Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

cant be the 1% battery feature thats causing this. its been on the old tweaks and i have been using the old tweaks since day one and i did not notice any increased battery drain. i would look into other software you use and/or reg tweaks that may be the culprit... making a blanket statement about the battery feature is not valid. with all due respect of course! ;-)

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

What is the difference in the three sprint cabs?
1. Sprint tweaks first
2. Sprint cleanup fourth
3. Sprint Tweaks fifth

The first sprint tweaks is for 6.1?
The correct order of installation for 6.5 is:
Clear Storage / Hard Reset then,
2. Sprint Cleanup fourth
3. Sprint Tweaks fifth

Can someone please confirm?
Thanks,

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I hear ya,
but I noticed the same thing. My battery life was better in 6.1 prior to that tweak and 6.5 has been running good without. I too fear it will get worse once I install the tweak.
For what its worth, I run atleast 2 weeks with nothing installed except for the tweaks just to test it.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Just a comparison

I have exchange email, 20-50 texts a day 6.1 (after tweaks) I'd be getting my battery dying notifications around 8-10 hours.

On 6.5 with my location turned on for weather every hour, exchange on, same amount of text, I go easily 14-16 hours if not more.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Here is i how i did it:
open opera, in the address write "opera:config" scroll down to "user pref", click on it and scroll down till you find " Max number of tabs"...change it to the number you like....and restart opera....thats it...it worked for me..

Also, i found that the flash lite instller on XDA has it in its exe as an option.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Thanks GoodThings2Life again for all your hard work. I rather keep on using your tweaks.cab than to unlock\flash custom roms. Installed your tweak.cab last night and its been working flawlessly.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

With all due respect... I GUARANTEE that's whats causing it. Because it happened before on 6.1. Battery was dying like crazy. So I read somewhere that was a cause. I took it off, and WHAM... fixed. No battery drain.

Plus, I have NO software loaded yet. I just did a hard reset to run the cleanup tab, so nothing else could be causing it.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Interesting, the %1 battery feature alleged to increase battery drain? I guess its plausible if you think about it, its polling the battery more frequently for its charge status thus increasing consumption, right? However, I'm not sure it even works like this, it may just be a tweak to allow it to report more specific status without increasing charge polling frequency. Still, this is news to me.

Can you post links to discussions or threads that validate this in any way?

PROGRAM ICONS CHANGED ?? lower resolution?
 

GoodThings2Life: Does this Cleanup .cab change some of the icons for certain things. I'm pretty sure I noticed this but I didnt spend much time with the original before I applied the cab. For instance, the Text Messaging program icon (not referring to the slider Tab) has changed? Its an envelope, it was different before, wasn't it?

The only downside to this is that when you place one of these programs with an older icon on the Home screen it gets blown up and looks like crap (Text Message envelope has jaggies, pixelation). However, some of the newer icons are redone with better resolution and look better in larger size on the home screen (for example, File Explorer icon).

Am I just imaging this here or did some program icons get changed? What was the change for? The stock Sprint 6.5 icons actually look better if you happen to use them stickied on your Home Tab. Any chance of getting a cab that will restore these previous icons?

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Honestly... I don't remember where I read it. But when I did... I took it off and all was good.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Meh... I just deleted it and it put the phone there. not what I wanted, but I guess better than lock.

Thanks

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I too noticed something anecdotally with the 6.1 tweaks reducing battery range. But I installed some countermeasures cab/tweaks such as no-push mail & battery polling that up my battery life to very impressive heights.

This is not a condemnation of your theory about G2L tweaks..just merely stating that there could be other factors playing here.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

i found the same problem. the only work-around i have found so far is a tedious one. removing the fb link and relinking.. it's a pian so far, but i'm sure there is a better solution out there somewhere.

i will test today if the same thing happens by just installing the tweaks version instead.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I installed s2u2 and have the mms notification stuck on the s2u2 screen. I remember there was some fix for this, but I can't find the cab or thread. Can someone help me with this? I deleted all sms/mms and reinstalled s2u2, but the mms notification still appears.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Try this.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

In 6.1 and in the unaltered 6.5, voice command was instigated by holding down the phone answer key for one second. Even though I have voice command activated, that doesn't work now. Any ideas?

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Does anyone know the name (or where I can find) the soft reset/switch off cab GT2L uses in his tweaks? It's a great function and the best one I've seen thus far.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

This functionality is completely unreliable judging by the many threads and posts on the topic throughout the forums. It is NOT related to my tweaks package.

Yes.

Confirmed. Seems to be an incompatibility in no2chem's 1.2 edition of the nuePower control panel applet. Unfortunately, it's the newest/only version available, so unless he issues a fix, I recommend sticking with the traditional Power applet instead.

Agreed. Post a valid alternative, and I'll gladly consider it.

See below.

Thanks for the update. I also have this problem regardless of whether I use my packages or not. Unfortunately, good luck ever seeing a proper fix. My recommendations... suck it up and deal with it. It's not a battery drain, and it's actually helpful.

This is the expected behavior of the Classic Word Correction tweak. If you prefer the traditional style, see post #2 or #3 (I forget without looking) for an eT9_restoration package.

Confirmed. I'll see if I can find a solution, but considering that they don't even give you the option to disable it naturally, can't really promise anything.

I mean use a registry editor to make the change (I like PHM RegEdit). Suffice it to say, however, it's best if you just leave it alone.

I call BS. It does NOT and is NOT CAPABLE of "draining" your battery. See response from marctronixx for a nicer response...

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Thank you for all the updates GoodThings! Just out of curiosity, which cab do you use on your device, the tweaks or cleanup?

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Same issue, when you go into the button option to re-assign it, you can not. I actually restored a backup image because this is a deal breaker for me.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Enable Internet Connection Sharing (Sprint only, for now)>

I could not get this to work, I actually read a post by MightyMike stating Internet sharing does not work with the stock Sprint 6.5 ROM. Just a heads up to everyone.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I realize that I need to update some documentation, but come guys, READ THE FIRST POST CAREFULLY! It's all in there, in English!

You only need TWEAKS OR CLEANUP, not both! You need WM65 for Windows Mobile 6.5... or the other files for the appropriate carriers with Windows Mobile 6.1.

All of that is explained in the post if you bother to read (and I'm not picking on you personally, several people have asked).

You can't judge battery life in the first few days of flashing a new ROM, because you are impressed by the new features and thus playing with it more which keeps the display and radios on which drains battery. That's just a simple fact.

Just a comparison, I am also in the 20-50 texts per day category with emails for TWO accounts syncing every half hour. Plus "services" like weather syncing every hour. Plus about a half hour of calls. I take my phone off the charger every morning at 7:30am and it's currently 7:30PM and I'm sitting at 65%, and today I was in a known weak signal area all day. On a normal day I'm sitting at around 75% in good signal conditions and the same usage.

As said by Spock... I'm sorry, but you're wrong. It is NOT the driver. no2chem has indicated that in the upper 15% the results are often sporadic, but beyond that it is simply not possible to be causing a drain. You can compare results using the Power & Battery control panel applet (although be aware there IS a bug where it will freeze the phone after you click OK to be done with it... sorry, not my fault on that one). The discharge being high can be caused by any number of factors, but mine in a good signal area is 150mAh. That's a pretty good number and very much consistent with my daily usage. That's down from 210mAh with WM6.1.

That said, I'm not going to argue about it. I am not removing the battery driver. It has worked great for over 2 years now (TP1 and TP2) so either you like it that way, or you don't use it. Not trying to be a jerk, but I'm not going to stand by and let inaccurate information be distributed.

Yes it does. I'll fix the two affected icons for Microsoft Outlook and Text Messaging in the next update.

Thanks for the assist, but as a matter of preference... please don't post cabs in this thread. Instead, please link to existing posts. I have it archived frequently so they'll disappear, the server doesn't need the extra load from duplicate files, and I'd also appreciate the original posters get credit for their efforts.

Re-set your Long End Key Press... Settings tab, Menu, All Settings... Personal... Buttons... Reset it to Voice Command.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

A slightly more specific version of Cleanup... nothing too special, just sets the Owner Info and a different Bluetooth "Device Name". I actually name all of my devices after starships. Lately I've been on a Stargate Atlantis kick, so my Zune is WraithDart and my TP2 is PuddleJumper. :)

I just set it just fine as a test worked as I expected it to...

I used it today at work. I assure you that it most certainly does work. MightyMike is right... it doesn't work in STOCK configuration. The tweaks/cleanup enable it.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Wow, that was exhausting, lol!

OK, I've gotta do some work around the house and then back to work on some things.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Could you replace the cellular placement of the program files in the start button listing with an alphabetical list (like the one if you select your programs for the quick start icons)?

The new cellular structure is not only very confusing but makes it very difficult to locate the right program.

Since the 6.5 places your quick launch icons in part on your main screen, the start button should lead to a full list of programs.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

The Stargate series rules !!!! Thanks again for all the hard work.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I'd love to. Got any suggestions of how to accomplish this? :)

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

For those not liking the WM6.5 startmenu, have you guys tried the AwesomeStart Menu located http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587631. I have it installed and its way better than those scattered icons.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

GT2L, I find it completely comforting that others want a WM6.1 or Modified Manila menu

While the nueControl panel for the power doesnt work, dont remove the driver, if you have issues with the driver consult MightyMike as he has had it in all his roms without issues.


Also a big SG fan, SG/SG:A/SG:U, normally I do the same (ship names) with SciFi shows (to include Anime, its just SciFi drawn out :D )

I plan to wait a bit, just want to see how changes pan out, nothing on you, but I dont want to HardReset so often... Need to find a good EMU...

EDIT: also MightyMike said that CMGuardian wasnt the only thing preventing Stealth Tether, and that it would revert on each soft reset, just thought you might want to ask what he had to to, so you can add it/fix it, in your package

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I don't plan on removing the driver. I'll look into a version of the control panel applet that doesn't lock up... maybe Mike has one. As for CMGuardian, I have checked and it's definitely disabled.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I think the problem is more then the CMGuardian. Every time I tried to connect I kept getting user name and password could not be verified.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

That did it! Embarrassingly, I never noticed the menu button in the settings menu.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Your link is broken. Also, I'm telling you it works. Give it a rest.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Since Mike did a thread cleanup, you will need to ask him GT2L, he said that simply disabling CMGuardian was no longer enough, he said Sprint did something that made a secondary way to make sure stealth tethering be disabled after each reset, I guess it took him quite a bit of time to figure it out to make sure it was 100% disabled...

Ill definitely wait until you figure out what he figured out, I definitely use my phone as a modem :D

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

I here you, I am sure its my error. Just wanted to make sure, thats all. Sprint gets enough of my money lol. Thanks for the tweaks cab, greatly appreciated. MightyMike cleaned his thread up, please ignore the broken link.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

OMFG, enough! I'm not stupid. It freaking works. I've tested it after 8 consecutive resets.

It's not rocket science. You disable the service, you delete the Startup shortcut, and you configure the registry entries for ICS. This is not my first barbecue!

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

You know the inside of the ROM better as I do but the menu in question needs to be hidden in the registration.

I don't know if you have a way of looking at the list populated by sence and replicate it again. I am not sure but is sence not mapping the installed programs and icons somewhere? How about copypasta from the old 6.1 ROM?

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Come on people don't piss the man off, he's done a great job with his cleanup.

Re: Touch Pro 2 Cleanup
 

Verizon tweaks are posted now... although my testing on them is very limited, so please be aware that you may experience some weirdness with it. I'll deal with the issues as best I can.
