Any lucky 2.16 users

What do I mean by that?

Luck as in:

"Oh hey I'm having none of the problems you guys are having & I'm doing the same thing."

I doubt it but I'd feel I'd better ask now, since I'm getting my Mogul today.

2.16 screwed my phone royally. It was the straw that broke the camels back. Following that ROM upgrade I unlocked the phone and have now hard reset and tried at least three custom roms (one wm5 rom.... Sampsons) and am now using No2Chems custom with some success. I have started telling people to stay away from the Mogul and even (shock horror) said the iWord the other day..... help. I am going to the dark side.

Well I don't use BT much lately, so issues with the directional pad are non-existant (obviously)..plus I don't ever even use the directional pad, so big frekin deal.

My phone was experiencing the slowdowns and whatnot and I'd have to reboot the darn thing multiple times a day - until I went into the phone properties and shut off roaming. The phone's locked to Sprint only and since then I haven't rebooted (this was a few weeks ago if I'm not mistaken).

Definately looking forward to a new update, but I still prefer 2.16 to the 2.09 overall, as long as you turn off roaming.

brian. Yea that was my exact experience with 2.16 up until colonel pushed me into investigating the bluetooth issues. Bluetooth active on the phone definately upsets the power mangement balance.

Problem is, until i started messing w/ bluetooth to try and "resolve" it for this issue, i was not a bluetooth user.

Now i'm a bluetooth addict and just GOTTA have it....

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Have a great turkey day.

2.16 has been working well with BT after changing the registry disable auto suspend key so that the Mogul doesn't power down while BT is on. I live in a large metropolitan area so I typically never switch out of EV coverage. I use both a BT headset and a combined BT handsfree with BT FM transmitter. I only use the d-pad on a limited basis but it has been working fine.

Of course, it is a Windows OS, therefore resetting, rebooting and ctrl-alt-del are all very familiar activities. lol

Good to know, I wont bank my hopes on that.
But same here, EVDO is full blast where I am.

If you can get me that registry key, post it here or PM it.

Here's the long version (try pages 8 & 9 for in depth info): http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=10366

Reg key: HKLM/software/microsoft/bluetooth/sys Change the value from 1 to 0, wait a few minutes for reg changes to take effect, then soft reset.

My first mogul, ordered day of release met its demise at a Sprint repair center after they confirmed they could not fix the broken vibrate function. Good news is i got a brand new one on the spot.
Day one i loaded the 2.16 as i had tried to fix my old one with it and it did not work and had kept it on my computer.. Soft reset before the Sprint customize ran and then installed what sprint stuff i wanted to see.

I am running the poorlyduck sprint colored cube, sprint home plug, HTC Customizable Home Screen (can pick the number and order and which buttons, home, quickdial, launcher, weather, profile, and music) and HTC Action Screen (sprint colored icons), MemMaid, Battery Tweaks, I am running about 19 megs free with all of this. No bluetooth issues but if i do i now have the reg edit for this.

Thanks DT

The worse thing about not having 2.16 was the awesome battery life on it. I could use my phone all day and it would only drop to 60%
