Q&A on Radio's - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

First off, terribly sorry of this has been covered but I've been afraid to ask for the last few weeks and this might be why I had to return one Tilt already lol.
I understand that Radio's have the ability to completely alter your experience as in Battery life and overall performance. I also understand that reception could play a huge difference as well.
I am wondering if there is anything else I am missing? When is it appropriate to switch to another Radio when using a custom rom? Where can you download Radios? I think I may have seen a link on Dutty's beta site
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

okay I just found a radio sticky... just ignore this thread - i'm sure I will find my answers there... hopefully

lol
lol, thats what you need to do, search before you post, search before you post. Its good to see that you found your answer though.

New WM6.1 Ringtones

I've noticed that some of new roms cooked with WM6.1 have newer/different ringtones like the ones in Laurentius26 rom. Can some one either point me in the right directions to obtain those sounds files/ringtones or can some one be so kind to upload them? I think this ringtones are head and shoulders above the standard ones in most wm6.1 roms.

This question is in the wrong forum. that being said, if you click the link in my signature there is a collection of ringtones i've collected from various sources, not wm6.1 but you might like some of them.

Well first i would suggest searching to make sure that the question hasn't been asked somewhere else in the forum already, but i think the question would be most appropriate in the off topic which is anything not related directly to the phones, or the general forum, since it isn't really a question specific to the kaiser.
Listen, It is not that big of a deal. Next time just try to search first. Other than that no worries whether it is in the right place or not. Some people are very anal but they get over it.

Does make you wonder why they even bother to have separate forums for different topics if it doesn't matter where you post. I know most new members post in the wrong forums cause they just don't know any better, it's obviously a lot better to let them know when they post in the wrong place and then help them with their problem anyway than to just leave them browsing in ignorance. That's how people learn. of course you are entitled to your opinion and i to mine, so is suppose we will agree to disagree on this one.
Not a Noob
If you look at my join date, I've got you by a year! I'm more of a lurker than a poster. It didn't seem to fit any one category and since I only know of the roms that I used that have those ringtones to be in this forum, I thought maybe, just maybe this would be the best place to start and if not someone would have pointed me in the right direction. But no harm no foul.

Like i've said before, guess we'll have to disagree. this forum is for rom development, and as such questions related to more general items not specific to a particular rom should be posted in the "general forum" if you wanted to get the ringtones from a particular rom you could always post within that thread and ask someone to copy them from that rom and share them as it would be pretty easy. i personally use my own collection of ringtones i've created or downloaded over the years, currently the collection is well over 100 tones so i never even notice if a rom has different ringtones. My appologies for implying you were a noob, i was writing this from my phone and didn't see you have 70+ postings already. i myself have even been reminded about posting in the wrong forum on occasion. i'm definitely not trying to offend anyone, just trying to do a little part to help keep the forum a little more structured i guess.

HELP, Cant Hear Anything!!!

This started yesterday using dutty's newest hybrid rom on the radio it comes with, i believe its 1.64.14.06, yeah thats it. This radio and rom has worked fine for me with great 3g coverage and everything, rom just seemed a little slower than his apr 09 32mpp rom. I then changed the radio to the niki 1.58.11.07 since that one works the best for me. After flashing, the first phone call i made or recieved worked fine on my jawbone bluetooth. Any call after the first one, completely nothing. Phone shows im connected, seconds tick away on phone showing im connected, person on other end cant hear anything as well as me. Ive tried calling and receiving calls from numerous numbers and people with same problem. I also tried turning off bluetooth and trying the speakerphone or regular ear piece on phone and still same problem. If i soft reset the phone then its back to the start, the first call either made or recieved works fine even on blutooth headset, speaker phone, or ear speaker on front of phone, then every call either made or recieved after the first nothing! I then flashed back to the stock 1.64.14.06 radio with no more problems. I then got tired of the newest hybrid rom since its slower then the previous apr 09 32mpp rom and flashed back to the apr 09 32mpp rom with stock radio 1.64.14.06. After making many calls and recieving many calls since this last flash, the problem just started again now on the apr 09 32mpp rom with the stock 1.64.14.06 radio! The same exact symptoms as before! Everything else works fine like gps, texting, e-mail, I just cant use the main feature of the cell phone which is to TALK to someone! Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking about flashing back to the stock att rom then flashing back to the apr 09 32mpp rom to see if that helps. Like i said before, the apr 09 32mpp rom has worked for me perfect for over 2 weeks until the newest hybrid came out and even the hybrid worked fine for the first few days. No programs are running in the background, no damage done to the phone, never dropped it, phone battery over 75 percent, cant figure out whats wrong? Please, if anyone can help???
Im gonna try to flash back to the niki radio 1.58.11.07 since i used that radio the most on this apr 09 32mpp rom. Still can't figure out what would cause this to happen to my phone for no reason? I havent downloaded any new apps or anything. Just stopped working!
just a thought but shouldnt you have posted this in the relative rom thread instead of starting a new thread but if i were you and liked the radio i had id reflash the same one try it out for a while if it happens again then try a new radio

Of course i would post this in dutty's rom thread but have you seen his thread? Grows over 1,000 posts a day. The same time im typing up my problem, 10 other problems already got posted and so on. Thats why i posted this as a new thread, not to take up space but to get my problem answered and some help. Yes i did flash back to the niki rom just now and made over 7 calls and recieved a few just phone on my phone but that doesn't mean this problem won't happen in a day or in an hour. Like i stated in the first post, the roms (newest hybrid and apr 09 rom) worked perfect the first few days or even weeks and then BOOM, this problem hits for ? reason. Just looking to see if anyone on here can figure out why this happened so if it does happen again in the future for me or anyone else on this forum they will know how to fix it. Like i said before, i havent damaged my phone, no new cabs or programs added, soft reset my phone and doesn't fix the problem, even flashing to a new rom altogether didnt fix the problem and flashing to a new radio only fixes the problem temporarly.

Wow for your convenience and avoiding 1000 posts thread, you create a new one. What a good idea. I should do the same thing since I'm not English speaker and it's really difficult for me to read in English.
No wonder why you are senior member.
Thanks for the idea.
Hi,
I understand that this is a little bit confusing but, actually, with the same build there are "2" versions the one that is labeled with the 1.65.14.06 radio and the one labeled with 1.64.08.21.
So, Radio 1.65.14.06 & 1.65.17.10 are just compatable with roms labelled 1.65.14.06. this means if you flash another different radio, you'll get the bugs you described...
On the other side, all the other 6.1 radios should work with the second version, labeled with 1.64.08.21. once again, if you flash an att radio (1.65.14.06 or 1.65.17.10) you'll get the bugs you described...
NOTE: RADIO 1.65.17.10 IS NOT RECOMENDED - IT WILL UNABLE THE RE-FLASH PROCESS WITH ANY OTHER RADIO, UNLESS YOU'RE SECURITY UNLOCKED
cheers
Honestly, im more new to the thread and Id have to say.. The most annoying thing and the thing I dont quite understand is how many whiners there on on "posting new threads" as if posting is something sacred that only the best people should be able to do. Now I understand the defense "oh well people post more and more of the same questions.. blah blah" but who the heck is actually making you read these threads? Honestly, id call posting new threads troll bait, because its only the trolls that rush to whine about it. Ive personally never posted a thread, and I never would in this forum. To be realistic, I come on this site almost everyday and see the same crap. Its just loaded with peoples roms on the first page of the forums. Im just saying, give some of these guys a break. Im sure there will be trolls that come in and complain against my post... but oh well. Im sure others have noticed it too

okay let me help u understand why senior members and moderators get ticked when people post new threads:
a) as the name of the site states it is targeted towards developers or people with ability to understand 2+2. developers put there personal time trying to create something better for us without any monetary gain.
b) posting new threads about the same issue pushes real issues down or completely buries them. xda gets close to 100000 hits a day .. imagine if all those people created new threads .. what would happen to threads w/ real issues??
c) it is easier to post and quiker to get a response under a rom thread that u r having problem with. i post under rom that i have issues with and always get an answer unless the problem is my own stupidity which i manage to fix.
d) its part of xda's tos to post under threads that r relevant to ur query.. don't like that? good bye.
e) people post new threads cuz they don't wana read. believe me i know .. but reading is the best thing so read the wiki it can answer all questions like this one.
f) people respond better when they see u r following rules ... if a cop pulled u over and u gav him **** u would probably get in more trouble compared to if u apologized for what u did wrong. same goes here post a new problem and everyone will try to help; post a question that has been answered 10 thousand times u r bound to piss people off.
and i don't think i need say more.
Always someone that has to post back on things subject to common sense which either A) makes that person feel smarter then they actually are or B) feel like without there knowledge, all would be lost. Without your details, I said that main outline of what someone is going to end up whining about, but then again... what made you put so much time and effort into reading my message? for that matter, you even came on this subject and replied to nothing the OP needed and instead, just trolled my message. Obviously you came in this thread to complain, whine, or whatever you call it, noticed my message, and felt my message was a better target.. so here goes. (oh, and I never asked why "senior members" or "moderators" get ticked. It was more people like you "members" lol)
A) Who are you to define peoples questions into interpretations like (2+2)? Maybe because they dont know what YOU know, that doesnt make them stupid. Its people like you who dont realize that people always have to be taught by someone, and im sure you learned all your stuff by reading through 1000s of pages of threads and not posting any yourself... just realize, no ones born with the knowledge.
B) As I said in my previous message, I see mostly ROMS on the first page everytime I come on the site. Not just that, if no one wants to respond to the thread, doesnt it just get lost from there? but usually its the trolls that keep new threads going isnt it? and once again, who are you to define whats a real issue? obvious when people post, they are having issues. For you to say they are worthless is for you to say that your issues are just more important.
C) Ok thats your preference, and your OPINION states that you will get an answer quicker when posting under a rom thread, but honestly... its a matter of personal experience. Theres no evidence that would show posting under an existing thread gets your questions answered quicker, as im sure some people might have done both but have had better experience with posting a new thread.
D) Obviously thats understandable. But to what degree? moderators would "decide" which threads are relevant to what query? Im sure even moderators understand that people are going to post because not everyone has hours to spend looking certain things up. While you can look at two different threads and in your opinion they could be the same, the variations of the two threads could show quite a difference in the solution thats needed for a problem... and just because someone doesnt like someone, is that really how it should be? goodbye?
E) Hah how do YOU know why people are posting? have you done a survey? and dont tell me its common sense. While sometimes it can be because of laziness of reading, it can also be the fact... someone couldnt find what they are looking for. wow imagine someone posting because of that. Maybe the wiki does answer the question, then again, maybe some people looked and didnt know how to interpret the answer to the question so needed to get more advice or opinions.
F) Using an example of a situation thats totally irrelevant to that actual discussion is quite useless IMO. Thats not true all the time.. maybe it means a cop would look around or search you to try to find more evidence to put you up... but id hardly interpret that into "more trouble" then just kissing the cops butt. You used an analogy of a subject thats basically "stand up for yourself and say what you mean, or dont" and that analogy goes both ways. Some situations help you by shutting up, while others dont.
I dont think I need to say more either. While im sure a detailed reply will probably attract more trolls... this was merely just a single reply based on "thesires" direct interpretations, opinions, and outlooks. While I myself believe in many cases new threads shouldnt be started and just post in existing threads, I still remember there are billions of people out there... and a little confusion or misinterpretation is understandable. Theres many situations and solutions ive seen or found..
1) The person who spends his time trolling the forum and finding these type of threads, then disrespectfully and aggressively insults the OP and complains.
2) The kind person who directs the OP to the right place.
3) The person who doesnt care and doesnt want to hear it so doesnt read the thread and watches how it quickly sinks to the bottom because it doesnt get many replies.
My solution is always if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say it at all. If you dont want this thread to stay at the top... dont respond to it.
One last thing, these are my opinions and are that only. They are not regarded by myself, or is it assumed that whats posted above reflects any views of others. It doesnt show anything factual, its just merely an opinion stated. So plz dont spend time arguing that

I figured that since you spent so much time editing, checking grammar and punctuation that you might want to know that you forgot the period on the very last sentence.
lol the fact that I didnt edit any grammer at all would just be giving me a compliment. So thanks. I actually edited it to add in the line at the bottom, to tell people that it was opinion based, and not expressing any views of others. That way I wouldnt offend too many people. But geez was that post you made even neccessary? Ill leave the period off on this one too

About as necessary as this one. BTW, you misspelled grammar. Anyway, your welcome. Your previous post was quite intelligently written.
Calm down u too, this isnt why i created this thread. Ive been on this site for some time now and have flashed countless roms both on my 8525 and tilt and never had a weird problem like this. That is why i created this thread which i also dont do very often. I guess if it makes everyone happy i could copy and post my problem in the 2 rom threads and see if someone can answer it. Thought this would be easier yes for everyone but i guess not. Admin go ahead and delete this thread i started since it must be taking up too much valuable space on this forum and people are tired of seeing it instead of helping me, thank you.

I totally understand what ur saying but my problem is even with the stock radio that comes with the rom, 1.65.14.06. I rom worked perfect for about a week with the original radio then this problem started so i changed radios and still didnt help.
I've had this issue too. Less so after disabling Voice command, but it happened again yesterday. The bad this is that you don't realize its gone mute until you try to dial out. Ringtones and all notifications are gone too.
I've had it happen with and without bluetooth and with multiple radios.
there are always recommended actions to take after flashing a rom. You must hard reset after flashing. Weird stuff does happen when you don't hard reset. This could be due to the rom, too acting really funny. You guys probably put it through scenarios where it gets unstable. Theres a good chance these problems are fixed in the newer roms.
I seriously wasnt even concentrated on spelling or "grammar", but I did find it pretty funny out of all the words ive typed, you nailed me on the "grammar" one. Admitantly ive been spelling it that way for a long time, so it made me laugh when I seen your post. Thanks (seriously)

Info overload.. but which ROM do I use?

Sorry.. truly sorry for asking such a dumb question. I have found and will use the NEWB flashing guide, but even there it doesn't suggest which ROM to use.
Jade? Maybe?
I have a ATT branded Tilt, latest crappy ATT 6.1 build and am ready for all of the improvements.
Since there are so many different ROMs of different flavors, it honestly is hard to tell which one to use in general.
Can someone make a good suggestion? I even saw off one of the linked site for the ROM images, one for the new touch HD?
Hoping for ease of use, speed, and better radio reception.
Thanks.. and again sorry for the newbie question

AT&T Fuze - ROM Upgrade recommended?

I recently purchased an AT&T Fuze (off the internet, not from AT&T) and noticed the phone came with the following ROM:
Rom 1.90.707.1 WWE
Rom Date 08/01/08
Radio 1.02.25.19
Protocol Ver. 52.33.25.170
The ROM seems dated to me, is there an upgrade that people can recommend I install (I'm fairly new so not familiar to what ROMs are available)? Any recommended for "tweaks" are appriciated.
Also interesting is that when I turn on the phone, under the Touch logo, it says "For testing, not for resale". And while the phone is branded ATT, I see no ATT references when the phone is in use. Should I be concerned with this?
Thanks
Hello
Very nicely.....Read the Wiki.....there is alot of info there for you to read...different rom's that have been cooked....

Can we have different backgrounds for each ?
How to do that Please
bit off topic, huh?
I assume you mean the background image in touch FLO, as touch pro is a piece of hardware with many different software programs that can run on it, many of which have background images.
I don't use touch flo, but would offer the advice of not asking a new question in someone elses thread unless it is related.
Post a new topic, or better yet, search for the answer first, I'm sure a question like that has been answered many times before.

Fastest ROM?

My apologies if this has already been asked, but wading thru the search results didn't help me find the answer.
I'm currently running NotATreoFan's v5 Final ROM with Radio 1.65.16.25. I've just noticed it seems to be VERY slow. Text messages take forever (not due to my slow typing skills, but waiting for the "keyboard buffer" to catch up).
I've been considering flashing to a new ROM, but with so many choices out there, I wasn't sure of which one would be recommended.
Are there any FAST ROMs? Might someone know the fastest? Perhaps the AT&T ROM without the bloatware?
Once again, I apologize if this is repetitious.
Thanks in advance,
DaleyKD
How many of theese posts will be here?
YOU HAVE TO TEST BY YOURSELF; CAUSE EVERYONE HAD ANOTHER A ROM HE LIKES MOST.......
MODS: Please delete/close
So where you were searching, you didn't think to read the Kasier section Announcement that says "Please Read This?"
That's ok, I'll help you out, just like JeckyllHavok sad, "Fast" is relative to everyone's opinion and no one can really say which will be fast for you.
Also, if you look Scotchua has a thread about Keyboard buffer.
Thread Closed.
