I've been trying to get the flash interface for whoneedsaniphone.com to work on the Tilt with HTC TyTN II rom, but no such luck. Anyone else got this to work and would like to share their process?
Thanks so much!
Just had a look when I saw your post, didn't have a problem loading it.
Looks like it could be a pretty promising interface, a bit basic at the moment.
Make sure you follow the instructions, you don't need the .NET package, but you definitely need the Flash Lite package as it is built on flash.
One to keep my eye on.
if i were you, i'd leave this alone for the time being. i've played about with it a lot on both Hermes and Touch, finding it still buggy, slow and unreliable.
there's update to come soon, but how soon we can't tell since one of the guys working the project has just had a kid. well, his lady has anyway.
we were promised some sort of release "within the next few days", and that was over a month ago, so bookmark the page but don't hold your breath...
Thanks, Dr. J. I will definitely keep my eyes out. I agree it is a bit slow. I don't see using the launcher interface everyday, but it's cool to see what I can do with the TyTN II.
Robw1978--I did install FlashLite 2.1 and it still gives me errors on the Tilt with HTC rom. I've read mixed reports of successes and failures on various problems on the TyTN II. I was able to get it working on the Hermes.
What errors are you getting? I'm tried it out on mine and it ran just fine (still very buggy tho). Did you put everything in one folder? You should also soft reset after you make any settings changes since you can't kill FUIServer from the task manager.
No dice on my Tilt either... followed the instructions to the letter, even did a hard reset just to see if it was something else on my Tilt, but it won't work. Oh well for now...
Thanks for letting me/us know that it didn't work for you either.
I loaded the software onto my Hermes and it shows promise.
Has anyone experienced the following:
I have tried several different ROMS. After I flash the ROM things go really well. All is working, running fast and then after 24 to 36 hours my device just gets so bogged down that it takes a long time to do anything. Any program I launch will easily take at least 30 seconds to launch if it launches at all. If i soft reset it does nothing for the problem. I have changed batteries to see if that helped (of course it didnt nor did I expect it too). All that fixes it is another hard reset.
Does this sound like an issue i need to send the phone into HTC for? Possible hardware issue? Could a bad SD Card cause something like that? HARD SPL? Anyone else been through this? thanks in advance guys/gals

Have you used cooked and shipped roms too?
If you have not tried, try to flash a shipped rom and see how goes. If it will go well then try to reflash with your preferred cooked one.
If you have already tried a shipped one, I don't know, it's a little strange. If you thik to have a bad SD card, try to use the pda without it. But I don't think it can cause all the things you have written.
I had a similler issue and a clear storage solved it.
after flashing your HD or any other pocket pc with cocked or original ROM, it always recommend it to do a cealr storage from settings-->systems--> clear storage.
do a clear storage and i am sure your issue will dissapear.
good luck

What do you mean with "major problems"?
What you described is really weird.
I flash too all the time, but the HD never gets slow.
Is clear storage for your SD card then?

when i tried to copy stuff from my card onto my pc to back up the data it kep freezing up on my pc and became unreadable. i would have to take the card out and start again. Eventually i just formatted it and now it works great. No clear storage doesnt appear to be for the storage card but I tried it. I had so much stuff on my SD card that im sure my HD was trying to run programs and since my SD card was unreadable it was killing the device.
I had a similar problem, and I was forced to format my SD card too. Luckily I was able to save 95% of contents before to lose everything .I experienced some folders became unreadable (unaccessible), and card was full of "strange" folders with unreadable characthers and improbable sizes (I thought I had some terabyte ).
I think stock microsd isn't the best... Simply I must remember to backup it more often
Exactly like mallman, formatting solved the problem

Well the only difference is that my problem came back this morning which was after formatting yesterday. I have determined my card is bad so I swapped it out for a new card and we will see how that goes. If my device is having the problem and i just take the card out my device runs like a champ, pop it back in and slooooow I agree, I will get my card on a regular backup schedule very soon. Well, once my ned 16gb gets here. This 8 gig is just too small lol
I ran into a problem like yours when using WAD 2 on my Polaris with particular cooked ROMS that seemed to have a SD card problem....see post on Lakeridge here where someone pointed out to me where the problem was coming from http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14568&highlight=WAD+storage , the only way I fixed the problem was flashing to a different ROM.

checking it out now. I can tel lyou that this has to be the porblem because of course my 8gb card wasnt the solution because my device is dog slow AGAIN lol
edit: ok i will try a new rom and see. I have had this problem with Dutty's and Dav, if it happens to a third rom I will try th estock ROM and if it happens there I am spellbounded
HD is not slow. If yours takes 30 seconds to respond, something is wrong. I would take a look at the SD card. I used to have this problem in my Athena, causing constant freezes and soft reset. When I did a sktools benchmarking, it was clear that the unit was reading and writing to the card extremely slowly. I reformatted the card with incorrect parameter causing that problem. After reformatting with the formating parameter, my Athena resume the nomal fast response.

Check out Johnpatcher's barebone ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472972. I find it runs excellent but you'll need to archive CABs of your favorite programs. The performance I think is great, commented about that in the thread too (WAD 2 on the ROM), I have like 70% - 65% free memory all day.
ok testing touch of HD with WAD2 to see if I can replicate teh problem. (fingers crossed)

I had it running on Laurentis's ROM too without a problem. Shame he seems to have left. But i do really recomend the barebones ROM, at first boot it only used 10% mem.
Anyway, hope it works for you and keep those theme's coming

well i never had a problem with the shipped rom and WAD2. I can confirm that touch of HD rom also shows the same problem. I can try the barebones rom and see what happens then if it doesnt work i am going back to shipped rom because nothign beats WAD2 (in my humble opinion)
and ps. i have tried multiple SD cards so i confirmed that isnt the problem

Maybe you might want to PM those cookers to let them know about the bug, it was prevalent on many Polaris ROMS too for some time. Good luck, the barebones ROM hasn't had any problems so far, its fast and very responsive but lacks the bells and whistles of the bigger ROMS.
Now that you are speaking of, I can confirm I was using WAD2 (the trial, I don't think is important...) when I had the problem.
I'm currently NOT using at the moment because too many problems still with TF3D and no more problem with microSD card.
At this point I think I'll wait a little before to try again
I too would like to use WAD!
just wanted to report back so far so good with the stock ROM. Ive rebooted and done all kinds of things that typically kill it with the cooked ROMs.
strange story!!
maybe you make too many themes??

Well just for everyone's knowledge, still no problems with stock ROM so I am willing to say problem solved. I cant run a cooked ROM and expect to use WAD2 I will start PM'ing all the cooks I see tomorrow and letting them know this and maybe they know of a fix. Thanks for all the help everyone
Hello there,
I really am stumped, and would really like some help! I've searched the forums, can't really find what I'm after, so apologies if this as already been asked/answered.
Basically, my G1 hangs a lot when it goes to sleep. I'm running Cyanogen 4.0.4 with an 8Gb Class 6 card - everything was fine when I was using the stock 2Gb card that came with the phone, but after having loads of trouble trying to transfer my apps, I decided to just wipe and start again. The card is Ext2 parted with a 293Mb size partition. I did have it as Ext3, but thought this might be the problem (since I didn't have any problems with Ext2 on my old card), and wiped and repartitioned as Ext2 but that wasn't the case and problems persisted. Occasionally the phone will hang when it is on, but mostly the hanging happens when I leave it alone for a while; the screen stays dark and nothing happens, and I have to take the battery out and restart the whole phone.
One thing to note is that when I did reinstall everything, MybackupPro often didn't like the card, and gave me 'I/O problems with card' or 'Cannot install app' mesaages until I rebooted and started again each time the messages came up. I had to reinstall my apps in 10 - 20 app chunks in the end, rebooting when errors came up, but eventually I got everything reinstalled.
I'm running Swapper (I know Cyanogen does something similar natively, but wasn't sure how it worked...someone please correct me if I shouldn't be using it), and Overclock Widget. Like I said. I never had a single problem before with my old card and these apps, so this all leads me to think it may be the card, but any advice would be much appreciated!

Hmm... sounds like the card to me. And the fact that you are using swapper on a possible defective card may very well be causing your system to hang. The system is relying on the sdcard as part of it's memory. So if the cards fails at any point, so will your phone. It'll be like pulling the RAM module out of your computer while your using it. Include a logcat of the phone crashing if you can and post it. Also reformat and check the partition for errors.
Thanks for your advice, I thought it may be the card too. Partitions seems fine...I used Partition Manager and it didn't throw up any problems.
As for Logcat, I did try and do that, but got a bit stuck trying to fiddle with my computer, and I don't think it's going to happen. I'm a bit of a newbie I'm afraid.
I don't mind getting a new card, but the only thing I'm concerned about is moving my apps...on this post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=553469 it looked pretty easy, but could you tell me if these commands are to be executed in the terminal on the handset? Does it copy the apps, because I imagined that if you fiddled with stuff that's in use (like moving an app from the Ext2) would cause a lot of FCs and possibly even hangs.
odd hang
I myself am getting a bit of a hang when waking the phone up, i have to hit the menu button several times, kinda reminds me of the coma issue that we had back on the old kernal. i didn't have a problem till i clean out my phone by wiping and reformating my card, it is not that big off a deal but it is just strange. oh and to the op, you do not need to run openclocker since cyanogen's rom has cpu scaling that does it already and if you have your partions in order as fat,ext,swap than it will auto use compchace

My phone did the exact same thing when I was using either Jac's Hero 1.3 or cyanogenmod 4.0.1. I tried everything and it wouldn't go away so I ended up switching to xrom.
Since cyan has been doing a lot of kernal tweaks lately do you think that it is possible that the coma issue has gotten reintroduce though, I mean both mine and the op is doing it, his is worse but if you remember that is what was happening to a lot before, mine never got to the point of pulling the battery but to the point of annoyance just like it used to
How is the xrom <that's jac's non hero build, right?> is it comparable to cyanogen's, I love cyan's performance but if this persits, I might find something else for awhile
I love it honestly. He just updated it to 1.4r3 and its is sweet, it has a custom theme and it looks really good. The performance is great and I don't even use a swap with it. I tried cyan again when 4.0.3 came out and only used it for 2 days before switching back to xrom. Personally I liked the icons and lockscreen of xrom 1.3r3 better then 1.4r3 but that is just my opinion, If you want to try 1.3r3 I can send it to you since it's not up anymore. Try 1.4r3 first though and see what you think because IMO it is the best rom out. Hero is nice but no matter what you get some lag and after a week or to it gets slower so I don't use it yet, I try the new builds but never stick with them.
Yeah I feel the same way but the hero builds too, nice to play with but nowhere near usable for me, I might just have to check out the xrom but I don't wanna give up loccy's browser, it is just friggin sweet and it works good for me because of the option of viewing just destop versions of sites since I get the men's health daily newsletter and whenever I would click on a link it would give me the moble version and not the article I would like to read, if loccy's brower works on the xrom, we might just have a winner
I haven't tried it yet so I'm not sure. Is it just a simple .apk to install or do I need to push it?
I just read the thread on the browser and it says it should work on xrom. It says to push it but I have just installed it like a normal apk before
Yea I am downloading it right now so I will let you know how it goes. Just so you know the browser on xrom doesn't have those zoom in/out buttons that pop up when you touch it, also it has multi touch just no double tap to zoom. I don't see any settings for turning off mobile pages though.
Well I am downloading the xrom right now so I will be flashing within the next half an hour or so, let me now if the browser works for you, by the way is compchache or swap automatic on it like cyan's or do I need to set it up myself, I perfer swapper, it just seems to work better for me
I think swapper is automatic but to be honest I never have used it for xrom because it is fast enough without it. The better browser works I just installed it normally, no pushing and I am using it right now with no problems, you have a pm.
If you like the notification bar icons in the first picture on the xrom thread they are from 1.3r3 because they changed in 1.4r3. If you want the older ones I can give you that rom amd it runs just as fast, only has a few differences from the newer one.
This xrom is nice, I am happy with the newest, oh and when I installed swapper and went in it was already set at 96mb and swappiness of 80 and I am on a fresh install and reformat so it must be automaticly set to then, explain why it is so smooth. Definitely comparable performance wise to cyanogen so I might have to stick with this for a while
I dont even have a linux-swap partition on my sd and I haven't had any problems with speed or lag.
Mine is silky smooth, better than I have had on any roms even the stock one
Hey guys,
I have the AT&T Tilt and actually, I've bought 4 of them from my other job. One of them I sold to one of my friends and unlocked it to T-Mobile. His phone is running Ultimate X2 rom and so is mine. Once I unlocked his phone to T-Mobile, a week later his space started running out, so he has to keep clearing storage, which he's apparently ok with. However, my problem is a bit more serious. I didn't think anything of it but my phone just 3 days ago started saying that I had critically low space, so I just removed some pictures, and viola! But today it completely ran out of space and now will not go past the initial loading screen. I can still get to Hard-SPL mode, so i guess I could just put a new rom on there, but I wanted to know if there's any way to extract these new numbers I got just yesterday.
Also, is this a known issue with WM phones and is it fixable? I tried searching and came up with nothing.
And just one more thing - what would be your personal recommendation for which rom to use? I'm looking for something that is the least laggy, but is still easy on the eyes. Going back and forth from txt msgs can really be a drag on this phone (or maybe just my experience w/ Ultimate X2).
Any help much appreciated!
I've never had this problem you mention after using many many roms. All devices can act differently though so maybe you should try another rom, as that one doesn't seem to agree with your phone.

Did you sync your phone with these new numbers to your PC? Because in that case when you sync again on the new rom you should get your outlook contacts and other phone information from the last sync, if you were able to set your sync this way.
I don't know if x2 had the 'deblogger' issues. google-xda it for plenty of help for resolving it.
If it won't boot I can't think of a way to get your new contacts out, sorry...
Good luck.
Has anyone been able to get this to work on a nexus?
Mine seems to close at different points when going through the menu's or startup screens.
People on other forums seem to have it working so I just wanted to hear from others or if they have done anything different to get it to work/?
Yeah, I got it to "work." I just installed it normally, and everything worked. Only problem is that it runs kinda slow, but I bought it anyways for when I upgrade to a tegra 2 phone (or something better?). The only issue I have is that it takes up so much space on my phone and I can't move it to the sd card. So I basically had to remove it. =\
I'm hoping they add move to SD card support soon!
Bummer. I was looking forward to this game.
it works on my gingerbread...yeah it's a bit slow, but i hope in gingerbread OTA and new 3d drivers
I redownloaded the data files and it works fine but it is a tiny bit slow.
