Question. If you format the boot partition using clockworkmod are you formatting the space that stores clockworkmod, meaning a no longer could boot into it???

Thanx

Edit.. never mind. I accidently just did it and I can still boot into cwm. :)

Hey guys, I installed Aurax ROM (latest) about 2 or 3 weeks ago now for the first time after flashing I tried to hook a headphones but the phone doesn't show it at all like I've done nothing ... I tried 2 headphones 1 of them I'm sure it works as I use it daily with my PC and the other one is the one that came with the phone(Worked last time I used it). So, can anyone give me a hint on what to do and if someone has Aurax installed , plz try the jack because if the problem is on the ROM the i would post it at the ROM topic... but I'm not sure yet ...

What are the main shortcomings on DHD ?

Battery life - it can least for 24h - enough for me

Sound quality - "call trick" made things up

Camera lens and blur ?

Is it now fixed ( I'm planning to buy a phone in 2 weeks ( in this Shop where i want to buy it came before 2-3 weeks ago) ?

This is my main concern, so if u now good news it will be good :/

Greetings from Sarajevo
[Desire HD General] mesut19:
Higher pixel resolution, coating on the screen against fingerprints&better protection in sunlight, better build quilty (The battery/simcard plastic thingy's) frontcamera, multicoloured LED notification lights.

That would be it. I am happy with the battery life.
[Desire HD General] bryant_16:
I would say is the battery issue only..
[Desire HD General] Foladko:
As far as build quality goes, you're better of getting a plastic phone.

The metal is great, but those covers just make me wanna die.
[Desire HD General] teeedubb:
I got a cheapo tpu silicon case off eBay for my dhd and its the best case I've ever had for a phone, it adds a bit to the thickness of the phone but its not obtrusive. I can get a day of heavy usage using cm7 and mm's battery fix. Call quality is great, although speaker volume is on the low side.
[Desire HD General] zla.mas:
Others ? :confused:
[Desire HD General] Hawks556:
I don't have any issues with my DHD anymore. The sound problem and battery life was fixed with a custom rom, sim & battery covers fit perfect and the camera lens/blur issue was fixed with a warranty repair (this problem is found only in the first batch of phones?). The screen is everything i need (yes i've used iphone 4 and galaxy s), a higher resolution wouldn't make such a big difference and I like the colors more than the amoled screen colors.

What phone doesn't get fingerprints on it's screen?
[Desire HD General] niks_5in:
I just want a higher resolution display it makes world difference. Look at iPhone 4 the icons looks like beautiful painting.. and need a front camera video calling becomes useless in DHD
[Desire HD General] zla.mas:
So, problem with camera is solved on new models after January 2011 ?
[Desire HD General] mesut19:
Well before this I had a 3GS. That had a coating which was really nice because the fingerprints weren't getting visible. The Ipad has a special kind of coating to.

You could probably buy some kind of spray for it but for a crown-jewel product of a manufacture like HTC it should be a 'must'

I have a dual sim T5388 pda with windows mobile 6.1.

I know that there are other two version of this pda: the first version is based on android OS, the second version is based on a dual OS system (WM and Android).

Do you know Where I can find and download this two version of the rom for T5388 pda?
[General Questions and Answers] johnkussack:
Hi everyone.

Firs of all, excuse me, cause i'm a newbie at the topic.

My question is "simple": How to flash *anything* to a mobile device based on WIN CE without drivers on windows or linux?

Much further details:

The device is the Kin phone, based on windows mobile 6.5.

Device is connected by USB to the pc.

No activesync / windows mobile device center connection is available (no driver and so).

We can start the device in SBL mode (secure boot loader?), so able to flash IPL,OS,Radio and splash image (according to coinflipper leaked rom analysis).

We got the VID and PID for the product in the SBL mode: V 0x045e; P 0x2345

"lsbusb -vv" on the device shows 2 endpoints, 1 for bulk transfer in, other for out.

Using raw c++ i was able to write and read succesfully on the device endpoint but whatever i sent to it was just answered with a "0x01" as response.

So if the winCE masters here can enlight the thing a little, it will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

John K.

Does any one know how to solve this problem?

my phone was running the Cognition 4.2.1, and then I saw the CyanogenMod 7, which looked way cooler, then I follow the video from the link,

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=978150

(maybe I did not restore to Android 2.1) and then I flashed the Speed mod and my phone was dead since that, it stayed on one screen when I tried to turn it on, 3 button mode to recovery did not work either. here is the picture that I took with the dead screen, has anyone seen this one before, plz let me know, I really appreciate your help.

Can you get into do mode?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shane87:
Yeah, if you can get to download mode, you can flash back to stock using odin. There are a few ways to get to download mode. You can try holding vol up and vol down buttons while plugging the phone into your computer. If that doesn't work, there is a way to force boot into download using a simple and inexpenisve jig. Basically, you take three 100ohm resistors and wire them together. Then, you touch the leads to pin 4&5 of the micro usb connector. This should boot you into download mode, but I have never tested it. I got this information from here on xda, but I can't remember the exact post. Just search for captivate jig, and you should be able to find the topic covering these jigs. Also, the topic will give you much better instructions on how to make the jig. Hope you get unbricked!!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venomio:
And for the future, there's a dedicated CM7 thread for Q&As. There's been a real increase in people failing the flashing process for CM7 these days, and it would be much better for people to have it in one thread (so others can learn from it as well).

But for your current issue, you will have to try and get it to Download Mode. If you can't, then you're in a bit of trouble I'm afraid.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
looks like you will be learning how to make a jig, if none of the other ways to force it into download mode worked. Please know what you are doing before trying things or this is what happens. CM7 doesnt work with that kernel, I think there is only one that does work with it.

Use at your own risk, overclock at your own risk - I'm not responsible for damage to your device​

The kernel used in this ROM is based on MDJ S9.2, and have ported it, and have patched to the latest upstream with the relevant fixes

The git is available here, check logs and diffs for the changes made. There is a neat build script to get it compiled for yourself if you want as well in Linux or cygwin. I am using the test branch at the moment.

Download kernel

Unzip archive

run script.sh (linux) or script.bat (windows) to copy over the kernel modules to your phone (make sure adb is in your path)

grab the initrd.gz from your current rom

then, either

reboot phone into fastboot by holding the back key

run "fastboot -c "" -b 0x11800000 flash:raw boot zImage initrd.gz"

or

make boot.img by using "mkbootimg --kernel zImage --ramdisk initrd.gz --cmdline "console=null" --base 0x11800000 -o boot.img"

adb push boot.img /sdcard/

adb shell flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img

reboot your phone

Download kernel

copy archive onto the FAT partition of your SD card

reboot phone into CWM

Select Install zip from sdcard

Select choose zip from sdcard

Select the kernel from the SD

Select Yes to install the zip

reboot your phone

my initrd (so has boot.img which will only work with cLK)

Added ppp specific stuff

Added 02recov, which allows to get ROM Manager working (works for me)

NOTE: The initrd may or may not work for everyone please report your problems with dmesg and logcat files

[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
what problems are you getting, any logcats or dmesg output
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zach.antre:
it was stuck in bootscreen, i will try to send later.

Till then you can check the GL_Core kernel thread that had same issue

he made a Kernel for Typhoon builds and a kernel for all others.

you can see the differencies

I have added the 0.5 kernel with wpa in OP, This is the only difference I see between my kernel and the GL kernel.

I haven't tested it, so not sure if it will work.

If you do test it, let me know how it goes.

thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zach.antre:
I'll test it know, give 5 minutes and i'll report back

updated kernel to

* Add reiserfs support

* Add NILFS support

* Add btrfs support
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mattfmartin:
Hey Arif, what exactly is reiserfs, nilfs, btrfs?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
they are all file systems, similar to ext2/3/4, but some people prefer these instead

plus this is the basis for the recovery kernel as well that is available on RM, so more I can support, the better
[HD2 Android NAND Development] lukedunk:
Hi Arif, thanks for all the good work!

1) Does this kernel work for GB, or only Froyo?

2) Does cLK version incorporate any of the new ppp wrapper stuff discussed in cedesmith's thread?

Thanks!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
1a) personally, haven't tested this in GB, so not sure. zach.antre tested it with one of the GB roms, and didn't quite work. I still need to do some testing, to see exactly what is different to make it work. (but you can still test if you want the challenge)

1b) This kernel is used as a basis for CWR that is on RM, so the fact it works there, and the basis there is GB, I would have thought that it would work with GB, but I could be wrong

2) No, as the wrapper is still beta at the moment (and several people are still having problems). Once we know that is working effectively with no problems, I will have no problems in adding it in.

Hi,i tryed this kernel with imilkas incredible s + clk and it gives me boot loops...what am i doing wrong?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] diesburg:
I get stuck on the first bootscreen when trying to use this. I am trying to find a kernel to get prj clean desire rom to boot and work successfully with cLK. I thought I had a kernel working at one time before but can't remember for sure. Any help would be awesome! I have tried several kernels with no success on booting prj's rom with cLK and from what I have tried and saw, this kernel seems like it would be my best chance. By the way, I got the rom to cLK by first installing it with magldr, then making a CWM backup, then restoring that backup after going back to cLK and then trying installing different kernels. The backup of the rom was made with magldr before any first boot and it was made with the same version of CWM in magldr as cLK has.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ChaosBoy:
Hi arif,

i see this kernel the first time and wonder, why is it not in your index of kernels (http://cyanogenmod.arif-ali.co.uk/kernels/).

Can i use it with your rom, or is it in beta an not stable?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
It was mainly for the froyo exploits that I was doing, which I have not really had time to continue. I havent tested it on GB rom, so not entirely sure that it will work. It is also the basis for the kernel used for the CWM/TWRP recoveries within the CyanogenMod repository for the Leo.

If enough people are interested, I may look at it again. Plus, I'm not really a developer, its more about hacking, and trying to get things working.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ChaosBoy:
okay, i will test it the next few days...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
I bricked my captivate last night. It is possible to recover a black-screen bricked Captivate with JTAG. I was reading about using JTAG and it seems that RIFF is the most supported option. Basically, you use JTAG as a special serial device where you can send data directly to the board. It's how they load it at the factory.

I want to come up with a way to unbrick a captivate, but I don't want to spend $150 on a RIFF. It seems like overkill for such a small job. You can make a JTAG connection with 4 resistors and a parallel cable. I don't have a parallel cable on my computer.

Here's a pinout.

You can make your own JTAG (see attached file )

While I don't have a parallel port, I do have an Arduino. It is possible to set it up as a JTAG with a small bit of code.

I keep getting this question.. where can I get the parts and how do I do this? Well, you will get the parts from this post and I don't have any good recommendations about an interface board.

I'm wondering what files do you send to the JTAG port? I suppose I'll find out soon enough. I purchased a spare phone today and I've got a development Captivate on the way. I will be attempting to pull the JTAG flash out of the phone if there isn't one available on-line somewhere.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shane87:
Hmm, I have never bricked my cappy (knock on wood, lol) and I have never messed with jtag. But I have read on this forum that you can make a simple jig with three one hundred ohm resistors that will boot the phone into download mode. Again, I haven't bricked my phone, so I am not sure if this would work with a black screen bricked phone, but it seems simple enough, and cheap enough, to test. Basically, you take three 100ohm resistots and wire them together. Then, you touch the leads to pin 4&5 of the micro usb connector. This is supposed to boot the phone into download mode. From there, you can hook your phone to your computer via usb and use odin or a similar tool to flash back to stock. Again, I am fairly new and have never tested this personally, so I don't know if it works at all, or if it will work with a black screen bricked phone. I hope this does help you out, though!

Right now I am focusing on the physical connection. JTAG is a well documented standard. These pins are stupidly small. I am trying to figure out something as far as some sort of non-solder connection. Like some sort of compression connector... that is the purpose of the measurements.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
does it need to be non soldered?

as for non solder i think a small piece of circuit board material with all the copper you dont want etched or milled away is the best way to manufacture it. you will either need to laser cut the mask and etch it or i can mill it and solder maybe magnet wire to it, or maybe a small ribbon cable if you know of a source for that.

i believe the op can figure out the computer end of it. the issue is getting 12 wires in an area that measures under 1/100th of a square inch. each conductor is about .008" that is the thickness of the thinnest string on a banjo!. that is if the banjo has light tension strings on it. a better reference is about the thickness of 1.5-3 human hairs (or sheets of paper) depending on what figure you are following, obviously the thickness of both hair and papper varies.

Hey it just donned on me! I used to be a laser welder. Worked on jewelry for Josten's. The size you are talking about is something I did all day.

The JTAG port has 12 connections. It has a pitch of .4mm, and a row spacing of ~.9mm-ish. I believe something like this may be appropriate.

However, I'm going to order several of these and find one which may be configurable as a non-solder connection

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
JTAG uses a paralell port. Serial will not work. I have a few USB>Serial adapters. I have a serial port on my desktop. Serial will not work for this.

The reason I am focusing on Arduino is because 1. I already have one. 2.They are cheap($20). 3. They can be repurposed in minutes from one task to the next. 4. They hook up with USB, so there is no need to install anything on the computer. 5. The next best thing would be RIFF JTAG and that costs $150+

Paralell would be easiest if you have one on your desktop already, but don't forget that you would also need a paralell cable to destroy for this and those cost $10 usually. Then when you finish, you cannot use the cable again. With an arduino, you can repurpose it for another project.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
I would like to try non-solder because that would mean cleaner work. Once you add solder to the project, Samsung and/or AT&T service center can tell that someone has done unprofessional work. I'm trying to keep it as stock as possible..... I'm thinking it may be possible to somehow make a jig setup with a few standardized components for others to reproduce.... Like say.... 'use "this" connector and glue a 1/4watt resistor to the corner then strap a rubber band over the top.. Now your connection is positioned properly.'

Basically, we need something that will strap, or sit on the unit without altering it and be fully reproducable by anyone with a bit of technical knowledge.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
understood. if you dont find anything i think i can fabricate something but it's not something i can tell others how to do unless they have precision tool. i guess that will be a last resort.
