Sorry guys about the 21009 build timebomb :o

I can fix it easily & upload again but it was too late as ur device already screwed up & I'm going to upload the 21018 in less than 2 hrs from now . And it was checked & free from timebomb :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Scann69:
Damn.....if only i came online yesterday to read what others had to say then i could have backed up all my data :(

Just got my bomb from MS. Anyway....for those who don't understand how the msg looks like and why we cannot do anything about it...i've attached a picture :(

Basically all the buttons on the phone is dead to the extend of the "Start" button not working too so it's pretty much crap thus a new flash is needed.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gloom:
Oo using 1.81.1 build 21009 and didn't have that message (yet).

Should I get that too? Reinstall won't be a problem like I've all my data's on other places :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] d0ugie:
1.90.1 eta? (sorry)

Monx I hate to be that guy who interrupts you and the thread by begging for an eta but I need to flash something in the next three hours and it's either 1.81.1 20764 or holding out for 1.90.1 if you're on the home stretch. I know it's like 2am your time but maybe you're an insomniac. Could you kindly point me in the right direction?

21009 Timebomb

Monx, you may want to remove the 21009 builds from your site and the mirrors. The international date line is protecting me for now, so I downloaded and flashed 1.81 20764. I can't blame MS for protecting their builds, but they could have warned us.

Except for SIM info, my calendars and contracts are on desktop (Outlook) and backed up and sync'ed pretty regularly. I guess I am lucky in that regard. Thanks to all of you who sounded the warning - I (and a whole bunch of other folks) would have been very unhappy campers if this had happened on Monday.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jug6ernaut:
whats this timebomb and such people are talking about?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] P525Lover:
Hi monx,

i'm using rom version 1.70.3 and that timebomb appeared for me too and can't do anything! even Backup my Informations such as contacts, calender and messaging. What should i do now ? i really need those information.

It would be better that there was an alert that notice that timebomb. [saaad]

please give us a fix file so that we can backup out information.

i'm looking forward to your reply.

Regards.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] GenghisZ:
Same here, no message yet, but we are lucky to be in a Time-zone where its still February ;-).

Anyway, I'm preparing for a re-flash in 1 hour :p

@P525Lover: I dont think we should expect a fix, so reflash is your only option I guess. Let this be a lesson learned: backups always prove usefull at some point...

I'm have on my phone

[ROMeOS²][NLD][KLAAR!|15JAN] v1.70.1NL (B21009|STABLE) | DANK JE WEL :)

And a have the same problem !! :mad:

So how can i get my phone to work :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jug6ernaut:
i have my phone set to backup every night :). (simple because i flash so much, but it works well in this situation)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gloom:
Wow strande that it's happening now. Belgium and Netherlands, same time zone :s

We're still in February
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gloom:
For my part, mails/ contacts/ calendar on exchange server, pics/ video on SD, sms on myphone from microsoft and sd ready for UC.

All those things cause flashing often too :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] VaThInK:
I got the timebomb as well. What makes it worse, I work this Sunday and I'm 2 hours late as my alarm didn't went off :(. Stupid timebomb :mad:. Hopefully it's not gonna happen again with future releases.

Btw Monx, are you planning to upgrade to TP2 once it's released? I love your ROM so much to the point that I have to make sure which HTC you're gonna get next so I can make the right decision :p. LOL :D.

Cheers mate.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] fabrom:
I had my phone 1 hour to late so it was already March on my phone :mad:

Can somebody tell me how i can get my org rom on my phone:confused:

I have an MDA Vario IV
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] fabrom:
I know now how to put the org.rom on my phone

I placed the last org rom from HTC on my phone ,and it is runnig well now :)

Turn your phone on.

While your phone is on...press the vol down button and the reset button holding the two in, until you get into Olinex.

Then plug in your usb cable and run a new flash setup as per normal. Just did it to mine. Flashed like normal.

This is what I've got. I have a totally useless device right now :(. Is there any solution beside of flashing (active sync doesn't work, update must be done with device in bootloader mode)? I really don't want to loose all my data :(. And I have an old backup on my PC... Damn..

It seems that those beta leaks are time limited..

I have V1.70.1 I think.

Be aware if you're using any cuostom ROM that containt a "leaked" OS build.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Venxir:
Same here on the 1.80.1 :X. how annoying
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gloom:
Ok got the same message. While waitin for the 1.90.1 build, putting WM6.5 rom of monx for testing. In that time people would abble to call me :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] exilkubaner:
mine is dead too... f***!!

Mod Edit: No need for that type of language...
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] redzion:
wtf?

what now, is any possibility to make a copy of contacts etc...

if not then my opinion on this will get from 10 to 0...

very dissapointed!!!

+ just happened, no warning, nothing...
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gloom:
It's not dead. You can still put it in bootloader mode and flash another build of WM6.1 ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] exilkubaner:
yeah i know but considering the stuff that is on the device and not the sd-card and not backupped... that really hurts. i flashed a tp for someone at work, who has no clue whats happening to him right now - he's pretty screwed.

there must be a way to access the phone without hard resetting... *hope*
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] djshotty:
Thanks very much, ********! I just downloaded

http://www.monx.info/ROMeOS2/ENG/ROMeOS2_181_1_ENG_21009_150209.RAR

and flashed it, only to end up with a white screen that reads,

This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers.

To obtain a newer release or further information, please revisit the website that you used to obtain your current beta release.

Thing is, I now can't get my Raph to ActiveSync, thereby making a flash to another ROM pretty hard! Congrats on screwing up my phone, and giving me work to do that I shouldn't have had to!:mad:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
sorry mate, but flashing a custom rom is always on ur own risk.

I admit it is a mistake, but u can flash other rom on ur device from bootloader.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] johanromijn:
WTF??

You can't blame Monx for this.

Microsoft protected this beta version, **** happens.

After all you flashed on your own risk!!

And there is no big problem. Just put your device into bootloader, and flash another ROM. (build 20764 for example)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] tassadar898:
everyone needs to back off, monx has already said he fixed the timebomb in 1.90.1 which he will be uploading soon. he did not know of the timebomb issue and im sure he did not do it on purpose. Remember, he does this for us, for free, if he makes a mistake and we have to do a hard reset to a new and improved version either live with it or go back to the stock rom and stop complaining. with every flash there is always a risk of something to go wrong, so everyone relax, wait patiently for monx, and stop bickering!
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] tassadar898:
lol in 2 minutes 4 different people posted the exact same thing, lol great minds think alike i suppose
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] djshotty:
I, um, CAN blame Monx for this, mate! He's the one that's posted the ROM without letting us know that it's out of date! What I meant by 'extra work' is that I have to go through that extraordinary process of using the bootloader to flash away the non-working ROM to one that does.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] redzion:
change date

it's not problem to flash etc... problem is that I didn't know for time bomb and that all data which was not backup (becouse I didn't know for time bomb) from the last sync was lost... can't change the date on phone etc... is there any way or not to change the date to previous to make backup and then to flash it with new rom?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] eras2r:
WOW.... so monx is a ******** huh? I saw in another thread you called pfcsabre a noob for not posting screenshots of an OEM package that he released to the public. I think you should really check your attitude at the door bro. This is not a place for that type of childish behavior.

Instead of name calling, just ask the question you need help answering. And even though you didn't, I am still gonna help you out.

1) Get a copy of the ROM you want to flash

2) Copy the *.nbh to the root of your storage card and rename it to RAPHIMAGE.nbh

3) Hold the <volume down> while soft resetting (this will put you into bootloader mode)

4) When asked press the power button and the flash process will begin

5) Don't forget to hard reset after flash

Hope that helps, and please don't be pud and think before you post.

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] johanromijn:
Are you serious??

Pressing two buttons is to much asked??

If you would have read before flashing you would have noticed.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] woeds:
What part of 'use at your own risk' in the opening post of this topic don't you understand?

Yes, it sucks. But if you're toying around with custom roms you should know that stuff like this can happen. And you should always make regular backups.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] GenghisZ:

Become adultly !!

P.S. Sorry for my Bad English
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] djshotty:
Already done all that. As for pfcsabre's thread, I didn't call him a no0b - I merely stated that amongst all the many replies to his post no-one who flashed his ROM could be bothered to put a screenshot in. Sorry if I offended anyone, but at least I have the common sense to put in my posts a much simpler explanation of what I have to share, in an effort to make them more 'no0b-friendly'.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gloom:
Seems djshotty is not happy with custom roms :p

@djshotty: Why did you flash a custom rom? You knew what could happen with such software. It's like intalling a beta version of Windows on his pc, microsoft is always putting timebombs in his OS when it's not final.

Don't blame the rom cookers. Blame microsoft.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mazello87:
Oh dear... just hours a go i thinked when i am going to brick my new htc for first time... i shouldnt think that :P Of course i know it isnt totaly bricked and i just need to wait for a while so monx can upload a new rom. Hopefully he is fast coz i want to go bed at asap :D

Btw, my first post to xda so Hi to everybody!

Edit: So build 20764 is timebomb free?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] VaThInK:
Easy on the language there. No one is forcing you to flash this ROM. You have yourself to blame mate. Plus he didn't do this deliberately (well, I'm assuming monx is just as shocked as we all are.) and he did warn us "USE IT ON YOUR OWN RISK !!" :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] JOat:

can you provide some informations how the timebomb works? and if it can be removed from the "older" roms?

Mod Here

Alright guys, we all now that the 21009 build has a timebomb, and tempers are running high.

But we have to remember that this is a developer's forum, and no ROM is provided with a guarantee.

With that said, I've editted the post with the mirrors to warn other members. (Sorry Monx - I had expected you to have done this earlier)

Also, any more blaming and flaming Monx\each other about this may result in deleted posts - keep is civil and on topic people...
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jug6ernaut:
Thank you for cleaning all this up...it was getting out of hand.

I wanna say i appreciate everything you do Monx and am looking forward to your next release.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] djshotty:
If a ROM (or any other program/link/install) posted by someone doesn't work, the very least one could expect is for that person to remove the non-working post - not just let more and more people fall into the trap of flashing a ROM that doesn't work. As for my language, we're all adults here, and at no time have I used profanity.

Well, mate, I kind of expected the ROM that I downloaded to be working, seeming though it's never happened before with ROMs from other cooks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gloom:

Everybody knock it off now please, both people *****ing and people fighting back. It's great to see people see so many vociferously defend our venerable prolific friend but it would be greater to see this thread focusing on discussing ways to improve the future releases and help others with their existing roms. Or just posts saying thanks, those are nice too.

But no more noise please. And mods, if my vote is of any worth on a matter like this, please delete posts and ban liberally (though I am not speaking for Monx, just my strong opinion).

To lead by example, switching gears, Monx, I think it might be worth while to include the WMA and WMV decoding dlls in \windows (attached) as enough of us probably run into situations for which those files are appropriate, like listening to Howard Stern on Sirius while using TCPMP. On the other hand that's a small crowd and it costs a megabyte. Whatever, just throwing something out there to pay for the rent of this post.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Y2Stu:

4) When asked press the power button and the flash process will begin

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] derylmccarty:
Good job and nice recovery

Tuah, you did well recovering from what could have affected us all very badly - not just a few. We all helped Monx, in fact, by trying to pinpoint the issues (not the blame) so he could work his ROM magic (much to his wife's chagrin I suspect).

We will lose ROM Chef's like Monx if we treat them badly. If they offer us good product we use their stuff and contribute to their beer/rootbeer/coffee funds. If they don't, we go elsewhere or do the cooking ourselves. Playing the blame game has never improved a ROM.

I have been using ROMeOS exclusively for more than a year starting with my Tilt and have never been unhappy.

To prove it: Confirmation number: 8VE29005MY599162A.

1.90.1 is installed, stable and fast. Thanks, Tuah

P.S. To be honest, I am not entirely sure that WM 6.5 is YET an improvement (except visually). I think we are going to keep WM 6.1 ROMs for a while and will have to work 6.5 to get it where we want it. In the mean time, whining at a chef ain't going to get us there.

Just my $00.02 and flaming me will get no response.
