I find that ever since I've updated to WM6.5, my phone's taking up more RAM around ~70%. Anyone else having the same thing?

i read about sense 2.5.. that's the manila 2.5?

isn't it buggy?

Manila Sense 2.5 is NOT available on official HTC roms. This version was develop for the HD2 ( Leo ) and is NOT suitable for the TP2. It is only available in cooked roms - it is laggy because mainly it is more suitable for higher processor ; the bugs are because it is being "cooked" from the the HD2 roms. If you want a stable cooked rom, jusrt stay away from the Manila 2.5

If you have upgraded to the official 6.5 HTC rom - YES the memory utization is higher. Please read back posts 203 to 206 for user experience/comments

There is NO best rom ; if you posed this question at forum.XDA your post could be deleted. If you were to review all the postings in the cooked roms, you will notice one common trend : there are praises and same time criticisms.

It actually all depend on what you want in the rom. Some guys wants a rom brimful with utilities while some want a leaner/thin rom with most Windows builtin programs removed. I prefer a leaner rom cos I find many Windows utilities are not necessary or I never use.

I'd not recommend one to try the Manila 2.5 versions as it is still in developmental stage. This is based on the HD2/Leo. However since the HD2 was released , the last 10 days has seen more improved versions of it from the various cooks.

The most stable rom is still based on Manila 2.1 ; I have tried most of it and I also cannot tell you which is the best

If you are a rom flash freak - popular ones are Energy, Cell Pro, TPC, Miri, Fusion - who are more aggressive in updating their roms. Of these I find Fusion the most satisfying ( read is NOT the best ) and meeting my needs follow by Energy, TPC, Cell Pro and Miri

My LEAN rom choices are Cell Pro and ER2 ; presently my TP2 is on Cell Pro Lite ver 2

So to find your "best" just download and flash thde various ones available. Spend some time reading the postings and assess which one might be suitable for your needs


Added on November 30, 2009, 9:50 pmNow that I have got myself a htc HD2 - i wish to sell off my TP2 ; bought it 9 Oct 09. My unit is not local set, bought in Spore with receipt - is a imported T-Mobile unit ( very beautiful Gold/Brown color combination ) without front camera. PM me for details. Outlook is 10/10

Muahaha, Benny888. You're in the same position as me. I got the HD2 out of super sheer excitement and drooling over the HD2 and got rid of my TP2 as well. Unlike you, I was feeling charitable and gave it to my brother. How I wish I could make some recovery on the HD2 investment. Good luck in your sale!

Actually this was my 2nd unit . My first unit I bought in KL - but I traded in for this T-Mobile. Because :

1. Build quality is much better - it feels very solid ; I suppose quality requirements for Taiwan products to Europe is higher
2. The color scheme Gold Bronze/Brown was so beautiful
3. The volume switch is separated into 2 pieces : up and down - easier to press
3. Reset hole is located outside at the side
4. The micro SD card is located at the side and can be remove opening a small flap ; so for both reset and this one no need to take off back casing
5. Overall size looks smaller/slimmer due to design of the edges round the unit

Well I do recieve several enquiries and I letting go cheap just to recover some money loh!

##########################################################
2 Dec UPDATE: For thos who have enquired - unit already sold. TQ for the interest

does your pouch have a strong magnet. TP2's keyboard slider is magnet base, so when u pull out your pda wakes up and goes into landscape as if u slide out keyboard, then back to portrait as it recalibrates.

I faced this problem for both TP2 and Xperia, yup, its mainly when i use leather pouch with magnet, it interferes with the magnet at the keyboard base (bottom left at the back, u can try swiping with any magnet over it and the phone will turn on by itself) . It really pisses me off coz sometimes some movement inside the pouch also cause the phone to turn on, wasting battery.

Went to Low yatt looking for any other non magnetic pouch to protect my phone, and couldnt find any! I searched all the floors and the only option is either Golla pouch with girly design or stick with magnetic pouch. Only in Sunway Pyramid at last that i managed to find non magnetic leather pouch by Capdase with clip on using button ( shop located beside Pda Expert), problem solved!

Go to htcpedia.com - download Rhodium Settings Tool : There is option available to enable WIFI always on when in standby mode

Main purpose is to save battery and is default . If you'd like to enable wifi always on use the Rhodium Settings Tool I mentioned earlier NOT the Advanced Config Tool ( this will not work on the Rhodium)

Yes I think it'll drop further but not so soon . These prices were quoted to me at LowYat shops yesterday ( I ask just out of curiosity).

You cannot compare the TP2 with HD2. Both are different - HD2 is without keyboard and capacitative screen while TP2 is with keyboard and resistive screen. Those who do a lot of typing will HATE the HD2 but they will love the TP2 ; infact I'd say the TP2 is the BEST windows mobile pdaphone with keyboard I had ever used. No other pda can match its keyboard including non WM eg the recent Nokia N97, Nokia E71. Close to keyboard performance will be the Blackberry Bold. Until HTC released a keyboard successor, I seriously doubt price will drop fast
