either redownload the RAR file or download the attached ROMBaker.exe and overwrite the old

Nice Work Olipro.

Would It Be Possible For You To Write A Quick Walkthrough On How To Use Your ROMBaker Tool?

Thanks OLIPRO, great job man.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wpbear:
The new RomBaker still bad for me. The NBHextract opens a quick DOS box then immediately closes, no extraction.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:

Cingular WWE Custom

Did you use this for your current install? What is the HTC_BOOT version?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wpbear:
Yes this is my current install. It is Radio BL 108, but it shouldnt matter since we can make standalone radio only upgrades now.

Radio Only NBH Upgrades:

1.27

1.33

1.34

EDIT: These all have the modified RUU, meaning it uses SSPL as the bootloader.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
get the RUU v2 RAR off the FTP server, bake your own ROM with whatever you want.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] lokmeup:
In no way do I want to ask a redundant question, but I also do not want to "accidentally" load Radio BL 108.

So, let me know if I understand the obvious correctly, the "Radio Only NBH Upgrades" will in no way alter the Radio BL or upgrade to the dreaded Radio BL 1.08?

Thanks for the clarification!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wpbear:
The Radio Bl will be 108 with any Radio ROM above 1.27, but it isnt DREADED anymore. The problem was that we could not do radio only upgrades for a short period of time. That has changed now with SSPL and additionally easier with the ROMBaker as well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
wrong, if they are versions that have 1.08 it WILL be flashed on.

now, as an additional point: as of *now* having Radio BL 1.08 will *ONLY* stop you accessing rtask from mtty.

if you don't need to use mtty then you can flash and happily downgrade whenever you like; but the bootloader won't downgrade

@ WPBear

Hello,

i have a question about your custom RUU with Radio 1.34.00.10 and ROM 2.06.502.3.

Is it right, that it is selfmade from the two RUU´s 2.05.255.1 and 2.06.502.3?

I ask, because i would use it. Now i have ROM 2.05.255.1, Date 01/17/07, Radio 1.34.00.10, Protokoll 32.67.7020.10H, ExtRom 2.05.255.101 and Herm200 IPL-1.01, Herm200 MFG SPL-1.01.

Is it good? I hope, i can installed your RUU.

And please excause my english. But it is a long long time ago, that i have learned it at school. So i hope you can understood, what i mean.

Thank you very much and with best regards says Christian (Otto is my turtle, hahaha)

1) The RUU updater can be used with ROMs for other HTC devices (e.g. wizard)?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wpbear:
I used the Rado from the WWE test ROM (1.34) and the OS and Ext_ROM from the Cingular Test ROM. I changed the SPL to 1.04

It works good. I also posted on the Wiki and I made the same with Radio 1.27 for those who want the older radio too. All the links are on the Wiki now.

I created a Trinity 1.35.00.11 radio only RUU in about 5 minutes with this slick tool.....

:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
that's another thing, the GUI is configured to set the ExtROM address for Hermes, which will (non-permanently) brick a Trinity if you do flash it.

if there's demand, I can reconfigure it trivially to implement something silly like a checkbox to put it in Trinity mode.

Similarly, if someone can send me a Trinity RUU, I'll fart around with the UI to customise it... although that's mainly for eye-candy purposes ;)

Update

Trinity Edition released; go to that forum for it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] DotNetDev:
Can you run the SSPL Integrated RUU in Vista RTM?

I would like to upgrade to this 1.35.00.11 radio but i'm in vista. I read the thread on the vista workaround, with loading the activesync4 driver instead of using the default one, but it involves booting the phone in bootloader mode. The first step of this installer explicitly says not to put it in bootloader mode before running the RUU.

Has anyone found a workaround which allows running this SSPL integrated RUU in Vista RTM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wpbear:
There are two drivers that Windows uses depending on if you are in BL mode or OS mode. If you overwrite BOTH the drivers in Vista with the old drivers then it should work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] DotNetDev:
Ok ,that makes sense. However i was just worried about the note in the RUU that said "do NOT" put your device in bootloader mode first. I was curious if this is just because if it is in bootloader mode then the SSPL could not load and reboot the device with Des's bootloader., or if it will actually do harm to the device. If it just doesn't do the SSPL stuff then thats fine for me because i have SPL 1.04 and HTC_BOOT 1.07 so I don't believe i need the help of the SSPL loaded bootloader to flash to this radio rom.

It sounds like this is still a gray area though, so i'll go ahead and wait till tomorrow and flash the radio only update at work on a XP box.

Thanks for the input.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
you have a choice; either get it working so that the Bootloader is deployed to your phone; you can't possibly harm your phone seeing if this works since after it deploys the bootloader, the second stage which would need to work regardless is deployed.

if you're really paranoid you could run SSPL yourself and go through with the RUU, but as I say, you can safely give it a try.

Backup current ROM

Hello,

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeFAQ#Q9

says that it is not possible to put back a dumped ROM on your device. But if I understand correctly, it now should be possible with this new tool. Or isn't? :confused:

If so, than I can make a backup of mij Dutch T-Mobile Rom (there are no official ROM updates yet:( ).

I hope that this works! :D

Thanks for the answer.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] roqin:

Anyway I have ExtROM 2.05.263.101 and no 2.05.262.101 as stated on Wiki page regarding swdish AKU 3.3. Maybe it should be corected?

KR
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] masterchiefobi:
I seem to have answered my own question. This is maybe a bit off topic but.

(I think) I have managed to dump my Vario II rom with the instructions on the wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom)

There is only one big question mark. The value in the wiki don’t match my value’s. The off-set is different (as of part02).

I thought I had document my steps, but I can’t find my notes anymore. Anyway this is the method I used:

-	read wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom

-	Step 11: In my case I also had to use the x800 trick to complete the dump.

Changed the offset with your matching values.

In the wiki, the file size is 39.911.424 (0x2610000 in hex).

My file is 54.067.200 (0x2290000 in hex)

-	Follow the wiki…. With the changed offset

-	Now you have a “part02.raw” file. I think this is a ‘normal’ nb file. Because I can extract it, or us it in rombaker.exe

But….. I’am not 100% sure if I want to use this nb file, because of the different size values I got. So if I must and/or dare, try it your self! And use al the cooking tools on your dumped rom.

(by the way, this only seems to be the OS Rom).

Great work of all the XDA developers! Where do you find the time to sort this out. I imaging your wife’s, bosses or pets are very glad with your efforts. I’am sure, I’am!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
This is not a raw OS.nb, don't flash it or you'll get bad blocks on your NAND as it is not correctly formatted.

The wiki is not 100% accurate, this is the "standard" answer, but actually only one person has been able to flash back a dumped rom to a device, and he has not been able to reproduce it (he's working on it right now), read more here: ROM Reconstruction possible!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neokazaki:
Hi,

I received the Lollipop OTA last night. I installed the Update and the phone was working "ok" today. As it seemed to be a bit slow (for example the animations and the response to touch input), I thought about doing a factory reset tonight to set up the system from scratch on.

After backup of all my data, I selected "Factory reset" from the settings menu. The phone turned off and started to delete all data after I had entered my locksreen pattern. Now the problems started:

1) After around 5 minutes of erasing data, the process stopped and the screen showed the android figure with the red exclamation mark.

2) I restarted the phone by pressing the On/Off Button --> Deleting of files continues again. The phone is now deleting files for around 45 minutes, but nothing happens.

Is this normal? I am a bit scared that I am stuck in some king of "erase loop". As I need my phone in a few hours, I would be happy if someone could help me.

Some more information if needed:

- OTA to Android 5 from 4.4.4

- German Nexus 5 bought on Google Play

- Phone was never rooted

Thank you in advance for your help!

I'm surprised there seems to be very little talk in the s5 forum regarding getting the best sound quality from the s5.

It seems very strange that in the main settings section it just has soundalive or musicFX under music, but with no control over what it does!? no global EQ?

The only place I can see anything is samsungs own music player app which I don't want to use. ( Rocket player is much better)

1.5.8 RemoteAmp 2.0

A pretty capable client - as long as you don't need WMP support.

Also see this thread and this 3.0 betatest announcement.

1.5.9 1-2-Remote by SFR Software 1.1.0

This title is one of my recommended picks because of its being snappy, nice-looking, supporting remote playlist editing and lyrics display.

There's a German language review here.

1.5.10 AwoX Media CTRL for Pocket PC 1.1

This is one of the titles I recommend the least because of its high price, restricted capabilities and, last but not least, the developer's not supporting it any more: the Media CTRL homepage of AwoX doesn’t list the PPC version anywhere and the last, 1.1 version was released in 2004.

Note that, should you REALLY want to buy it (I, again, don't recommend it!), you can get if for much cheaper at Expansys.

1.5.11 A&A Computer Services’ PPC Tablet Remote Control Suite 4.0

This is a pretty unique title in that it not only supports "plain" multimedia control, but also (pretty bad - see the already-linked Remote Desktop Control Bible) remote desktop control and support for many other desktop applications, in addition to using the PDA touchscreen as an input tablet / mouse for the desktop.

Unfortunately, as far as strictly multimedia control is concerned, it does have its share of problems (for example, the lack of seeking or any kind of local feedback); this is why I can't recommend it for strictly multimedia control, only if you do need its other capabilities and features (most importantly, the really unique tablet capabilities - again, its desktop controlling module is far from perfect.)

1.5.12 jaylee.org’s Bluetooth Remote Control for Windows Mobile 0.6.0

(Other screenshots: finding devices 1 2)

This free application is unique in that it relies on (strictly) native Bluetooth connections, with all its advantages and disadvantages. This means if both your Windows Mobile device and your desktop uses the Microsoft BT stack AND the restrictions of Bluetooth (for example, the limited range) aren't a problem, you may definitely want to give this title a try.

Note that \Program Files\ Orion\ Bluetooth Remote Control\ BTRemoteServer.exe must be manually started on the desktop in order to start the server.
[General Topics] leepriestenator:
Excellent article as usual Menneisys. Even though I knew about most of these, it was quite refreshing to see them reviewed again.

On another note, is there any PPC app that can basically do 2 things via a Non-Web Interface

1) Search a Remote Computer

2) Browse using a Remote File System (Like the PPC Tablet)

and show hidden and system files and also resort files and folders to display the folders at the top of the list?
[General Topics] DoctorT:
valuable information! :) but you forgot one important thing - memory and CPU usage on the PPC! I don't care at all on my desktop with 3Ghz CPU, 4GB RAM and 500GB HD, but on my PPC with 0.016 times the RAM and 0.00025 times the "HD" size and a CPU slower than the keyboard controller of my desktop... ;)
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
See "CPU usage on client while active" - it "only" lists the CPU usage in %, which is, IMHO, the most important when you run an app in the foreground for, in times, several hours. (This is why I haven't measured the memory usage - I haven't ever run into "shortage of memory" situations on my test devices.)
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
UPDATE (03/08/2007):

there is a new, beta version of 0.7.0 of the jaylee.org’s Bluetooth Remote Control for Windows Mobile. It, for example, now supports the desktop-side Widcomm BT stack, which is GREAT news!

AirTunes! has turned out to be still supported and having a Web page at http://www.airtunessoftware.com . I'm still awaiting answer to my questions from the developers (if you are one of them, please make sure you read them either in your Webmail mailbox or on my blog as comments); as soon as I get the new version working (so far, I haven't managed to on neither of my desktop PC's), I post a revised review.
[General Topics] V J:
Nice summary! But I miss Pebbles.

The software for Windows Mobile has two program files: RemoteCommander and Shortcutter.

While the software isn't very graphically advanced, it allows for a number of interesting control objects: in Shortcutter you can create sliders, rotary buttons, a gesture pad and even a mouse pad.

There is however no interactivity (it only sends keys/commands, it doesn't display information) with the application.

But if all you need is a (free) simple remote control, it really is worth checking out.
