annoying problem.
At first I thought it was because of Coreplayer, but it seems all musicplayers are having this problem. Because I use the Diamond as my musicplayer when I go to work, I'd really like to get this fixed asap.
I'm having the same issue, on TLR 3. Dunno if the bug was there on other roms because I rearely play music on my diamond.
Yea.. I believe it's present in ALL ROMs..
Wonder does HTC know abt this...
Yep, same problem here, with various ROMs (1.93 as well). It's happening for me in ringtones as well (when playing solo but as well when I get a call). And with WMP and the HTC player.
A solution would really be welcome..
Thanks for all the replies. It's nice to know that I'm not the only one with this problem. I'm really hoping for a solution.
I tried playing 3 songs and I experienced no lag whatsoever until I got too adventurous. I switched on WiFi and open Internet Explorer and go to a website and the Diamond hanged on me.
I believe this is not only due to the ROMs but also due to hardware as well.
i also hate the loading time when opening music for the firs ttime after reboot..
i dont understand why is there a need to "buffer" music and lags the whole phone so badly..
is it loading the album or scaning for album artS?
i wrote a thread about this problem earlier.-
No1 has any solution for this.
Im still suffering lags.
I think it's a HTC problem.
Because I've had this problem on the p3300, Nike, and Diamond!

Never had this prob on the 3300 and Cruise.
It's just on the diamond.
HTC!! pls fix this up!!
I'm in Hong Kong, and my Diamond also have this problem
I dial to HTC care, and they said this is the known issue
and said will fix it later
But a later past ... past ... past
At the 23/July I saw the new firmware, and think maybe can fix this problem
However, no help ....
And I dial to HTC care again, they play one music to me on the phone and said no lag = ="
I said the phone will randomly sound lag, but within 5~6 songs must have one lag or above
Then he said, he will notice to HTC and I still need wait wait wait
Diamond said this cell phone is a multimedia cell phone, so If the music have a problem, and they can't fix
I guess we must keep going to post it, and gather all the post to HTC and let's all the world know
I really love the diamond, but can't accept this bug
Thanks
I had this on my Polaris and Nike, now I just got a Elf and haven't noticed it at all. Maybe a Qualcomm issue :S
We simply have to admit that HTC is unable to produce error-free phones.
I can assure that this bug is re-occurent on all Diamond devices - regardless which ROM you use.
The only difference is timing. Some get the drop-sound after average 1 inute- others have it only occasionaly.
i first thought it was a conversion error, or soft, but 4 mediaplayers I used result in the same bug.
And it doesn't look like the new build solved it indeed.
Check HTC E-club for a fix - (in 6-9 months or so) - or hope that one of our XDA goeroes can find a fix.
Suggest to make this thread a sticky as i is ineed one of the most famous known bugs of the Diamond. (or integrate it with other related threads)
Have same problem.
I have the same problem and it is annoying me like crazy. I noticed the problem gets much worse when using the audio booster - with it I get lags every couple of minutes, when I turn it off - I get them only every few songs or so. It's still not acceptable, tho. Maybe there's a way to tweak the sound buffer for WM in the registry? Increasing the buffer can probably help this...
I'm using SwiftBL 4.5 ROM, and this proplem has been reduced significantly!
Previously, these pauses occur randomly, and may happen twice at a time and for longer duration at a time.
Now with the SwiftBL4.5 ROM, I get it exactly every 5mins, and a very very slight disruption. It's definitely an improvement.
The fact that it happens exactly every 5mins, prolly means theres some processes causing this to happen in the background.... hmmm
I think that the problem is TOUCH FLOW 3D. When the time changes it happens I have seen it happen twice like that but it can also be coincidence. What I saw was. When the time changes from 01.09 to 01.10 it has to change to things. the 0 to the 1 and the 9 to the 0. And I think that is the problem. Then i kept music playing and was looking at the phone constantly then next time it happened was 01.29 to 01.30 this time it had to change the 2 to the 3 and the 9 to the 0. But the main thing is that he did not brake during the 01.19 to 01.20 change. I AM CONFUSED. IS THIS THE PROBLEM OR NOT. Can any of the devs look at this? or can anyone one try plying music with TF3D disabled?
Most of the time my music lags is when cell reception is going nuts.. like for instance if i'm on the train going through a tunnel, the cell reception will cut out and try to regain the reception.. i notice my music lag most when this happens.
Hello everyone ,
Does someone experiences the same problems as seen in this thread for the Touch HD?

To sum up, there's little 'freezes' lasting 4-5 seconds where the screen doesn't respond to any inputs.
It occurs randomly and without reason.
HTC released an hotfix regarding this problem, that can be found here:
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=0&dl_id=448

However, this is for the Blackstone. When executed on the X1, there is a message box saying
"Please use the correct device to install this hotfix program"
The fix can be extracted and there's a _setup.xml that seems to tell what the .exe does;
I was wondering if it were possible to port it for the X1 as the Blackstone and the X1 are somewhat similar?
NB:
Hard resets didn't helped neither, freezes are also present.
I'm using this:
ROM Version: 1.02.933.3
ROM Date: 08/29/08
Radio Version: 1.06.25.29
Software Version: R1AA017
I also have these freezes occasionally.
I managed to install the files from the hotfix the other night, (because, well because I like to experiment) I spent 5 times as long removing them.
The display inverted, but not the calibration!
ill change the cab info install at your own risk.
however i do not have this issue. I have an issue of after long idels of not using my x1 at work the screen will apear to be cracked but the images are really cracked. a soft reset fixes this issue. (this is ment for a seperate thread) just giving you info on other display bugs on the x1
also can you upload the cab as the htc site will not allow me to download it.
My issue is actually with the camera... if you leave the Camera application on a long time, like 20-30 minutes idle, it will eventually crash, and it will say Camera.exe has stopped responding (or something like that, asking if you want to send a report to MIcrosoft)
just get freezes when i use the HTC album. other then that, nope.
Here's the .exe (renamed to .cab since xda seems to block .exe),
for those who can't manage to download it.
@Shadowmike
Thanks for your help
Sorry to go off topic a little :
Regarding your idle screen problems, I don't have any of it (maybe because I'm experimenting tweaks with it a lot so don't have time to idle really long )
May it be related to GWES:

To sum up, there's an interesting registry value named PORepaint that can take values from 0 to 3.
The key I would change may be:
HKLM\System\GWE\PORepaint
The factory default on my X1 is 0 but for your problem, I would set it's value to 2.
Personal Feedback:
When you press the ON button in order to wake the screen, the screen goes blanks for few milliseconds (blank flash), but it's repainting the entire area.
No major speed issues noticed between 0 and 2 values.
Hope this helps
I have the same problem with my X1, using the latest R2 rom (generic UK). It annoys the most when playing games like Bejeweled 2 and the screen suddenly freeze for a few seconds although the game and time keep running in the background and when it stop freezing I already lose time/points. It also happens with every other game I tried playing, even after hard reset. Any fix available yet?

Exactly what I get. It is most encountered in games where you touch the screen rapidly. Suddenly the whole OS freezes for 5-6 seconds then continues for some time until you get it again. It is very annoying.
Exactly. It happens ONLY with rapid screen presses. I observed this when typing.
Yes. This happens to my X1 also. It is possible to reliably replicate this bug.
The shadowmike's Cab didn't do anything usefull. So the HTC's Hotfix for the HD doesn't apply
Anyway, I made a Video describing this bug:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cOhX8yY5Yk
Hm.. Yesterday right after I did that video, I flashed my X1 with the newest official ROM (version 1.03.931.8 (dated 12/21/08)) from this site. Then, I installed the shadowmike's cab. After the soft reset, the problem hasn't (yet) surfaced (plus the system seems more responsive). Fingers crossed .
Edit: Nope.. False alarm. It still happens. Though rarely..
yup...
it happens...
doesn't really concerns me though...this is windows mobile anyway

Youtube a$$hole$ seem to have removed your video for some reason, was a good one though, wonder if they get commission from SE. Maybe you can post it on a different video site...

Strange.. I can still access and see the video (no cookies works too). Does the video still appear deleted? Or was it just a glitch
Aye, same here... Mostly when playing insaniquarium. I just tried the .cab fix, didn't fix anything for me

it happens to me as well...i think this generic bug in x1.
So how do I reliably test the bug ? It happens to me sometimes, but I did not find the pattern yet.
Watch my video (top of this page) to see how I did it (I've shot myself (with a camera ) couple of times doing it).
If that doesn't work, try to load some app. Like any game that somehow reacts to your touch (even Bejeweled works). Then try touching really fast and repeatedly. It shoud happen.
Here's a sound recording of me tapping a jewl in Bejeweled (i'm really hitting the display, do it more gently). It should give you an idea how fast you need to tap. Right before 0:06 the screen stopped responding, i did 4 taps to verify, and then another, and then it started responding again (3 more taps). Sometimes all it takes is 5 seconds (like it did here), but other times, your hand will start to hurt before it happens. Just rest a little bit and then try it again.
Hi all,
I thought that I'd share my experience with everyone.
I have had endless problems with today plugins displaying properly. Some wouldn't display at all. System was terribly slow on startup after a soft reset. Some plugins would cause device to hang and required several soft resets. I then purchased SafeMode and that helped a lot.
But, my dear friends, the problem, the actual culprit was......yes, you guessed it....HTC HOME CUSTOMISER!!!!!!!
I decided to run Spb Mobile Shell as my GUI and the today screen would never refresh properly. So I decided to uninstall HHC, as I hadn't actually opened the app in months. I changed today to Alienware almost a year ago and never used it again.
Guess, what.....EVERYTHING works properly now. And I mean EVERYTHING. All plugins install and work fine, Spb runs like a bullet train, Changing from Portrait to landscape by sliding keyboard out is so snappy, I don't even have time to count to 2!!!
The other major culprit was PhoneAlarm. This app chews up so many system resources, it is scary. Ever since I removed these two apps, I have restored my faith in these devices.
So, if anyone is experiencing similar problems, then try uninstalling HHC and if you are running PhoneAlarm, then uninstall that also and see how your device behaves.
Hi
I have been using Tracky for a while and never got it to run smooth on WM6.0/WM6.1
Here is a mail I sent the developer:
"I have one problem with it:
When it has been running for a while, it gets incredible slow. It still works, but get very unresponsive to user inputs. And it slows down the hole system as well.
Disabling GPS, online services, map and POIs does not solve the problem.
If I restart Tracky, it will run smooth again. But I cannot do that while recording a track...
Device is TyTN2. Running latest WM 6.1"
After some testing I found that disabling TouchFlo helped a lot. Tracky would run fine, but the system was slowed down. Everything that was cached was running fine, but the file system was slowed badly down.
Yesterday I flashed joshkoss WM6.5 21501 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493044 and now everything is running perfect
QUESTIONS:
Has anybody experienced similar problems ?
Has Tracky ever been able to run smooth on the Kaiser ?
