Problem, invisible lock screen, start menu, and other graphics when programs open - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ive been plagued with this bug ever since i goit the phone, and no matter what rom ive tried this still surfaces. At first i thought it was buggy wroms, but even after task29 i still get it.
Ive managed to track it down, to poor memory management i believe. Because if i close all open programs. The bugs stop.
Basicaly what happens, is certain things become invisible. It mainly happens to the lock screen and the start menu. When i wake the phone up, im presented with no lockscreen but instead whatever was open at the time of going to sleep. But the phone is actually locked. So i still have to slide to unlcok.
This also happens with the start menu, no icons but the same screen i was in before.
I also noticed that images in the messenging program are miossing aswell, and im left with just outlines.
The confusing thing is, as it is not consistant with what programs are open. Sometimes just when opera is open, sometimes i can have several.
Maybe i have a memory leak somewhere.
Ive tried many roms, maxsense, cht, standar, gtx, same bug. its not the roms. I dont install any extra mods. hardly any proigrams extra installed.
Is it maybe the 576mb memory patch? thats my only thought. when i had g1, there was a patch for gaining extra ram which was reserved for video. Is this the same case for the hd2?
while im here, ive also had programs complain of not enough ram, when task manager says there is 100mb free of ram. not reported correctly? or just poor memory management.
If i close all open programs, i get my lock screen back, the start menu works, and no missing icons in messaging
I hate windows mobile... should have waited for the desire

Looks like androidcould be taking over. No one have any suggestions?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

I never saw something like this on my or my girl's HD2.
I would say, flash everything back to stock and try again.
If it's still like this, send your phone in for repair.

i hope its not a repair job, as that could have been done under warranty when i first got the mobile on contract 3 months ago. if it was to go for repair, id have to do it under insurance, as i had also dropped it in the toillete a few months ago (dried out)
but this problem has been there since before that.
damn
Ill need to get toa windows machine at some point. as my pc is solely linux, so cant task29. the last rom i loaded i did task29.

i installed a new rom. coukdbt task 29 cause no acces to a windows machine. lockscreen now works perfect. its not once became invisble even with lots of programs open.
however i still get complaints of no memory when opening images sometimes when just opera is open..vstrange. with no programs open pictures can be ipened

Update on progresss. Even the VBN showed very bugy behavious in regards to images, and loading of the camera ap. sometimes complaining of not enough memory even with just opera opening. So ive got access to a windows machine. went back to stock, removed hspl. So my phone is as it would be coming from htc. it doesnt have a t mobile branded rom.
everything works perfect as far as i can tell, ive not been able to reproduce the bugs. no matter how many programs i have open, images open fine. the whole device just seems alot more responsive.
So now im going to flash a custom rom and see what happens. But it looks like, the problem is solved so far.
Here is what i did
Performed a task29
updated with stock rom
used hspl3 to remove hspl
device bootup and so far so good.
Id recomend trying going complelty back to stock if you keep getting odd behaviour.

Help with Memory Issues...

Is their a way to see what applications are starting up and running in memory when you power on your phone, and also see what's running when you are using your phone and eating up your memory and stoping them from starting up? I"m having a problem with my memory getting eaten up and the, "Running Program List" is showing that nothing is running. As I use the phone the memory gets even lower even though nothing is showing up as running in Task Manager. I keep having running out of memory errors. When I turn off and on my phone I only have about 12MB of program memory free. If I use the phone for a little bit it gets down to 9MB or so even after I end any tasks that are running. It's becoming a real big issue. I would also like to keep ActiveSync for automatically starting up everytime I turn on the phone. Thanks for the help and time.
wow 12 on startup? Looks to me, you should first flash to a new ROM, take for example- dCd's 3.2.6 which gives roughly 25 MB on startup..
You can use MemMaid to help you see whats running on startup and you can also disable them through MemMaid. Another cool feature it has is the Registry Tweaks, Optimize it for Memory and you'll have a nice amount of RAM on startup as well
Also, Titan's been known to have memory leaks all the time, use programs like Oxios Hibernate to reclaim stale RAM, soft reset on a daily basis and you should be ok
He's already running DCD3.2.6 according to his signature.
I'd suggest posting everything you have installed along with what Today plug-ins you have running and maybe someone can help you out.
A hard reset should put you back to a blank slate if you're willing to go that far to solve your problem...

Are you running MS Voice Command by any chance?? That program is one of the worst memory hogs I have ever seen & also has a bad memory leak so the longer it's running the worse it gets.
~John
Quick Menu is an awesome, small, free program that that shows you in the start menu which programs are running. You can also set Quick Menu to "totally close" the program when click "X" or "ok". I love this program.
I already have 3.2.6. Is there any free programs that will free up the memory? I've spent so much money on software for my phone and it's getting really expensive. I couldn't figure out where memory tweaks where to optimize for memory... I stopped a few programs from starting up and that helped just a little bit. They were the voice software that came with the kitchen and something called TaskFacade.
I'm also have a big problem with the stylus. It won't stay in the hole anymore. The second I put it in it falls out. Am I going to have to replace my whole phone? Thanks..

hm, I had the same problem with the stylus and I slipped the extra one that came with it and it stayed in place. But if that doesn't work- then it really is the phone's molding that was messed up..what you can do is put a piece of electric tape around the stylus and hope that the tape would be big enough to hold it back in place.
As for the free program, its called Oxios Memory, here's the link..I use it so much, I assigned it to one of my buttons, generally it'll clear up any stale RAM and should if anything give you back several percent- here's the link:
http://www.oxios.com/memory/
As for MemMaid, just go to "Jump to" and you'll see Tweaks or something along those lines, btw Apota, check your PM

What ROM are you running? Yes, the Titan does have a memory leak problem..as do most HTC products, the only reason we, Titan users, feel this leak so often is because we only have 64 MB of it and well..64 MB of RAM really isn't much.
What other software do you have installed on your Titan? And what do you have running at all times?
I have quite a number of programs installed...but after Oxios on startup, I have roughly 23 MB of RAM- only because I've installed some nifty programs that I really like
thanks for the quick response noobiville is a dark and cold place
ROM?
as in stock rom with mr1 update?
a simple leak explains a lot though my phone is loadeed with apps
currently i'm usin:
CLAUNCH-I have a lot of shrtcuts on my today
WIRESPEED is installed on my SECOND TODAY SCREEN I only have word mobile shortcuts on this screen
BATTI, GOOGLE TODAY SEARCH BAR, HTC (audio manager, audio boost, equalizer)
I have other prgrams but they shoudnt be part off my "activate on power up" list and are only plug-ins and shortcuts for my CLAUNCH ( I have maybe 40)
too many short-cuts and plug-ins....possible culprit?
WISH LIST:
MANILLA 2d. do I have the memory to run it?
all white theme, tsk and dailer...no lines no bars jus words and icons

Well, consider flashing to dCd's 3.2.6 ROM, it has roughly 25 MB of RAM on startup, its a stripped down version of WM 6.1, if you don't like it, well you can flash back to the one you have. Of course, the only major hassle doing that is losing all the data on your phone.
Having too many programs installed is a problem as well, consider removing some programs if you don't really use it often. Like Google Search bar? Why not just turn hit the Internet explorer button, save Google as a favorite and search that way? Its roughly the same. I never used 2 Today screens, as I mainly use my phone for professional or personal use..so I never found a use for something like that, so I don't know if that's a memory hog, but does sound like one..someone should clarify this.
As for M2D with a white theme etc, it replaces your entire today screen, whether the 2nd Today screen will work, I don't know. But in general, expect M2D to take about 8-10% more of your RAM. I've used it before and for what it does, its..between worth it and not worth the 10%. It does contain a very finger friendly use, but keep in mind, it still doesn't go landscape (at least not with MBarvian's mod) and similar apps can do what it does, only it doesn't look as nice.
Try to keep your programs to a minimum- I have 13 apps on my phone, but most are for cleaning RAM or closing programs down. On startup, I am on 52% (I installed a custom dialer, boosting the RAM usage to 2MB higher, w/o it I have roughly 49%). Here's what I have:
AOL Instant Messenger (TM) 2.0
Dinarsoft MemMaid
MBarvian OpalPhone Canvas- the dialer I spoke about- its great!
Microsoft Live Search
Oxios Memory
Spb Diary
Spb Pocket Plus
Spb Weather (since it can be integrated into the Diary)
Sprint Picture Mail
Sprint TV
nueUSB to PC- allows the phone to be read as a flash drive instead of going through ActiveSync (pretty useful)
Xda-Team Task Manager
Yahoo! Go
I still have 139.49 MB free on the device and after a day's use, I have roughly 13 MB of RAM. Remember to also soft-reset everyday to reclaim the RAM you lost
memory issues
thanx for the info its puts things in perspectiv
the SECOND TODAY/WIRESPEED combo is so that I may access my current projcts in mobile word files immediately (i'm a music producer and I must get ideas down immediately)
my google bar is what I use most it makes my 40 google searches a day so much more convenient
I think my memory leak is linked to my IE...my memory doesn't start dissapearing till I have activated it
-IEcache too large?
-optimun size for cache?
I plan on using either opera or even skyfire if my RAM permits
I will try the dialer and I need nuestorage as well..so thanx
on to cookin...I have no idea what the process is like. I have insurance and I also have 2 xv6800 not in use that I can expirement on. I don't mind the reset if I come out with btter phone
I AM DUE FOR A HARD RESET JUST WAITIN TO SEE IF I'LL BE COOKIN OR NOT
read somewhere I should revert back to stock ROM b4 cooking....true?
and i've given up on animated interfaces as efficiency is most important to me...not it being cool lookin
thanx for illuminating noobiville for me..I been wandering in the dark too long
JokeZony0u:
Did you cook dcd rom without dialer then ran File name: MBarvianOpalPhoneCanvas.cab File size: 4.24 MB?
cooking
my knowledge of cooking is not to a point where i'm ready to go for it jus yet.
I am willing to expirement with my back-up unit tho
any screenshots of the dailer I just finding the cab
can I install the dailer on my already fully functionin device o should there be no dailr in my phone when I install
THANX FOR OXIOS HIBERNATE
since I have been watchin my IE I realize my prob is prolly there
I shall continue my research on cooking
Here are screenshots. http://mbarvian.freehostia.com/2008...de-applications-cab-and-oem-package-included/
I installed on top of original titan dialer and it seems to work. It looks nice. I did not get much free ram. I will probably go back to original because I want the DIAL button on screen.

Hey, I couldn't help but notice that your looking for manilla2d. I personally love it and have the titan. And yes memory can be a problem with the titan, so having m2d cooked in has been awesome. I dont' know if you have seen it but scrosler (sp) has made a ROM with dcd 3.2.6 (best kitchen imho) and added touchflo m2d to the mix. Its on this forum right below ur thread.
It is very cool in that you get to choose the majority of the apps that go with it, as he cooks them into the ROM as cabs you run, and its ready for ANY carrier. His fourth ROM os it is running nice on my titan and looks so sweet plus oxio hibernate is already cooked in to the rom too. I use IE to go to facebook all the time, and when i'm done i close it, have oxio set to a hardware button, run it and i'm back to at least 18mb again (with m2d running!!)

wow that's pretty sweet!
@ Flagmax: I didn't cook it into the ROM mainly because I don't really have time lately to be cookin in the kitchen, haha. Instead I just ran the CAB file and installed it.
@ heatd1: Hm..it could be a possibility that its IE that's killing your RAM. Whether its the cache size or so..I'm not quite sure..it could be a reason. A good thing to do though is, close your IE (not "minimizing" it)when you're done with it. Try using MemMaid and "Optimizing it" to see if it makes a difference on your RAM upon startup. There is a free trial before you need to purchase it- PM ME and let me know if need help with this.
As for cooking, if you're afraid of messing up the device because of a cookin' gone wrong and you want to claim insurance, you MUST flash back to the stock ROMs offered by your carrier. There have been stories of insurance companies not willing to give another device because of custom ROMs. So before you send your phone back, make sure its in a stock ROM.
The dialer on the other hand, is simply visually appealing to me. It technically has no functionality that is "needed". The slide to answer or slide to ignore is pretty neat and I like how it gives a little vibrate when it connects. On top of that, I like how it gives an option to send the caller a text message saying "I'm busy at the moment, please call me again later" (or something along those lines). I used to have Spb Phone Suite to do something like that, but now that I have this dialer, I removed it.
thanx
i'm not too worried about that too much...u can fry a phne without a kitchen trust me.. I have done it more than once.
my concerns are making sure my device is functional 24/7 I can't afford for, say, txt msging or my oulook not to work for more than 6-7 hours because I have had an incident it will cost me the lil money I make in the last days of Bush-a-nomics
have a backup phone so if gets ugly I will switch. or can use it for trial runs
my other concern is speed and functionability
don't need pretty interfaces I really just want all white screens nor nav bars no today lines no words...just icons for my today phone andevery other screen (theme gen won't do this or my favorite app RC MOD won't either)
claunch gives me the option of jus puttin icons directly onn my today
MEMMAID I have used this program often
what is the difference between the optimization for "memory" and "speed" if my phone gets slo because it doesn't have enough RAM memory
there so much inf on cooking what are the "must read before proceeding"s
I have read more threads than I wanna admit but I really need the step by step of it
from what I gather following the instructions to the letter is everything
obviously I can get long winded..sorry
i'm so anxious to leave noobiville
and you've been such a big help
did I say thanx for OXIOS?
Haha, well you're very welcome for Oxios. Giving a helping hand to a fellow xda fan is always great.
I've found from my experiences that optimizing for Memory over Speed actually starts the phone off with more RAM. You should try both and see which one works best for you.
You don't necessarily need to customize a ROM. If you find a ROM that fits your needs, than by all means just use it w/o the customizations. Its always best to just do that first before you start cooking up a custom ROM.
As to not having the bars, there's an application called nueNoBar, which will effectively remove the bottom bar of your Today screen but keeping the functionality of the softkey assignments. This app along with several other apps (that you might find handy) can be found here:
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/page/Pocket-PC.aspx
As for having an "icon" on your today screen, consider the program: Spb Pocket Plus. It has the ability to simply "right click" on a file and "Send it to the Today Screen", effectively leaving a shortcut on the Today screen under one of its tabs. Along with that, it has the ability to let u scroll around IE like the iPhone does with finger flicking (this also applies to other places like File Explorer etc..) and also lets you open up multiple tabs in Internet Explorer. Aside from those functions, it also has a "Safe Mode" in case you ever screw up your phone and need to uninstall something when your phone crashes. All this- PLUS it adds a button mapper functionality to your phone, allowing you to map specific apps to the hardware of the phone. This program isn't free, but its a suggestion that you might find helpful. Here's the link:
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/pocketplus/screenshots.html?en
Once again, you're very welcome for anything, and if anything..you can simply continue posting here. I check xda pretty often (as you may have noticed)
thanx

PLZ ADVISE, freezing dcd 3.2.6

can anyone please give me boy kind of suggestionas to why my device constantly freezes? even after a fresh flash and not installing any other programs the phone is SUPER slow and takes minutes to open even the simplist windows like messaging then eventually completely freezes. using dcds 3.2.6 thank you if can help at all.
any more info? what programs are you installing, when is it freezing, etc.
and wrong thread. should be under titan.
like i said in first post, not installing any programs, just a fresh, clean flash with 0 extras.

if its acting like that on directly after flashing without any added OEM's, then it is most definitely not dcd's work. try hard resetting.
I'm having similar issues now...ever since the time changed my phone has been acting very odd...i havent hard reset in about 2 months but its been constantly freezing bad, takes about 20 minutes just to enter my text messages and after each reset i keep getting the same txts marked as unread...another thing i notice is that my htchome won't update no more, say if i reset my phone at 10:10pm the clock wont change! my taskbar clock however reads the right time, for example it says its 10:42pm right now way up top, however on my today screen it htchome still says its 10:10pm???!?!wtf? weathers not working and it says i have 12 unread emails, but i don't think it has synced since my phone started freezing up and acting up a few days ago, i try to manually sync my mail and nothing...i was hoping dcd would come out with version 3.3.x or something by the time i wrote this so i can cook a newer rom and see if it rids my problems but i guess not yet...or ever...

[Q] Help! stable Leo needed!

Hi all - first post on xda - please be gentle ;-)
Can anyone suggest what may be the most stable setup on the HD2? the constant freezing is starting to make the phone unusable for me as I use it for work and before I move to something else I thought I'd ask some advice on a better setup.
I have had WM machines (pocket PC) for a long while mainly Ipaq and my last 4150 worked for years without a hitch - couple of screen taps and any info I needed was there quickly mainly excel spread sheets e-mails and schedule, the thing never missed a beat in years. The HD2 seemed the ideal phone replacement.
I have not gone mad with the phone it is pretty stock with a couple of usable mods (CHT and editor etc) every day or so, maybe twice a day I press the on button to bring up the lock screen and it freezes - always when I need it most - it freezes in a particular way ie I can see the taskbar at the top, MENU and PHONE on the bottom (which "react" when pressed but do not bring up the function) and blank screen in between - it needs a soft reset - I have installed the endkey long press which works but this always happens when I need the information quickly and waiting for it to reboot is not quick enough
I would dearly miss co0kies home tab and the couple of mods but if a standard ROM is the best so be it (was going to try the vodafone 1.72 ROM) - or is there a real stripped down ROM that is simple and stable removing all the baggage on the standard ROM. I've never done it but I'm not averse to having a go at cooking a ROM if it will get me what I need
I use all the "business" type functions - dont need twitter/facebook/footprints etc would really use the documents Tab
ROM 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE
Radio 2.06.51.07
Manila 2.5.19211619.0
Co0kies home tab 1.8.5
CHT editor 1.8.5.1
Resco Registry add in
Resco explorer
Skype
SPB Backup
Avian waves BattlineSvc
Microsoft .NET CF 3.5
Windows marketplace
Each time it locks up I'm getting fed up of friends/colleagues swiping their Iphones at me going "look! mine doesn't do that"
I like the HD2 I'd like to be able to say "but yours doesn't do all this" with all the extra capabilities - instead I seem to be always rebooting - waiting for sense to launch
I don't want to lose the HD2 and its capabilities but If I cant get it to be a bit more stable the Desire is looking tempting or even (wash my mouth out with soap) an Iphone?
Any thoughts or suggestions would be really appreciated
My hd2 became unstable when i had cookies home tab, its been solid as a rock since I uninstalled it, give it a go, I don't miss it anyway.
oh, and if they want proof, my friend has had the same locking up issues on 6 replacement iphones. it crawls to a halt then refuses to react, so he has to wait until the battery goes flat as he can't reset it...
You might want to try moving up to the 1.72 wwe rom and try that with and without cht, perhaps even try rolling back to an older version of cht.
I used to suffer the lockscreen freezing on the stock 1.66 rom.
I cant remember if it persisted after moving to the 1.72 im afraid, I dont think it did though.....
Does it only freeze when using the cht lockscreens?
HardSPL your phone and flash-
http://www.vbnfiles.com/xda/g_lewarne/CleanEx/CleanEX%20Core655%203.50.7z
CHT works fine along with anything else I have thrown at the ROM!
Stable as a rock and is an excellent dive board into Android as well.
For extra "cut down" disable sense and run Resco today plug-in as your home screen.
I used to flash numerous times a week, but, I haven't changed a thing since 16th Aug and that's a record.
what version of CHT are you using as i had to revert back to v1.7 due to the latest one giving me problems...i would suggest to upgrade your Rom to 1.72 start fresh again and install all necessary apps you need one by one that way you can analyse if certain apps are conflicting causing the frezzing problem that you have ....if that doesnt work try a custom rom.

On the iPhone tell him to hold the sleep button + the home button for a few seconds... That should do the trick.
i had the exactly same issue on my second hd2 and had my phone sent in (also vibracall was sounding abnormally), i should get it back this week. i hope CHT works then, my first hd2 never had problems like that....
Thanks indeed for the info I did have a sneaky suspicion that CHT may be a problem, I will try the stock 1.72 and maybe try a few things one at a time see if it helps thanks again
ive had problkems that sound like that, the lockscreen disapears and you can see the screen you have behind, except you still have to slide to unluck . with the vbn rom my lockscreen problems dispaeared complelty. it still seemed to suffer from memory issues but for the most part it was stable.
i hardly use windows mobile anymore, as android is way more fun, and it never complains about not having anough memory
I would suggest couple of things:
- make sure, that all the additional icons (if any) and wallpapers used are in phone memory, i.e. not on sd card.
- using bsb tweaks You can disable wm 6.5 lockscreen and give s2u2 a try

[Q] HELP! I'm so very confused....

LOST?!?! Okay, perhaps I'm missing something here.
Attempting my first rom upgrade on an att pure i have had around for a while, not using it so no sd card in it..
so while trying to install hardspl...
device on (no sd card, will i need one in?)
usb-pc active sync on and synced
device is showing touchflo3d
run the hardspl program (when i hit "about button" is says ver. 5.09, is this the 1.83 version?)
Okay so device on, at home screen. Run the HSPL program.
and I get...
Fatal Error: Please make sure the device is synced, try again after syncing device.. etc.
Error2: try installing hpcmonex.net/roms/enablerapinew.cab
Thats where I'm at.
HELP?!
Never done a flash or rom upgrade/custom rom flash.
No idea what I'm doing.
Read for hours online here at xda.
Lost.
Hm never had that before..
Have you tried another USB cable to do the hardspl install?
Maybe its just broken or something.
J-r0en
dwnlded and installed cab on phone. worked, hspl into phone now reads
spl-5.09.c-sspl on multi color screen.
didnt run anything immediately, stayed on multicolor screen, so i soft reset.
added custom rom, to sd card base memory. trying again.
okay here is exactly where I stand.
got hard spl to work 100% proper. now it reads as it did above, 1.83 etc.. etc..
back into phone, touchflo 3d running, dwnlded energy rom.
So are you are sorted now then and do not require any assistance?
Somewhat, now I'm very very confused about what exactly what I did to get it to work, loaded EnergyRom: Max Sense.
which is super laggy and slow, and unreliable.
perhaps, suggestions on clean fast stable rom?
Doesn't need to be incredibly flashy, or anything just some basic features, but a couple of eye candy assortments, like fullscreen weather animations.
Is there a rom thats very low in memory consumption, that would be a good platform for SPB mobile shell, and can I get full screen weather on SPB?
I'm mostly doing this so my g/f won't be jealous of my droid... (Aria w/ 2.1, non rooted, could use help there too but this isn't the place)
so if I had to list questions off..
1.FAST non laggy
2.Stable
3.Some eye candy, nothing too flashy
4.Full screen weather
5.good base for SPB
6.SPB full screen animated weather?

Hi there!
Just a quick check, Did you remember to do a hard reset after you had flashed your ROM!? A hard reset is required in order to make everything work like it should.
Go to:start/settings/system/wipe device.
Please perform a hard reset and tell us if it works better now!

Or even quicker - while device is switched off, press both up and down Volume keys, then power on the device while still holding them and follow the on screen prompts.

[Q] screen size wrong in apps after rooting

I rooted my EVO 3d. I used the HTC unlock and TWP. I can load roms at will. I have now tried 3 different ones (viper, Miui, Synergy) and keep getting the same problem. When i open an app the screen size is all wrong. Usually the right side of the screen can be overlapped or a black bar (about half an inch) is there. I guess i could live with the smaller screen, but it also throws the touch off. If i go to click a button in the app, i have to aim above or beside where i really want to aim.
At first i thought it was the first rom i tried, but i reloaded it. no luck. So now I've tried all sorts of versions of Factory resets, wiping cache, wiping dalvik and installed 2 more roms. All of them give me the same result.
At this point I have to assume there's a setting off? or something still on the SDcard that is holding some setting? Or is this a known issue with EVO 3d rooting? I find that hard to believe or no one would be rooting as it pretty much makes apps unusable. Normal things like Facebook I think are okay, but any app I buy and load seems off.
When the apps start up, if there's a video clip or a logo splash screen, i'm fine. Once it goes into the actual app, I lose my size.
At this point I'm about to unroot and go back to Sprint factory setup, but I like the Miui Rom I have on there now and would prefer to keep it if i can fix my problem.
Sorry if this is a doulbe post, i've spent days googling this, trying to fix it myself, going through every app on my phone looking for a setting doing this and at this point I need someone's expert advice.
Thanks!
all apps or just one in particular? because some apps still arent formatted for qHD displays
Every one I've tested so far. Ones that were fine prior to rooting.
Try downloading Spareparts and uncheck compatibility mode.
