Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

i havent seen any other posts about this sort of problem so i wonder if its just me or if people are tolerating the slowdown and instability just because they NEED to be on a custom rom..

When i had my TP1 I mainly used mighty roms because of the speed stability and great battery life. Ive had my TP2 for about 3weeks and and i generally like the stock rom, but since mighty's roms have pretty much always been faster and more battery efficient than stock i decided to give it a try.

i tried the release from late November and it actually was slower than stock (especially in the first minute or so after boot) and it would often freeze.. This was with no additional software added except the neupower control panel so that i can monitor battery use.

i went back to stock..I then tried the Dec 6 Rom with hopes that it would be more stable and faster... unfortunately it has the same problem for me..

soo..

AM I THE ONLY ONE??

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

People go to custom ROMs since they are 6.5. There are some other features you get such as the weather on the home screen which you wouldn't get on 6.1.

Then they are taking everything from a phone that is better than the TP2 and putting it on the TP2. So it will be slower but the advantages make up for it.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

Try different roms.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

I find MightRom 12.06.09 to be blazing fast compared to the stock junk. I then proceed to install way too much crap and slow it down myself. I don't blame the Rom, I blame me.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

MM 12/6 was the best wm6.5 rom I've tried. Better than stock for sure.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

hmm.. maybe its my phone then... cause MM 12/06 slows my phone down without adding anything to it..

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

personally i dont even remember how stock was,but 6.5 gives that no look back experience.all of mightys rom (since HSPL) have been stable for me.12/6 gives me the feel of not needing to flash again.so make sure your hard resetting after every flash.

there is always going to be someone out there that can never be satisfied. Mike your roms rock.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

word!!

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

I am afraid that i agree with the OP. i flashed about 4 custom roms and quickly went back to stock after only 2 days. to me, the stock is far superior in speed and functionality- everything just works. 6.5 just looks prettier. the stock seems to be some sort of hybrid 6.5 anyway as the more finger friendly aspects of 6.5 have already been incorporated. for some reason i just dont share the same 6.5 experience. just my 2 cents.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

I have loved pretty much ever one of Mighty's roms that i have tried thats why i thought for sure something was up with my phone.. I did also do a "clear all data" after flashing the rom still have some hiccups and sluggishness... Id love to see it running on someone elses TP 2 to see if what im getting is the norm..

ill probably install the next MM rom (or maybe just try 12/06 again) .. maybe its my microsd slowing down the phone some how (its a sandisk class 8GB) or maybe not having the simcard in the phone causes something to slowdown? who knows..

im more and more convinced that its my phone and not the rom... just trying to see if anyone else has the problem and apparently no one does.

people have mentioned it getting slow after installing some software but noone has mentioned the phone freezing (especially during cab installs) so it seems as thought its an isolated situation with my phone.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

What if your stock ROM is 6.5? Then what does that all mean? Not all TP2's came with 6.1.

MightyROM 12.6 is solid. It's not too far off the stock 6.5 ROM from USCC. If you're having problems with it slowing down your phone, crashing or whatever else (and you havn't installed anything else after the flash....NOT EVEN A TASKBAR) then try a few things:

Hard reset:

if that fails.....

Reflash stock ROM (this prob won't make a bit of difference but might as well eliminate ALL possible causes)
Redownload MightyROM
Reinstall MightyROM
Hard reset

if that fails.....

Get a new phone.

if that fails.....

Try another ROM and tell Mighty Mike how much his ROM sucks!

my internet sharing doesn't work it always say waiting for connection. It works before I use provisioning, but doesn't after.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

12/06 is nice, not perfect, No rom is, but its very nice, some may say the Rom of the Month..

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

Te only issues im having are the stupid mylocation weather wont update anymore and the software keybored pops up in landscape every time i open a text and go to type. other than those 2 huge annoyances its a great rom.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

Try an Energy ROM. He has every flavor under the sun. 6.1, 6.5, manila 2.1, manila 2.5, Dusk etc. He makes me dizzy.

It's slow to boot, but once it's up it's fine.

I think some folks might blame slowness on booting and text messaging issues that can be resolved on just about any ROM.

You need to work with each ROM to tweak it just a bit to your needs.

There are a few good 6.1 ROM if 6.5 isn't for you.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

Mighty makes some of the best roms hands down, but my experience with his TP2 roms is the same as the OP. The phone just generally seems to be lagging a bit. Of the custom roms I've tried by about 4 different chefs, Mighty's have run the slowest (at least seemed to, no way to really gauge it). I have hard reset after each successful flash as well.

I have to admit I haven't tried the newest roms Mighty dropped, but I'm kinda sick of setting up my phone at this point. :P

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

MM 12/6 is my Number 1 RoM ..No doubt..Especially battery life is insane. The best battery life IMO.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

I know its probably sacrilege to say this here.. but im hoping that when HTC/sprint officially releases 6.5 for the touch pro that they also upgrade the UI to 2.1 or sense that way I wont have an urge to mess with custom roms. i used to go to custom roms for speed that wasnt available in stock roms but not that doesnt seem to be the case.

either way.. till they release an official update ill try mighty and the other great chefs here again.

Gotta thank you guys for all the hard work you do. i know for certain my TP1 would have been junk without your roms and im sure the efforts you put into the TP2 roms help lots of folks get the phone the way they want them.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

Mighty's has been the best overall on my phone and needs.....
Speed, stabilty, organization, and ability to customize nothing touches it...
Cfay's was up their but nothing else came close....

Are you doing the flash dance at all?
Some think it's a worthless but I happen to do it everytime....
(hard reset phone, flash stock rom with mem card method, manual hard reset, flash MM 12/06 with mem card method, manual hard reset.....

Time to check out his new three...LOL

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

That's the wonderful thing about WM is that we have that Choice what we can use. We are not stuck with option 1 or option 1. That’s what makes these kinds of communities so great is choice. I think if any person that was using a droid or iPhone spent a few days reading these forums would have to really think what all they are missing out on.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

Did you hard reset after you flashed??? It makes a huge difference!!!

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

hmm i havent done manual hard reset.. just the clear data control panel.. does that make a difference? also i have never flashed from mem card. always from computer, nor have i flashed to stock then to custom.. anyone else do this flash dance?

all i ever do is flash and then clear data from the system settings

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

clear data control panel? i dont know what that is but to hard reset you go to settings/system/clear storage and press 1234

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

yeah thats what i meant.... ive never done the key-press style hard reset.. as a matter of fact, i dont know how to do it on the TP2

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

manual HARD RESET for Sprint TP2.....
hold talk and send then hold power, release after screen pops up with prompts....

I prefer to not use my comp while flashing, IDK why but just what I do.....:laughing6:

I also thought if something happened to my TP/TP2 where i couldn't sync with my computer than at least I have the memory card flash availability already setup......

After awhile it just became more convenient to use mem card.....

I have the stock nbh and Mighty's 12/06 on the card just in case....

Agreed - my go-to rom for now.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

That's all you're supposed to do. What do you find so slow about MightyROM vs. stock rom? IMO MightyROm is probably the fastest of all the custom roms and I don't think its noticeably slower or faster than stock rom.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

actually.. i could deal with the slow down... my "speed" test really is just quickly scrolling back and forth across the tabs in the UI and thats often is slower in MM 12/06

I would deal with that but sometimes i get freezes that require a soft-reset.. then i have to pry off my cover and hit the reset button.. which is too annoying to have to do on any regular basis.. Stock rom has NEVER frozen up on me.. even after i installed all the junk on there..

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

I totaly agree!

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

that is not true ,
you can get it from SSK or calkulin ROMs/kitchens

Re:It is not Mike's ROM , it is WM6.5 which is a TURTLE ! compared to WM 6.1
 

Mike's ROMs Rocks , but you know what ....it is not mike , It is WM6.5
Mike's ROM in the scale of WM6.5 ROMs is fast reponsive and very stable., but it is the OS which is way slower than 6.1.

It is not Mike's ROM , it is WM6.5 which is a TURTLE ! compared to WM 6.1

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

I've never had stock or Mighty freeze on me.....

Stock Opera is crap, you hit back on PPCGeeks on the lower Opera tab and it doesn't go back a page like it should.....
Opera like brings up to the previous post from where I was reading....
I have had to hit the back button like 5+ times to get to the previous page....
Ram usage gets ridiculously high on Stock rom and cleanram doesn't recover the ram as good as it has for me on Mighty's....
Stock doesn't have features/tweaks that Mike has preloaded....
I could go on and on....

Are you installing something on Mighty's that your not installing on stock?
What your normal installs on either rom?

I haven't noticed any slowdowns when comparing 6.5 to 6.1 since the very virgin releases of 6.5 on the TP....

Same speed for me.....

Now when slapping sense 2.5 or using any 6.5.X on any rom it starts to get slower.....

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

On my stock rom I install:
Goodthings2Life clean up
a custom task bar
Ringo 1.5
total commander
spb backup
flip clock for sprint
clear tab slider
a set of Leo tabs
magicall
NeuPower controlpanel
1% battery increment
googlemaps
icontact
idialer
and a slew of other apps

on the MM 12/06 all i install is
neupower controlpanel

nothing else..

and even before installing that its still slow and freezes

i think my phone just doesnt play nice with MM 12/06 for some reason..

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

Works like a champ for me. Even this brand new Love ROM with windows 6.5.3 is faster then stock. I love it.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

must not....LoL
nothing on your list seems to throw a red flag to me, unless someone else see something...
idk try the flash process i posted above if that does nuthin I'm not sure what to say.....

CFay's is a nice alternative, Silence just released, if you looking a 6.5 release with just 2.1 sense.....

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

not to go a little ot here but there is just several reasons in hethis thread why i want to get an iphone and im not trying to bash other phones.

let me start of by saying this is my first smartphone and i do not own any apple products, not even an ipod. I cant say that windows mobile has been the friendliest to me. Apps are horrible compared to the iphone, more expensive, and no matter wich rom you have it just does not seem as fast as the iphone in terms of response time (not talking about service wise). Im really getting tired of all the soft resets that i have to do and when i close an application that im running, it really isnt closed lol.

It also seems to me like, you learn to do something one way on the phone...then try it that way again and its different until u soft reset and it goes back to how it was. seems like it has a mind of its own sometimes.

the reason that i post this is because it seems to happen with every rom. i keep downloading newly dated roms in hopes that it will be perfect and i am let down.....not taking anything away from the chefs, you guys kick ass!!! its just wm os isnt as friendly to me as the iphone seems to be.

Re: Am I the only one having problems with Mighty Rom on the TP2?
 

sounds like a case of "the grass is always greener"

Anyhow, as you said, no offense, but you have to be smarter than the phone you use. I dont consider the iPhone to be a true pda phone but more of a smartphone. The iphone has several limitations that I can easily conquer with the WM phone. No phone is perfect and searching for one that is perfect is an excersize in futility.

In my opinion, the Touch Pro 2 is about as close to perfect as I have seen.
