Hi All,
I currently have a Touch HD and a HD2, and while I like the WM6.1 / TF3D combo of the original Touch HD ROM, I decided to have a go at putting WM6.5 / Sense 2.5 on it, to see how it ran compared to my HD2 (which I've been having some issues with - slow running, freezing, etc).
I've upgraded the Touch HD to Dutty's The One ROM via HSPL, and the ROM seems to work very well, apart from the following issue, which I can't seem to figure out:
I've got the HD synching with my Exchange account, which works fine. Now I want to add my Hotmail account. Now, on the original HD ROM, and on the HD2, this works fine by going onto the Messaging tab and adding the Hotmail account (after setting it up in the Windows Live app initially). When I try this on the HD with Dutty ROM, it lets me go through the wizard, enter the password details, etc. But when I click finish, it just opens an Opera instance and directs me to mobile.live.com! Am I missing something?? MS MyPhone and Windows Live seem to work fine on this ROM (although I notice it's a different version of Windows Live that's on my HD2 standard ROM - Could this be it?).
Thanks in advance

Use this one:
|ROM |NOV 04| Duttys HD WM6.5 Leo Holy Grail R0 |CE 5.2.21869 |HTC SENSE||ONLINE||
I had no problems in hotmail :s
sorry i cant help
I think that might actually be the one I'm using (just double-checked, and yeah it is - I got confused as to the name, as he mentions it being "the one" in the description on HTCPedia)...
Strange thing is... It's working now! I had to hard reset and start over, but both Exchange and Hotmail are working within the Messaging tab (this time, Hotmail was added automatically after I completed Windows Live setup).
If this runs better than the HD2, I guess there'll be a HD2 for sale haha!

believe me, that rom is the perfect one for sense 2.5 and wm6.5. He made such a wonderful job. Its like his work at HD had finished, he made the perfect one.
Maybe one day he will do the perfect rom for hd2
About working, sometimes windows mobile is that way, unexplainable
Hey there,
I have the same problem kinda. I did not mess with the ROM at all, I only added a theme. But the thing is, I have a gmail on my HD2 and its great but when I tried to add my hotmail, that did not work and it took me to opera mobile and so on. So I doubt that it is an issue with the ROM here. here is how I am doing it: mail tab on the bottom--> menu--> add account. am I doing it wrong?
Hi all,
I have had manila freezing problems on past few roms on namely,
XannyTech's 1.0, 1.1,
PDAVIET - v5, v7
(i mention these because i have flashed only these, not others, so this solution could be for other roms too).
Though both these roms are beautifully made up, i had severe manila freezing problems. i didnt install much, but still it occured, and always it happened shortly after i flashed.
Now i had overlooked the exact happening of it, and finally was able to see it happen.
This freezing of manila is happening due to addition of a POP/IMAP MAIL ACCOUNT only. (in reference to my case) And i have been successful in confirming this as i am able to recreate this problem.
I have added a hotmail account too, but that doesn't disturb the manila at all, but only the pop/imap mail account is troubling it.
When the Manila freezes, i am still able to go to the start menu, and from there to MAIL, and then i delete the pop mail account, and soft reset. Everything is back to normal, and the phone works beautifully!
I have been having this problem within a short time of flashing the rom, as i always sync and download my mails immediately after flashing so i can be on the move.
This solution is there, but the lack of having my pop mail on my phone is becoming a problem to me as its my business mail.
Request to Chefs: Can you please try and see if it also happens with you?
I can confirm that the following softwares are NOT the ones creating problem...
S2U2,
Showcase,
I hope this is helpful to all! and i hope the great Chefs here help in overcoming this problem.
I had no problems with manila freezes on pdaviet v5 and v6 with gmail account.
as i said mate, its happening mostly with private business domain pop/imap mail accounts mainly.
Can you try installing a business mail domain on it and see if it freezes?
I will try tomorow at work.
I have the problem you mentioned, but I can not said you is for the POP3 mail account. Manila in several ROMS freezing and go back to prove another ROM in order to have the HD2 OK. Next time I'll flash I not going to install the mail to know if the right problem.
I have IMAP for AOL & pop3 for hotmail installed on various ROM's & no freezing. I have been using Sense on both the HD2 & Xperia for a long time. I think you're on the wrong track. I did encounter freezing with Showcase. I am interested to know what makes you think that it's not this. I take it you have Showcase installed?
Weepatc, i have showcase installed, and working smoothly.
i have set hotmail and gmail accounts and both working fine.
now i have a couple of business domain. and ONLY when i set them up, do i encounter Manila to freeze up for good.
The moment i remove those accounts from the email settings, all is back to normal.
i have tried out this process about 6-7 times to reconfirm if that is what causing the hangups, and that is what caused it all the time.
Maybe u should try to flash a rom, then setup emails without installing showcase. I had a problem with this app on some roms, especially the new ones with start button at tho bottom.

Are your email accounts set up to retrieve email automatically. If so, it might be an idea to set it up for manual Send/Recieve & try that.
I also have freezing issue but ramdomly and suddenly. I tried XannyTech ROM 1. 0 and 1.1
any workaround ?

I think he is on the right track with this. I have been having the same issues and after setup mail with Seven (www.seven.com). It seems to occurred when setting up Push e-mail for POP or Exchange.
However, I am only observing this issue with the 28XXX and the 235XX builds (basically anything using 6.5.X UI.) It does not occurred with 218XX builds which just 6.5 UI.
I aggree something bogus is happening, i was fine on miri 1.0 6.5.x with exchange and hotmail, no freezes, upgraded to xanytech evolution rc1....freezes like a mofo, also got freezing on miri 1.1 but i think that may have been down to something else
Hi there...
i'm just using HD2Owners Roms...
have also the Manilla freezes...
since i'm not using pop3 or Imap ... only Exchange sync!!!
Startmenü still available... just got into the orignal Windows Settings (thanks to B&B Tweaks... to have a option to enable this..)
so just got into the home settings, and disable and renable sense...
then sense isnt freezing...
i had many programm now in focus.. the last one was fpsece... but i didn't have installed this cab right now and sense still freezing from time to time... but not everytime... so no guess whats the real problem....
I'm going to try flashing back to stock then flashing again, this has happened before on other devices, flashing from custom rom to custom rom, it might be worth a shot, its only going to take 10mins, i'll try tonight and post my results.

Cool, so now more and more people are experiencing the same problem. Atleast now we know what is causing the problem, so its easier to search for a solution.
Coming to think of it, this problem is cropping up only on the Manila 2.5.1922 version.
I think we should request some chefs to make a rom with the old 1921 manila.
look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5308280&postcount=164
my "story"
maybe it has something to do with manilla customizing...
same issue here with WM 6.5.x office 2010beta
I think manilla freezes like you describe in circumstances where the installed software makes a change to manilla in some way.
I have had the same problems when installing the HTC Network plugin, because it adds the network plugin option to the Other settings tab within manilla. I have also been able to repeat this fault consistently, and has always requred a hard reset to rectify.
However, from what i can gather, it is something that only applys to Manilla 1922 as opposed to 1921, which is a real pain when everyone seems to be using 1922 in their roms now.
i use 1922 in my rom and never had a freeze

The question for you is: are you doing any e-mail (pushing or pop) with it. Are you also using it on HD2 device. I have used Manila all day today with no lockups or freezes, however I have not setup any of my e-mail stuff. I did installed my applications and still no issues. I will soon setup my e-mail and then freezes are guaranteed
Hi
I will gift with 100€ for the first chef that can Fix this (using 2.5.2x manila & VM 6.5.x)
I have found a problem with Manila 2.5.2x (manila 2.5.19211619 does not have this problem)
I have test several custom rom with manila 2.5.2x and all of them has the same problem
For sure I have MTTY, Hard Reset Etc on every new Flash.
These are the problems (400 contacts and 40 emails)
1.- Open Sence/manila "All People"
2.- Select a contact, Go to Email Tab of the contact .. Very slow
3.- pusht Back--- Slow
4.- Open a Contact and select a Diferent Call Number that the default, it takes 10sec to dial
Now:
Go to ActiveSync Options and Deselect (emails)
Do the same 1 to 4... FAST!!!
remenber this is only happeing when you sync Contacts and Emails with Exchange.
The problem is that everytime you open a contact it lookups for the emails and this slowdown everything
Is there anyway to avoid to do the lookups of emails?? It should just lookup for emails when I select the Email Tab(stock Rom does it) of the contact but not every time I open ALL People or a single contact or I want to select a diferent Number.
Any Idea of a Hack??? or a way to fix??
UPDATE 1:
I have open a "Request" on the forum to see if some expert can help us
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=676527
Update 2:
any rom (stock or Custom) with Manila Build 2.5.19211619 works fast.. No problem with contacts so is a Manila 2.5.2x Problem..
Update 3:
Temporal Trick : I have move all the email fields of the contacts to the Notes field and now "All people" is fast! not a good solution but at least I can use my phone with contacts and Emails
Iosu
Thanks!!
Hi..
I'm the only one with this problem???
Iosu
I have the same problem but not with Exchange but with synching with Lotus Notes Traveller.
This is why I am still using Duttys ML WWE 1.5 because on this one it working like on stock roms.

I used about 30 different cooked ROMs on my LEO and i doesnt have this problems... Syncing with Exchange 2007 emails, contacts, calendar and tasks.
Try Task 29, use correct Radio and make HR after flash.

thanks! I will try ..
btw, did you ask to dutty if he knows a solution?
Yes I have asked Dutty and he was so kind and made a quick test rom but also no change.
Normlay the stock roms have .NET 2.0 and I install .NET 3.5 so I was thinking that maybe there is the root cause for the behaviour, but the old WWE 1.5 from Dutty has also .NET 3.5 integrated.
Could it have something to do with policies, safety features, certificates which are missing in a cooked rom and left behind for space and speed reasons?
We have now for test purpose a new sync software installed - msuite - to see if this is changing. I have to test till end of this months but I am traveling next week and need a working phone.

Hi
any chef jump on this???
Thanks!
It seem that there are more people affected by the same problem.
Issue seems to be related to the latest manila versions 2.5.2012. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669324
Older manila 2.5.1920 does not show this contact lockup issue.
Those having the problem, can you please advise if your company is deploying IT policies on your phone when you sync the first time with exchange? This is what may be creating the problem.
The same issue here!
My company applies only a Password policy to the phone (screen is locked after 2 minutes and password is needed to unlock it)
Kind Regards,
Weave

New manila packages from LEO 2.13
the Leo 2.13 ROM has upgraded all the packages related to the contacts.
Hopefully the problem is gone.
I've seen a few ROM for the LEO already released with this new packages (E.G. Miri). Anyone has tried if the problem appear in these new ROMs?
I have this same problem. Sense 2.12/Exchange 2003 server with NO policies. Removing email sync on my exchange account does not help. One things I've noticed is that it only happens when I choose my a certain contact (MY wife!) as one of my favorites. I chose six other favorites and they all were added with no problem. I tried completely deleting the contact and recreating it but the results were the same.
I managed to solve the problem by exporting my contacts from exchnage via pimbackup and completely removing exchange account. That's obviously NOT an ideal solution.
Even without exchange, it seemed a little laggy when I added my favorites. Since some people without exchnage are reporting the issue, I wonder if the issue be caused by having a large number of contacts (I had 65 Exchange contacts) with the contacts being from Exchange making the problem worse.
Leo 2.13 doesn't seem to solve the problem.
I've cooked a ROM using the following updated packages from Leo2.13, but unfortunatelly I got the same problem.
Contact_Picker_1_0_20143220_00
Contact_Utility_Engine_1_2_20141225_00
Facebook_Engine_1_1_20143627_00
HTCMessaging_Client_1_5_20143625_00
Social_Networks_Engine_1_1_20113927_01
I haven't been able yet to identify which package is responsible for the lockup, but I'll be cooking a new ROM with these packages from the old 1.66 ROM
If anyone have a clear idea of which package is producing the problem, please let us know.
Hello Community!
I've noticed one problem with almost ALL Sense 2.5 Roms! Mostly when I leave a contacts page (for example Details or Messages Tab) by pressing back, or Homebutton my phone freezes for about 10 seconds. It doesn't matter if I use the new HTC messaging or not...
In 2.1 Roms I didn't noticed this issue.
Is there any solution for this?
greets
hi,
the contact tab lockup appear only on the manila 2.5.20xx
i've been suffering the same and have to go back to the older ROMs with Manila 2.5.1920.
the problem seems to appear when you have a exchange/lotus email account with a complex folder tree, and contacts with multiple email accounts.
the reason and solution on newer manila versions is unknown.
i'm planning to cook a ROM with a new wm6.5 build, but with the old manila 2.5.1922. i'll share when tested.
if anyone else has found a solution on newer builds pls advise.
i've tried mixing packages and changing dlls with no luck.
hm, but I have no email-accounts installed...^^
in the older builds, is there the possibility to get the old manila 2.1 SMS-View?
greets
I neither have any e-mail accounts installed but am still experiencing this lag. I'm using Manila 2.5.20xx
Any ideas on how to fix that?
Some people has also reported lags/lockup on the people tab when they have large quantity of contacts, or after restoring large number of SMS.
Is it your case?
I've been using various Android builds, and I like most of them. My one problem is my Exchange calendar doesn't seem to be synching with Android. Also I can't find an app that does Hotmail -- at all. One like the HTC email app in WinMo that uses Push.
Can anyone recommend some fixes for these issues?
I'm using an Energy ROM 6.5.5 + 2.12 radio + MattcLeo 1.5 and my exchange calendar syncs fine. I know there are some companies who don't allow Android devices to sync with their servers fully. Could this be your problem? You may try deleting you account and resyncing it.
As far as hotmail goes I believe you have to set it up manually. I don't believe there is anything on the market for it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I am mattc leo v1.5 my hotmail and exchange is working fine.
mattc leo v1.5
radio 2.10.50.26
miri hd rom v.17
i also don't have any solution but can report, that for my sync works well with any build using mail2web.com. so it should be related to hotmail...
Thanks everyone. I was DarkStone when I had the problems. I tried FroyoStone this morning and the calendar that came in it worked with Exchange, so it is possible. Problem is FroyoStone still have some HTC Sense stuff in it (even if it's a clean build), and I'd rather have a complete Sense free device (like DarkStone). So I'll probably have to research this more.
FroyoStone had nothing for setting up a Hotmail account though.
If anyone has any further suggestions, I'd be very happy to hear them.
To let those know:
The newer builds of Android are working okay with the Calendar and Exchange. Tested with Darkstone HD2Froyo v2.0 and 2.1. mattc's Nexus builds also work.
I couldn't find any useful Hotmail apps, but I did find how to add Hotmail as an account on the phone using POP (you need a really old Hotmail account or a paid one for it to work). Also Microsoft is in the process of moving Hotmail to using Exchange compatible interface, so we'll be able to add Hotmail as an actual Exchange service.
