Ok so I downgraded from rc30 to rc29, downloaded the necessary recovery.img, and jfv.1.42_rc33. I got root using telnet after typing enter "telnetd" enter. I also downloaded busybox from my phones browser.But now why do I get " cannot access files from directory/no such directory" message when I enter in "dd if=/sdcard/download/busybox.asc of=/system/bin/busybox"?

I'm suppose to enter this into telnet correct? Or is it through my computers command line?

Am I suppose to have the usb mounted or unplugged when I type this in?

Can someone please walk me thru the android wiki for rooting and keeping root from: android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=keeping_root

ps: if i.m. is easier let me know. please help!
[G1 Android Development] ashshlay:
you don't need to install busybox if you don't want to(it comes installed for later use in the jf builds you are going to install later). You can just download a terminal program and run the commands that contain the flash_image for the recovery.img. Then once that is done you will have moved the recovery.img to the /system folder and then you have the jf file renamed to update.zip on your fat32 formatted sd card. Once you do that you will then reboot holding home and power. A screen should come up prompting you to hit alt+s to update your system. WAIT for it to finish before you press home and back key to exit.

I think that's it... I suggest rereading the wiki a few times to get familiar but also reading the sticky posts that have this same info as they have the same steps and make it just as easy as the wiki.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwebster83:
United States owners and perspective buyers of the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1a all know of the video recording limitations. Broadcom, the creator of many mobile patents in the US, have forced Qualcomm (HTC’s main processor supplier) to set the X1a's video capacities to 24fps for QVGA and 10fps for VGA resolutions. This has made it a debate as to whether one should have US 3G speeds (850 MHz, 1900 MHz) or 30fps VGA video recording. Without surprise many people opted for the 3G speeds over the video capabilities, but not anymore.

With a simple ROM update anyone with a United States version X1a can now upgrade to the United Kingdom generic X1i while still keeping their 3G speeds. The upgrade requires users to first install HardSPL which allows for ROM installations using HTC’s ROMUpdateUtility. The newest UK XPERIA X1i ROM is dated 2Feb09 and available with all the files needed to port over to the X1a including instructions.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lizzo:
sweet!!....but what will happen if u flash it to an x1i?...will any frame rate changes occur?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
At last - I've been "crying in the wilderness" for 15 months now over the global-cripple that Qualcomm has visited upon us, and endured much abuse from the more wilfully ignorant of the EU denizens - for whom this issue does not matter. Recent HTC device releases deliberately lack the UMTS 850Mhz frequency hardware due to this pernicious issue. This matters greatly to those people who live in regional Canada, US, South Americas, Aus, South Africa

It's extremely gratifying to see consumer action force this into open sunlight :D

LATER EDIT AND WARNING:

The download is large (RAR 162Mb). It contains the usual files for a ROM upgrade including a ruu_signed.nbh, but the included HardSPL.exe contains a Win32 virus - be warned. I now think the initial post is a malicious hoax.

This doesn't mean I resile from my comments on the main issue - just means that smart...ses are exploiting the issue for amusement.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwebster83:
Yes if you can see in the picture, the new video are in the format of VGA with 30fps. Its so nice to stick it to Broadcom.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwebster83:
Oh it isn't a hoax, this is the real deal and works perfectly... I don't know why it would be showing up as a virus... I downloaded HardSPL from here and ran it on my machine perfectly. I have AVG installed on my system and nothing came up as a virus. Maybe you have a virus scanner that for some reason is saying it is a virus.

But the only amusement that I would want to exploit is the satisfaction of actually having a VGA 30fps video camera on the X1a.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehnoobzorz:
doesnt the xperia only record in 3gp?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
OK then, I was wrong about motive (??), BUT:

1) the HardSPL.exe is a different (larger) filesize than the one in the sticky here and reports as containing a Win32 virus by both Kaspersky and Avast

This is not such an issue as we have a genuine HardSPL in the sub-forum here. I just didn't want newbies using it

2) ruu_signed.nbh as in your download package is also corrupted - ie. NO GOOD

Point 2) here is critical.

This issue is too sensitive to play around with. Could you please supply just a simple link to a guaranteed uncorrupted nbh file ?

Unless you are referring to APP_SW_X1i_GENERIC_UK_R2AA010, which is available as a download from the sticky
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NotATreoFan:
Let me begin by saying that I have a Raphael, and not an Xperia...

That being said, it is not uncommon for the CustomRUU.exe files to be detected as a virus by most commercial AV products. Over in the Raphael ROM Development forum, you will find several hundred posts from people claiming the RUU file is infected. My AV, Eset Smart Security, never threw a false positive until around a month ago... but now it is, and it is hitting on the same RUU file I've been using for 3 months.

For the NBH file, I wouldn't be concerned about it being infected either. The file doesn't execute on your PC, so there's no need to worry.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
Oh dear, I wish people would read the posts before making inaccurate, patronising comments ... never gonna happen, I think.

The virus is reported in HardSPL.exe, not CustomRUU.exe. My posts said exactly that.

I never suggested the nbh file would execute on the PC - duuh! I said it was corrupted - so it won't flash, OK ? ... sheeesh !!

if this is supposed to be the 2nd feb 09 rom then it's the R2a10 generic uk.

I'll see if I can dump it and see what's inside this claimed one..

Personally I can't see how it's going to make a difference, unless it's remodelling the inside of the chipset.. Although I'm always ready to be proved wrong. :P

if it did make a difference then surely although those people who are using the northamerican R2A based roms would be complaining about the lack of fps, as it would work both ways.

If it does dump I'll diff the camera packages..

Here is the new UK generic rom on the X1a it works trust me. You need to change the video settings in the camera so that it is at VGA with high frame rate.

If it says it is corrupted just download the newer UK generic rom and flash it to the X1a. If the hardSPL is saying that it has a virus download the one from the sticky, cause I thought that was the same place i got this one.

here is a video sample remember that the X1 records in 3gp... so you may need a codec. http://www.4shared.com/file/89748707/a19de1a2/MOV_0001.html
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ewok666:
Are you blind? Not only does it look horrible but Coreplayer clearly reports this as 8fps!

As stated before, a simple ROM flash will not enable 30fps. If anything, there might(!) be a possibility that 30fps is only disabled in software and a hacked camera app may enable this.

If you are REALLY getting 30fps, then your phone is X1i and NOT X1a

Check the white label under your battery

I've searched the forums and cannot find an answer...

My old e800 had a program called ResFix that would put it in QVGA mode. Great for some programs that get very laggy on a VGA device. I see that another HTC device has a program called RealVGA that does the same thing. I don't think it works on Raphael. Is there a utility that does this for the Fuze or Touch Pro?:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Scalage:
Yes there is, it's calles wvgafix3. It only supports switching between wvga, vga and sqvga though.

Hope this helps :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jodpel:
Thanks!

I saw this program. I was focused on finding something that would switch to QVGA for playing my old games. I've had windows PDAs since they were called a Palm PC. I think Microsoft got sued for that one. Anyway, since you specifically mentioned it, I tried it instead of passing it by. It works great. My games play smoothly in square VGA were they get laggy in real vga. Very odd. It's always been that way on VGA, though. I had a Toshiba e800 on PPC 2003 and it behaved exactly the same way.

Everything is a bit "squished", but it plays very smoothly and that's good enough for me! :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] hilaireg:
Now I know that most seasoned HTC & XDA folks have already discovered what I am stating in the next five paragraphs ...

The Buttons applet in Personal -> Settings in the latest HTC 5.05.00.00 (5.05.405.1 WWE) stock ROM only provides a single button option which appears as Button 1 (Hold). The Button 1 (Hold) maps to a Long press of the Send hardware key. Snooping the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys, one finds a sub-key of 40C6 which corresponds to Long Send from what I can gather.

Additionally, some hardware keys are being intercepted by services/applications that come bundled as part of the stock ROM - these are:

- Long Press End Key: invoked when one performs a Long press of the End hardware key

- Volume Up/Down: launches the HTC Volume (System/Ring) applet

- Home: which returns to TF3D Home (or Today) on a Short hardware key press

- Back: which issues a return/cancel on a Short hardware key press

- Send: which launches the Phone applet/initiates a call

- End: which return to TF3D Home (or Today)/ends a call

- Button: which issues OK/Select

Some further searching on the XDA site gives us the XCSdM Fuze PP Mod gem from XCSdM (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3127272&postcount=126).

There's also the short_XXXXX.lnk shortcuts that can be placed in the Windows folder.

And lastly, there are numerous other 3rd party applications which perform hardware and softkey button mapping - some free, most aren't, and come at the cost of some overhead.

I had figured it might be a simple matter of adding the missing sub-keys (for long & short press) to the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys so that I could change the assignments of desired hardware/softkey buttons via the Buttons applet in Personal -> Settings ... apparently not.

So my question(s) ... finally :)

The Ideal Answer

1) Are there other sub-key entries that map to the hardware buttons (ex: 40C6); if so, can some kind soul point me in that direction?

Cause Nothing Seems As Simple As I Thought

1) As I suspect that this would have to be a fairly low-level running process; does anyone know of a program that leverages the LNK files in the Windows folder and the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys registry key?

XCSdM's CAB provides this type of functionality (see Post) for the PTT button; it would be nice to have similar applet(s) for the remaining hardware keys.

As usual, insight from the fine folks in this community would be greatly appreciated. I've only been part of this community for a few weeks and have to say that I really appreciate the willingness to share experiences and knowledge; it has made the learning curve less steep than it would have been ... hopefully one day I can return the same to others.

* EDIT *

Solution: XCSdM PTTMod for the Raphael solves the problem.
