OK...There's a "Performance" icon. If that's it, when I tap on it to launch, nothing happens. What's supposed to happen?

When you tap it the program should open and look like this

I get no such display. like I said, when I tap on "Performance" absolutely nothing happens. Any ideas what could be going on? By the way, thanks for taking the time to screen shot what I'm supposed to be seeing.

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
BTW, when I uninstall HTC Performance, the performance Icon is still in the Systems folder. I don't see any program in the the system's folder or any other icon that says "HTC Performance."

Hmm. Maybe you got a bad cab. Try this one Here.

romeroom 09-28-2008 04:16 AM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
PDAPhoneJunkie, tried the cab you suggested and same results. Maybe I'm looking for the wrong program on screen. Can you send me a screenshot of the HTC Performance icon I'm supposed to click on to get it runing? Thanks.

Can anyone recomend another FREE overclocking utility? I used XCPUScaler and was spoiled by the improved performance. I don't want to sound cheap, but money is tight and if I can safe $20 by getting a free application to tweak my Apache's CPU speed, I'll do it.

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Well then forget about overclocking. Cause your batterey is more than likley gonna go down the drain. Upgrade to WM6/WM6.1 you will love it!

romeroom 10-03-2008 01:30 AM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
I tried one of the trialware overclocking programs (XCPUScaler, I think) and the battery did well.

I'd like t obe able to get HTC Performance working, however. Any other ideas?

PDAPhoneJunkie 10-03-2008 11:02 AM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Yep, flash with a kitchen and add the HTC Performance. That's what I do...

romeroom 10-03-2008 01:15 PM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
PDAPhoneJunkie Thanks for your continued support. I have a feeling that HTC Performance only works with WM 6. I like the idea of reflashing my XV6700. However,

1. I'll be getting my second refurb in the mail from VZN in three weeks, so I don't know now many more I'll need to get before I get a stable WM5 one.

2. If I flash my phone with a WM 6.1 kitchen, can I flash it back to a WM 5 in case I have to return it? (I suspect the answer lerks somewhere in PPCGeeks)

3. I tried a while back to flash it, but something went wrong in the process and I aborted part way through. I'm very new at the flashing stuff.

4. Can you give me some very simple steps on what I need and how to flash the thing? I wont bother you any more.

Thanks a meg.

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Meg, no worrys about bothering me. I always will provide support to the best of my ability.

1. Why is it taking three weeks to get a replacment? They usally do two day shipping. Free of charge.

2. Yes you can flash back, no need to though, I never have sent Verizon a replacment.

3. Probably because USB COnnections were still on.

4. Watch my videos on how to flash. Very simple but enough to get you where you desire, link in my signature.

Enjoy!

What I meant was, I got my first refurb 3 weeks ago. Started self-rehardsetting. In fact, it did it for the VZN guy at the store. then he ordered me another "new one".

2. Yes you can flash back, no need to though, I never have sent Verizon a replacment.

I got the refurb an hour ago, so now I have two 6700 at home. Before I send the old one back, I'd like to try flashing it to make sure I can do it. Can you tell me how to flash it back to WM 5? Thanks again.

The links seem to be broken. I'm I right on that?

Spend the money and buy Wizcode's Pocket Hack. Not only can you set the cpu speed and/or dynamic speed, but you can override cpu speed on specific apps. I set it to run at max speed when Opera is in the foreground. It helps alot! And it responds quickly to cpu speed changes.

Use the link in jabu's signature to get Old VZW ROM.

Hey guys, just tried the ROM flashing bit for the first time. What a blast!!! Piece of cake, for the most part.

Thanks for all the help and ecouragement.

Love it. I'm using the ROM called Apache_LennySh_19213 and it's lightning fast compared to Apache_WM6.1_20748. However, I'd like to be able to include some other apps that I need. Most important that I need are the MS Office readers (W,E,PP).

I just posted a question (which I probably should have asked you first): How do I customize a ROM to include Office Word, Excel, PowerPoint applications? If you can help...Great.

Also...Is there an advantage to your IPhone interface vs IFonz (cost is not part of the question/answer).

PDAPhoneJunkie 10-08-2008 03:34 PM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Glad to hear that.

You need to select those apps in the kitchen.

My theme is a skin for WA/WAD. iFonz is an app. There are a lot of things different about mine. iFonz has smaller icons and I personally don't care for the fonts it has. I use cleartype for mine. Mine is customizable and you can change out where the button goes to, I think iFonz might do that too. You might want to watch my demo as well as the ones for iFonz.

Since iFonz is an app, for me, it is too unstable and can be closed too easy. My skin won't shut and the taskbar is the same in all windows, I'm not sure but I think the iFonz one will change in other apps to the stock.

It's all about your choice and preffrence. For me though I just think iFonz is a little plain and the calendar icon has some text that looks off.

Anyways. Both themes are great. Just a matter of personal taste, as I say with eveything.

I keep getting a "page load error" when I click on your Iphone graphics under your signature. How do I get to it. Also given that yours is a skin, does it mean it uses up less resources that an application like Ifonz?

Hi, well of all days the webhost is down :( I tried to get to their forum and it's offline too. I can get it to you via e-mail if you'd like. It uses WA/WAD. But I have found that even with those two programs running it didn't slow down my phone like iFonz did when I was testing that. I think it's because iFonz is in flash.

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
PDAPhoneJunkie, looking at your video demo at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkeyH...EBF07C&index=0 your phone is very fast and snappy. Even with the recent tweaks I've made, it's no where near as fast. Can you tell me what you've done to make your so fast? No rush on this...take your time.

By the way, since you've been so helpful, I'm inclined to buy your IPhone theme...Just need to know how to get it.

You've got me with the WA/WAD stuff. I know those are applications, but where do I get them? Do they come packaged with your theme?

PDAPhoneJunkie 10-09-2008 01:52 PM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Rome, you need to get the serial codes for WA/WAD at lakeridgesoftware.com I give you a cab for WA2 since he no longer oferrs that though.

Thanks for the complement. I just overclock to 624 and use WM6 rom I made using the kitchen.

I've been playing with IFonz, and talk about unstable...It worked better with WM5, but screw it, I'm not going back to that.

Now, let me get straight what I need to do to use your skin. Do I have to buy WA and WAD? Then buy your skin? Thanks again.

I have HTC Performance set to run at full speed (624mz) at all times...No dynamic stuff. However, when I use another application to read CPU speed (like TCPMP), it reads 420mz. However, when I try one of the other overclocking utilities, and recheck the CPU speed with TCPMP it reads 420mhz. Is there a trick to getting HTC Performance to work the way it should? Thanks.

jabu 11-07-2008 12:43 PM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Unless you have a version of HTC Performance that is different from the one in the Kitchen, you can't use it to set the CPU to 624 MHz w/o dynamic. Un-clicking the dynamic check box turns the software off. When it is checked it will dynamically overclock to 520 or 624 MHz. If it is off it will run at the rated CPU speed of 420 MHz.

Thanks, Jabu. That was probably the problem. I'll give it a try.

Try Pocket Hack Master from Wizcode. I use it to force CPU speed through the roof while running Opera.

That sucks, PHM is great! Send them an email and tell them to fix it.

Note: or maybe I will, I'm starting to shop around for a 6800 myself....

weedahoe 11-07-2008 03:42 PM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
It has to do with the different processor the 68 uses. And I dont think it is going to get resolved any time soon. As long as the 68 has been out and no one has managed to OC it leads me to believe it isnt going to happen.

jabu 11-07-2008 03:48 PM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Meh, I'll either OC it or break it trying! lol

PDAPhoneJunkie 11-07-2008 04:57 PM

Re: How to HTC Performance software
 
Yep, I am very disapointed that the 6800 can't be OC'd. It runs better than my 6700 did stock but not better after my 6700 was OC'd. Anyhow, I think that since the Mogul is getting old and people are moving on to Touch Pro or Diamond, it just made more of a reaso not to spend time. It also doesn't look like the Mogul will have as much life as the Apache has...
