How to edit Atom Exec rom for Atom? - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading

Is it possible to edit the Atom Exec rom to fix the screen flicker problem in standard Atom?
I have two Atoms, one I bought December last year and currently has the Exec rom this device does not have the LCD flicker after battery removed or flattened, why?
What has changed in the more recent Atoms that causes this problem? Im guessing it can only be hardware or in particular the LCD's.

Come on, there must be some brainiack who can modify the rom or point me in the right direction. I might assume the overclocked xscale processor is to blame as well as power management? what if we could create a profile for the processor speed as the battery power lowers that could also be manually slowed when the need arises to remove the battery, could that profile be carried through boot up of device? could it somehow be applied as a reg tweak? Twice now my Atom screen has gone black and been unable to restart wthout removing the battery, then I've had to go through the whole procedure of flashing back then reflashing to Exec rom.

Periodic sluggishness

Hi,
I am sure there is someone here who uses a Dopod U1000 that has been upgraded to WM6. Are you experiencing any periodic sluggishness in your unit?
The sluggishness is very obvious in the rather slow refresh rate of the screen. Typing using using the hardware keyboard is a pain, as the letters come out seconds after you have pressed the keys.
Using SK Tools CPU Usage utility, I can see that gwes.exe is having high CPU utilization that borders from 70 - 75%
The frustrating thing is that there is no fixed pattern to the occurrence - one moment my unit is running well and is zippy in performance, the next it will start to slow down and this will persist across soft and even hard reset!
U bet
I have both u1000 and htc advantage x7500
my 7500 works like a piece of cake but u1000 sucks a bit
where as the sound quality of x7500 is better but u1000 has a louder volume level

i have same situation. i am not sure why it happens but looks related some softwre incompatibility. what do you have installed?
Do you have BatteryStatus installed? I had it installed and noticed extended periods of 100% CPU utilization. Only a soft reset fixed it. I uninstalled BatteryStatus and it performs much better.
Are you running weatherpanel from marsware? The authenication server has been down, thus causing the pgm to search internet often for the server....
No I do not have BatteryStatus nor Weatherpanel installed on my unit. So far, the only third party software I have installed are:
1. SK Tools
2. Pocket Informant 2007
3. TCPMP 0.71
4. PocketXpdf
5. CE Star
6. MapKing R12
7. Magic Button
Anyway I have sent my unit to the local HTC Care centre and showed them that the lag will still be there even after a hard reset. They acknowledged there could be a problem with my unit and has kept it for further diagnosis. So I don't think this is software related.

turn on atom w/ just shaking

Hi,
May I be bold to ask, is it possible to wake up or turn on our beloved atoms(not exec, flames, etc not if it matters) with just a simple gesture or movement of our atom unit? this maybe a stupid question, as i'm aware that our atom don't have any hardware to support it, but how about using the camera to detect the movement?
That's an accelerometer feature and as you said, the Atom doesn't have this. Since the camera is "idle" when the phone is asleep, this idea would probably be hard (still a good one though).

Hermes black lcd

Hi, i received HTC TYTN from customer. On startup lcd will display, then suddenly goes black. Phone starts completely. I upgraded rom, but still the same. On boot mode lcd allso display. Only goes black on startup. Is this a
hardware or software problem?
Thanks
Try a a HR and see what happens or try to downgrade to another rom. If problem persists it may be hardware but if it is displaying on startup it sounds more likely software. If you have other software installed you may need to eliminate problem by installing one by one until you find the problem app.
Cheers...

HELP - TP acting funny with stock and custom rom

Hy
I have quite a big problem with my TP.
I run NRGZ latest rom with my UC settings and S2U2, and after a week with no problems at all my pone has become self-aware
That means that he, by himself (phone is on desk and no body is touching it) starts to opening camera (and taking pictures) starts to opening comm manager, starts messing with my (his) volume settings (increase, decrease ring volume).
First I thought that maybe some of setting got fuzzy (but for 6 days it worked perfectly fine) so on reflash my TP to stock rom and flash it again with custom rom (|RAPH|ROM|6.5|WWE| ★ EnergyROM 'Warhawk' (SYS 23016) ★ | Built Aug 11 | w Manila 2.1!).
With latest flash I disabled UC and didn’t install any other app but issues are still here: randomly opens comm manager, camera, volume settings.
I have to mention that I really look out on my phone (in my country it costs 1000$ in retail) so it didn’t fell, took a bath or anything like that.
My phone is still in warranty and I will flash to stock rom, radio and SPL but before that I liked to know what the cause is.
I had the same problem. After installing NRG's ROM, my phone began to whack out just like yours after a few days. Ultimately, it started getting really hot, and the battery was no longer able to charge when the phone was on - it would discharge down to zero when plugged in and could only charge with the phone off. Going back to stock didn't solve the problem, and I ended up having to get the phone replaced. I have no idea if it was related to NRG's ROM or just a coincidence as I've used NRG's ROMs with no problem before.
Ghost?
Maybe NRG's ROM is so cool that unseen want to use it too
Seriously, flash an official ROM and then flash back to NRG's ROM. Some unexplained behaviour has been attributed to NAND corruption which the an official ROM flash corrects (by reformatting in the process). I had a different weird issues and were fixed when i installed an official ROM and then NRGs ROM.

already did that and no difference
could it be HW issue???
Me too - flashing to stock made no difference. Some kind of permanent hardware damage was done to it (and not from dropping or from water or anything obvious). Maybe the cooked ROM cooked the processor or something.
Hmm, do you think you could get it replaced by reflashing the stock goodies back to your carrier? Or if you really looking for debugging the issue, try sending a pm to cmonex of hardspl fame..
I'm having the same type of problem with my fuze. The volume just zeroes itself out; you can actually see the slider visually go down the slide scale, past vibrate to silence. If you adjust the volume up using the side volume up button, but the slider will just go right back down. It doesn't seem to matter what ROM I use. This is the only problem with the phone. But when it starts this volume adjusting, no other programs can run as the phone stays in the volume adjust screen. Sometimes it works for days without problem and then the problem will not go away, even after a hard reset. Any help??? I'm just a noob that knows very little programming; just enough to get in trouble.

same here
anybody?????
Mine has the scroll wheel operating out of its own. So when using Opera it zooms in and out all the time.

did you (or anybody affected with this or similar issue) find out how to reproduce this "bug" because with my luck when i go to repair center everything will work just fine
Mine seems to act up worse as the battery starts to get just a bit low on juice. The phone is the most stable when I leave it plugged into my computer using the USB cable.
My phone would only charge with the phone off. So I recharged then followed the directions on www.blownfuze.com (or maybe .org - can't remember) to get everything back into shape for a warranty return. I actually took it into the warranty center in person and they tested it while I waited. Obviously it was all fine because they handed me a brand new phone.

Odd S3 Screen issue

Ok, so I know this may not be the right place to ask this but you guys are my last hope. Attached I have some pictures of an issue with my S3's screen. These lines you can see only appear at low brightness's, and will only be caused by a dark item on screen. The messed up colors and then phone shutting of and rebooting is only caused by intensive apps. When this happens the battery can drain up to 90%.
Here is a list of things I have done:
Restart.
Used Dev opts to limit background processes
Factory reset
Replaced screen (Digitizer and all)
Replaced battery
So far I have found out these things.
Problems only occur on low brightness settings.
Problems only occur when running off battery
Problems only occur when under heavy GPU load.
(Due to new member outside links do not work so please replace the %'s with a /)

Any thought or ideas would be very much appreciated.
OS has been kept and factory standard since purchase
*Edit* ~ also have replaced battery, however issue still remains.
