Hello guys,
I have a really strange problem with my ringtones. Yesterday I installed a universal player , called TCPMP or smth like that. I dont know if that is related to my problem but I thought I should say. Today i missed a few calls because my phone didnt ring...at all. I checked in my ringtones folder (I use mp3s), and they didnt have any icon and when I tried to play them it said: " there is no application that supports this type of file", or smth like that. So I found smth in a thread here, and I editted the registry and my mp3s had icons again and the phone recognized them and played them again. BUT THE PROBLEM JUST BEGINS: the ringtone, the default one and the ones assigned, plays interrupted. U know, like an old cassette , or better saidlike the memory would be very full and the ringtone interrupts. Lets say a 10 seconds ringtone plays 2 seconds and theres a small pause and so on. It happens for every format: mp3, wav, mid. AND it doesnt happen when I play them in Windows media player. ONLY as ringtones. What should I do, besides a hard reset of course??? Thanks very much.
I have the same problem with the ringtone I have (it's a custom-made wave file, mono, 22KHz, 16bit samplerate, lasts about 1min 30 but usually never plays to the end ), I get the problem where it's almost like a buffer underrun, the audio cuts out for a fraction of a second, and then continues playing again, then does the same thing a few seconds later...
... I'm starting to think that it might be a CPU usage issue, too many things running in the background at the same time for the device to be able to play the ringtone and show that stupid animated graphic on the caller ID window when someone calls (I have pictures set for a few of my friends, but for everyone else it just shows the default graphic, I wish I could selectively disable it so only my mates' pictures show up, but I've not had much luck with that).
I've set my CPU to Turbo mode again, turned it off as it was using too much battery, so as soon as someone calls me I can see if it makes a difference to the ringtone playback issue
The issue is file associations. Once you add a new player mp3 ringtones aren't associated with Pocket PC Media Player & don't work. WOrk around is to use WMA ringtones (making sure that WMA is not associated with your new player)...
I've already tried re-association MP3 with WMP, to no avail, I tried hacks and patches suggested on another forum thread, and I tried the MP3Ringtones registry patch... No joy.
I'm beginning to suspect that there may be something tieing up the audio playback or excessively using the CPU, as I get slight jitter when playing back audio, and some MPEGs can't play back at full speed in PocketTV (for instance, there's one full-frame, 1300kbps MPEG file which PocketTV can't even render over 50% realtime speed, including in benchmark mode which doesn't playback any audio)...
... Currently in the hunt for many task managers to try and analyse the problem... Tried the one in the Airscanner Anti-Virus package, no joy (as I'm not 100% which processes are essential and which are extraneous to my XDA's operation) and I'm also looking for PHM Task Manager, but I can't get onto the PHM site and the download doesn't seem to be mirrorred anywhere.
The plot thickens yet more...
Update...
I've cleaned up my XDA somewhat, removed the O2 Active UI amongst other things, blah blah... I think I've managed to get the audio to stop cutting out entirely, but nobody's called since I've made the changes so I can't test it. Odd little thing I noticed, the audio glitches are happening every 5 seconds (regardless of when you start a file with audio playing / someone rings, triggering the ringtone playback)... It's almost as if there's a background process which is cycling every 5 seconds and using 100% of the available CPU for a fraction of a second... It's really starting to piss me off.
I have a fair few processes running when I check up on them using something like PHM Task Manager, but I'm not sure which processes are necessary to the XDA to keep it running without fuxoring it up... So I don't want to go testing purely on random choice. The audio glitching is definitely a regular occurence (every 5 seconds), very very strange...
Yes it's very annoying. Meanwhile I upgraded my qtek to the latest and it worked fine for a while. The ringtones were playing smoothly. But after that, I started to install some apps and games and now it's doing it again. I feel like throwing it to the garbage can. I heard that Pocketzenphone ****s up some phones and I have it too. Didnt try uninstalling it yet, cause it's really annoying to set it up after reinstalling. But I will do it soon to see if thats the cause.
Same issue
I have the same issue on my XDA2i- ringtone tends to "cut" out for half a second almost as if the unit cannot buffer the information fast enough- although this happens even on low memory/bitrate ring tones. I have also noticed that when I am playing some games (such as Skyforce) it "pauses" for a fraction of a second fairly frequently- although this is less noticable in flight mode. I wonder if any of my other apps is causing this- I run Pocket Informant, SPB Imageer, Pocket Music etc. Something in me is also questioning the O2 Active software and whether disabling this would help. Do you run any of the above apps?
no none of the above. Alsi I've heard that spb apps tend to create problems sometimes. I suspected Pocketzenphone and after I reinstalled it , the ringtones finally work fine and smoothly. I had to do a backup on the memory card, after that I did a hard reset and after the restore, my ringtones worked fine. But I guess my Mms problems are caused by Spb pocket plus. I say do a full backup then a hard reset and after that see if the ringtones work fine. If they do, it means its a third party program issue. Good luck!
My XDA 2i isn't running the O2 Active software any more, thanks to this forum providing a method to stop it from running , and I'm still experiencing the problems. I'm wondering if perhaps the animated photo caller feature is causing the CPU to overload (having to render the animation and play the sound file at the same time...
I run SPB Pocket Plus, but I don't really want to uninstall it (if everyone had the same problem, there'd be loads of complaints on this forum about it, surely?)... I think I might have to give it a try, though.
Aside from SPB Pocket Plus and O2 Plus 1.6 and the small Switch app (by hfrmobile.com), I have no other apps running. I try to keep CPU load on my XDA as low as possible, to save battery life, but obviously there's still a problem somewhere.
The problem happens with the CPU set to both Standard and Turbo mode too, so this makes me then think that it might not be a CPU issue as much as it's a problem with the method the XDA is using to decode and playback the audio... But I've checked my file associations (a handy feature which forms part of Pocket Tweak) and the .mp3 association is associated with Windows Media Player, as it should be.
Currently cycling through combinations of Today plugins loaded, killing all other processes except for the essential ones, and trying various things out. Will report back in a bit, after I've gone to have my root canal done one one of my front teeth, oh the joy.
LOL about your tooth problem.. Well I dont know what to say. It seems that for me uninstalling Pocketzenphone solved the problem. Myabe you should try upgrading to the latest unbranded formware , as I have.
PocketTV is processor intensive and I don't like it. Try The Core Pocket Media Player - much smoother. Check that you are running in Turbo mode (Settings/System/Power/Processor).
I used to be able to run PocketTV fine in either of the modes, very bizarre. I think I had an underlying problem with the system, something fuxored up somewhere along the way... I hear that some of the other problems I'm having are fixed with the 1.04 radio, so I'm currently flashing to that.
I didn't install TCPMP before now because I'd heard it can cause MP3 association problems etc etc, I'll definitely give it a shot once I get my XDA up and running again (and if it doesn't still have the problem where it's unable to connect to the O2 network, a problem it developed earlier yesterday afternoon - probably because of all the messing about I was doing with it trying to find out why my ringtones were stuttering!)
On the off hand, you don't happen to have any links to a freeware CPU indicator app? I have a couple of free process manager apps, but the only one I could find which would show me realtime CPU usage was Pocket Hack Master, and I'm absolutely and utterly penniless right now (I truly know how it feels to be skint now that I'm a student, I don't have two pennies to rub together ) If you have any info, I'd love to hear it. If you're using PHM too, then fair enough
The ROM flash worked, and I'm now running version 1.11.162 of the firmware with, crucially radio version 1.04. I read in one thread that this 1.04 update to the radio software helps to get rid of the stuttering ringtones, I've tried ringing myself a few times as I've been adding software to the XDA again, and I've had none of the stuttering problems I was experiencing before.
Give it a few days while this new installation beds itself down, but for the moment, we're looking hopeful! I think it's probably a registry issue or DLL issue, something multimedia-orientated is causing a conflict and leaving it there even if you uninstall it or reassign file assocations in the future... What a pain.
Anyway, it looks like the radio upgrade might just have solved it, and I believe you can upgrade the radio on its own now (see other forum threads for more info about this, I don't have the links to hand right now).
Well you've done well to upgrade, but I had this problem even with the exact version that you uograded too. I use that one now. Its not a firmware issue, but, as you said, a dll or association problem. And, about that tcpmp I would think twice, as the s.o.b. changed my file associations and the phone dindnt recognize mp3s at all. Do a full backup on your card before trying that one.
Hmm, strange. I associated pretty much most of the files EXCEPT for MP3 and WAV with TCPMP, deliberately, to make sure that it didn't try to hijack existing registry settings. I might dump the entire registry to a backup file with PHM Registry Editor before I try associating the files.
I've also not turned on photo caller ID yet, it just shows the default window with the caller information without that dorky animated graphic.
I've also not installed SPB Pocket Plus yet, I'll have to try that sometime soon as well. I can remember the problem not starting to happen until a while after SPB Pocket Plus was installed though, so I'm not sure if that was the trigger for it or not. Hmm...........
Pocket plus might "kid around" too, as I suspect it for messing up my MMS receiving. I can only send, never get the mms. But thats another story. The idea is that, for some of us, Pocket plus also does a bit of a conflict there.
Resolved it
My "pausing" ringtone problem was resolved simply be removing O2 Active software. The whole unit works better now. Installed SPB as well to customise it, and it looks much better now as well. The only feature I think I will miss is the "connection setup" facility where you choose either GPS or GPRS and it sets up connections. Is there any way of running this without the O2 Active interface?
I've just had the same problem on my xdaIIi, although I've had the problem a few times before. I actually get very few calls so find it hard to pin-point when the problem starts. It's nothing to do with the processor (I've overclocked mine) and it's nothing to do with TCPMP, I've had this on my device for ages with no problem. Never had SPB Pocket Plus so that's not the problem (for me)
I'll tell you how i got rid of it and hope someone else actually finds out why it happens.
I simply backed up my device using xBackup, hard reset and restored using backed up file.
Problem gone.
Hope this helps someone.
It's gotta be some kind of file association problem. Let's put it like this though, I paid for SPB Pocket Plus, and after I hard reset my device the problem hasn't reappeared. I probably did something else to it too (when I first got it I tweaked it to ****, to put it concisely), but aside from about two features, I don't miss the 'enhancements' SPB Pocket Plus gave me.
Shame, cause I paid for it 'n all.
Don't see why a file association would cause a pause while ringing, it wouldn't play at all. If you choose any of your mp3 players it will play quite normally if you just played the file, the problem only occurs when the phone rings...
I've also know the problem can go away by it's self without messing around with different players/settings.
With my 663Mhz overclocked xdaIIi i can have over 4-5 different players and have them all play the same file at the same time with no problem, so it's not an overhead problem either....
I have also noticed this '5 second' rule too, this is not a file association problem!
Maybe too many dll's left over from trying various different programs?
It's strange how doing a hard reset and restoring from a backup that actually had the problem goes away! It should come back again theoretically.
I've never had the o2 interface installed on my device for nearly years and i tried lots of different programs to clean up my system (bad unistalls, leftover shortcuts, etc) but made no difference! :-(
It seems that my phone will sometimes randomly start running out of battery really fast and memmaid shows that the process filesys.exe is taking up the processor at a 100% load. I know that this is part of how windows mobile accesses its storage systems, but I doubt that it's normal. Anyone else having the same problem?
All red items have been uninstalled to see if they were the cause.
I'm running:
Touch-IT full ROM
Battery Status beta 1.04
Default Company Picture Viewer
S2U2 0.5
PocketCM Contacts 0.15
ClearTemp
OP3 ShortCode
FlashVideoBundle
Picsel Browser (Which BTW since installing has made my free space significantly shrink...)
vTap
TRE (reg editor)
memmaid demo
PocketTweak
Pocket Notepad
tGetFile.dll
PocketWeather
HTC Home
Total Commander
psShutXP
Mobile Office
hmm... That list suddently feels a lot longer than it did before. lol
But nothing is running in the background with the exception of ActiveSync.
Thanks guys

Update: It seems that the two coredll's are taking the most resources, but I can't test this out as I don't have any software that can break it down for me, except for abctaskman or whatever it's called and that's only a demo so it won't show me which module is using what other than the other of their CPU usage.
UPDATE: I thought that maybe it was a similar issue to this, but that it was running the compaction on my memory card since I had set the volatile temp to run from that... but that hit a wall as well when I made it run on the main memory again.
UPDATE: I forgot to mention that I also have the Extended ROM enabled as well.
MODS, can we please move this to one of the general forums? I'm not sure which one would be best, though....
OK, so far I've found out that it's a problem not only with this ROM but with WM5 on other devices.
Here is a patch for another device and OS. What I'm trying to figure out is what exactly he patched so we can do the same to our file for our phones.
HI !
I run the German Touch-IT Rom with S2U2 and have the same Problems. Here is what i found out:
- Battery drains in 3-4 Hours IF mortplayer has been started. I usually use Mortplayer to wake me up in the morning. My Music is stored on the SD Card, but this has always been this way.
- I have problems with the batteriy since S2U2 was installed.
-> Maybe Su2u does not suspend our Herald, so that the SD-Card is not suspended, too. Maybe filesys.exe (and with this mortplayer and also HTC Home) randomly ask if the card is still available - Which consumes a lot of power.
...
What do you think ?
I will delete S2U2 when i don´t need the wakeup function this weekend
Hmm... It started around the same time that I added S2U2... I'll try to remove it and see what happens.
I temporarily disabled S2U2 but no change.
Updated with more info.
I hate to bump my own thread, but it seems that updating the thread doesn't bring it up any higher. I wonder if anyone else was having the same exact issue?
I'm determined to solve this problem, as it brings my battery life to a sad 6 hours if the EDGE is on, about 9 hours when it's not. And that's with me underclocking it half the time... and the screen brightness down... and with the phone in "hybernate" or whatever you call the screen being off most of the day...
S2U2 actually did dramatically decrease my battery life... Uninstalling fixed it. Just thought I'd say that; I don't know anything about your other issues, sorry.
I have the same problem too on a mda vario (wizard) with wm6 rom(Dutch version) more info about the rom: http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/350255/
I have been searching around for a solution. But I could not find one.
Here is my list of the modules filesys.exe has loaded according to Memmaid:

Does anyone have found a solution for this problem?
whixh general??
there is "development and hacking" or "modifying and upgrading" i´m also NOT sure
S2U2 has also caused a battery drain on my wing as well. As i am sure it is the #1 reason my wing will crash (lock up) then when i reboot the wing it freezez permently on the password screen. i have tried numberious soft resets. with and without the microsd in... eventually i have to hard reset!
all applications that is running on your homescreen is consuming battery, because its constantly loaded in memory.
If you want a battery that last long, you need to remove sd-card, htc home, cube, touchflo, point-ui or w/e you use to make your device look cool.
you can put it this way, the more stuff you have, the more cool stuf you have, the faster is your battery draining. Ofcourse you can run BS and set up your device with tweaks and w/e, but in the end it all comes to what you want, lasting battery or a "cool" looking device.
In my personal rom, I use htc home, I like it. I use actionscreen and random acces. I have BS to configure battery usage, I deleted EVERYTHING that I dont use in the rom, and yes, it last way longer then fully or moderate loaded roms, but im sure if I kept only basic os, i could prolong battery with a day or two, but I dont need that. I have a device that is compatible to run so many cool things, and I have it because of the many features.
If you can figure out what you want to use in a daily basis, and you can manage to stay away from the heavy eyecandy-stuff (wich you keep to impress your friends) then you can have a longer batterylife
hi guys,
i had the same problem with S2U2, but since i use the cpu-scaler in battery status it's ok.
My battery lifes 3-4 days.
My settings from cpu-scaler: 130 - 201 - 234 without boost.
so i hope this will help you to cause your problem.

3-4 days!? is that with no data usage, no talking, pretty much letting ur phone just sit on the table? because the ABSOLUTE most i can get is 1 1/2 days. That sounds a lil too extreme...
did someones try filesys patcher from aximsite?
i'm using gprs over bt always on, a2dp (3-4hours daily), ~50 sms, opera mini and mobilegadu (im) and after 20hours i still got ~40% on this battery and this unit. i had another herald earlier and it was not possible to have 12hours without charging...
and btw - ive got s2u2 running all time and after it is cooked into rom its not using so much energy..
but a2dp draining more battery than on other devices (wizard, universal...)

no, i uses my phone every day for 20min calling, 30sms and 1 hour gprs internet.
I used to have O2 Neo as my device, and when I tried to install "some apps from HTC rom", I notice a warning about battery drain bug of HTC Camera from some mods and admins in another forum.
Now I owned a HTC P4350 and have HTC Camera as defaul camera app on ROM. My battery always drains above 100mA or even 300mA . Do you think that it's caused by the HTC Camera appplication ? any idea how to remove it from ROM ????

Hello
Here the same. After I uninstalled S2U2 the battery was longer full.
Regards, Tommy
I seem to also have a problem with S2U2 on the LGKS20. Its a pity because its not just eye candy - its the only app I ever found that prevents accidental answer etc.. I also had massive battery drain with SPB mobile shell. bummer
Hi, My Diamond seems to have memory leak issue.
I soft reset my device, the memory is 55% but after a activesyn the memory become 60%. If i open any program, the memory go up and will not release after the program is closed.
Any solutions?
Same solution as with any PC? Reboot.
My Diamond has been up to 70% memory, without any programs running.
This is why i think the RAM of Touch Diamond is not enough.
didn't run anything, but still got 65% or higher RAM usage. even with a Lite rom.
it sucks.

Make sure the application is closed, rather than minimized. Minimize an application has the benefit of being able to re-start quicker the next time. Closing (quiting) the application has the benefit of releasing the memory, if not all.
this is a WM6.1 issue not your diamond.
Guys, are there any tools which can let us check which applications or processes are occupying memory?

What programs do you have that wont run on 35% free ram?
even with 72% usage you still have over 30 megs free!
I have never had a problem running an app on my Diamond due to lack of ram.
How often are you seeing the "Not enough available ram" message?
Jules
Yeah I get the same sort of problem to,
Throughout the day, connecting my Diamond to my laptop at work, use activesync, update the weather, sending texts and also looking at pictures on my phone, and playing the occasional game, my memory will get to about 65% free.
Yes I can continue to use my phone, and its not a major problem but its a niggle that could do with being sorted.
When the memory usage gets to 70% I then Soft Reset the Device as this always speeds it up.
It is the best Windows Mobile phone ive owned, and I use the Soft Reset function alot less on my Diamond than I have before.
However it would be nice to own a Diamond without having to Soft Reset it so often. The memory leak issue needs to be fixed Microsoft!!!!!!! Take note!

When your diamond is with 70% or higher ram usage, try to play a song and then open the opera or IE, they will lag your music. You still think 30MB ram is that much?

Yip just did that
Memory was on 79% with Icontacts and Second Today Phone Alarm and Pocket Breez running
Started a song in Manila Music (Korn YAY!!!) listening on A2DP via my Plantronics 855 then opened a web site in Opera. as Opera was opening the song jumped twice for a split second and then played fine. I surfed a few sites and skipped songs using the headset controls all without problems Then I took a call and had one on hold all without a hitch, after I ended the second call the music started up again and I opened a new website
By now the memory was at 88% and it still worked fine.
Don't know if its the Rom I'm using (Shine On 1.5) but my device seems to cope with its ram with no problems. Even with only 13megs free ram Manila was as responsive as with 40megs free.

From what I've read in other posts here I see that the average memory use is about 30-40%. Well mine is at 77%, with only Gyrator2 running in the background, and without 70%. I have the newest Aztor ROM, but even before, with the original ROM the memory use was the same as now.
Is there something wrong with my hardware and is there something I could do to lower the memory use?
try nataly rom. try kitchen tree too. around 70mb free!
Percentage memory use will depend on which ROM you have installed. Also some ROMs have a bigger page pool and so have less RAM available. These sytems will then show higher percentage used, even with the same number of MB free.
How much?

Where did you get this figure from? (30-40% memory usage!) - I've tried pretty much every ROM in this forum (and few stock ROM's too), and I've never had mine below 60% after soft-reset. You may be thinking about Touch Pro, which has twice as much RAM! If anyone can show me how to have 30-40% RAM usage, please spill the beans! (Not that I've ever needed anymore RAM. I leave alsorts running constantly on my device and I've never had a 'low memory' warning.

As above - load (just for test) Nataly Rom, and after start, with tf3d you'll have 47-49% EASY...
My memory use at startup is normally below 50% but I'm not using a ROM with TF3D... I'm running SPB Pocket Plus and TouchPal (which uses about 3MB but well worth it.)
Use can drop below 40% if I disable the HTC dialer and use the standard WM one instead.
So I guess as long as no warnings pop up, I don't have to worry?
My memory shows 52% after soft reset regardless of what I have installed onto it. After using RSS, Internet and Email it hits over 75% and becomes very slow. I can kill these apps and get down to about 60-65% so I generally just soft reset after this and I'm back to 52%. This is with stock Orange UK 1.93 ROM.
Just did a soft reset on my Diamond with the stock Sprint ROM and TF3D running. Only active task in the pull-down is Activesync and I'm at 31%
After a soft reset my memory is 47%.
I have a clean boot though but it runs various system programs like Touch Response, probably not much of a difference but I guess I could get that percentage lower.
I also deleted every shortcut in the startup folder in windows, it doesn't give any noticeable problems (yet).
The startup programs were:
AutoShortcut.ink
HTC StartUp.ink
poutlook.ink
After some usage the memory usage climbs to 50~60%. I don't use the Internet browser at all.
Something strange though, some games like Flux Challenge wont run smoothly (when using touch control of your race ship) after a soft reset. Even when my memory is at 50~52% it wont run too smooth anymore...
Does anybody knows what these startup programs do anyway???
Just did a soft reset and my memory is at 62% with WLAN turned off, not much difference when I have Gyrator2 on in the background. Though as soon as I start a application like the album, it jumps up to 80-88%.
When i startup i have about 45-50%. When doing alot of things, i never come higher than 75% or something....
Do you use the newest ROM?

After removing my Startup items I am still at 51% after soft reset so it hasn't made much difference (AnswerKeysDisabler, AsyncKiller, AutoShortcut, batti, HTCStartUp, poutlook). After this I disabled TF3D and soft reset gave me 44%. I find TF3D and some of those startup items are too useful to disable and if I did disable TF3D I would need to add today items which would probably bump it back up to about 48-50% anyway.
EDIT: Just found this option in Opera to clear disk cache on exit and it has helped a bit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3009554 or you can redirect the cache which may be better: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2791743
I've got arround 47 - 49 %. Sometimes around 55% but when i wait i few secs, it drops to 47 -49 % again. I used the Diamond Tweak to disable the Diamond Phone Pad. So right i have the default windows phonepad.
I also have Memmaid installed. And tweaked the system with this tool.
Also i configured memmaid to kill every unusable processes at 12:00 h.
So all day long i have a fast system.
I use the latest HTC NLD rom (2.03)

I heard about ClearTemp and was about to use it until I saw a thread on here saying it had cleared all files off the device including internal storage and the only recovery option was a backup (if one had been done before this happened) or a hard reset. I decided not to take the risk and try to find out where the files were located and delete them manually. (I have only looked for Opera so far but when I get time I'll search for the rest).

hehe ok, thanks
Hi,
I'm not a big user of music on my Captivate, but last day I tried to play some mp3s and had a bad surprise.
First song always plays normally but the player freeze everytime I press next.
I tried with different players (stock player, 3, Player Pro) and it has always the same behaviour.
I'm running Axura 1.01 with recommended lagfix option.
The only thing I modified I could think of, that could have a link with the music, would be unistalling DRM service (to solve battery drain issue).
I didn't freeze this service (uninstalled if for real ) so I can't really check if it's the source of the problem.
Any idea/help is welcome
Thanks!
I had problems playing music for awhile it turned out to be my external memory card going bad it would still work in my old phone but for some reason it would start skipping and freezing in my captivate got a new card no more problem

Mount the card on your PC and run a check disk
If you still have problems, save your data and run a FULL format.
Thanks for the replies
It's still not working, my music is located on the internal SD of the captivate. I tried removing my "external" SD, just in case, but it doesn't change anything, music app is still freezing when changing song =/
Any other idea?
Flash to stock and see if the issue still happens?
Seriously though - this is a valid bug for the Auxura dev to address. If the folks running the ROM do not have this issue ... its possible that you will need to re-flash the ROM again to fix it.
