[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
i can gladly tell you i had the same situation with mine and solved it. as xplode says, after carging the battery seperately and trying over and over again i finally got back to bootloader mode as there was no rom on the device anyway as the flashing process canceled with the vista bug, of which by the time i did not know. the red led is generally not that good of a sign and i understand you are shocked, but it can be solved, so don't be!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] SilverSamurai:
[semi off topic]

One Quick Note(should find this in the manual, i think, i lost my manual):

if your BA is showing RED led other than ORANGE or LimeGREEN led WHILE CHARGING. it has a problem regarding the battery not charging or the charger not giving enough output.

or we could always say... it's in the wiki, or faq ;)

[on topic]

Im telling you It's not DEAD! Lol... and tell us if it's OK now. OK?

-SS-

have a good day y'all.

The battery of my friend's elf is discharging for no apparent reason, even after purchasing a new battery and even after hard resetting the device. Any help? Its running on WM 6.0. Thanks in advance.
[Touch GSM General] Rexton270:

Hello Everyone, Today I was riding my bike on such a beautiful day, i was listening to my music, i had it in my case and when i was crossing the street the phone had fallen on the road, i went to turn around to get it but i was too late, a freaking car had rolled it up. its a shame ive only had this phone for 3 months and i managed to screw it up, first time this has ever happened, i always baby my phones and this happens, it sucks so much and im so pissed. the funny thing is everything still works except the screen, so i was able to use my mobiler to see what i was doing on the phone so i could backup everything, hopefully i should be able to get a new one though
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] schnitzelbrain:
our thoughts will be with u and ur phone. :(

hopefully u will find a new phone soon. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] trancer_84:
sorry about your loss, was it insured?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TriAxisFL:
Damn that sucks, I would be sick to my stomach.

No offense to your personal preferences, but I can't understand why people use cases. Just about everyone I know that uses a case, has had their phone fall out or they drop it while taking it out of the case. My buddy even had his phone pick-pocketed while in a bar. They bumped into him and unlatched the case, kind of funny though.

I just put my phones in a pants pocket all by themselves.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] xhypnotik:
Aww man, that sucks. RIP :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] l3it3r:

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] l3it3r:
Same here. In the pocket, screen towards leg. :)

I've had all four of my HTC devices survive that way :cool:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] KD8DNS:
I am sorry to hear of your loss. Can we see some pics?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] telegraph0000:
My God MAN!!! Have you no Soul!!! Guy's just lost a loved one and you want to feed your voyeristic hunger with PICTURES!!!??

Remember...all good phones go to heaven.

Edit: Would be interesting to view pictures so we can learn from this experience . That way, we can learn to safeguard our phones from faulty cases, asphalt and, oh yeah, Priuses.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] KD8DNS:
Uh huh, you couldn't resist either huh?:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jd885:
damn that sucks... i feel for ya and your poor poor phone...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MimoG3:
Well I Took Some Pics of the Aftermath. Here are the Graphic Images
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] dgduris:
Ouch!

I had this nightmare scenario occur to me as I jumped on my bike to ride to the office. (finally warm here - even just for 2 days)

I put mine in a holster on my backpack (www.chromebags.com)...and only listen to music with one ear of my Discovery 855.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MimoG3:
sorry to hear that, i too was riding because of the amazing weather, i was using the htc audio dongle which got ran over too but survived
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] telegraph0000:
OMG!!! lol...I can't look!!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] JFlitt:
Damn so sad lol.... not even the Invisible Shield could have prevented this!

Bahhh best of luck with your next one!

JFlitt
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MimoG3:
haha hopefully i should get a replacement soon, but ya if i do i will get a much better case, i wish i could get a bulletproof case for this thing, the funny thing is the screen was what got rolled up first and it did not crack whatsoever, the motherboard, camera, keyboard, sim card + memory card slot, speaker and all the buttons still work, the lcd has no cracks just a pressure mark. that touch screen is tough.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fishzine:
I know it is some serious wishfull thinking but have you opened the thing up and make sure your ribbon cable connecting the screen top half hasn't just been pull apart from the bottom half? Looks like the phone twisted pretty much around the slidin rails (understandably), but if everything works ok except you have no screen at all, I would be opening it up and checking the ribon cables. I have seen a service manual floating around somewhere, can't remember if it was here, but it gave instructions on openning the Raphael up
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MimoG3:
i have opened it up, i put it back together, but the thing was i didnt know how to take out the lcd panel so that i could see the wiring on that, the lcd cable attached to the motherboard was tightly connected. i basically got almost everything out of the lcd assembly except the lcd itself. the wire itself looks perfectly fine. its all good though, i will have a parts phone, i should hopefully be getting a free replacement soon
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
yesterday in class my teacher literally took my phones from my hands when i was texting. i thought she woudl just keep it til after class

(this is college mind you)

she then walked to the window and tossed it out. i was in shock i didnt even know how to react

luckily it was grass and no damage but still what the hell do you do in that situation
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] telegraph0000:
Those pictures remind me of Johnny 5 when he's beat up by a couple of bats by the bad guys...bleeding battery fluid...that camera lens reminds me of his eye being shot...sad sad memories....but good ones as well when he got a 14k gold body and his citizenship.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tyguy:
Well it's YOUR personal property nobody has to lay a hand on though it may be appropriate to give a verbal warning OR confiscate the phone for the current class. Beside the fact that I would be MORE than pissed, if you don't want to finish college at that school take a close look into laws regarding student personal property damage...

@MimoG3

DUH DUDE didn't know that you could get the Fuze with a twisting AND tilting screen :rolleyes:

Bad joke, I know, I feel sorry for you!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ptyindian:
wow i would be so pissed. i am in college and none of my teachers are like that i text all the time right in front of the teachers face not literally but close enough and they dont care. I would really look into the school laws about that and see what can be done. What college do you go to?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MimoG3:
haha its more a feature than anything, i guess you could say mine is unique being the only touch pro that can do that. lets start the bid at 1,000,000 dollars, who wants dibs
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ptyindian:
hahah id buy it if i was a trillionaire lol you should put a RIP sign in your signature for the fuze and link it to the pictures lol
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 944obscene:
Yep, mine bit the dust a few minutes ago. It's been working almost flawlessly since I got it in December. Just today, I noticed it got REALLY HOT for no apparent reason. I hadn't even been using it. I just had it in my pocket and noticed I was getting a call. Pull it out and- "WTF?! This thing is burning up!"

It ran the battery down extra quick after that and I had to charge it a little bit before going to school. I was gone for an hour and it died within that time. Got home and put it on the charger. Then the damn thing shut off and rebooted for whatever reason and that's where it's stuck for now.

It just shuts off and boots up. Doesn't even get past the initial "AT&T World Phone" screen. It only stays on for about 1 second. I'm kinda pissed. I work at an AT&T warranty center, and the only thing that really peeves my ish, is that I know it's going to be Tuesday before I can get a replacement and that I had most of my contacts moved to my phone. I think I have one number on the SIM and that's some girl I'm talking to right now. At least there's always that.:rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ptyindian:
oh wow so you can really answer any of our questions that we have about warranties and how ATT handles them and what they check for?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ptyindian:
Hey thanks a lot for this information. I am sure it will be helpful for someone now if only we can figure out which DSC you work lol JK. I never knew they had something like this i thought the only way to replace a warranty phone was through the mail. Idk if you should make a ATT warranty support thread lol where people can ask you questions if their phone can be replaced for the problems they are having. If your up for the challenge of the questions that might flood the thread then i say its a good idea. Thanks once again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
yeah most my teachers dont care at all

this one always *****es at people and this was freakin group chat it wasnt like she was teaching. i go to IUP its in pa

but i only got 2 more semesters after this and really dont wanta fail that class seein as how it should be an A so not sure i wana bring **** against her but it was messed up

my invisible shield may have prevented any damage ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] udgn:
Ohhhhhh!

Man I would be Crying FOR MONTHS. Holly *#@! mine just fall to the street when I was getting out of my car in a hurry, THANK GOD that since day one I put a Hard Cover. :cool:

Sorry for your Loss. :eek:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MimoG3:
thank you, i had a hard case on mine along with a belt clipping case, i never dropped it at all, I'm very anal about scratches but in this case i got more than scratches, haha, but you better believe i was pissed and heartbroken. this is the first and hopefully last time this ever happens, right now I'm using some piece of crap Nokia 2620 a great upgrade huh?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Gundem:
We need one of those for Raphael...this is a perfect occasion for it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] KD8DNS:
First, I agree that the store's refer to warranty more often than not. Warranty department is a bunch of bull****, the way the calls are handled, the way the rep's talk to the customer, and the complete lack of any technological smarts.

The Dsc is were I would recommend ALL customers to go. I have assisted training alo't of these guys in these locations and these guys know there stuff. In the training seminars they are even told to research online technical forums and such. Its easier to go to a face to face location and get the help you need rather than some dumbass on the phone that thinks a crackle sound in the speaker means you must have dropped your device.

On a side note, im glad to see other smarter AT&T employees on here that actually know there job, and have a knowledge base about the devices they deal with.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 944obscene:
Thank you. I'm sorry I don't get on enough here. Seems a few people have tried to contact me after I made that last post. I probably do not get on enough for some sort of AT&T Q&A section on here. Not if I were to be the one helping people out.

Now if we could weed out other employees on here and make it a sort of, ask a Q and let everyone reply as they may... That might work. Something like a help forum where you can ask a question, and anyone that knows to go there to help others, could put in their two cents and advice.

hey guys guy with the broken fuze here, had a question, along with my phone getting ran over so did my HTC sound Dongle, the black thing that allows you to charge your phone and plug headphones and such in it. well the weird thing is when i plug a headphone plug in the 3.5 mm headphone jack it thinks that im using a HTC TV out Cable and it asks me what format i want to put out and then takes me to the tv out screen, i was wondering could i use a camcorder cable or something and possibly use this thing as a tv out adapter, i dont have a camcorder cable so im just wondering if you guys would think thats possible?

For the ACTUAL omnia plugin from the Omnia itself check here. Also, i recommend using a PDAViet ROM. Just find one thats fairly clean and has everything you need such as .net CF 3.5 and im not sure if anyone on this forum can give you advice on android.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] LoveMyPhone:
I want to recover files from my Kaiser which crashed recently. I've heard rumors that it would be possible to reconstruct the phone's filesystem from a NAND dump or something like that. I want to dump the necessary areas of the phone's memory from the bootloader and then convert the dumps into usable data. Thanks for the help.

Yeah, I did my searching, no flashing the phone is not an option (it makes it impossible to recover my files), yes the files are probably still there, yes I am technically literate.

There is no comprehensive list of commands that can be sent to the Kaiser bootloader through MTTY that I have been able to find. Has anybody found such a document? It would be very useful.

I have an HTC Kaiser 120

It has some outdated version of HardSPL

It is not Sim/CID locked

I have windows mobile 6.1 on it

Anyways, thanks for the help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DaveShaw:
There are plenty of bootloader commands on the wiki for other devices, most of which behave the same.

In what way did you're device crash? It might be recoverable...

If it is truley stuck you could try using QMAT (http://revskills.de) to help read data straight off the NAND.

Thanks

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fone_fanatic:
I remember there being a guide to using MTTY that had a list of commands, but that was long ago, i think in the wizard days. Search the wiki or reach out to some of the guru's.

sidenote, its reasons like this i keep all my files on my SD.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] LoveMyPhone:
Thank you all very much. I was hoping to find a guide specifically for the Kaiser because issuing bootloader commands which differ between phones could have disastrous results. You've been most helpful. I'll update when I've tried some stuff out.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] unus32:
I set the alarm and now always rings at the same time even if not set. I can not turn it off. What about it?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fone_fanatic:
are you sure your turning it off properly?

Uncheck the box in alarms, and for safe measure go ahead and un-select the days.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jarcaf:
I have that problem intermittently as well. For me it just goes away for awhile after a soft reset.

If that still doesn't work maybe you can try changing the alarm sound to a blank audio clip?

I want to reflash my ROM because of this, but my usb port is all jacked up :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fone_fanatic:
mine broke as on my previous kaiser, why don't you flash it via your SD card? i had to flash it back to original spl and rom to do a warranty exchange, all was done from the memory card.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] awbcmu:
I've always found alarms under Windows CE pretty flakey, especially when I go across time zones. It seems clear to me the Windows Mobile people have never traveled across a time zone.

You can use FdcSoft TaskMgr (you'll have to google it) to delete the alarms in the event queue, I've seen up to three days of future alarms there even when I've cancelled them in the actual alarm.

Alan
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PhantomYoda:
Yeah I have had the same problem with the generic alarm built into the rom... it will go off when it's supposed to, but sometimes it won't turn off after i shut it off, and sometimes it will actually freeze the system, or it won't stop vibrating until I soft reset.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stylez:
THe phantom alarm as it was named was a WM bug and can be solved via clearing event que "just like awbcmu said"

I use SKTools to clear the notification que "have never had probs with alarm as since the day i read posts about long time ago, have always used another alarm program"

Help help help please please please isn't a great topic title to actually get help.

Please adjust your topic title to something like: "No flash support by browser?" or something like that.

Regarding searching, the keyword "flash" would give a lot of false positives ;) flashiing phones is an activety well documented over here ;)

Youtube would indeed be a better keyword.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] evilv:
The number of terrible issues detailed on this forum where people have taken a perfectly functional universal and ruined it by 'flashing' Roms with rubbish softwre suggests that the best cure for a non functional machine would be to have left it alone in the first place.

Surprisingly perhaps, I have had more than two years of solid use from a Universal, mainly it seems by not messing about with its core software and concentrated on just using it.

As my grandma used to say - 'If it ain't broke, don't try and fix it.'

Wise advice, I think.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] responderman:
Hi

You are right to a degree, it is important to read up well before tying to flash a phone and leave it alone if you dont know what you are doing. However we wouldn't have the advanced universal we do now if it wasn't for people fixing it before it broke. We have some very clever people on this forum, and they should get all the support they need. I have lost count the number of times I flashed my phone to develope it futher. It still works:)

[G1 General] tony604:
I received this broken G1 phone that I'm trying to fix. The problem is the cable with p/n:50H20131-09M-A (or 73H20179-41M) in the service manual. It was ripped somehow. I've scoured the web, and couldn't find this flex cable anywhere, except on cellulardr.com where it was included with the metal slider part that they wanted $130 for! Can't justify shelling out $130 to get a dinky little cable that shouldn't cost more than $10-$20.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks
