I've just loaded a HRC Rom and is trying to install the Diamond keyboard alhought getting some trouble and can't remember how it was fixed the last time :-) If I install P1Tator's version it only types numerics. gullum's version types nothing... what am I missing here? :confused:

Hello everyone..i know this has probably been answered but i cannot seem to find it...I have a friend that has gotten a G4 8125 that has a cingular sim card...she wants to make it so that it can go to Tmoble...but tmoble says that the "phone" has to be unlocked..i Looked into the lockiwiz program but it says you need the other sim card..tmoble wont give them a new sim card..so how do i unlock the "phone" so that they can bring it to tmobile. If i do the Hard SPL without flashing the rom and keep it...will it seem to be unlocked when they bring it to them
[G4] ericisshort:
As far as I have been able to discern, the only way to SIM unlock a G4 Wizard is to go here:

http://imei-check.co.uk/m3000unlock.php

It will cost you 20 British Pounds that you can pay by paypal.
[G4] Myrddin Wyllt:
If you're an AT&T customer, just call them and tell them you're planning on traveling, and want to use foreign pay-as-you-go SIMs while abroad. They'll talk you through the SIM unlock on the phone.

Otherwise, you are right, you will need a different SIM to use Lokiwiz. You could buy a cheap pay-as-you-go card from TMobile, I believe. Just use the minutes up, or sell the card on Craigslist when you're done with your SIM-unlock.

Do not do HardSPL for this, it has nothing to do with your issue. That's only for flashing the ROM, not for unlocking the SIM.
[G4] Cristian2003:
Hello

In the last 10 minutes i unlocked a Cingular 8125 G4 with Lokiwiz03a. Lokiwiz03 give you an unlock code to your phone. You only need a NO Cingular sim card but i think you can got from a friend or another one.

Good luck.
[G4] sa2.14:
Yeah, T-mobile works, used the card out of the old lady's phone. Lokiwiz worked for me

Hi,

I have been playing with the Manila files, and often see \Windows\HTC\Assets\ as a reference.

Like :

<Property> Name=Texture Path Value=".\Assets\Images\Common\VGA\Background_wvga.qtc"

I can't find the actual folder...

Neither can Total Commander...

Is there some way to make these files visible?

Been searching, but could not find anything...

Thanks,
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] showaco:
It doesn't exist as actual folder. I don't know how it works exactly, but its like a virtual folder. If you want to see those files, use m9editor and put your mouse cursor on top of the qtc part and it will show you the manila filename(like 4563abcd_manila) which you can then view from your files.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Gede:
Ah Thanks, didn't notice the "mouseover" info yet!
[XPERIA X1 General] THE GRIZZ:
some times the phone does not finish the boot it just stops. reseting it it 2 or 3 times solves the issue. why would a second reboot or 3rd reboot be diffent then the first one. this has happened to me on more than one rom

i think adding the arabic language support increase the tendacy of this happing...not sure
[XPERIA X1 General] Angelusz:
As you're the first one I see reporting this issue, I'm inclined to think that it's either a faulty unit or indeed the stuff you install.
[XPERIA X1 General] THE GRIZZ:
well these safemode applications seem to have the ability to tell that you did not have a proper boot(dont know how) and they can even start automatically after the second failed boot attempt

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Use the Connection Wizard.

connection wizard? sorry does that start on its own or do i jhave to start it off?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stylez:
It all depends on the ROM, some will run automatically if the sim is in, if not settings\connections\connection setup.

Have you tried to flash with a different 6.1 ROM?

I can recommend Tomal ROM´s

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] tjpearson:
Hello everyone,

I've used my PDA2K on & off for the past 5 years but have always felt it's pretty much not worth the effort using it for anything serious. The net is slow and the general Windows 2003 SE operating system fragile, I reckon I've soft reset a thousand times since owning the unit. What advice can anyone give on how to improve it's capabilities & make it less boring to use, what change should I try. I'm not worried about frying the ROM as I only use this to surf the net nowadays & thats about it, just feel it's too good to bin but want to get something more out of it than I'm getting now.

Thanks any advice on possible software changes would be appreciated.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] sevensheaven:
i would say...try win 6.5..no doubt you like that

regard stef
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] pdahunter:
The PDA2K is still the best device if you need a mobile log typing unit. It's beacuse of the built in keyboard and the big portrait format screen (wich is the best if you have to to type in lists, contact data a.s.o.). This unique feature is the reason why I can't change my PPC.

Win 6.5 for me is not so important, there are few drawbacks compared to WM2003SE (no build in Excel encryption, less usable screen area (because of hotkeys), no direct menus in office applications.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] igord2:
install wm5, when you get bored install SPB Mobile Shell, when you get bored again change the color of the menu :)

seriously its quite nice app, have nice launcher etc... try it...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] tjpearson:
Thanks

Don't get me wrong I love it but just feel I'm missing something as I'm sure it's capable of so much more.

I'll take the advice and have a play with upgrading, do current 2003 apps such as my TomTom run on the upgrades. Even if not I think I'll give it a go anyway.

Thanks again for the replies :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] + Que PPC:
Yes it works on new WM version

I think he becomes unconfortable of the buggy WMG.S (or 6.5 we use other names cause Mycrosooft hunts us) you need to taste first WM6... then 6.1 his manilla 2D is great... and then G.S is beta but fine... try it all but men

follow everything step by step at upgrading please if you have any question ask here please.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] tjpearson:
Not so Boring now

Well + Que PPC and others,

I took your advice and upgraded and its a lot less boring.

I can't sync though, it tries but the an error message appears on BA moaning about a USB port not being available.

When I now turn on the BA I get a white screeb with start and a few icons at the top and Phone + Contacts at the bottom, clicking start takes me to a black screen with icons. If I soft reset I get the red/green/blue/white stripes while it resets.

Is all this normal or am I still stuck in bootloader, I'm new to all this so what I mean is could this be something I've not finished off correctly that is stopping me syncing now.

I don't mind fixing all the other problems once I can sync OK. :confused:
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] pdahunter:
Heh tjpearson, you was searching for new use cases. I suggested to use your device more professionally. You decided to have an OS update. This way you decided the best use case for you is trouble shouting.

Seriously, I can't understand why OS upgrading is such an important thing on the BA. The benefits of the device lies in the big screen and the built in keyboard. If you search for a nice GUI take a iPhone.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] tjpearson:
No idea

Hiya pdahunter,

I have no idea what you mean or what your advising.

All I want is to surf and keep important notes plus store my gadget PDF manuals plus photography bumph.

Hey ho going for a bath now and then bed, tomos night going to watch United win, I hope, so won't be able to look at this again til Thursday night.

Hope I've no fkd this Pocket PC up with what I've done.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] + Que PPC:
come on guys!!!! why always this ends like this F***N S**T THINGS!!!

EGZTHUNDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! come on men! make your job here please...

I will prepare the scene for you a little...

@pearson

First of all please tell us wich ROM did u upload... again... please full charge your batt before UPGRADE...

Men write exactly the error message please, Meaning it says this... I guess i need to do.... I think my problem is... are worthless words here please provide exact messages. (does you enable the checkbox advanced network on setting usb settings?)

The white screen cant be posible men... I will xplain you the new OS built..

If I can guess what you've upgrade... I mean I nedd to know wich ROM are you upgrade please provide the name or the link where you find it...

FIRST: The OS 2003 didnt has the soft buttons PHONE at left bottom and right at right bottom cause the new OS are designed for PDA phones that has buttons on that place... thats all... ok.

SECOND: you said that when you tap on start it tooks you to a black screen with icons i gueeeeeeees you have WM6.5 cause since WM2003 we had start cascade menu like windows XP or VISTA or Whatever... Thats normal on WM6.5 if you want the older start menu? just... downgrade a WM6 or 6.1 it has the older start menu.

THIRD:

Well the boot screen is hardcoded in roms so... is not an issue is normal we can only change the splashscreen...

known new features and pro's for a new ROM tooks its time men I mean new apps and programs are not supported with WM2003 so this is the very first pro of upgrading...

You are not stuck on bootloader or... are you on a black screen with Serial or USB upside and downside a version... it is BOOTLOADER not the RGB screen! ok?

if it cant boots and it cant pass trough the tricolor screen well seems you need to upgrade again maybe your batt was dead on middle process and it dont have enough batt to boot... but maybe you dont wait the time... or maybe you need reupgrade a rom...

Dont be so alarmed men your device is fine calm down you are not brick jejeje

@PDAHUNTER

Seriously You need to get an Iphone the phone for kiddos... thats all I can say cause you dont help here anything...

Im gettin so frustrated and angry with this kind of guys!:mad:

If I offense somebody

Im appologized but I will not delete my post! :mad:

I will defend my point if anybody wants me to be banned its ok for me... :)

+ Que PPC
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] pdahunter:
1. I did not change nor delete anything here.:eek:

2. Again, why change the OS to a Version the device is not made for. The only reason I can see is a better system GUI or new applications with a better GUI. That's why I suggest to take a iPhone if this is important.

3. I'm frustrated because I'm realy interested in the technical benefits of WM6.x. Better WLAN Connection? Stereo Bluetooth? Some unique apps that doesn't run on wm2003?:confused:

But as soon somebody speaks about WM6 on the BA the focus changes to trouble shouting.:(

4. Why it's not helpful to say "Don't change the OS version if you search for better use cases!" ?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] + Que PPC:
Great!! you have your OWN ANSWER

EXACTLY! thats why OS upgrading imports... thats why this matters!

So does A2dp run on wm2003... noup!!!! it runs till wm5 aku version upgrade...

Congrats.. oh and the issues on boot and other things are almost non follow step by step processes...! :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] sevensheaven:

Sorry, Sorry, Sorry

WOH I didn't mean to upset anyone here, I'm learning.

Have no idea of what I'm doing apart from trying to update my BA to surf the net faster, be better to use and so I don't have to soft reset every 2 minutes. This is my 1st attempt, if I've gone in too deep then tell me, I'll back grade to 2003 and start again with whatever you recommend.

You know your stuff so stay friendly, calm down and I can help you set up race suspension on a Yamaha R6 for the best cornering Or if you want advice on patching a Technomate Satellite box I'm your man.

I will go back to 2003 and you tell me what to update, cos you are the men that know, I defo don't, nice one !!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] + Que PPC:
Oh jpearson you are not the one in troubles here...

If not you just need to be sure follow this steps exactly how is said if you have any question ask here please ok

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THE GRIZZ:
many people recomend that you do a hard reset after flashing a new ROM:

1-why?

2-does it really improve anything are there any people who think that this is a myth? ive even seen people claming that this solved their battery drange problem

3- whats the difference between a freshly flashed rom and a hard reset device?

4-when exactly is the best time: after the flash directly or after the first reboot when the phone finishes installing stuff from extended memory?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongrif:
I'm wondering the same thing...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tobi As:
Me too

but i've heard that there can be some "rests" of the old rom after flashing a new.

And the hard reset clears the whole memory, so the system is "clean".

If I'm wrong tell me how it is right.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackleung:
Personally, I don't believe this. I never did and never have a problem.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fards:
the argument is that a rom image (that you flash) doesn't always fill the entire memory space so there's a chance that some of the arrays could contain old data as the RUU doesn't clear the space first.

It doesn't hurt to hard reset whether this scenario happens or not, just hold the hardkeys down during first boot after it comes out of bootloader ..
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THE GRIZZ:
the plot thickens

even the cooks thinks its not worthwhile

ill do it anyway (even if its a myth) since there is no need to wait for the rom to boot for the first time and no extra time is needed as fards says
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concentrate:
From my experience, you really need to hard reset itje's touchit roms. I'm not sure why, but when I didn't hard reset, the device felt really really slow. This is very noticeable. After the hard reset, everything will be fast again.

I'm using jack's lite rom now, but I don't find that you need to hard reset on this rom.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowmike:
i also never hard reset my device after a rom upgrade. never had problems.

ive tested my self acouple times tryin a rom for a day then hard reseting and see no difference in file structure, (backups) or registry (reg dump and compare)

so i do not hard reset my device after a hard reset

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatso485:
+1 for the not really worth it but do it anyway on the xperia (even in itje roms)

if this poll was on the wizard forum, im sure everybody will say its a MUST. so far only %30 here think its worth doing
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THE GRIZZ:
yeah its a bit weird that only %30 think its worthwhile considering the number of people who do it when you read the itje ROM thread
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norti:

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itje:
I recommend hard-reset after flash...

It happens so many times that when ppl flashing my roms, and get bugs that I dont have, or many others dont have..

And what has been the sollution for many??? Hard-reset...suddenly they report back that it fixed their issue??

And how can ya'll "non-hard-spls-belivers" explain that? :p

But no matter what..

If you feel it helps, so do it

If you think it wont help...then dont

ah, and one thing more...

If you flash only the same build, basicly same roms, just with minor updates, then hard-reset after flash might not be needed cause the conflicting residue in nand might not conflict with the new flash...

perhaps just speculations and sci-fi....

But I will recommend hard-spl for any new flash, untill someone can hardcore prove the opposite...

but as said before...ya'll do what you want :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buchman:
:rolleyes: I always recomend hard-spl for flashing new firmware, but thats off topic :p
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxcheng:
I'll do everytime after flashed a new rom. 宁可信其有，不可信其无,believe it just cost you press some keys together, lol:P
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J-Pro:
After flashing, during the first boot, there already IS something that looks like a hard reset. Something like "auto-hard-reset". Therefore allow me to ask you 3 questions please:

1. Is this "auto-hard-reset" similar to the manual hard reset(when we push simultaneously left, right and soft reset key, or via Start>Settings>System>Clear Storage)?

2. What exactly did you mean in your quote(its part that I've marked bold)? I've never heard anything about holding any keys DURING the first boot. Everywhere is written: "Make hard reset AFTER you flash." Or maybe I missed something?

3. What if NOT to wait for this "auto-hard-reset", and just manually, BEFORE it happens, make an HR(pushing simultaneously left, right and soft reset key) in time when firmware splash screen is showed? It would save the time... but is it harmless?

Thank you very much for your answers!

How do you make WM6 not change all appointments when it changes Time Zones, or switches to or from DST?

I'm very tired of having to re-enter all of my appointments because the clock on the phone changes. Just because the time changes doesn't mean appointments change.

I can somewhat tolerate this when traveling because there aren't as many appointments to change, but DST is a royal pain. A 5 PM appointment remains a 5 PM appointment whether it's DST or not, or if I'm on Central Time or Eastern.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redbandana:
get advancedconfig newest version if you do not already have this built into your rom. Scroll down to miscellaneous and disable both dst settings. Give that a shot.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hacknfrack:
I have the stock ATT ROM. I believe I can disable DST without any add-ons, but why would I do that? If I disable it, then my phone won't undate and I'll have to do that. You've just replaced a problem with a problem.

my clock changed by itself. However, my appointments start/finish times got pushed an hour as well. So either way my fix would not work. I just noticed that.
