qtotter,

Thanks very much for this info. After spends tens of hours and tens of rebuilds and settings changes, I just tried this new connection, and it WORKED.

I am now on the warpath - I bought this phone for business email use. If I can't even synchronise with an Exchange server at a reasonable rate, then it's completely useless to me.

Don't worry if you feel a couple of earthquakes over the next couple of hours, they're just the phone calls I am making to Softbank.

I wonder how much this vodafone@connect service costs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
softbank has a special data connection rate.

http://mb.softbank.jp/mb/en/price_plan/connect_card/index.html

i use to use the most expensive plan (with a two-year discount) including free 427MB packets. the tricky thing is this contract is only for data connection, which means you cannot use the phone as a phone with this contract (sim.)

this is like a catch-22. unlimited access of restricted connection with phone functions or pay-by-packet access of unrestricted connection without phone functions.

Other question, I using the softbank rom setings and the setings originally in jam, may I dellete some itens of ext rom? like australia and europe setings? or is better do not do this

@adrianomm: Yes, but for the unlocker use the "special" softbank x01ht I pointed you, which should work in bootloader 1.06....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] adrianomm:
Thanks a lot dude

I will try and I will post here if work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
ok, i'm waiting to see the results :-)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] adrianomm:
Not work pof

I tried a lot and I got the same error here

This steps work fine.

Install Instructions:

1. Enter bootloader mode on your Phone. To do this, simultaneously hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus.

[You should see SPL-1.04 on the top of the tri-color screen, if you see SPL-1.06 this unlocker will not work, please wait for the next version]

2. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead.

3. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe program ñ this will reflash your phone with a patched radio ROM required to unlock.

4. Wait patiently.

5. Once the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe upgrade completes, it will end up saying "Upgrade Error 114", but the patched radio ROM will be flashed anyway, dont worry about that error!

6. Soft reset with stylus (Device will not be hard reset and no data will be lost)

7. Allow your phone to reboot. Once it has, connect to your PC using Activesync, and copy the HERM_Unlock_v2.exe program onto your phone. Alternatively, copy it to an SD card and insert into your phone.

8. Run HERM_Unlock_v2.exe on your phone. Wait about 1 minute.

9. You should see a "SUCCESS!" message from HERM_Unlock_v2.exe, after that soft reset your phone.

10. Process is (hopefully) complete!

But when I tried to install this

Flash with an English ROM

Here's the post that I followed: http://xdaforums.com/show...=280566&page=7

Here's the ROM for JASJAM_WWE_1.20.305.3_1.20.305.104_1.07.03.10_ship

Note: the ROMs and the ExtendedROMs are not the same. The Flash will take about 30 mins. It will reset when done, and then ask you to align the screen. I just did as I was told. when done, it automatically started to load the included ExtendedROMs.

Unhide Extended ROM folder

The software show me a error.

First the software show me a screen with this message

Current information about PDA Phone

Then I click the button "Update" and show me this message

Verify that yo want to update the ROM version:

From: Image Version: 1.33.761.3

To: Image Version: 1.20.305.4

Then I click "Next"

Then the phone go to the tri-color screen, go to gray with the message

After the software on the computer show me the message:

Hi

The Wiki says:

Have you tried it ? Is your bootloader v 1.04 ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] adrianomm:
No , my bootloader is v1.06

I can't find the link to downgrade to 1.04, the link to download the file don't work.

Pof told to try use this file instead the dowgrade software

HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v2_Softbank_X01HT-EXPERIMENTAL.zip

And yes , i tried 2~5 times

And I got the same error.

Maybe the ROM is wrong ?

This is the correct ROM for bootloader 1.06 ?

JASJAM_WWE_1.20.305.3_1.20.305.104_1.07.03.10_ship.exe

If is not can someone give the correct ROM link to my phone

And if I really need to downgrade to 1.04 , please, can someone send me the software for my e-mail?

Now I am researching an alternative method to downgrade bootloader to 1.04 for those of you who are on 1.06 and don't have a rom matching your cid available. There's nothing else I can do to help you downgrade now, but I will publish it as soon as there is a solution.

Keyboard layout keeps switching back?

Hi all,

Has anyone had the experience of having the keyboard layout keep switching back to English after doing the registry switch to Japanese? Every time I do a reset it switches back to English.

Does anyone know enough about the startup sequence of WM5 so that I can figure out where/why this is happening?

Thanks,

- awh
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
meaning hard-reset or soft-reset by "reset" above?

if you meant hard-reset, it's normal. make a registry file and use a registry editor to upload it to make the process easier.

if you meant soft-rest by reset button, your modification has not been saved in the memory yet. turn off your phone to save the cache before you perform soft-reset or simply use a program to reboot your device instead of using the reset buttun on the bottom unless your device is hung.

it would be nice if the wm5.0 cache thing were covered in the wiki since smartphone and wm5.0 are newly introduced to japan recently and finally, and i am sure there are many people who do not know this sort of thing here in japan.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] awh_tokyo:
Thanks, qtotter, that did the trick. Feel like an idiot after having spent an hour or so working on that problem. Now it stays in Japanese layout just fine...

Yeah... In my case this is my first experience with a smart phone at all, and I don't have a whole lot of PocketPC experience in general. The role of "phone figure-outer" has been dropped in my lap as one of the only techies in a circle of acquaintances that mostly includes expat bankers... :-) Been doing pretty well so far, got a tunnel set up for doing Yahoo, MSN, etc.. Have been in English for a few days already. But still some things that seem obvious to long-time CE users are confusing to this long-time unix geek...

One more question...

This doesn't really have anything to do with switching the X01HT from Japanese to English, but figured someone in here might have encountered the same thing before.

A phone like this can be used in many places in the world, so ideally I'd like to have contacts saved with a phone number in international format... So for example +81908803xxxx would be my cel phone number. Then one easy setting in the phone (that I would change whenever I go to another country or whatever) could tell it which country code I'm in (so "automatically replace +81 with 0" when I'm in Japan...). Also, when I *am* calling other countries from Japan, the + should automatically be converted into whatever string of numbers I have to dial to make an international call.

I've fiddled around with it but not had any luck finding the settings. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm using a stock htc ROM...

Thanks

I can't tell you an exact date, last monday I modified gnuharet and I can now jump to IPL in RAM which loads SPL from ROM and jumps into it. This means I can go now from WinCE to Bootloader currently on the device, not really useful if you have 1.06, but this is the 1st step that has to be done.

Now, I need to code the part that puts SPL version 1.04 into RAM and change the jumping address to SPL at 0x30000000. This will make the device go from WinCE to bootloader 1.04, and then you can flash any rom. I will start this part probably on saturday... then probably will do some "cosmetic" changes to make interface nicer, and code cleanup to publish it under GPL license as I'm using haret code which is also GPL.

The good news is that a friend here is also working on this with me (can't say his name until he confirms he wants to be public), and he managed to modify SPL to not check the signature :D :D so if he's available during the weekend we might have a fun coding session :)

Always with 1.06

If you buy imei-check unlocker it will downgrade your bootloader to 1.04, if you don't buy it won't do anything useful. The NBH extracted which allowed to downgrade to 1.04 without buying the key is no longer available.

Hello Guys!

My Softbank X01HT is complete english now!!

Thanks a lot for who make this possible!!

My phone work very fine. Softbank internet, wireless and phone.

Only the keyboard is not right. The blue keys is not correct when i press.

"@" key is "?"

"!" key is "@"

"-" kyes is ":" and so far.

This step below can fix it ?

But I don't understand these steps.

The file "Locale" don't exist in this directory

I need to create? If yes. What type ?

Registry Editor give this types of new file

Key

String Value

Multi Line String Value

Binary Value

DWORD Value

The others lines below i need to create new files or edit ?

What the word (Hex) in the end of the file means ?

Please , someone can make a easy step by step ?

Another thing

The phone work fine but 2~3 times per day the phone give this alert message

"Pocket PC Networking

Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address.

Try again later or enter an IP address in network settings"

Why and how I can fix this ? Where and what IP address i need to assign ?

Please help me guys. I am really newbie whit Pocket PC and this crack thing :)

Thanks a lot
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] harryk1372:
adrianomm,

i think you can skip this key and don't create it. i didn't create this key but my keyboard is mapped correctly.

just edit the keys and change the values to the above from 409 to 411.

Hex means Hexadecimal. i don't know which registry editor you are using but when you tap the key

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty] "Layout"= 20411 (Hex)

to edit it, the editing screen will open letting you to change the "Value Name" and "Value Data". it will also show the options of "Binary", "Decimal" and "Hexadecimal" for the "Value Base". choose "Hexadecimal" and change the value data from 20409 to 20411. the other two keys

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload] "Default"= e0010411

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1] "Default"= e0010411

will not have the options of "Binary", "Decimal" and "Hexadecimal" for the "Value Base" and you just change the value data from e0010409 to e0010411.

i don't get this error with my x01ht and don't know the answer for you. probably you get this when the signal gets weak and your device cannot connect to the provider to get the IP assigned by DHCP server.

otoro_315,

you run RUU.exe on the PC, don't run it on your device. you may want to check this page and refer to the upgrading part to get more details.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] adrianomm:
Thanks a lot Man!!!

I have changed the value and not work . I no have changed the Dec to Hex.

Now I fix it and my keyboard is perfect.

One last question

I am brazilian and i use a lot of this key ( é, ç, ã ê )

You know how I can use this keys in the hardware keyboard ? I know I can use the onscreen keyboard but is more fast if i can use the hardware keyboard.

The HTC HERM200 Europe type Manual say

"To type accented characters (like á, ã, ç, etc) press the letter key first and then, hold (square blue button) and at the same time press the space bar serveral time until you find the correct character you need."

But I tried and don't work. You have any ideia ?

Thanks again

Regards
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] harryk1372:
sorry but i have no idea how to do that with the Japanese keyboard. you should be able to do that by changing the 411 entries you done to whatever european type code but that will again screw the character mapping. you may want to raise that question as a new separate post.

first of all, if you burn a rom, everything in memory will be initialized. secondly, if you burn a rom from another company (e.g. english roms) yourself, your warranty of the phone will become invalid, and softbank will no longer take care of your phone.

if you read japanese, i would recommend you transfer all the numbers to x01ht at the softbank branch if possible (i am not sure since it is a different kind of phone... and not sure s/b provides that kind of service in the first place...), back up the numbers in contacts into sim (you might be able to ask s/b to do that for you.), come back home, burn a rom, and restore the numbers from sim to contacts.

there is a system at softbank shibuya 2F that allows you to take your docomo phone and transfer the numbers to your softbank phone.
