Lock screen has a little glitch

Using MR FF "stock," no progs or cabs installed, although I have changed some things in the settings. I expected the lock screen to look like Purian's examples on the first page of this thread, although perhaps those are shots of the lock screen for OF or SE.

My lock screen looks similar, with the taskbar at top, then the sliding lock icon below that; however, the "bar" at the bottom that has the time and date is not at the very bottom of the screen. Instead, there is another bar, about the same height, with the same calendar icon as my Sense calendar tab. Oddly, the calendar icon on the lock screen says "30" on it, even though today is the 31st. The sense tab has "31" on it.

Repeatable -- does it every time. Soft reset did not fix it. Same issue whether using regular lock or lock with pin. I did set a different background for my home screen as opposed to my lock screen. Once I figure out how to undo that, I will try that to see if that fixes it.

Did I find a bug (forgive me for even thinking it, MM :notworthy:), or do I chalk it up to 6.5.x video glitches?

ps: Don't know how to get a screen shot of the lock screen, sorry. :dontknow:

Mordy, I just flashed for the first time (went very smoothly), and the info in your posts #3 and #4 was very helpful. Thank you. Started ppcgeeks reading about MR last December; read thru the 1500+ pages in the prior thread, then read all of them here. I figured I couldn't flash until I had read every post, and I couldn't catch up until now that it has slowed down a little!

Since the experience is fresh in my mind, I have a few suggestions for your FAQ (post #3) that would help newbies like me (assuming helping newbies is of interest ;) ).

First, how about defining some terms in your FAQ: "clear storage," "hard reset," and "bootloader"? You have some excellent info on why & when to do them, but you don't say HOW to do them. For instance, "clear storage is done by settings/all settings/system/memory/clear storage (in 6.1) or settings/all settings/system/clear storage (in 6.5.x)." Maybe hard reset and bootloader should be in post #4 where you discuss specific providers if it is different for each provider.

I was able to find how to do these by searching thru this forum, and it probably is in a general TP2 forum sticky somewhere, but it would be nice to have in the FAQ here.

How about step-by-step instructions of how to flash if we are using Task 29, which it seems is becoming the recommended method? Eg, "Replace instructions 2-5 in post #1 with the following: 2. Download the Task29 and Mighty ROM of your choice to your computer -- these are exe files. 3. Make sure everything you want to save from your phone is backed up or on the SD card. 4. Follow instructions to run Task29 here. 5. Put phone into bootloader mode (see above), and connect it to your computer with the USB connection. Then run the exe file for Mighty ROM and follow the instructions."

It was a little confusing, because you start Task29 with activesync, but the flash starts with bootloader, not activesync.

Also, as I said over in the Task29 thread, you should warn us that some of the instructions given by the RUU cannot be done. For instance, there is no readme file. Also, since we just ran Task29, we cannot make an activesync/wmdc connection. But that's ok, since we started in the bootloader.

By the way, do we still clear storage after the flash if did Task29?

Another idea for the FAQ: an explanation for how to flash using the SD card.

I would ask Curtis if this info should be posted into the wiki, but I never see him around any more. :(

Thanked your post for reading the entire thread... That's pretty impressive and def worth the props!

A couple things...

Not eveyone runs Task29 prior to flashing, so they can still start the flash from activeSync/WMDC. That's why there's not specific directions on AS/WMDC vs. Bootloader vs. Task29... everyone has their own preferences, thus they can read the threads on those topics separately. Same thing with SD flashing.

Plus then Mordy would have to try and keep all of that info up to date with new info on each one of those....

And I still Clear Storage after the flash even if I dis Task29. Only takes a couple extra minutes, and could prevent som eserious headaches and potential HRs later on.

Thanks and hope that helps!

No Wifi router or Bluetooth PAN

I could use some help. I just loaded the latest version from mightyrom.com. The Wifi router seems to start up properly, but I can't see it from any of my notebooks. Since that didn't work I tried Bluetooth PAN, but when I opened Internet Sharing only the USB connection option is available. Are there any fixes for these problems?

Thanks

The phone should AUTO-provision for your carrier, if like me and a few other people it didnt work, do the following:

Start Menu -> Tools (folder) -> then click "Provision Device" (has a MR icon last time i checked), chose your carrier and hit commit, then reset when it asks you to, and your done!

As for the end key, I think thats a Verizon specific action, i know its possible to change it to do that, try a search on this thread, im sure it has been discussed before and a cab or reg entry provided to change it (dont like it myself) it might even be somewhere on the front page or a link leading from the front page (known as page1)

Just a couple of random questions. Can I buy or make a cable for the tv out? If so what is the output cable (rca,svideo,hdmi)? What about an audio out cable? RCA out or similiar so I can just plug into my stereo in the backyard.
Thanks

you can buy a tv out cable either from htc (ACT100 i believe) or from an aftermarket oem like on ebay (just search touch pro 2 av cable). as far as audio out, you can buy a cable (3.5mm to red and white plugs) from best buy or other electronics stores and it will work.
