Hi, I've been searching high and low for others with this problem but here I am starting a thread...
First let me just thank all the devs who worked on this ROM. Your work is very much appreciated.
Is anyone having issues with SMS after flashing EE 2.0.1? I went straight to 2.0.1 no 2.0 first. Seems to be OK except somewhat buggy. Maybe this is why?
Here's the central issue for me so far:
When typing in an SMS text input box with Handcent, screen would go blank/black and just stay like that with no recovery. Could eventually get back to home but message input would be lost . It got so bad I uninstalled Handcent (crying shame, i loved it) and went back to stock SMS (hate it, booo!). Even with that I still have issues though not as frequent. While typing in text box, text box will disappear and I am left looking at the general text thread, but at least when I pull the box back up my message is still there and I can keep going. Happens CONSTANTLY. I am an avid texter and will have to try other ROMS to fix if I cannot resolve. I'm lazy and don't want to do that .
Should I wipe and flash 2.0, then 2.0.1? OR I guess if I'm going to do all that I might as well flash 3.0? Any more conservative suggestions ?
Thanks in advance !!!!!!!!!!!

i'd suggest going to 3.0, never used it tho. do a nand back up first, and if you don't like it you could always restore back. the update of the rom might fix what ever is causing your issues. i read most of the EE thread, and don't ever recall anything like what you describe. maybe .... you could try uninstall handcent, then reinstall see if it helps any. just might be worth a try.
also you prolly should of posted this in the EE thread. some people around here get pissy when new threads are started.
Evil Eris 2.0.1 is only a flash update to 2.0 - you must have EE2.0 installed first. It also sounds like you didn't do a data wipe before flashing EE either. Personally, I would move to EE3.0 anyways. Framework is working on an update to 3.0 now that will finish the incomplete theme as well.
What g00gl3 said. Do a data wipe (backup first) and flash 3.0 anyways. There'll be a new version of 3.0 out very soon.
I did do a wipe... I'll try 3.0 and see what happens. That's a project for the weekend. BTW, I cannot find the EE thread. Can someone post a link to that? Search is limited in this forum (and I'm new here so maybe it's right in front of me). Thanks for the advice!
It's in the front now, I had a few FC's at first when I flashed it, but after a couple of days it was smooth sailing.
EE Link is in my sig.

Me too, lolz...
Thanks kindly everyone! Apologies to Mods for the new thread.
Flashed 3.0 yesterday and issue has been resolved, as it mostl likely would had i gone back and instead flashed 2.0 THEN 2.0.1. Anyhoo, LOVE 3,0!!! I especially dig the subtle blue theme (blue battery display, icon backgrounds turn blue when touched, etc). SWEET. Soft key backlights work, runs super smooth. Very nice!
I read in another forum that the official release will be another week or so due to some tweaking they want to do to the ROM.
I don't know if this is accurate or not (and I do not have alink to the forum where I read this...I read too many forums), but I think I may wait for the official release.

when 2.13 was leaked it was exactly the same as the one that was released. I'm guessing this will be the same deal. Doesn't hurt to wait though.
3.14 is amazingly stable in my opinion...loads faster than 2.13 to boot!
I didn't wait.
I've been pleasantly surprised by how stable it's been. I've had maybe one or two freezes since the install and that was on day one. Since then it's been rock solid. Even the HTC messaging has been lag free.
It will be some time before I think about switching back to custom ROMs. Although I do miss all those nice features that nrgz has in his builds...
I'll probably install the official release if they've made any tweaks.
I love reading this and am not a patient man, but on the tmo forum (I finally figured out where I read it) they note puling it back for a few more tweaks.
probably bs, but who knows.
I know I should just dicer in with a link from here as I did last time, but I just did a fresh wipe and reinstall a few weeks back due to exchange server policy enforcement and subsequent lock out and thought maybe to wait...just in case.
thanks for the kind responses though!
There is a major flaw. my head phones do not work with this rom. i tested it twice and then had to go back to retail to confirm that my head phone did not become defective. im sure they will review and fix this issue. the speed is the same i can confirm. it needs some more tweaks none the less.
3.14 has been working fine so far. However, my lock screen picture is now stretched. It's driving me insane!!
Has anyone else had this problem? Could it be happening because of something other than the new rom update?
Does anyone know how to adjust lock screen pictures? I can't seem to find any options.
How do you install the .exe file?
What .exe file? The ROM itself? You connect your phone via USB to your computer, let it sync, then run the .exe from your computer to install the ROM on your phone. Read the stickies for exact instructions.

maybe something was wrong apart from the rom, because both stock and my custom roms worked fine... i listen to audi via headphones twice a day every single day... and my headphones work
the rom is a little faster and there are new GUI designs
when i used it as a custom rom, i had no issues. but the moment i used xmoo version of 3.14 i would always get the same issue. i connect head phones and i dont hear anyone talking via phone calls. also for some reason, they are always on speaker phone even if the option is not enable.
can you please link me the version of rom you are using?

God what a huge improvement everything is. I unplugged it from power last night around midnight and left it next to my bed while I slept. With WiFi on. It's now 10 hours later, I've toyed with it for about an hour, and the battery is at 90%.
Unfortunately, HTC Messaging + Swype doesn't appear to be a lot better. Maybe a little, in terms of the initial lag when replying to a msg. Also, when a new msg comes in and you hit the message tab, the thumbnail isn't always the current msg.
Emails look a TON different. Much smaller text = YAY!
Knucklehead noobie here... Where do I get the updated ROM from? Thanks.
Does flashing a new ROM delete all your text messages and stuff?
ranestari, yes it does.
However, just sign up for the Microsoft MyPhone thing (free, and if you already have a live account, you're good to go.) The MyPhone app is in your start menu.
It will back up (sync) all of your texts and pics to their online space, only accessible by you (http://myphone.microsoft.com)
When you flash the rom, just launch the MyPhone app again, log in etc... and it will sync all your texts back to your phone.
There are third party sync options out there, but I've never seen the point.
After flashing 3.14 to my HTC HD2, Microsoft My Phone no longer can synchronize with my computer. It just gets stuck at Authenticating User.
Anybody else have this problem?
Microsoft MyPhone doesn't sync with your computer. It syncs to the cloud (internet). Just put in your live, msn, hotmail or whatever account you configured it with before you flashed, and it should resync.

Can you elaborate on this? My main frustration with the current rom is the stupid HTC messaging client with swype. I absolutely despise this thing and I tried disabling it and going back to the old windows messaging but that didn't go too well (unread counter never resets.. OMFG so frustrating!). My only hope is that they fix this crap in the new rom.
Is the lag when loading texts still ridiculous? Is it at least somewhat better? Why haven't they figured this out, this is just pure crazy in my opinion. A company of that magnitude can't figure out how to fix one of the most basic applications in the phone. this is absurd.
I personally HATE Swype and disable it evertime I flash to a new ROM or come in contact with someone thats got an HD2 with it enabled, but what I can say is that while HTC Messageing in the new ROM is "faster" its also just as slow. What I mean is that (for me anyways) it no longer lags when I get a new text, but its just as slow to load a thread if it has any ammount of messages in it. Personally I don't find HTC Messageing to be all that bad if you just delete your threads every now and then, but thats just me.
So this is my first time doing anything like this to a phone, I believe I installed it to the rom? its the nexus one gingerbread rom. whenever I turn it on it goes straight to android. I was just having a couple of problems and was wondering if they were just something to do with the fact that I have an unofficial install and there's bound to be bugs or if they're android problems with remedies. One thing is after having my phone on for a while the messaging app starts to lag. the keyboard takes a while to pull up and when I try to send a message it hangs, deleting threads doesn't help but its fixed if I reboot. The other thing is when I get picture messages the picture is really blurry, its almost like, its zoomed in too far but I can't zoom out. I've looked the problem up and apparently it was really common on the tmobile nexus ones (I have a tmobile HD2) but it was fixed in one of the updates. As far as I can tell I have the most recent update but if anyone could throw some input it'd be much appreciated
Never used the ROM you did and never experienced the problemes you had.
So can't really help. I would suggest you try more ROMs before you find the one for you.

i know it would be quite time consuming but alot of times there are quirks in the roms like the blurry MMS and if you look through the forum that you downloaded the rom from i bet youll find the answer to these issues.. maybe even post the questions on the forum. these roms are awesome becasue you have the choice of sooo many styles. there is a post called the Nand Bible in the Nand General section that shows a good variety of different ROMs to try. For Tmo i use the Glacier < aka mytouch 4g rom > by MotoMan and its a great rom and built for tmobile spacifically so is really nice all the settings match right away.
i hope this helps some..
I would just try some other ROMS, a lot of people jump around until they find one that suites them best. I know in some ROMs the blurry MMS is a known issue, and you get that pixel-ridden "low res" look.
When looking at the ROMs, generally they'll post a small "Whats working/whats not" type of section, which may give you a preview of what your getting into. Remember to follow the devs instructions for flashing for the best results.

It's a good new indeed. But don't understand why you're waiting for JB to use the tablet.
As I know JB is a "minor" update, and Thinkpad with ICS's working very fine for me (not like the crappy 3.1 !!!)
Loving my TPT on ICS, I don't care for JB on it, I just want root access!
Thank's to Koshu!
I've successfully installed CM10 v. 0.5, but have problem with layout switch on external Thinkpad Folio keyboard. "CTRL+SCPACE" combination doesn't work. It's annoying to change layout through settings..
It'll be good to change input language by pressing "Sym" key on keyboard as it were in original firmware.
P.S. Can't post it to dev forum.
wow, great work Koshu!
Outstanding job! Works great! Screen lock works fantastic!
Quick question: using adwlauncher and the screen draws sometimes get a bit messed up. The only scroll method that works is regular side to side bounce. Any thoughts?
Thanks again and awesome job!
Interesting just changed density hack option for icons. Unchecked screens are not useable. Checked screen useable but screen draws sometimes get messed up. Would this have something to do with the density issue you mention?
Also, noticed Gallery app doesn't show synced account photos fro Google. Not sure how to fix this.
Latest update - v5, Bluetooth appears to be broken
I saw this in the developer thread, but I'm not allowed to post there yet.
I wanted to confirm that I am also seeing the problem with Bluetooth not being able to turn on, after apply v5 of this ROM. Everything else seems to be working great, though.
Update: Oops, sorry, I guess this thread is for Thinkpad, not the Ideapad K1. My comments apply to the latter.

Yep that is correct.
Since I am still a few posts short of the required 10 for posting in the development section I will give my feedback here.
Koshu released an experimental version 0.8 today, I installed it and ran into one rather annoying problem, the browser button seems to disable not only touch input, but also pen input. I have already wiped and reflashed, if I can provide any helpful logs or some such just let me know it.

A few posts shy as well. Was thinking of flashing 0.8 , but it sounds like it may ne good to wait. Current version doesn't have touchscreen working for some major games like deadspace and shadowrun. Hoping that gets fixed soon.
Developer is doing a great job keeping this tablet current. We are lucky!

Allright. Been reading only long enough. Here I com for my 10 posts
BTW
I successfully put koshus cm10 on my tpt as well. I think I like it.
OTA 3.5 was pretty awesome as well, but it was the annoying little details that lenovo couldn't get fxed.
Noticed that copy and paste doesn't seem to work with cm10. Am I doing sth. wrong?
I'm still on 0.7 cause I need 3G.
If anyone with more then 10 posts reads this:
could you please ask over at the developers forum if anyone has copy-paste issues. it does seem to work sometimes. but not every time I long press some text. especially bad in firefox.

I don't have the 10 posts but I am running 0.8.1 and have not noticed any cut and paste issues. I'll exercise the cut and paste in Firefox and let you know what I find.
EDIT: I tried cut and paste with both Firefox and Dolphin browsers on several web sites and didn't have any problems except with Firefox on the this xda site.

ah ok, thanks. it showed while I tried to post here and over at official lenovo forum. maybe its related to forum sites...
I think it's the recent firefox update. It seems it is very hard to even press a link now. this was better before.
so no blame to koshus great work!
This policy of the 10 posts before posting on the development forum is driving me crazy. I have a lot of questions on this rom but zero answers...
...let's try anyway...
I am experiencing a relevant and annoying issue: when I plug the hdmi cable in, there is a significant drop in responsiveness. For instance, Lecture Notes becomes almost unusable. Any clues? I didn't notice this problem before with the stock kernel. Can it be related to a driver issue?
My first post here... let me just say thanks for the awesome work with CM10 on the TPT Kosh!
I flashed 0.8.1 on my TPT last night which had a SC rom (lots of Chinese apps etc). It works well but I have noticed the TPT is rebooting randomly. Doesn't seem to be consistant as I can watch a 40 minute video, let it sit idle for 3-4 hours with no reboot.
Anyone else have these issues? Is there any log files I can look at to see what is causing it to reboot?

I have the same problems, especially when its idling. I had no time to try a logcat of the hang yet...
my Iconia (always more often) flashes in the launcher, flickers and most of the times everything disappear apart the wallpaper...
i have used apex, nova, trebuchet, holo... all (before or later) start flickering and then die... only way out is to kill the launcher or start another one somehow.
my rom is reflexxx stryker rev 4.2 (but i also used cm9 and had some problem)
i have ics bootloader, but i can't say what version, sorry
i have seen some posts about this problem,
most common idea is that the problem is in the ics bootloader.
the only idea of a solution was to go back to honeycomb BL
but those posts i saw where almost 2 months old... so i wanted to ask:
are there any new solution about this? any new hints? any new ideas?
it is also difficult to search about this on the forum.. since i don't know exactly what to search
thanks anyone for any hint.

As far as I know there is no fix. I've tried many different roms and bootloaders as well as MANY launchers. The only way that I have been able to tone it down is to not use Google widgets. But even then when I play something that uses 3d graphics it may still trigger. I've taken logcats and it says something about some sort of video error, researched it a little and found nothing. I hope that someone has a solution.

i tried to use less widgets... but doesn't really change much...
it is very random, but in my experience it appears more often when battery is low
do you feel the same?
i hope it can be fixed, i'm seriously thinking to sell it because of that (but who will buy it..?)

Don't sell it, just flash stock. I tried them all and had problems. Stock for me run's with no problems and the fastest just give it a try and you won't look back.

I went stock for a while and it was noticeably less often, I still had the issue. Especially when playing Great Little War Game. So I just went back to an overclocked rom. I enjoy the performance more than I regret the flashing screen...
as i wrote to JdgM3NT4L in a pm:
my "solution" is to put a home switcher app shortcut in the lockscreen.
so that when it happens i can kill apex or switch to nova
i mirrored my settings in apex and nova (nova can import all apex settings automatically)
that's the way i survive this boring bug
if someone like the "solution" can try it
and maybe hit thanks button

I actually did the rollback to 3.1, updated officially over the air all the way up. Complete stock. It was better, but the issue persisted.
Loth, I have not noticed if the charge had much effect, But one thing that I think that seems to trigger it is when there is a game/app going that is using 3d graphics, and then any sort of notification pops up as an overlay. There is one rom that I could get it to do this almost on command. I could have a game going and the check the notifications. 80% of the time that was enough to get the flashing started.
So perhaps what you've noticed could be triggered by the low battery popup?
I can say that the latest Flexreaper ShellSHOCK does this very rarely. Maybe three times in the last few weeks, and I play with the tablet a lot.

i installed latest shellshock, let's see
It happens to me all the time with all the launchers I 've tried. I am in unlocked ics bootloader and stock rom. The same happened with the locked bootloader. I tried the CM10 Rom same results. I removed all widgets from the homescreen with no luck.
If it's in the ICS Bootloader then all must have the same problem or not?
Any solution except going back to 3.2?
To fix it I had to go full stock to Honey Comb then reinstall CWM then install Thor cm v15 and no problems since. I think the problem is the ICS bootloader
After some good times with few troubles, now it is again a huge problem: i almost can't use the tablet it happens every day and more than once.
I think I'll go back to stock honeycomb
