This may be nonsense but I'm beginning to get a suspicion about S2U2 potentially being the cause of data connectivity issues for me.
I'm hoping I'm wrong because it's such a great program and I've used it on my last couple of phones.
Basically when I had my Touch HD, I had to reboot it pretty much daily if I wanted my data connection to work, otherwise I would get connectivity problems, but they would always be solved by a reboot.
I never figured out why this was, even though it was mega annoying. In the end I installed a cab to do a scheduled reset each night and it helped quite a bit.
Since I got my HD2 it has behaved perfectly as far as data is concerned and has not had a single connection fail with use every day for emails & browsing, UNTIL I installed S2U2 yesterday late afternoon, then last night it failed to connect. Yes you've guessed it, a reboot solved it.
I know that's hardly conclusive and I'm hoping it's not the case as I love using this program as an unlock screen, but I was wondering if anyone else has had any problems like this?
I was wondering if it was somehow also linked to my carrier too. The reason for this is that my friend also had a Touch HD and used S2U2 and never had this problem but he uses a different phone company. He now also has the HD2, and has installed S2U2 again and is fine, but mine is acting up, so it seems weird that it happens to both my phones but neither of his....
I know I could remove it to see if the problem goes away but programs sometimes leave bits behind when you uninstall.
Cheers

I get problems either daily or bi-daily where I have to reboot my HD2 to get my data connection to work again, (its connected but doesn't work). Every time its solved by a reboot.
I dont have S2U2 installed. If you find the reason behind the issue let me know as I am about to start doing a search into it.
Hmmm, maybe it's just coincidence then. But why would it have worked perfectly up to that point though, that's the thing that makes me wonder.
Mine also appears to be fine in terms of still displaying the GPRS signal/sign, but trying to retrieve emails or open the browser etc gives an error. It's maddening, whatever causes it!
Same thing again this morning when I told the phone to get my emails - connection failed. Worked fine after a reboot.
I'll see what happens tomorrow. If it does it again then I'm going to uninstall S2U2 and see what happens from then onwards. If it doesn't fix it then I guess it'll be a hard reset on the cards....
Back to original HD2 screen lock from 2SUS
Dear all,
Can tell how to change back to original lock after installed disable the screen lock? I don't like 2SUS needed so long to slide...
Just uninstall it, then press your windows button and hit the lock softkey.
I've removed it myself tonight even though I'm a long term S2U2 fan.
Since installing it a few days ago I've had even worse problems with ghost unlocks than before.
Previously the only issue was accidentally cutting calls off, but with S2U2 in use (standard lock disabled) I had a text from a friend on Friday asking if I was drunk. Somehow, whilst locked in my pocket it unlocked and sent a gibberish sms!
Then today, it also somehow unlocked in my pocket and dialled my mum!
I'm just glad I wasn't playing Call of Duty when it happened or she would have just heard "Sh1t!!! You cheating f***!!! WTF??? You..... FFS!!!!" etc
But seriously - I love S2U2 from previous winmo phones but it's made my HD2 worse so I've uninstalled it tonight sadly.
Isn't there a working fix for these bastard hard buttons yet? I LOVE this phone but the bloody hard keys are ruining it.
Hi Cret,
Thank you so much for your response. I did remove 2SUS and selected the Screen Lock from pressing the Power buttom but it doesn't auto lock each time...
Can you tell what to do such change Registry or I need to restore the original setting?
Thank you, dude.

he wanted it back... not disable...
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 1
This should re-enable the lock...
Thank you very much!
I will try to see it works on my HD2.
Mine was the same ie the lock would not return.
I already had BSB tweaks installed which had a toggle for the lock though, so I just activated that.

Hi, did uninstalling S2U2 help on the connection failures?
Well, I only removed it last night but so far yes. I have not had to reboot the phone this morning and the data is working flawlessly.
Also - and this is a biggie! The battery life on the phone is MILES better without S2U2.
Normally the phone would be down to about 70% by lunchtime without even doing anything and it's still on 96% now - that's a massive improvement!
However, one thing has occurred to me as a possible cause of these issues - I've realised I was using a very old version of the program - v 1.5.
I think I'll try the latest one - 2.22 and have a look through the changelogs to see if there's anything mentioned in there along these lines.

Here's two fixes right away in the next version relating to battery use:
- fixed the v1.50 issue of occasionally high CPU usage during idle.
- save more power than the old version when the device is sleeping.
v1.6
- removed option "Power Save" as the power leak problem is found & fixed.
I can't really be arsed reading through the rest of it but it's obvious there have been power issues addressed by subsequent versions so I'll try the latest and see how it goes.
So I've noticed recently that whenever my phone reboots, it seems to lose all the settings I've set in certain apps (could be all of them, I've only noticed it in a couple). For example, with Weather Widgets - Donate, everytime my phone boots up I have to re-enter my area info and for the new calendar widget included in the Gumbo ROM, I have to re-configure the settings everytime too.
I'm using Gumbo 1.5c and I never had this problem before switching. When I do a wipe -> fresh install it doesn't seem to happen but I noticed it happening again as soon as I went into ADB and changed some stuff. At first I thought it was the memory killer settings but I haven't changed them from the default setting included in Gumbo and I'm still having the problem.
The only thing I did when I was in ADB was delete some system apps I don't use (off the top of my head, Sprint_Core.apk, Mail.apk, Weather.apk) and delete the /data/misc/lockscreen and /system/etc/lockscreen dirs. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
Posting here since I don't have enough of a count to post in Elegancia thread.
No matter how may times I change my screen timeout, it always reverts to 30 seconds. I've done it from the Setting menu, from third-party utilities... and it looks like it sticks, the new setting shows up... for a while. Later the same day, or the next day, it's back to 30 seconds.
Also, although enabled in Sync settings, my stock email app does not sync in the background - it only ever syncs when I open the app. True for both the Hotmail and Yahoo accounts I have configured. (The Gmail app is always up to date.)
If anyone has any pointers for troubleshooting and/or resolving these issues, much appreciated.
Many thanks to Steve of Elegancia and all those assisting him Fantastic ROM.
After my phone switched to DST this morning the Weather Widget is still displaying the old time. I'm removed the widget & re-added and same thing. re-booted and changed cities and still I get the wrong time.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Same here. I've tried changing time zones, setting time to manual, clearing weather app data, clearing cache from recovery, removing and re-adding the widget and multiple reboots. Still displays the wrong time. Maybe it's a problem on the server side. I'm running the latest beta and remember one of the updates created weather widget to show wrong location and temperature. Hope it fixes itself soon.

Same thing here.... I cleared data, it worked till I readded locationS.... ammy wanted me to do a fac reset and no backup lol
It is a issue on their end nothing we can do other than use a diffrent wiget
I was gonna ask for help here but I actually found the fix and it might work for other Huawei phones too. I'm still sharing because it might help others. First I thought because I had used phone Clone to import everything from my previous phone and it had messed with the settings and I would have to factory reset (clearing cache hadn't helped).
So the problem was: I use Do Not Disturbed mode set on Only priority interruptions. I noticed that my alarm didn't ring. The solution was just to go to the clock app settings:
Settings/apps and notifications/Apps/Clock/notifications and enabling Priority display.
