so im on oreo, i decide to downgrade to bra8 to upgrade to a newer version of oreo, i odin back, but while downgrading firmware my cat drops mt laptop and interupted it, now its bricked to the error occured while upgrading software please use smart switch mergency recovery, i did that but it says my device is not support for initalzing to rstore it, im guessing samsung removed that feature completely, is there any way i can fix this!??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Suse@56:
No problem, start the update with Odin again. You just have to press vol down + power 7 sec and put the cell phone back in download.

Vol. Down+ bixby+power, when start vol up

I have the same problem.. Getting that error. But I'm able to access my phone perfectly fine. Only problem is now Samsung apps saying my phone is rooted and I get error when trying to get in recovery mode, download mode or safe mode. So there is no way for me to Odin again. Phone is working 99.9% good with few errors. Let me knw if u have the solution. Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Xander87:
a bit late reply but nevertheless for others who have the same problem like you and me, just solved it. so what I did: after my odin update was interrupted accidentally my phone also showed please use smart switch emergency recovery screen. downloaded smart switch but could not emergency recover (unsupported device problem - seems to me smart switch could not see my phone properly). after searching the web (that's how I found this thread :)) and not finding any solutions i tried different tricks and found out that odin sees my phone but cant initialize firmware update since phone was not in download mode (after bixby+dwnload btn+pwr and pressing continue, the screen returned to please use smart switch emergency recovery screen) but I did not give in and did the following to successfully update my firmware:

1. start odin (place respective files in respective fields of your firmware), you wont be able to initialize the process while please use smart switch emergency recovery screen is shown;

2. connect your phone to odin and press bixby+dwnload btn+pwr combination the way to see options - volume down to shut down the phone (but you wont be able to shut it down it will return to that terrible screen) and press volume up to continue, after pressing the continue button you will hear that connection sound and this time you will be able to initialize the process and update your firmware.

good luck everybody on restoring your soft bricked Samsung devices (mine was unlocked note 8 (SM-N950U1).

[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheLastCanadian:
So, I don't know whether anyone ever cares about this, but perhaps there's some kindred soul somewhere who would. As you may have seen around XDA, I have been trying to get Qi wireless charging working properly on this phone, with varying success. Here are my results, based on two major options categories:

1. Cheap Receiver (Direct from China, aliexpress etc.)

2. Higher-end receiver (Amazon - though still sort of direct, lol: Nillkin is the brand)

On software configurations:

1. Stock

I don't have this loaded anymore. Seeing as every other stock device I've tested supports this however, I would be relatively confident saying you can take route 1.

Custom:

2. Android <= 7.1

This one is easy. While there are other hardware and software issues to potentially be concerned about, type 1. receivers never gave me trouble. They would blink, off, and the phone would lose the charging message while the light remained, ultimately charging, so yea, cheapo seems to work here.

3. Android < 7.1

Due to some sort of kernel/software changes, my guess being a minimum acceptable current is for charging before firing off an End charge, option 1 categorically does not work here. Gotta roll option 2. However, it seems to work without issue - constant light, constant charge message, and across a variety of charging pads.

So yea. There you have it. I've tested probably 5 cheap tags at this point, with the most expensive being the Nillkin for $14.99 Canadian Pesos. The Nillkin one is thicker, but it presents what is likely to be some of the best compatibility you will see. If you're running stock firmware, it seems to make little difference, though I will say the quality one seems to push 1A much more consistently than the non-quality (which usually average between 280mA-500mA).

As for Qi pads: Don't sweat it. Get the 2 colour-ringed ones w/o the LED on eBay for like $2.30 CAD. They'll work just fine. Basically, just aim for one that puts out >= 1A current (on its specs, at least).

Information for the curious, drudgery for the disinterested, and hopefully something helpful to anyone pursuing the same.

EDIT: I may have jumped the gun. The Nillkin lasts much longer for connection, but it still seems to disconnect

EDIT #2: Seems it was a placement issue. Could be the pad, I'll have to see if it disconnects on the cheaper one

EDIT #3: Mostly holds on lower-current. Seems like it's more a delivery issue, keeps constant on the high-current one.

I really want to update to WM6.1 with one of these great roms. Here's my issue. I don't care about the MyFaves crap on the homescreen or even having the program on my phone. If I switch to one of these roms will it effect how MyFaves works? I don't plan on changing my faves and even so I could just do it online via MyTmobile. I just want to make sure that if I do use one of these roms I can still call these people with no charge. I'm not sure if It's on Tmobile's end or on my end. Thanks. :3
[HTC Excalibur] ashasaur:
Now I am not with T-Mobile myself, but I beleive that its on T-Mobiles end...I dont think that your phone has anything to do with it, other than providing an easy way to tell whos on your MyFavs list, instead of having to remember them.
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
correct, the My Faves does not need to be on the phone itself. I have the same plan and set it up online.
[HTC Excalibur] Spart:
Great to hear! It will be a few days before i do this so if anyone knows somthing we dont let me know!
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
I've updated my ROM to the latest HTC ROM offered on this site and have not had any issues. My Faves, as you know, will not be on the phone itself, but can be changed from the MyT-Mobile website. The My Faves program on your phone only lets T-Mobile know which 5 numbers you've chosen and if and when you have changed them.

The biggest loss in getting rid of MyFaves from your phone is the convenience of changing them on the fly. Without it, you must have a computer available. Not really a big issue for me, but it may be for others.
[HTC Excalibur] Spart:
Great! Here's another question for ya. I have been using the T-Zones Proxy to get free EDGE/GPRS. Will a new ROM make this unusable since T-Zones will no longer be on my phone? Sorry If I seem like a noob lol. I got my phone in September of last year and the most I've done is proxy it and mod the JOGGR.
[HTC Excalibur] StevenTony:
It works for me...

I do this for my company and i don't get charged extra. I just change my Faves online. Good Luck! ;)
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
Are you referring to free internet due to a glitch by T-Mobile or are you referring to the $5.99 T-Mobile hotspot plan hack/work-around? The first method is a glitch on T-Mobile's part and will most likely be corrected anyway. I've read that you will lose the Hotspot capability which may screw you if you get internet via the hack/work-around.

I know this doesn't really help, but I'm one of those suckers that pays for the internet so I can't answer your question. You may also want to check out howardforums.com or just use google to help you find an answer to your question. Sorry I couldn't do more to help.

[HTC Excalibur] paradisetoall:
Does this work with Kavanas rom or is this for an official 6.1?
[HTC Excalibur] Damionix:
Same Question please Does it work? Wifey Will kill me LOL

I updated my wife's phone to Windows Mobile 6.1 yesterday,the default by HTC, not the T-mobile ROM. Everything went smoothly and is running nicely. But the only problem I seem to have is having the Myfaves Run on it. It is installed but will not show up on the Programs nor the Home screen. I really dont need it to show up on the home screen, so long as it appears on the Programs in the stat menu so she can manage her faves. I called t-mobile and they had it reset, but what I want is to make it show up. They said to call their tech, and I honestly dont want to answer questions as to where I got the ROM.

Please I know the last reply on the thread dates a while back, so please any help would be highly appreciated, and this is my first post too. :)

MyFaves

I've downloaded and installed the file from this site and it works for a couple of minutes after installation than it says "MyFavs Display off" and shuts off automatically. I can't open the application after that happens unless I install it again.

Is anyone having similar problem with this? What is wrong?

Help!

Update: The MyFaves app did not worked properly with the Sliding Panel media screen. I couldn't get it to run!
[HTC Excalibur] Damionix:

Says that the install was unsuccessful, I guess it's meant for PDAs only. Please someone point us to a Myfaves CAB that would work for smartphones. Better still the Dash. Please?

How do I edit it on rickys rom. I have no idea how to use that commander thing and want to put my friends on the sliding planel for my faves which is on my rom Im using.
[HTC Excalibur] vwgtiron:
You cannot do it

There is no reason to run my faves on this rom. The my faves is a software program with a pretty dialer that takes up a lot of space in resident memory. That is what people here are downloading. The cab from t mobile that enables the myfaves app on your phone. Just use the t mobile website to manage your my faves and setup Ricky's Rom to dial those people that you have selected. You can find the directions in rickys thread at the bottom after the latest version of his rom. You know it says how to setup My faves. Disclaimer: Remember that Ricky's my faves application is not t mobiles. You can setup the people in the app and even change the picture. But if you want to put that person in you Fave 5 you will need to do it on the T Mobile website. If you still want to use the .cab file you will have to run the my faves application every time you would like to use it. Otherwise Ricky's instructions are very straightforward use the total commander to browse to the files that he tells you. If you cannot follow these instructions I hesitate to tell you to go any further. If you do you could damage your phones registry and have to hard reset. This website is for people who have a decent understanding of what is going on with their phone and these hacks and cooked ROMS are not to be taken lightly.

That being said I have never seen the 620 not be able to be fixed no matter what has been done to it. A hard reset usually always restores your original flashed ROM.

This part is for if you flashed your phone

============================================

1)Download Total Commander form here http://ghisler.fileburst.com/cebeta3/index.html

2)Install to your phone

4)Open Total Commander

5)Navigate to \Program Files\Excalibur Photo Dialer\ in there you'll find lnk files

named Dial_Contact1m.lnk all the way through to Dial_Contact12m

6)Now Click File then click 4 (edit)

7)You should see this 40#"\Windows\VJDialer.exe" +1-555-555-1234"

8)You need to Change +1-555-555-1234" to the number you what

9)Then Click File then Click 2 (Save)

This part is for if you Didn't flashed your phone

============================================

1)Download Total Commander form here http://ghisler.fileburst.com/cebeta3/index.html

2)Install to your phone

4)Open Total Commander

5)Navigate to \Storage Card\Program Files\Excalibur Photo Dialer\ in there you'll find lnk files

named Dial_Contact1m.lnk all the way through to Dial_Contact12m

6)Now Click File then click 4 (edit)

7)You should see this 34#"\Storage Card\Program Files\Excalibur Photo Dialer\VJDialer.exe" +1-555-555-1234

MyFaves - Doesn't show up on homescreen, Solution Please?

Hello,

I tried for hours and hours, installed MyFaves - got it from here, everything works, did all the registry entries but just cannot get it to show on the home screen even with the registry entries.

I'm running Kavana's Latest Rom. Can someone please guide me so I can do this as I want the convenience of calling my gf? Thanks :)

I even tried Rinku's Hack - http://shadowregistryhacks.blogspot.com/2008/01/myfaves-revisted.html

Has anyone been successful in getting it to show on the homescreen runing Kavana's ROM?

Which 6.1 ROM And By Whom

Guy get Ricky's 6.1 v23 ROM and do the keyboard fix, save yourself a lot of time and worry, glad to have you back too........!:D
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Thanks man - It feels good to be back :D

but yeah, i know Ricky's ROM has it but that just means I have to do everything all over again :(

Is there no way to do it without upgrading to Ricky's ROM?

If there is - do let me know, Thanks ! :)
[HTC Excalibur] kminatta:
i have Ricky's v23, and i can't seem to edit the "My Faves" info. i use the "Change My5 Contacts", select "Edit", and try to change the name/phone number but nothing seems to happen. i don't have the T-Mobile 5 favorites, but i'm sure that doesn't really have anything to do with it. the "My Faves" info is just a placeholder for contact info, right? thanks.
[HTC Excalibur] Bupahs:
No its not just a "place holder", it does not work that way
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
after you click edit...you will NOT see what you type. Just type what you want for the name and number. MAKE SURE YOU DOUBLE CLICK THE CENTER SELECT KEY on your pad, to save.
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
It might have something to do with it. I know on the T-Mobile WM6.0 ROM, if you didn't have MyFaves activated you couldn't gain access to the application (even though the app was embedded in the phone).
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Having fave 5 has NOTHING to do with this APPLICATION showing up on your slide.

You might have to go into the XML file and add it to the "order" part of it on the bottom part.

You do realize that on Rickys FIRST page....you can DOWNLOAD the instructions on how to get it work.

Instrucion Page
[HTC Excalibur] kminatta:
my apologies. i didn't realize that there were instructions. in my haste to get things up and running, i forgot to RTFM. thanks for the help. :)
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Oh okay. I know that I couldn't (before my xda-developer days) get the application to show up, seeing as how I didn't have MyFaves activated. I asked the T-Mobile customer care reps about it and they told me that without the service, I won't have access to the app. Of course...that's what they'd LIKE you to think.
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Well, I'm on Rogers Wirelss - Canada

I just can't get it to show up on the Home Screen. If i could do this, LIFE WOULD BE GREAT :(

I've been going crazy since yesterday afternoon trying to figure it out. It is the only thing I haven't been able to do and is the only thing I want so badly. Is there a step by step guide to making it show up on your home screen (i.e. Sliding Panels) I have the software, I do everything, I can access it through the start Menu but I just cannot see it through the Home Screen. I'm running Kavana's ROM so I can't get follow Ricky's instructions.

Thanks for the help.

MyFaves 5 registered and T-Mobile with WM6.1 v24 Rickwyatt??

Does anyone know how to get Myfav5 to properly register with Tmobile ?:confused:

I have a Myfaves plan and I know that the slider Myfav is just for looks. I want to be able to use the unlimited minutes feature of my plan. If I understand it correct, even if I have the 5 numbers registered correctly with Tmobile from the website, I still need a phone that reports outbound call to Tmobile as Myfav. The customer service agent informed me that I must use a phone that supports the myFav feature.:mad:

Is there anyway to get WM6.1 to support the REAL Myfav5?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
The Tmobile lied to you... as usual they re clueless brain dead phone monkeys. As long as you have the proper 5 contacts setup on your account. it doesnt matter what you use to call those people. Tmobile keeps track of your calls and processes the billing, not your phone.
[HTC Excalibur] inspron:
After spending another 3 hours looking this up, I have found what you just said to be 100% correct. Thanks for confirming this!
[HTC Excalibur] CareBearKiller:
**NOTE** This was done on the RickWyatt 6.1 ROM -- Which comes with a Fav5 mock dialer...

1. Download the files from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?mdzlvndicwj

2. Place the CAB file on your phone

3. Install CAB file

4. Open the CHome Config utility

5. Open the CMyFaves item

6. Uncheck the "Visible" check box for pages 1-5

7. Select page 6

8. Change the Page Title Line to "My Faves"

9. Change the Text 1 line to "T-Mobile My Faves"

10. Change the action URL to \widows\My5app.exe

11. Disable the page counter

12. Press the "Done" button to save.

13. Exit Chome config app

14. Return to home screen

Now, go to your home screen and cycle through to the My Faves listing.

When you get there, you'll see that its very similar to one of the options on the WM 6.0 with the Dash. Use the center button to open and VIOLA! the My5 app on Win 6.1 Go in to the my5 settings and refresh those faves!

---I'm sure there may be an easier way, but I'm just the average Joe when it comes to modifying cell phones. However, this works. While it may not be needed and sure it may just eat up resident memory, but whatever... Some of us have wives that would be lost with out this "pretty dialer" . lol

*EDIT* I also found for some of it to work properly, the My5Service.exe file/service needs to be run/started. You can edit the 2nd soft key for your MyFaves page in the CHome config utility to launch the My5Service.exe file. not as good as starting it automatically... but ya know easy fix.
[HTC Excalibur] l0lcats:
i dont know bout yall but i just used chome config to create a contact dialer on my home screen and then just put my 5 in order from 1-5.

adding +1 before the full number is all it takes for it to be a "Fave 5" number.
