I re-configured everything, did not install the cookie home tab deal like I did before. The battery is either not talking to the phone properly now, or the battery life is amazing...because it's still on 100%...I wanted to install a 1% battery driver and taskbar, but the one I used on MightyRom with a slightly older build of windows, and sense 2.1, does not work properly with this rom, so I need to dig around and find one that will work with this build and this version of 2.5...but otherwise I'm happy so far with 8.5.

Hi, the battery will say 100% between 91% and 100% on this rom. You can install tp2 1% battery cab or install battery monitor. it will show battery levels at 100%, but the true battery level will show as the CBI Value. Here's a screenshot. So you don't technically need the 1% battery drivers to see the actual percentage. You can always just use battery monitor app.

Thanks rileyd5.

Has anyone found an MMS fix that works on sprint with 8.5? I tried the "sprint arcsoft" and "elephant" fix I found in this thread for an older version, and it didn't work. When I tried to send a friend a picture just now, it timed out after a while and told me unable to send message.

Works fine for me. I open up the pics/video program and click on the picture I want. Then click the menu button and choose the MMS option.....That should be all there is to it.

Just sent and received a pic from my phone, using the elephant fix of course.....

eman, did you install sprint arcsoft and then they elephant fix, or vice versa, or only elephant?

I installed the arcsoft file that is found in the elephant fix thread. Then installed the fix file, then rebooted......

Make sure the file you are tryting to send is not over the max size as well....Also, make sure you are sending the pic from your pic/video program and not your messaging tab....

I am also using th Elephant fix and for me, I get a message failed but then get the MMS picture a few minutes later. Strange.

Flashed to R8.5 tonite. BUt have a slight problem. When i use power button to turn off the screen . it does not come back on. No matter what. The phone is still ON. I called my cell number & then display comes back on.


Any idea wht the problem could be.

this is the best ROM I've ever installed on my TP2! thanks deck.

one little issue: Facebook Album does shows folders but it does not show the pictures. the R4 fix does not fix the issue.
(note: this was not an issue with R7.)

I have used the tsowen taskbar from MightyRoms posted taskbar 6.5 cab successfully and ive also used about 4 or 5 taskbars from djcleo. just google djcleo windows mobile 6.5 taskbars.and i also use the %1 battery driver from the MightyRom thread/post as well.and ive never had any trouble running any of these taskbars on any WM 6.5 with sense 2.5 roms. but it can only be the 6.5 roms and never the 6.5.X roms.Mighty also has a cab u can download thats supposed to make the taskbars function properly.but ive never had to use it. right now im using decks 21890 R7 or R8 rom.the rom right before this release,and anyway ive used those taskbars on many different 6.5 roms with no problems and im currently using djcleo WM HTC icon custom taskbar with the %1 battry driver now and it looks and works great.doesnt slow nething down.it fuctions as good as or better than the stock all white plain,ugly taskbar.not to mention that i also use Maxmanilla 3.0,custom transparent top curtain,transparent bottom slider,custom mettallic blue slider icons,transparent clock,and custom Maxmanilla icons.and stiil very fast and stable.great rom.downloading the todays R3 rom now.cant wait to flash it.
