Changing the Radio ROM isn't advised as this is a sure-fire way to brick your Hermes if something goes wrong with the flash.

If the phone IS blocked then no amount of OS or radio ROM changing is gonna fix.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
UPDATE (22/02/2009 9:34AM CET): I’ve also very thoroughly tested the headphones under the current (build 7000) of Windows 7, using the default Bluetooth support (all this done on an IBM Thinkpad T42p with the factory Bluetooth module and automatically installed BT driver).

I’ve encountered no problems with AVRCP-capable programs (the built-in WMP and, after enabling AVRCP by checking in the Options / Preferences / Global Hotkeys / Enable default multimedia key support checkbox – note that, as of the current version of Videolan VLC doesn’t support AVRCP): everything worked. This is a great step from the Pulsar 590, which has the same problem with Windows 7 as with Symbian: resuming from the paused state simply doesn’t work. A big thumbs up to Plantronics for this – now, I can make use of my N95 (by far the best all-in-one multimedia handset right now in my opinion). (Note that, while the Voyager 855, Plantronics’ last-year model, is still incompatible with Symbian, it has no problems with resuming under Windows 7 – unlike its predecessor, the Pulsar 590.)

Two screenshots follow; the first shows the automatic driver installation for the BackBeat and the 590; the second shows the automatic, additional handsfree driver install after a reboot. Note that, after this, the Voyager 855’s drivers have also been automatically installed.

Finally, don’t forget I’ll still post a lot on these headphones after doing some thorough singal interference durability, battery life and handsfree usage tests.

These look very promising indeed. I'm pretty sure they're far superior to the Motorola S9s, however do you have any insight/experience with the S9s to compare the two. I have the S9s and really like them in every aspect.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
UPDATE (22/02/2009 10:35 CET): I’ve continued testing the headphones outdoors to find out whether

-	it’s sensitive to interferences and quickly changing signal reflections (no, it isn’t)

-	it’s capable of delivering sufficient volume in a very noisy street so that the podcasts I listen to still remain understandable (yes, it is; naturally, you might want to disable the built-in megabass when turning up the volume that high)

-	wearing it for an extended length of time turns out to be tiring (no; it’s as easy to hold as for example the Gear4 BluPhones with the exception of they staying on the ears and your not having to be afraid of their dropping)

-	the call quality is sufficient in handsfree mode (it is; tested this on my N95. Everything went just OK) and the switching between A2DP and handsfree mode is seamless (on the Nokia N95, it is).

Currently, I don’t see any point in NOT recommending this headphones. Sticking to its category (earbuds), again, it produces way better sound quality than even the Zune 8 GB earbuds. I consider the latter one of the best, but still cheap earbuds. Yes, I know they are considerably worse than even the Zune 80 GB ones, let alone for example some of the Sennheiser earbuds, but I won’t pay THAT much for any cabled headphones just to be able to compare its sound quality to the A2DP headphones I test now and then. (Nevertheless, they’re still considerably better than the factory earbuds coming with both the iPhone 3G and the Nokia N95.)
[Touch HD General] Daryan:
Hi,

I am very, very surprised that this hasn't been asked already but I have searched and searched and I can't find it. I have CoPilot 7 on a Touch HD and I want to route the voice guidance instructions through the BT headset rather than through the speaker as seems to be the default. I can't seem to find any settings for this and can't find any assistance on the web. Has anybody come across this?

Cheers,

[Wing, P4350 General] sigep739:
Hello, everyone...

I had my Wing sitting on my desk for months - I went to go pick it up and it didnt work. When I plugged it in, the orange light blinked and went off... each time I plugged it in, that is what it would do.

Nothing I would do would get it to turn on - plugging it into computer, trying to do a hard reset, nothing.

So I figured I bricked my phone. Since I can get to the bootloader, I installed a new ROM - 4.26.(something) and nothing changed. I tried another ROM, 4.10.0002 and that didnt work either. It did successfully downgrade (per the bootloader), but it wount start up.

Each time I went to upgrade the phone, my computer wouldnt detect which version of ROM I had on it.. but it still went forward with the upgrade - and my phone responded great... but when powering on, wouldnt get past the TMOBILE start up. It just would turn itself off.

I dont have a memory card in it... and when I go to hard reset, it takes about a half a second, says complete.. and that is that (which leads me to believe it isnt working.. or there is nothing to delete!

Any thoughts on what I should do?

[MDA Compact II General] ChrBeck:
First: Never flash a ROM if you don't know how to get back if it fails. But I'LL help. You have to press the camerabutton while doing a softreset. You'll see a screen with three colours. Now connect your phone to your PC and flash a original ROM. That will work for sure. But you have to use XP.

And what too hell have you done that flashing of one of our cooked roms (Can see it cause of the OS Version) failed? And do you try to cook your own ROM? Because it seems so as you wrote you tried to flash your ROM.

Hope I could help

[MDA Compact II General] ChrBeck:
If you have questions on how to cook a or flash a ROM right write me a PM I'll help. And if you want to publish it be sure you'll put credits to the people you took the ROM and so on from. Best is to ask first. For own (unpublick) use this is nessesary.

And now have fun with your ROM.

P.S. If you tried to cook WM6.5 forget to use an old XIP. You have to take a new one. But maybe Cyberdel and me will publish one this evening. Andf maybe kitchen too. But this is just a sideinfo.

[G1 Android Development] tyler.aua:
I have been having a real hard time moving all my apps over to my sd card. I have tried three different tutorials and none of them seem to work. I tried JFvMOD by LucidREM: APPS on SD [2009-02-14] guide and when I rebooted my phone it was stuck on the G1 image for way too long. I think the problem is that my g1 is having trouble reading my ext2 section of my sd card. I am running JFv1.42_RC33

I'm pretty sure I partitioned my card correctly because I used partition manager 9 and I set aside two different ext2 sections, both 1 gig. When I read my card through partition manager it says I have a ext2 section and I also tried it on a mac and it says I have a ext2 section too, but when I type in busybox df -h it comes up with:

dev/block/mmblk0p1 5.4G 1.9G 3.5G 35% /sdcard

and nothing like:

/dev/mmcblk0p2 1.5G 6.3M 1.4G 0% /system/sd

I have an 8 gig sd card so it says I am missing 2 gigs

I would really appreciate if someone could help me out
[G1 Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

Do you mean Paragon Partition Manager?

The ext2 drive should be a primary partition not a logical one.

Otherwise it wont work.

:)
[G1 Android Development] tyler.aua:
Yes, that's what I meant. How do I create a primary partition and not a logical one?
[G1 Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

Connect your phone to the computer and mount drive.

Start ppm and click 4th link on right.

Click create partition, determine size you want and highlight the sd card drive,you would click format and pick ext2.

It will format the ext2 drive as a primary drive.

So you will have 2 primary drives, one fat32 and one ext2.

Your computer will reboot automatically as part of the formating process.

If something went wrong in the formating process, remove both ext2 partition and redistribute unused space to the fat32 partition and start over.

:)
[G1 Android Development] tyler.aua:
I am still having problems.

I reformatted everything. The ext2 and fat32 types are both primary however on the top it is labeled: Logical Disk (*). [No Label]

Any ideas
[G1 Android Development] cchap07:
Ok so Open Paragon, click ADVANCED PARTITIONING on bottom right, on your sd card right click on the partition and click Delete partition. Then Delete all other partitions on the SD card.

After you have deleted them all, click on the apply button on the top of Paragon. Then after that is finished, right click on the sd card and click create partition. The first drop down box will say: Create Partition as: and select Primary Partition. Then select the size you want the FAT32 Partition to be and on the Second drop down box select FAT 32. Then click yes.

Then Right click on the sd card again on the part that says (unallocated) and click Create partition. Select the partition as primary, and this time select the Linux Ext2 option of the second drop down box. Then click yes. Finally, Click on the top button to apply changes (Green Check mark) and you are done partitioning. Then just follow these instructions.

Let me know if that works for you. Good luck. :D

EDIT: BTW the Linux Ext2 partition has to be less than 2GB for this to work.
[G1 Android Development] bestwebs:
Hi,

Thanks good info.

I made mine 1.6 gigs just by chance.

Good thing it's under the 2gb limit.

Any reason it has to be less than 2gigs?

Thanks

:)
[G1 Android Development] cchap07:
I have no idea why it has to be less than 2gigs, its just based on experience and what others on the forum said. If you make it more than two gigs the market will give you an error when you try to install apps that says something along the lines of "Not enough Space to install program."
[General Questions and Answers] DarkWolve:
Hey guys,

I am considering to buy a second Mobile!

But i am not really sure which one to buy!

I already have a HTC Touch HD! There are 2 Problems i have with the Touch HD! Its too slow for me. I need something that responds the moment i push a button! AND it doenst have a Keyboard. This is my first Touchscreen-Mobile, and i dont really like it!

So i am considering to buy one of the Following Phones!

Nokia E63

HTC Dream aka G1

or

Sony XPeria X1 (dont really know if this would be good, because of WinMo and slow speed)

(unfortunately the Touch Pro is too expensive right now)

So which of those is the best? Regarding the Speed (i have no trouble flashing roms or anything similar!)

Is there another Phone i didnt think of? (WITH QWERTY Keyboard!)

which one would be the best for me?

thanks for any help!

For about two months now, Activesync will not sync with my Hermes. Before, it use to, but not anymore. It says it's connected and I'm able to browse the files on the Hermes, but it just doesn't sync. I tried disabling the firewall, antivirus, everything I can thing of, but it just doesn't sync any more. The partnership is on the device when I disconnect it, but when I go to reconnect to the computer, it wants to set up a new connection every time. I've tried on multiple roms, multiple computers (XP and Vista), removing the partnership on the device, but nothing is working any more. I have Activesync 4.5, which I've uninstalled and reinstalled to see if that would do anything.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
Delete the sync relationships off both your Hermes and the my docs folder of your pc. Re-sync and see what happens.

So, I went and deleted it, and that cleared everything up. Sync's perfectly fine now. Wierd.

long-time lurker, first-time poster. finally decided it was time to sign up as i searched everywhere for this and couldn't find an answer.

i'm looking for a set of replacement windows mobile phone icons, like the one seen in schaps's roms. these icons replace the following icons in settings:

-backlight

-device info

-screen

-csd line type

-gprs settings

-network cards

-wireless lan

i believe that they were derived from the icon found in wmp11 as it also has the icon in settings under the "devices" tab.

obviously, searching for "windows mobile phone icon" generated a lot of unnecessary results. if anyone could point me in the right direction or, better yet, upload the icon pack, i'd greatly appreciate it.

attached is a screenshot of how the base icon looks like (boxed in red). thanks in advance.

Ok, so you have firmware v. 123099 and wanna have root access... no problem.

I have just succesfully downgraded mine, 123099 to RC7, and then loaded ADP1.1h.

QMAT public (free) version used to succesfully downgrade with WM device: qmat_424.zip, md5: 7f0ccd1b52072bc2a6d594393f2ce348.

Newer QMAT can create Goldcard only in paid version. Buy it or get the old one somewhere else (giyf). You won't get it here or from me.

Requirements:

- Micro SD card formated FAT32 (128 MB to 2 GB), Sandisc cards may not work (but worked for me).

and

- Connected Windows Mobile device (application unlocked)

SD Card:

- Format recommended

format F: /FS:FAT32 /A:4096

(Replace F: with your SD card reader drive letter.)

TESTED, WORKING

1. Insret SD card to WM device and connect it do desktop. WM has to be application unlocked.

2. Download QMAT (http://revskills.de/pages/download.html)

3. Start QMAT and select Hardware Forensics -> Generate HTC Goldcard

4. Select Dream from the list of devices, Click "Get SD Card Serial from WINCE Device" and then "Save Goldcard Image to WINCE SD".

5. Copy DREAIMG.NBH to the root of sd (UK - RC7 recommended for our DREA110)

6. Power off the G1, put the card inside, hold camera button and press power button

7. Press power button to start flashing

8. To apply HardSPL, root & upgrade: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=442480

9. You don't need the GoldCard any more (HardSPL fixes it, you should be able to flash any image now). So format the SD once again or borrow to a friend to downgrade his G1. :)

Other way: No WM device needed, just Linux (or Cygwin, to use dd) and paid version of QMAT. However this may not work (incorrect sd card serial number read from G1).

In a linux enviroment, you can get the card id by looking at the /sys fs.

For example in android it's on path /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:XXXX/cid

[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
edit: I *think* serial is the number you need, but I'm not positive about that.
