Very Sluggish/ Hanging TYTN 2

Hi,
I got a TYTN 2 in Singapore recently. It worked fine for a few days, but now it is very sluggish in its response and also hangs frequently.
Any Tips/ Tricks/ Advice anyone?
Also my GPS doesnt seem to work either. I tried a program called MapKing that came with the CD and some other stuff from sites. Nothing is able to detect the GPS, setting is at COM4, 57600
Thanks in advance

My Tilt is having the same problem: it wasn't sluggish, but was hanging a few times a week, so I went ahead and flashed the HTC ROM. Almost immediately, it seemed more sluggish than it had before, and still hangs a few times a week (sometimes I actually have to pop out the battery to even restart it).
I'm sure that's a very vague description, so I'd be happy to provide any further information that might help.
Thanks!

Hey, to reset, i never popped the battery, i just removed the sim card slot lock, and it would turn off completely. Dont know tho, might be dangerous. Would you tell me which rom are you using? Is it Helmi_Kaiser_1.57.00.02BigStorage_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe ? I am thinking of using this one now.

Mine encounter lag every now and then. especially evident when using opera to surf. Screen will just freeze and have to wait a few seconds before I can do anything.

I've never tried to reset by unlocking the sim card - can anyone confirm that that's a safe, easier way to reset? Either way, I'd rather not have to reset at all.
Anyway, I'm using the ROM with the filename: "RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.exe"
I don't know much about ROMs, and that's the only one I found easily in the forums. Maybe it's a bad ROM, which would explain performance poorer than that of the original Tilt ROM. Can anyone recommend a better ROM?

Fixed?
Just to catch up here:
I've been using dutty's ROMs for a few weeks, and the device is much more responsive. I still have occassional hangs, but I can usually soft reset - maybe once every week or two I get a hard hang that requires me to remove the battery.
Currently using: Dutty's NewBuild Rom N0.6 +NETCF 3.5 AT&T.zip
Awesome ROM!

i have the same hanging as described above ... screen doesn't react. effects typing on the keyboard also ... i hope this can be fixed by new roms or by some fix. I am trying to figure out what is causing this since it doesnt happen all the time. say when i am playing solitaire for an hour it runs great, when typing an email it gets bad again...
anyone had any similar experiences ?
update: going to try dutty's rom as suggested above will see how it goes
ok, so after a few days with dutty's rom no.6 my device seems fine with exactly the same programs installed. my guess is either it was caused due to using an at&t rom including the radio on a kaiser or some problem with the custel 2.0 rom (and probably a few others).
hope this helps someone ...

My Diamond Keeps Freezing - HELP!!!

First of all, thank you ALL for the immensely helpful tools you guys are posting and uploading. You people are awesome. Now for my problem: I bought the HTC Diamond a few days ago, tweaked it using your tools and all, but the phone just WON'T STOP FREEZING on me. I have to soft reset it all the time, and even THEN it freezes sometimes and I have to reset AGAIN! What the **** is going on? Is my phone screwed up, or is it a common problem with WM6? Aside from this problem I'm fairly happy with it. If someone here can help me solve this and make it work like it should I'd be more than just _fairly_ happy with the Diamond.

What tweaks did you use? I've heard that some performance tweaks makes the phone freeze alot, you might have to do a hard reset.

Help needed! All roms keep hard-resetting themselves after a few hours!

Hello everyone, I don't know if this is the right place for asking this, but I'm in quite a big problem.
I've had my HTC Diamond since December and I've flashed it to several different roms many times since then. Never had any problem at all.
But during the past two weeks my phone just started acting crazy. It would all of a sudden crash and even if I took out the battery and placed it in again, it wouldn't boot up. I'd have to wait until I got back home to flash the ROM again, so I could keep using the phone.
BUT the problem is that ever since then the ROM keeps hard-resetting itself every few hours. Sometimes it might last for a day or two without doing anything weird. But all of a sudden it might just crash, and when rebooting the phone would act as if it was the first time running the phone (you know, with the screen calibration, time settings and all... and then having to import all of my contacts and calendar again, not to mention any application).
This hard-reset also happens randomly when I turn the phone off and on again. Sometimes it loads up normally, sometimes it goes to factory settings again.
Now, I wouldn't be so worried if this wasn't happening WITH EVERY SINGLE ROM that I'm trying. Both Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5 roms. Even those that I've used in the past without any problem. They all hard-reset themselves at some point or crash and get unable to boot until I flash another ROM again.
I've also tried fully hard-resetting the phone myself -both the phone memory and the internal memory- and even flashing different Hard-SPLs and Radios.
It still goes on the same though.
Anyone has any suggestions?
Or is my phone dead forever now?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Have you tried to instal stock roms? If they work, install cooked rom with the same version as stock. Might help.

I have the same problem since a few days... Have you solved it yet?

I'm having extactly the same strange issues... Does anyone have any idea on why this is happening? I'm going out crazy!

This happens sometimes after you've installed numerous ROM's.
You'll need to use an app called 'Mtty' to sort out the problem, then flash ROM again and it should work fine.

Look on google/do some research before using to make sure you understand what it is mtty.exe is, and how to use it.

thank you for your quick answer cymru, but i resolved flashing a stock rom and then reflashing the cooked one ad suggested by kosherpig.
Bye!

every rom i install works great until...

about 12 hours of using one it crashes and reboots
when it does this i also lose all my data as if i just reflashed it
every rom i tried has done this, my hardspl is pretty old (1.23) but idk if that is the cause of it.
if anyone can help or point me in the direction i need to go it'd be appreciated

same here, only mine may last for a couple of days before it starts rebooting randomly. Sometimes all data is lost (contacs, shortcuts etc.) and its like as if I just installed a new rom, ans some times it retains it

strangely enough the last one i installed hasn't done it yet so i'm hoping it doesn't
[ROM|WWE|21893] Windows Mobile 6.5 Clean Basic ROM [12|4|2010] [SENSE 2.1|SENSE 2.5]
i used the sense 2.5 on this page and i haven't had a problem... yet lol
(i'd post the link but i'm new lol)

I have similar problem
my diamond works only some minutes or an hour, then the work with system is a bit slow and system freezes, then i tried soft reset, but diamond doesn`t boot and there is only boot image with rom version (sometimes boot normally, but only to a state which is after hard reset), then i have to make hard reset, and diamond boot normally. it makes with every rom, with sim or without sim card, with applications or without...after that hard reset works normaly, but after some minutes or an hour is work with system again a bit slowly and there is a same problem again and the story with hard reset is here again...actual rom is nataly 2.7. thx for help.

yeah lucky ive been using the one i posted for the past few days, no problems other than like minor graphic errors that go away, but nothing like system crash or hard resets so i hope this one works for me cuz i like it

my problem is solved
with mtty and now diamond works perfectly - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540290

Definitely - use MTTY to clean up the memory before you flash the ROM.
MTTY is tricky to use if you use Windows 7 but on XP is is very easy. Searching XDA will show you all you need to know.

I am having the same problem, I have done MTTY twice but still the same.

[Q] I'm finally asking for help

Ok, A few months ago I got an old(ish) Tilt. It was heavily used and I wanted to install a fresh operating system. I figured if I am going to flash it I might as well instal WM6.5 on it (it had 6). So far so good. I got HardSPL on it, flashed my ****, all good. My phone was working fine. My issue is in the fact that after a few hours though, the phone will slow down or die or something and I will restart it, and then it will not pass the splash screen. At first I figured I bricked it because I tried one to many ROMs and maybe one was bad. I left my phone alone only for a few months later be in a need of a phone so I searched all over these forums, googled my problems, and found out I can actually flash my phone without starting it by pressing the power and camera buttons. I started doing that, going through tens of ROMs but tey all seem to have the same problem. After a certain amount of time they will not boot up again. I unlocked my phone, I even tried cooking my own rom which failed. I am just lost. Why wont any of these ROMs last for more then a few hours?
The phone is am HTC Tilt, HTC Kaiser, It has been unlocked using the KaiserUnlocking utility, has HardSPL, and right now has WM6.1 on it because I needed it to unlock. I am not certain if 6.1 has these same problems as this will be the first time I have installed it. All I am wondering about is why wont these ROMs last after a few resets and a few hours of use. Is there some "anti-piracy" thing built in the kills them? I don't even know. Please if anyone knows anything and can help me out, all I want is a clean, vanilla if you will, phone that doesn't need to be constantly re-flashed. I need a working phone. Preferably WM6.5 but at this point I will settle for anything that isn't too unstable and slow.
