Hello,

Welcome to the forum !

I live in Toronto, Canada. I own a Rogers Branded "HTC s621" and i can confirm that i've upgraded it from Windows Mobile 5 to Windows Mobile 6. I used GSM-Liberty for the unlock. They provided me with a .UNL file specifically for my IMEI which with the help of the dash unlock program, unlocked my CID & SIM. Here are the steps that i used:

1) Use GSM-Liberty for SIM & CID Unlock (Price: 39.99)

2) Download Dash Unlock software

3) Download .UNL File

4) Connect phone to the computer and ensure Activesync icon is "GREEN" which obviously means it's Connected.

5) Run Dash Unlock Software

6) When asked for .UNL file, browse for it and open file

7) When you do see the message, "Unlocking Done" - Phone Will Reboot Automatically.

8) Run Bootloader Upgrade (SPL 1.11 - Upgrade Only)

9) Run WWE / GER / RUS / FRE ROM (Personally, I installed WWE ROM first then installed GER ROM as it doesn't have a number of languages that WWE ROM comes with which means more space to work with but just to let u know, you'd need to map your keyboard etc and if your unfamiliar with that just install WWE, it's lesser hassle)

10) Run SDA Application Unlocker (This allows you to install applications, edit registry etc - Search for it in the forum, it's posted already)

11) Install Tweaks/Hacks/Applications

There you go, That should work !

ATTENTION: DO NOT USE VISTA, USE WINDOWS XP - THE PROCESS IS A LOT FASTER AND SIMPLE. SO FIND YOURSELF A WIN XP COMPUTER AND DO AS I SAID AND YOU SHOULD BE FINE, I USED VISTA AND I HAD ERRORS TOO BUT THE MOMENT I USED WINDOWS XP, I WAS DONE UNLOCKING AND UPGRADING IN 15-20 Mins.

Also, After the upgrade, if you see that your bootup screen is stuck at the Windows Mobile - don't worry, give it 5 mins and all should be fine.

Good Luck ! Hope everything works out for you, if not - ask and we'll try and help.

Best Regards,

Lukybandit

P.S: SIM AND CID UNLOCKS ARE NOT THE SAME

SIM Unlock: Unlocks the SIM Lock which allows you to use different operators. For Example: If you own a Rogers device, you can use Fido or if you own a T-Mobile device, you can use AT & T etc.

CID Unlock: Unlocks the Carrier ID which allows you to flash/upgrade your rom. For Example: Windows Mobile 5 to Windows Mobile 6

Fortunately, My phone was already Sim Unlocked but it wasn't CID Unlocked. Hence, why i had to spend 40 $ for the unlock. As of now, there's no FREE solution but maybe in the near future. Trust me, It's worth the upgrade.
[HTC Excalibur] MountainDrew:
One important tip that may help some people out. If you've disabled "advanced network functionality" (Settings/Connections/USB to PC), turn it back on before attempting the upgrade. It made all the difference to me. A sure way to confirm your device is ready to start the upgrade is to do a hard reset before you start. That will ensure all settings are at their default.

Note: This still won't help you if your device is locked (cough up the $40 already!), but it could be what is preventing a lot of people from successfully upgrading.
[HTC Excalibur] DennisFRT:
Thank you for explaining that you rock. I will try it tomorrow.

Anyone else feel like the keyboard is a bit less responsive compared to WM6 for typing text (a bit laggier with T9 disabled)?
[HTC Excalibur] chaznet:
Nope -- no difference at all.
[HTC Excalibur] PhoenixAG:
I've noticed that when I keep the delete key pressed (on the keyboard), it doesn't delete things as fast as the Dopod rom used to. However, when I keep the Back arrow key pressed, it deletes things fast.

That's probably the only difference.

For some reason it looks as if Mellowrom was locked down. I Just wanted to remind anyone like me who is using this rom and need support that Mellowrom has a Google Plus community and you will be able to get all your questions answered there. Hopefully this is not a permanent thing because this rom is petty solid. In case you can't find the link to the community, here it is.

actually, im wrong. it is closed because of a profanity laced post by the op. it will stay closed until the dev talks to the mids about it. so, xda did close it, but because of the devs use of colorful language(which he was warned about before).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walttheboss:
Galaxy S4, i9505 in China (google blocked unless on a vpn)

For some reason I cannot get Voice Typing and Skype/WhatsApp to work together. It seems to be one or the other. If Voice Typing is working then Skype/WA cannot hear the microphone.

I have now tried three 5.1.1 Roms with various (Banks, Open, Slim) gapps and none of them seem to work. All the ROMS are great (Dirty Unicorns, CM 12.1 Optimized etc.) but voice typing and Skype seem imcompatible.

I am guessing that it is a Google thing since many changes are coming for Marshmallow. Can anyone help or at least confirm the issue?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walttheboss:
SOLVED: Clean reinstall with Dirty Unicorns 5.1.1 and Banks Gapps. Don't install Google Keyboard. Google is changing so many things at the moment that it makes many features less stable.

[Moto 360 2015] beaubin:
Hi all,

I used to have the Sony Smartwatch 2, the vibration was gooood ! Then I passed on to the LG G Watch, oh man, I just couldn't feel its vbrations, annoyed me so much, so I had to root it, then make a PC ADB batch command to make the vibration strength way stronger and way longer. Only constraint was that each time when the watch's battery dies or I turn the watch off and back on or a simple reboot, I had to do the command again...

Just bought the Moto 360 2nd Gen, was afraid of this matter before hand, and then I found that its vibration strength was ok, only it's too short for me to not miss any notifications.

Then I found those 2 apps, works pretty well ! Not prefect (as in the patterns aren't always precisely outputted), but we sure won't miss any vibrations no more ! No root is needed ! Hope you'll like those too :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sk.martinflorek.wear.feelthewear

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kissy_software.wearcustomvibration

Google should really build these settings directly into the Android Wear app, since 3rd party apps can do so and don't need root access. Of course, we are well aware of that by doing so, it'd affect the battery life, but I'm sure there're a lot of us that would prefer to not miss notifications rather than having a few extra hours of battery life...

I have flashed pre-rooted with dualrecovery in my phone (Locked BL, though), and now a need to send it back for warranty, due to a screen flickering when using maximum brightness.

Is there a thread with back-to-stock instructions to the Z3, and specially for the 6633 model? or all I need to do is flash a stock firmware?

Is there any sort of eFuse or flash counter (as in Samsung phones) that i should worry about?

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperBet_ARG:
Hello!

Today my phone decided to have a mind on his own and do some strange things while I was sleeping.

At first, I noticed that the device decided to turn off and after a while, turn on. I realised that because when I got up I found the popup that reminds you to check the battery cover (it usually appears after turning on the phone). I entered the battery stats and the "timeline" of the battery shows that, apparently, the phone was off for a couple of hours (I'm attaching the screenshot).

After this, my SD card died. It's not recognised by the phone (it shows a message of sd card blank) nor my computer.

Did this happened to you before. Do you know a way to recover my info?

Thanks in advance!

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steveroo:
first off I'll admit I'm a dummy.

Previously, I had LG G3 d852g on Koodo. I did a back up with TWRP and later the phone died and wouldn't turn on. I took the phone back to the carrier.

I thought I could save time restoring my apps by restoring the old backup.... I can't because of a different iemi #

TWRP does respond, but my phone is boot looped since I did a Wipe cache, dalvik cache, system and data before restoring the back up.

I tried to flash a stock rom, but found out the otg cable isn't recognizable in TWRP.

Should I try [Guide] LG G3 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ & TOT Method http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 or is there a better method to get me out of the loop?

or buy a micro sd card and try to flash a rom?
