Thanks.

But could yu please help me:

Please give me one good working ROM with 6.1....link and filename! There are so many files mentiones verywhere that a beginne rlike me has got some problems recognizing the rigth files;-) I don't want to loose my working HTC:p

Are those ROMs also german versions?????
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
1) download hardspl from here and flash it

2) reflash the radio of your choice

3) flash a rom

About the roms, if you want english, and want Manilla 2d, I would flash one of Joshes roms from here

There isnt many german roms.

Starbase's german M2D here

If you want an english plain rom, I would suggest CRCs here

But there are many others I haven't trired, so the best is to look around and flash.

IF YOU WANT TO KEEP A ROM FOR A LONG TIME AND AVOID STABILITY ISSUES, PLEASES FLASH A OEM ROM BETWEEN COOKED ROMS

Usethis or any oem rom
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] erdenkind:
Hi!

What means "reflash the radio of your choice?????" ...stupid german can't understand the meaning of radio....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
If you HardSPL it overwites your radio rom, in order to unlock it ect.

A radio rom, is the bit that controlls all the phone functions, the signal you get, and the type of connection you get (gprs/3dge/3g/H) newer isn't always better but you will want a 1.4+ radio in order to get 3G reception.

List of Radio roms.

Beware, flashing your radio can be fatal, so make sure you have enough battery, and dont disconnect your phone while your doing it.

To be safe I would recomend you do it this way

@veyka:

I'll try to help and switch to german ;oD

@erdenkind:

Hallo erdenkind und willkommen beim Flashen. Sei gewarnt, dass Du das ganze auf eigene Gefahr machst. Du kannst den Hermes durchaus "zerschiessen"!

Nun zu Deinen Fragen:

Ein Gerät hat immer ein Firmware und ein Radio Rom. Du kannst i.d.R. beide unabhängig voneinander flashen.

Bevor Du ein "gekochtes" Rom flashst, musst Du ein HARD-SPL durchführen. Ich würde Dir dies hier empfehlen - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=340468

Mit der 2.60 hat bei mir alles funktioniert, bei der 2.10er hat's geklemmt.

Als Rom benutze ich zur Zeit dies - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=458456 und zwar die "All Back". Laeuft sehr zuverlaessig, ist aber englisch.

Beim flshen laeuft er bei mir immer bei 100% gegen den Poller. Das Utility meldet einen Kommunikationsfehler und auf dem Hermes bleibt alles bei 100% stehen. Keine Angst, Batterie raus, wieder rein, starten und los geht es (der erste Start dauert etwas, nicht nochmal neu flashen) mit dem Kalibrieren. Sollte mal was schiefgehen, findest Du hier immer Hilfe, meistens jedoch auf englisch. Deutsche Roms für den Hermes kann man uebrigens an einer Hand abzaehlen...

Ich hoffe, dass ich Dir ein wenig weiterhelfen konnte. Viel Spass beim Ausprobieren...

...Eins habe ich noch vergessen. Zum Flashen solltest Du den Hermes auf mindestens 50% Batterieladung haben, 90% ist besser. flashen ist uebrigens auch ueber eine Sd-Karte moeglich. Eine Anleitung dazu gibt es im WIKI

Thank you, I was going to try machine translation but it would probs have made it worse ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] goy2k:
...I know about this. It's always a lot to laugh when we get "automatic" transtations. But german is an awful language (for germans too ;oD). By the way, I haven't done a translation of your hints. I tried to describe it in my own words and out of my experiance.

By this way I'd like to thank again all user of this forum for their patience with us, beeing newbies...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
If you have the time, it might be useful if you wrote a formal howto flash your phone guide, in German, which I can tag onto the end of the FAQ, it might help some people.

Just drop me a PM if you are interested:)

As for the patience, you caught me on a good day ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] erdenkind:
Hallo goy2k,

danke für die schnelle Hilfe:-)

Nun hab ich noch ein ActiveSync Thema: HTC meldet version 4.5 oder neuer benutzen...pc meldet "allgemeiner fehler"....MIST! Hab schon Dei-Neuinstalliert, Gebootet, HTC zurück gesetzt...keine Chance:-( ActiveSync Ordner auch schon gelöscht usw...

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] goy2k:
@veyka:

I'll try to do it. Will give a feedback after weekend, because my wife and me are out of town...

@erdenkind:

Probleme mit activesync gibt es manchmal. Schuld daran ist zuweilen die Einstellung unter Start - Einstellungen - Verbindungen - USB to PC. Dort den Haken bei "Erweiterte Netzwerkfunktionen" entfernen. Falls das nicht hilft, melde Dich nochmal. Über das Wochenende bin ich nicht zu hause, eine Antwort kann dann etwas dauern...

Hello@all!

How can I make a Backup of my original ROM/Radio on the htc before running into trouble with another ROM version not working properly;-)????
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boog:
Make sure you have your operators OEM rom downloaded and saved. There isn't a good noob way to just save your rom from your phone (that I know of), so reflashing is the way to go.

You can use something like pim backup to save your contacts and such.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
You can dump the rom but as far as I know it doesn't produce a flashable file off the bat, but all the OEM roms are on the wiki
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
yea if you were to dump the rom using a tool called "grab it" you would then need to spend time decrypting the dump and then have knowlege of how to use a rom kitchen into rebuilding it back into a somewhat usable rom image.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
That was pretty much what I was thinkin, shame there isnt a easier way.
[General Questions and Answers] Al3xxxinho:
Hi, I've had my RX3715 for about a year and a half now, one day, it just froze. So I restarted it, the restart loads and when it's fully loaded the screen is just frozen. I tried a hard reset and the same thing happens. I even tried taking the battery out and resetting and still, the screen remains frozen once the loading bar is full. I've also tried a siftware update from hp but the problem still persists ...

Any remedies?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
When did you noticed it? What had you done to it prior (program installation/removal, flashing a new rom, etc)

It could be that you damaged the screen somehow, so you may want to consider sending it to HP as well.
[General Questions and Answers] Al3xxxinho:
My problem occured one night when I was surfing the internet via wi-fi and opera browser ... At a certain moment my pda stoped responding and showed the busy icon ... I tried soft reset but nothing happened .. so i took the battery out ... And from that night it stopped working ... I think my problem is not a hardware one, because I took a good care of my pda :)
[General Questions and Answers] Al3xxxinho:
Or can anyone give me some programs to dump the rom from a working ipaq to a computer and flash it to my broken ipaq ... Because i have a feeling that the rom from hp website is just an update, not the entire rom :)
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
Unlike with computers, if you see a "Rom Update", you will have a brand new OS in that package. In a PDA, you don't have much space to be installing fixes or service packs (a la Windows) so they rather fix the bugs and release a new version of the OS in the form of an "update".
[General Questions and Answers] Al3xxxinho:
So, is there any free solution for fixing my broken ipaq ?
[General Questions and Answers] Al3xxxinho:
Can anyone help me with a rom dump for this pda ?
[General Questions and Answers] bcam117:
Same problem.

Hey, i just got my friends ipaq to try fix and the exact same things happened to him, sadly i haven't found a way to fix it, have you? Do you have any link or something to help flash this thing? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks.

Hi everyone,

I am from Greece and I am interesting in a program that will be able to download the whole Greek map of Google Maps in my HTC from home.

So, when I go to a mountain that I don't have Internet access I will be able to track my position.

Do you know any program that can do that?

Do you know if I can do something similar using a GPS software?

Thank you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] animelover:
It's way better to use a programm like GPS Tuner with the right map then using Google Maps for that!

Just my 2 Cents
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mirmi:
Thank you for your reply animelover.

Do I have to make the maps in GPS Tuner or can I find them?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] nanhtrang:
search for google navigator !
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] animelover:
If there's an exsisting Map for the wanted region, why not? But you can also make your own maps by scanning a map of trails! ;)

If you know to use Google, you can search for an app that can make huge GPS-ready maps using Google Earth on your desktop!

is there any software that can reassign the volume up and down hardware button to backlight up and down for my ks20?? or simply assign one button for loop backlight??
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
You could try to use HButton. It isn't a bad program and it might just do what you need. Good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] gamedl:
i've installed it, but i can't find any option for adjusting backlight...
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
You have to get the command line from somewhere and assign it to the action (I think). Unfortunately, I don't know what this line is...

[Touch HD General] SiliconS:
My Touch HD has just died. :(

I bought it from mobiles.co.uk two months ago. Rather than take my chances with their throw-a-six-to-start phone system and then fark about posting it back to their customer "services" department, I'd rather find a Carphone Warehouse store and speak to them about it. Has anyone seen it for sale in the high street yet?

I think the problem could either be a dead battery or a dead device and I'd like to try a different battery first to rule that in or out. The HD started turning off/resetting randomly on Tuesday and now won't turn on at all unless I leave it with the battery out for an hour. When I can turn it on, it stays on for just a few minutes before dying again. The last time I was able to do this I managed to do a hard-reset but it died during the boot-up process afterwards. Leaving it connected to a power source (even overnight) makes no difference.

Alternatively, does anybody live in West Sussex who'd be prepared to meet me and let me try their battery for a minute please?
[Touch HD General] davenash:
hello mate, yes it is in the carphone warehouse stores, I've seen it in quite a few. Tried to place an order today with an online CPW store, and guess what - CPW are F*ing out of stock AGAIN!
[Touch HD General] SiliconS:
Nice one - thanks for the reply. I'll find my nearest CPW and see what they can do to help. I'll report back....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] excepti0n:
Stupid question, I bet..

But I can't find this simple option.. if someone sends me a text message, I find it really difficult to call them instead of replying with a text message. I have to store their number first and then call them like a regular contact. Is there a faster way of doing this?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] darfri:
Just press Call (left) hardkey while reading that sms
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] excepti0n:
I tried that, it gives me the dialer, but it doesn't call, nor copy the number so it could call...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] caljitu:
i have the same problem

i have to copy and paste the number in the dialer

quite disappointing
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ou2mame:
you can just push the person's name...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kien:
You can by pressing the call button after opening the message, not from TF3D.

however,i found that it is not available that install ce-star or monstar chinese with the UC package with M2D....

i like this rom and thank spocky12 very much

after i try more than 20 methods...i find several software is available for type and read chinese with M2D and run smooth....

i suppose all of you have this rom

here you go!!!!

1.Install UC package With M2D

2.go start->setting->system->remove program

DelETE the fontchange

3.download this..

http://www.sendspace.com/file/9it37b

install it

4.this is a typing method which hong kong user know about that..

筆劃輸入法

http://www.badongo.com/file/9838987

soft reset

5.go HKLM/software/Microsoft/Fontlink/SystemLink

HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin=RAMdisk\Windows\Fonts\MSYH.TTF,微软雅黑

HelveticaNeue LT 55 Roman=RAMdisk\Windows\Fonts\MSYH.TTF,微软雅黑

SOFT RESET..FINISH~

Great Job!!!

I am a HK user, and i have searched this great job for 6 months, but I still cannot find any posts except this post that teach traditional chinese's user to flash UC rom and make it to read and type traditional chinese.

Thank you very much, however, i will try this method for my KS20 after spocky12 release the new rom soon.

p.s. Thank you for spocky12

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Lemark:
I remember to have installed Ce-star after flashing spocky's rom. But after many bugs I simply removed Ce-star. Then I preferred installing a single font with respective registry modifications. By the way I'll try your method to see if it will give any different result. Thank you :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bun_0806:
Lemark

may you upload some detail for me?

i want to try your method
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Lemark:
You can put your font in the windows directory of your phone and then modify the registry values. I have msyh.ttf (font name YaHei) for example, so I need to modify the registry values under

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]

as

"YaHei"="\\Windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"

"Tahoma"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,Yahei"

"Courier New"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,YaHei"

"Arial"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,YaHei"

"Times New Roman"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,YaHei"

Main disadvantage of this method is that non-unicode Chinese characters become gibberish. Also China will still be unavailable in the regional settings.

Your method is superior to mine as it can truly enable Chinese support :D
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Lemark:
The cab file in following link will install a font and modifies the respective registries. You can install it on top of Spocky's rom. It was made by someone named samau, so all credits should go to him.

support and display T.Chinese

hi all~

there is a useful site included how to make eng wm to support T.Chinese and change the interface to T.Chinese that i found.

http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=support

i tested on my ks20 with KisS20.4 Rom already.

it can be read and write/type chinese perfectly, write chinese meaning it support handwriting input :) But, the problem is cannot use PlumSIP6 after that. Can anyone solve it??:confused:

finally, i havn't test the chinese interface, if anyone interest, go try and report.

Here, I hope someone can develop a perfect T.chinese version rom for HK ppl, the original rom in HK was very very weak...:mad:

Thankyou!

**Remark** install Enable_No_Policy.cab first before you do anything is a must.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bun_0806:
HAY GUY...the file i uploaded is the full version of MSJH.TTF

the file you find in KUMA is good but not function on kiss 20

because it will reload the wince back to your ppc

it will lead many many problems there

for example...you have to reset your ks20 successful more than 10 times
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pinstudio:
hi bun,

thanks a lots, your method can run chinese smoothly, but I get some problem when I use, detail as below:

after upgrade WM6.1 KisS20.4 Rom, this rom is fastest and stable one that I try in my KS20, after upgrade all sim card cannot work. I use this phone in Hong Kong and had tried 3 Hong Kong (3G), PCCW (3G), People and China mobile sim card also. All have same problem - cannot register the network.

I also copy the xml from HK10a rom of HK telecom provider in /windows/networkprofile, can select my telecom provider name but also the same.

After I flash back HK 10a.rom (http://rapidshare.com/files/12754205...2008_.rar.html), now the phone still the same cannot register any network, but can search its own network.

I use LGMDP_EURO to flash the rom in emergency mode with unbranded rom (since I heard all HK LG ks20 is unbranded) KisS20.4Rom

Now even I flash other rom still get the same problem.

please help, thanks

Dear all,

I posted a topic to Geocaching forum today.

And now, I would like to introduce Windows Mobile application "GCz" to WM experts and users like you!!

Because some of you might be interested in Geocaching with WM devices.

Please visit below to know the application for your WM device.

Below is the copy from the forum.

-------------------------------------------

Dear all Geocachers!!

My name is Tom and let me introduce Windows Mobile application for Geocaching.

Last October, I bought my iPhone and searched lots of application from Apple Store.

One of most interesting application is "Groundspeak's Geocaching iPhone Application".

Of course, I bought it and started to play Geocaching immediately. It is a lot of fun!!

At the same time, I searched Windows Mobile application for Geocaching like iPhone app.

But I could not find it. then I decided to develop a Windows Mobile application.

Past 2 months, I was working on it and Japanese Geocachers and friends was helping me to test it.

So, I think now is the good timing to introduce the Windows Mobile application to world wide Geocachers.

The application name is "GCz" and you can download it from below.

GCz is Freeware!!!

[Download from here]

http://www.nicque.com/PQz

[Requirement]

- Windows Mobile 5/6 Professional Device

- Mobile Google Map (free download from Google)

- Internet Connection

(Rcommend flat rate access services to the Internet. 3G/GPRS like.)

I attach some screenshots of GCz. please take a look.

If you have any question, suggestion, bug report, anything.

Please reply here. I would love to have your comment.

best regards,

Okay Tom, this officially rocks! :)

I've installed it and had a poke around. I'm impressed with the search integrated with your login so it tracks which ones you've completed (most of my local ones!).

I also like the way that you got the gallery images linked to the caches.

[bug report]

Device: Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

ROM: Generic UK R2A

Entering a UK postcode gives you the choice of 3-4 to choose the specific location area. Once the search has completed, you have the opportunity to open Google Maps. If Google Maps is installed onto the Storage Card instead of internal memory, the program fails with the message:

File not found. [\Program Files\GoogleMaps\GoogleMaps.exe]

[suggestion]

Have a button that links to "My Profile" for things like Watchlists, Travel Bugs and My Friends.

Please keep up the good work on development. I'm glad someone has finally come up with a dedicated application for GC on WM. :)

Hi ZenithUK

Thank you for your feedback.
