[One (M7) General] david279:
Go try one and let us know
[One (M7) General] DruoGaby:
but is there a code to tell if its locked or not?
[One (M7) General] david279:
Pop in a sim and it should work. Well you gotta set the phone to gsm.
[One (M7) General] DruoGaby:
so it will work with a att sim then,,lol and i lost the damn sim..im lookin for it
[One (M7) General] mjskraju:
It shouldn't catch the AT&T signal(any US network provider for that matter), but if you put the At&t sim in that, it shouldn't show Sim-Lock Enabled message, if you are unlocked. So, If you are not getting Sim-Lock Enabled message when you insert any GSM sim(whether you are able to latch the signal of it or not), you are truly unlocked.

My bad sorry about that.

Anyone?

I'm in need of a box ASAP as I need the phone.

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jamesc760:
Your best bet is to send your bricked phone to mobiletechvideos.

Just buying a riff box wont magically fix your phone. You have to learn how to connect your phone to the box, how to interface with the computer, unless you know what you are doing, the riff box is as useful ss a boat anchor.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droideastcoast:
Thanks for the reply I know how to follow info

Also going to get the Jtag adapter that's made for the

One in Eastern Canada to get one so I could provide services here.

So any good place to get the box? Are the 2 that I posted reliable?

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] droideastcoast:
Wow thanks guys for the help.

I thought asking on a site like this I would get an a fast answer since this is a site to ask a question like I have asked.

But guess I was wrong since I have yet to get an answer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Murrda:
Hopefully not to late!

This may be a tad bit ti late, but yes the sites you suggested are reliable riffbox vendors. My best suggestion would be to visit the official site (riffbox dot org) as they post all of their officially supported vendors there. I myself have been looking for one as well and researched it for sometime and came across early on the primary site. After browsing through the list those 2 that you posted are indeed there. Good luck and hopefully this answered your question.

Don't take your anger out on the actual XDA site, not all questions stand out right away where users are caught by the title and or may or may not have enough knowledge to answer every question that is being asked.

Remember that XDA nor myself can be held responsible for anything that may go wrong by any means of a bad transaction or making a decision soley based on a response from any user here. Take what is said as a suggestion and may be good to use Google as it can be very useful to find information the way I did prior to coming across this question!

Good Luck!!!

P.S. If you end up purchasing one or have done so already post your results on how everything worked out and if at all possible help others as we have tried to help you! I personally would love to hear the results!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] outz:
The Extended ROM is just a collection of applications and patches that the provider included with the phone... for instance, the O2 Ext. ROM includes a PDF/Power point viewer .cab in theirs that I-Mate doesn't include with the PDA2k Ext. ROM. The naming convention of these .cabs makes it semi-difficult to find out what each .cab does without testing it. To install a .cab, simply copy it over to your phone, browse to its location and tap on it. I would recommend doing a backup, as you can't really uninstall a lot of these .cabs.

XDA For Dummies?

Here is the problem I have...there is a LOT of info here, for which I am VERY grateful; but there seems to be an assumption that everyone here knows all this stuff already. And I will be the first to admit, I DON'T!!!

I have the updated extended rom files, and I am being told to put them on the handheld, and run the cab files. Well, the updated rom files contain more than cab files! Where do I put htem, and which ones where?

Is there a "XDA FOR DUMMIES" guide somewhere? I would really like to update my unit, but I don't understand WHERE the files need to go...

Here is the file list from the SX66 Update:

AddContacts.exe

AutoRun.exe

BA_Album_WWE.CAB

Button.CAB

CallerID.CAB

Cin_inbox_ap.CAB

Cingularsplash.cab

Cingularcustomize.cab

Config.txt

Enable_GPRS.CAB

getmail.CAB

JAVA_WWE.CAB

MEdiaNet.CAB

MIDI561.CAB

MMS_WWE.CAB

RestartRadio.exe

StartServices.CAB

TPDisable.exe

TPEnable.exe

version.CAB

WLANPatch.CAB

Exactly where do I put them, how do I put them there, and how do I do the update?

Please forgive me for being a bit obtuse, but I was not born knowing all this stuff :D , and I cannot find the info anywhere! IS THERE A STEP BY STEP GUIDE FOR DOING THIS KIND OF THING?

Hell, I would make a $25 USD donatin to the forum if we could get some kind of "dummies guide"...

Many thanks for your time, and I hope, some assistance!

No clue............

I don't get how to install these either.

The custom 9th button assignment one is cool! (for the "E" button the bottom of the keyboard)

Most of these CAB files complain that it's not in ROM in \Windows etc (yes/no/cancel)

How do we allow the CAB files to write to protected ROM?

I've searched this forum and cant find a description on these extended roms either. It's not fun to install stuff in trial and error mode. (anyone care to give a quick breakdown or add a text file to the zip file?)

Extended ROMs for Dummies (The books,so no insults intended)

Aloha

Maybe I am feeling sorry for all of the new people who have been lucky enough to stumble onto this site. This site started as a developer site as we took apart the early HTC products to see what made them tick. Here is a quick overview of the extended rom.

Your phone is made up of three rom files. (radio, OS, and extended) The OS and radio ROMs make up the guts of the phone, but the extended ROM is where your provider or reseller (Cingular, O2,T-mobile, Imate) places custom software that differentiates themselves.

This extended rom contains a number of CAB files that usually auto install after a hard reset. You can see them by searching for the Extended_rom unlock tool on this site. Once you unlock this area of your device, you will see a new Extended_storage area. Place the files you like from the downloaded roms. There are great features to pick and choose from such as modified phone applications, ring tones, PDF and PPS viewers ect.

You can click on any of the cabs or modify the config.txt to install the programs. Since many of the programs are similar and probably already installed, you may get an error about the file being locked in ROM.

I hope this helps.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] s4czech:
step by step draft................

Perfect.......... thanks/sweet I'm on my way to learning more good stuff then. I assume that I can then do a hard reset, and the rom's I've picked will install. (is it possible to install them without a hard reset?)

so let me try to break this down.

(we really need a sticky for this maybe)

1) use Extended_rom unlock tool (find it by searching this site)

2) see new folder in explorer called Extended storage

3) add remove cab files there to your liking.

4) modify config.txt file to reflect the new install batch process

5) hard reset the phone and let the new cab files auto install

Is this close/right? When should I expect the error about the file being locked in ROM to happen? Does the Extended_rom unlock tool work on the iPAQ 6315 too? I'll search/tinker but I thought I"d ask while I'm on a roll here.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] superperry:
Re: step by step draft................

Correct! and DON'T FORGET TO LOCK your extended_ROM again before doing hard reset other wise all the CAB files will be gone.

Step using ExtendedROM unlocker: (Risk is all yours!)

1)Unhide then Soft reset

2)Unlock then add/remove files to your liking; configure the config.txt

3)Lock (this is important or else CAB files are deleted automaticaly after installation)

4)Then Hard Reset your device. OR you can manually execute each CAB file on Extended_ROM without hard reset.

Good Luck! (Did I forget anything else?)

Oh! Extended_ROM unlocker not working properly on HP6315/35 I tried it before, cause me a Hard reset everytime I try.

@trvlr72

Sweet post thanks for the info

For our better understanding the upgrade tool (xda3nbftool.exe) uses three files as you mentioned (radio, OS, and extendedRom )

1) on an extracted ship file Which file names are which

ms_.nbf

nk.ndf

radio_.nbf

2) Can one extract the extended rom from a ndf file with out performing an upgrade and if so how

3) Can you confirm that the Radio is NOT language related and thus a raido_.ndf from WWE can be substituted for a GRE upgrade.

4) Would you edit your post with this informattion so that it can be used as a reference, please that is.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
Do you know in which of this three files (ms, nk, or radio) is found the simlock? maybe in the extended rom (ms) because it depends on the provider? Thanks.

Hello, I have an s2 and the battery life sucks, I am just wondering if it is normal or because I have a nova launcher skin with 2 or 3 small widgets. The battery depletes everyday. I wake up in the morning grab it and it starts at 100%, I check my email for 1 minute... still 100% then I quit the app in the task manager, then put it to sleep with no running apps. By the end of the school day (7:30 - 2:30) the phone is completely dead... Any suggestions?

Try deleting unwanted apps, lowering you're brightness, turning of WiFi and Bluetooth when unnecessary, and regularly killing unwanted applications. If you are rooted, change your voltage.

Hi there,

as this phone isn't available outside of the US I guess it's convenient for us importers to have some keyboard layouts to choose from. I just made a german one - I've made a list with those layouts which were already mentioned somewhere in this forum.

German Layout

Download keypad files here

My changes:
- AT is now the Umlaut special character (eg. press AT, then 'a' to get 'ä')
- AT is bound to the EMAIL key (EMAIL + A/U/O for umlauts works pretty well)
- SEARCH is bound to the CONTACTS key
- ALT is also bound to the VOICESEARCH key
- Y is Z; Z is Y
- ALT + B will now result in 'ß'

I just got used to two ALT buttons (coming from the DZ/G2). The SEARCH button is used in some apps, but not very often.. I like to have it on my keyboard, thus binding it to the CONTACTS key (I use search+'x' for certain shortcuts).

Nordic layout

jarrodlombardo's layout (Double ALT+@+DPAD_CENTER)

orange808's layout (multiple SEARCH keys)

How to

(you need to mount the system partition as R/W to overwrite those files)

sec_keypad.kcm goes to /system/usr/keychars

sec_keypad.lk goes to /system/usr/keylayout

As written by dillalade in his post about keylayouts. Thanks to Nocturin for creating his information portal - which brought me there.

Feel free to upload your layout files / describe your changes - I'll add them to the list. They don't have to be language specific.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Kueber:
Sure, since you can use normal keyboards with your android device there has to be some CTRL function - though I don't know why you'd want CTRL keys. There are some shortcuts in android which use CTRL similar to those windows has.. but I can't think of any other uses.

You just have to bind LEFT_CONTROL or RIGHT_CONTROL (in sec_keypad.kl) to any key you want. Haven't tested that though.
