[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remmyhi:
I have just updated my n7 to Slim rom 5.0.1.

I have been frustrated by not being able to read a simple email using gmail application. Lags, lags, and "gmail is not responding do you want to close it"

I need to have two accounts for me and my wife, so the performance was even more slow.

Now with f2fs it is a rocket. I have installed every toolvI wanted and now also the Godfire game, and I must admit that it was a hit.

So thank you google to slow our machines to force buying the new ones, but my nexus7 from 2012 acts lighning fast now.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] throcker:
ok....I have to format on f2fs....that's the only way....

than...con you tell me how to do that? and also, I want to flash stock lollipop, no custom roms...

I read some but guides were outdated...and, FYI I am very experienced on flashing, so I will not take you much time :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remmyhi:
Not sure if stock can be ran on f2fs.

I installed slim rom and itis close to aosp.

Instruction is provided in the rom thread.

I am no very experienced and I handled without problems.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] throcker:
wait. are you running kk?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remmyhi:
Nope. Lollipop.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConstantineTheGreat:
Slim f2fs on lollipop?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] throcker:
Have you got it? I'm not sure I want to keep lp on that tablet....how is it?

Even on my m8 lp performs bad, considering that is stock and my phone was on the top of benchmarks before nex 6 and 9 came out..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConstantineTheGreat:
No, I don't have it. I just asked is there slim lollipop on f2fs, because I tried rastapop and SleamFreak which are on 5.0 and have f2fs support, but I had problems like rebooting, problem with installing new apps, etc.

So for now, till I get answer from user emmyhi, I back to slimkat KK which run fantastic on our Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cosmickamal:
SlimPop (f2fs) by Freak is great. very fast. :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConstantineTheGreat:
Yes, I can agree with you that is really fast, but I had a problem with gapps (downloaded one's give in thread) and I couldn't install Google play store (it wasn't installed with gapps???)

I couldn't resolve my problem with that, and also, even I did clean install I haven't got screen like I first time use this rom. I haven't got possibility to chose language, and everything else. Rom just moved me to homescreen. Maybe this is not for this thread, but, I'll wait some other version of slim on 5.0.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cosmickamal:
Did you try SlimGapps Normal one from the op link. That worked fine for me. You first flash the Rom. Boot. Go to recovery again. than flash Gapps. Boot. You will get the initialisation screen.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] throcker:
too much beta, I can't take my gf's tablet everytime she has a problem ahahah

I will try an evening every factory image and a kk f2fs rom to see which one performs better...then I'll let you know!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riggerman0421:
I'm running stock rooted 4.4.4 kitkat on mine with Lean Kernel 4.1. No lag, no issues with apps not working like on 5.0. Good battery life ,watched over 5 hours of movies last night and still had 49% left from a full charge. Standby time is excellent, I've only lost 2% over the last 9 hours.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] throcker:
that stock one with f2fs?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riggerman0421:
No, not here. Pure stock, rooted 4.4.4 KitKat. Removed a few Google apps I don't use, but still ext4. Lean Kennel really make a difference.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] throcker:
and....after a flashing afternoon....

4.2.2 stock was damn fast....

4.3 stock was even faster and smoother than 4.2.2

4.4 was worse......got better with lean kernel, but wasn't just fast and responsive enough.

the winner is....4.3......that's what I left on my gf's tablet....

everything runs good, apps opening instantly, look much 2013 but google launcher and google keyboard help...

this is my suggestion after my tests. good luck and hope next LP ota will fix some performance issues, not only on this one but for every phone which got slower with this update

do you install super cid on the device?
[HTC Tornado] SGregory:
Snappy, is this ROM with crossbow (WM6)??
[HTC Tornado] quite98:
Snappy

I think you need to use the technique described in post#33 of this thread.

Keith
[HTC Tornado] greatbal:
i second that. would this "very new rom" be... :p
[HTC Tornado] madds:
here's a quote of the post:

"Here is how I got the rom to install without the devauth error.

1) use a hex editor on the rom file and search for the devauth.exe string e.g. 44 00 65 00 76 00 41 00

2) between the "devauth" and the "exe" you will see the hex "00 2e".

3) swap these bytes around so they are "2e 00" instead of "00 2e".

4) This will keep te same checksum but will not allow the devauth.exe to run. well it work in my case at least"

Hope it works
[HTC Tornado] madds:
thinking better this aplies to the windows mobile 5 rom that leaked for the typhoon.

maybe crossbow (in case this new rom is indeed crossbow) has a different protection
[HTC Tornado] SHiSH:
please make screenshot from about in settings
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
That color scheme seems to be... CROSBOW!! isn´t it? (Please, don´t tell us that it´s a downloaded homescreen...) :D
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
looks like crossbow

snappy, you have a PM

if you send me the dumped file, i can arrange for it to be converted into a flashable format for you and the masses

so please forward a copy of the dumped file!

thanx
[HTC Tornado] SHiSH:
is this german rom or english?
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
thats not really a problem, it being german or english. that can quite easily be rectified (i hope) by changing the language/locality files with another from an english version of the smartphone rom, that sort of stuff ought to be generic

if it is crossbow.............................w00tage!
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
I think every ROM has english language.

Come on Snappy, give us more details!!
[HTC Tornado] quite98:
Snappy,

You need an SD card-reader, then you can

- use the psdread tool to dump the SD card image to a file on the PC

- edit the file with hex-editor

- use the psdwrite tool to dump the edited file back to SD card

psdread and psdwrite are in the XDA wiki.

Hope that helps

Keith
[HTC Tornado] on1x1:
or after you dump the rom on the card you can use wmstorage and a tool to make a image for it.
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
could you upload the image file somewhere, like on megaupload or rapidshare, so that other people can try it out?! please?! you'd be the answer to many of tornado users' prayers!
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Totally agree. I guess a lot of people here in XDA-Developers would help you to get it done.

By the way, how does crossbow run in tornado? does it seems to be an early beta or similar to a final version?
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
can you please upload the rom somewhere? we are all dying to get crossbow on our tornados!
[HTC Tornado] :
Windows Mobile 6 Software Development Kits contains emulator images

Is it not possible to extract to rom from that?

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...8091A390B&mg_id=10111&displaylang=en#filelist
[HTC Tornado] madds:
possible i guess. But then you woud need all the device drivers and device specific costumization.

Better hold for the rom snappy has...
[HTC Tornado] greatbal:
Go! Go! Go! snappy! :)
[HTC Tornado] kyphur:
Actually, in theory you could extract the OS portion of the rom and then extract the OEM protion of a WM5 Rom (the drivers should all work).

Where you will run into a problem is with the XIP. You really need a WM6 XIP and this is different from one device to another.
[HTC Tornado] on1x1:
question: did you activated supercid and fully decertified you phone?

do you have the *.img file?

for supercid and decertying method use http://www.spv-developers.com/content/SPV-Services.zip

first of all you copy cert.cab on the phone then you run it. then you use spvservices.exe

then you should be able to activate supercid on the phone.
[HTC Tornado] SGregory:
Snappy, can you upload *.img file??
[HTC Tornado] Airpil:
HOW can i get nbf from img?

[HTC Tornado] SGregory:
snappy, please, if you have dumped file, upload it, duke_stix convert it into flashable format!
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
hey

Snappy, if you can upload it somewhere, i can get somebody who cooks his own ROM's for the Tornado's to have a look at it and im sure he'd be able to figure it out!!

Have you tried to CID Unlock your Tornado? try the method outlined above, using the tools from spv-developers to CID-Unlock and then try flashing, it ought to work!

upload so more of us can help.this is a community after all! :) is it definetly a crossbow rom?!

thanx.
[HTC Tornado] eagle51:
Hello there,

is the Tornado similar as my Qtek 8310 ?

In other words... If it is possible to give a tornato a new WM6 ROM

would it work analog with my Qtek 8310 ?

Rom: 2.0.9.0

Operator-Version: 2.5.312.1

Radio: 413.1.04_02.09.00

The Qtek 8310 was bought in Germany with no branding last year...

Thanks guys

and keep up the great tries :D
[HTC Tornado] NiTroGenious:
QTek 8310 is HTC Tornado!

Looking forward for the new ROM. :D
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Snappy, any advances?
[HTC Tornado] Airpil:
Snappy, What difficulties ???????
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Looks like he has deleted every message about the ROM... :confused:
[HTC Tornado] Airpil:
ПИЗДЕЦ ВОТ ГОНДОН >:[]
[HTC Tornado] on1x1:
happens. well.. no crossbow rom for us.

maybe microsoft interfered :)
[HTC Tornado] madds:
too bad...

i was counting to grab this rom :(
[HTC Tornado] kyphur:
Fit Shappens...

But remember guys & gals, every ship has more than 1 leak...

Now we know that a Tornado WM6 Rom exists and that gives us hope...

If things got hot for Sanppy of the person where he got access to the Rom then I understand having to pull everything suddenly...

He says he has a Sd card rom image dump of Crossbow for tornado.
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
"He" is Dukestix, so I guess that is the same "Dukestix" that has participated in this topic offering some help to Snappy.

This is what he has written there:

"Hey all

this is not a hoax.lol. i have a Sd card rom image dump of Crossbow for tornado. was dumped from a Tornado which is appearing at cebit this year.

what i need help with is the following:

when flashing the rom, i have been told it requests authentication.

is there anyway to get rid of this?

is there any way to alter the unique build ID? this is because my 'source' does not want to be identified/traced by microsoft and sued!

any help would be great.

i actually have the winhex *.img file in my hands!

thanx"

It seems there´s hope yet... :)
[HTC Tornado] oldsap:
go go go chocula81 :)
[HTC Tornado] themixa:
+1

I'm agree with you :)
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
i do indeed have rom dump of crossbow.

but i very much doubt there will be a release en-masse, purely because the source of my ROM dump does not want to be traced, so we are working on removing any and all identification markers in the rom such as build id's
[HTC Tornado] ZlydenGL:
I think that if you share this IMG, we'll try to help you in this ungratefull task :)
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Do you know if this has happened with every WM6 ROM? I suposse that people using HTC universal, excalibur... etc found the solution to release an anonymous rom.
[HTC Tornado] Airpil:
chocula81, I'm agree with you=)

duke_stix, tell the questions.
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
So much for keeping 'really quiet' then duke_stix ;)

I've got it in a .bin now, length is 38,797,312 bytes, same as a dumped OS.nb from a tornado nbf

As for devauth and uniquie build ID, I've PM'd kyphur about this as he removed both of these with his Hermes WMXL ROM

So hopefully we will have a WM6 ROM for Tornado soon :)

Phil
[HTC Tornado] Airpil:
OhhhhhH =) i'm glad to hear it.
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Oh yeahhhh... thanx so much to everyone involved in this for their great effort.
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
hey

i was simply told not to release it as is as the dude doesnt want to be traced or anything! hopefully, it will be once any and all authorisation have been removed!

indeed, hopefully it will be made available!
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Duke_Stix, have you already tried the ROM? A little review would make the wait a little shorter... ;)
[HTC Tornado] psybill:
totally agreed. Is it a full working rom?

Nice try guys, anyway. We stay tuned ;)
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
nope, i havent tried the rom myself yet, waiting for it to be converted into a flashable nbf, tested and then i'm going to flash

according to where i got the rom from, it is a fully working rom update.
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
:eek: WOW sounds really great!! Please keep us up to date!! and, once again, thanx for your effort
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
i/we will by all means be releasing en-masse once we've gotten rid of authorisation! patience! lol. in all likelihood, we may all have working crossbow for tornado before the summer! that depends on how everything goes though!
[HTC Tornado] psybill:
Could you be more specific? maybe not....

"authorisation" doesn't sound very well, also summer seems so far away:confused:
[HTC Tornado] greatbal:
this is really getting more and more exciting... :D

good luck guys. :)
[HTC Tornado] Snappy:
why do you talk about something that you don't understand!?
[HTC Tornado] Airpil:
Anybody, plz upload .bin or .img file with wm6 rom
[HTC Tornado] c4software:
So snapy, you progress ?
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Duke_stix, any advances during the weekend? Did you finally try it?
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
any developments? we are all hungry! hopin' to come out very very soon!;)

goodluck masters!:o
[HTC Tornado] Split:
any news about wm6 ???
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
this is really getting exciting! here we come crossbow! wowowee!!!:D
[HTC Tornado] ZlydenGL:
Aha, IMHO we'll get Crossbow Rom not earlier than at the beginning of summer...
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
well nice to know that. hope so!:rolleyes:
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Sorry, a total noob here, once we get the ROM file, how should the process of updating it be ?

Using bootloader of windows installer?

I did alot of google, but still do not understand, how do we modify the CID thingy to patch with other tornado's ROM.

If we use bootloader, how do we upload the ROM file?

Thanks alot
[HTC Tornado] ZlydenGL:
Read about mtty.exe.

Actually there is no difference :) When our guru will get unlinked from device ROM, I think we'll get it as nk.bkf (file for windows flasher). Otherwise there will be readme file with all descriptions :)
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
SUre then, ill be looking forward for the ROM

btw, what does uncertify or SuperCID means, does this mean, unlock the phone for once, and can use other ROM forever?
[HTC Tornado] ZlydenGL:
Exactly, even hard reset cannot unto SuperCID unlock.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
So after CID unlock, I can even install other ROM using windows installer?

What about those devauth.exe thingy, what are those? And those nk.bkf file. Someone mind to elaborate more? Please pardon my noobness.

thanks
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
just get your phone "superCID'ed" (cid unlocked) for once and you will be able to flash ROMs as many times as you want without getting it locked again. IMHO, nk.nbf (or sometimes coming out like a .bin file) is the main rom file.

up for crossbow!
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Ok then, so what tools you guys use to "SuperCID" is it simple GUI or command line interface?

I tried extracting my Dopod 577w ROM installer, yes there is a nbf file inside. So if we were to obtain this ROM in this format, how to install it?

Thanks

----------------edit

I found this a couple of posts earlier

Im using Dopod 577w HTC Tornado Noble, everything should work fine right? What about those custom bootloader?

I got into my bootloader, and the version is

IPL 2.00

SPL 2.00.0011

After SUPERCID , I will void my warranty right? What if I faced trouble with my phone and want to send it back to manufacturer. Just install back the manufacturer's ROM ?

Lastly, besides SUPER CID , is it possible to modify the 'CID' of the ROM file to match that of my phone? If yes, anyone has any idea what is the CID of Dopod 577w?

Thanks
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
you will lose your phone's warranty by changing the CID. you should be willing to do so.

CID is based on the phone itself. thats why you have to change its CID to SuperCID to be able to load any appropriate ROM for your device. In my experience i think there's no such thing as modifying the CID of the ROM.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
OK thanks then, so what software do I use to SuperCID ?

Do I use this one?

http://www.spv-developers.com/content/SPV-Services.zip

But it's meant for Typhoon
[HTC Tornado] indiekiduk:
yep that works on the Tornado.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Just to play safe, what happens if one tries to SuperCID an already cid unlocked phone? And how to know if the phone has already been cid unlocked?

After CID-ing, will it have the effect of hard reset or it will not affect the operating system so I don't have to backup?

If one day, I plan to downgrade back to my original manufacture WM5 ROM, is it possible by just installing using the windows installer?
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
By using spv-services tool, you will see a prompt to set CID to something like 11111111. it's all in the tool. just manage to read.

it won't harm your system. also you can return anytime to original ROM. but still warranty's gone. that's the way it works.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
I tried running SPV-services.exe without installing the cert.cab file. And the program just open a web browser. How is it suppose to work?

Once i SuperCID it, that means if i accidentaly installed other ROM, I will screw up the phone right?
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
you need an active internet connection to do it.

by installing other ROMs, you won't screw up your phone as long as you install appropriate ROM for your device.

for Dopod 577w - you can use ROMs as that of O2 XDA IQ, iMate SP5, and Qtek 8310.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
nvm, i wait for crossbow rom to be out before doing anything
[HTC Tornado] ericjm:
you will still have to perform the whole process in order to load wm6 ROM if ever.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
At least I still have the warranty, before deciding to void the warranty for WM6 , my device is only months old
[HTC Tornado] :
anybody knows what this is?

http://www.ioicn.com.cn/home/index.php/141700/action_viewspace_itemid_2806.html

bad news

the rom isn't windows mobile 6. it is windows mobile 5, a qtek 8310 rom, AKU2.0

so, if anybody else on here has a crossbow rom for tornado, would be appreciated if you could drop me a PM!

sorry about this guys. i was going on the word of 'snappy' have contacted him also.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
My heart just shattered into pieces, haha. But I thought you said that you got the ROM from a friend but got to remove the microsoft identification ?
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
OMFG! I can´t believe it. So what kind of identification were you trying to remove if it´s a simple qtek 8310 aku 2.0 rom wich is available at Qtek´s webpage? This is totally crazy
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
well, the guy i got it off, told me and even showed me screenshots (via webcam) of the device running crossbow

the dump file i received, i opened in winhex and everything in there pointed to it being a windows mobile 6 release for tornado

this morning i managed to get hold of the tool to make an 'nbf' file, i converted the dump file to an nbf and flashed using the tool, booted, and turned out to not be a crossbow rom at all.

i am working on getting hold of another copy of the leaked rom, and hopefully, this time, a proper bloody version. i'm as pis*ed as you guys are.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
How come the winhex can show that it is a crossbow ROM but once converted into nbf file showed otherwise?

Anyway, we are supporting you over here. all the best in obtaining crossbow rom
