I hate it when that happens.

To begin, there were two ATT OEM WM6 roms relevant to the 8525 that I noticed deep in the bowels of XGA.

I chose the later file (higher revision numbers) I found it here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Available Original Shipped WM6 ROM Versions

From comm manager when I click the tower button on within a second the spinning windoze icon shows something is happening. It then starts "sniffing" for my preset wifi connection (ATT supplied 2wire portal 802.11g). :cool:

Now, if yours does not show the spinning windoze working icon when you turn on wifi? :eek: There obviously is a problem. This could be software, or hardware related (duh). If there is no error message related to "wifi is not an option, unavailable, or screwed" then my first guess is there is something missing or damaged in the ROM update that was applied to your device. As far as I know all 8525 (herm100) were shipped with wm5. It had been mentioned in the volumes of xda that the first AT&T WM6 rom was a little buggy. Try the later released AT&T WM6 update.

It was a run file so no muss no fuss. Sync the phone run the update from the pc, three minutes later the phone is flashed to ATT WM6 professional. :rolleyes:

You could take it to a ATT shop? But, I think that without a doubt they would hand it back and say you need a new phone with a 20 year contract and 3g data plan even Obama would blush at. :eek:

Try the hard reset. take a picture of the startup screens so you have the numbers and see if the wifi startup is working after the reset. If not then compare the numbers to the above mentioned roms. If the indications are you have the first issue of WM6 from ATT try flashing the second release. If that still fails then your device could indeed have a hardware problem.

The wifi is indeed built into the system and if that chip on the board is not working it could be a overly expensive problem. Possibly a shop has a working board they would swap out cheap? Otherwise, it is a fun phone you can keep notes on, run gps software if you have a bluetooth gps receiver and software like tomtom.

To be honest the wifi on my 8525 has been convenient when around the house to check the local weather radar when I hear a thunder outside, or browse headlines from the porcelain room or even leave messenger turned on incase a gamer friend is looking for someone to get shot up in a game.

I have used the live search voice thing to amaze the neighbors once. But, the limited range of wifi is a real drawback to how truly wonderful that addition could be.

HELP Please! Wi-Fi not working!!!

Hi to XDA all users :)!!!

MY Hermes - HTC TyTN [Herm200]

I bought HTC Hermes myself year ago. :)

there was flashed a WM5.0, I've just downloaded from here HARD SPL & WM6,1 (Custom) Flashed. ;)

Wi-Fi will works on WM5.0. ;)

Well here I am at 6.1 flashed and now is not working Wi-Fi. When i pressed Power ON - loading long and nothing happens. :confused:

Other methods are also tried on Commanager and Settings - but did not help.

What do I need to do my dear.

HELP! :(

Thank you for your attention! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CrowdedCranium:
Hi Nurk.

Since the wifi worked on wm5 but failed after the 6.1 flash. I would guess the problem is in the 6.1 components. You might start with contacting the kitchen rom you employed for WM6.1 thread and see if this has happened to others. Next step would be to check the radio rom version. I did see on xda an assortment of Radio roms.

If your not totally in love with the current rom you have flashed? Try another 6.1 or even a 6.5 and see whats poppin.

Hi all,

I flashed my bosses Blackstone/HTC HD with duttys 2.1 rom when it was first released...then upgraded it last week with 2.8.

He then pointed out that his emails were no longer working... there were not pulled down like when on 2.1. However, they all work over wifi just not when its over the data connection...only his ms exchange (emails from his job) actually works. Hotmail and Gmail dont.

I then thought ok, I will download the official rom from HTC...done that and left it on friday. He came in today saying its still the same.

Has anybody else heard of this problem? Any help or advice would appreciated.

Cheers

Did you make sure the T-Mobile proxy is disabled after you upgraded? I know that stops the HD data connection working straight out of the box with T-Mobile in the UK.

Hi,

I use the Hyperdragon IV ROM.

When I connect my Kaiser with my USB to my PC, the Kaiser starts the USB modem. I does not connect with ActiveSync anymore.

Before I had a choice between modem and Activesync. But during driving my car, just when I met a bump, I pushed to start the USB modem all the time by accident.

So, how can I get this option back?

Hello there.

I have tried WeatherMaster v1.3 to change my weather location,unfortunately,perhaps,there are differencies between the old TF3D and new TF3D2 and now when I want to display weather,the TF3D2 keeps restarting. Also Todayview in Calendar stops working(because it displays weather as well). Can please someone post me original manilafile to restore the damaged one or point me,how to? And how can I add new location for weather to TF3D2?

Thanks in advance.

Anyone got a drag and drop file explorer that works on WVGA touch screen? Think this would be brilliant on the Touch HD and make file navigation so much better.

Ideally I'd want the double tap to open, option to highlight by dragging over icons and then drag while holding pen down, a bit like on windows but using the stylus rather than the mouse.

Any ideas?

Hi Radeon,

Yes, Total Commander is very good but it does not do the drag and drop which I would like.

Any ideas of ones that suppor drag and drop?

Hmm, it does do drag and drop, but just not in the Windows Directory. Wonder why that is?

[Touch HD General] NightOwl692:
Hi all,

I just upgraded a couple of days ago to Dutty's latest ROM. Thanks to Dutty for the ROM its great stuff and thanks to CrackWhore for writing the dummies guide to installing it. I had it all messed up until I found that.

Anyway I renamed a copy of of the MSVC exe (voicecmd.exe) to REDIAL.EXE and then copied it into the Windows directory and overwrote the original using Total Commander. I tested it and my double tap on the answer button of my headset was working as expected and starting MSVC - all was good.

Then I soft reset my phone and the next day I went to double tap for voice command and instead it did a redial. Weird right. Anyway I tried copying the file over again using Total Commander it prompted to replace the smaller file "Redial.exe" I confirmed and then got an error stating "Cannot copy or move file!". So I look in the windows directory to see what's there and to my suprise there are two files "REDIAL.EXE" and "Redial.exe"! WTF! When did Windows become case sensitive?

I tried deleting the uppercase version using Total Commander and got "Could no delete 1 files(s)!". Same happens if I try and delete Redial.exe.

Any suggestions on how I might fix this?
[Touch HD General] vangrieg:
What's weird about it? There's a file in ROM called redial.exe, and it does exactly this - redial the last dialed number, it's weird to expect a file with such a name to do something else if you ask me.

If you do want to overwrite this file with something else though, try to copy the file you want to rename for somewhere else, not \Windows, rename it there and then copy to \Windows using TC or Resco Explorer - this should work. It doesn't matter what case you use, I think.
[Touch HD General] NightOwl692:
Hi vangried, thanks for the reply but I think you missed a bit of my message.

I did exactly as you suggest to replace the file with a copy of voicecmd.exe renamed redial.exe in the first place. Then after a soft reset I've wound up with two copies in the windows folder - one uppercase and one title case. A soft rest shouldn't change any files let alone put two files with the same name but different case in the same folder.

I was trying the process you suggest and getting the error described in my first post.
[Touch HD General] NewMan82:
Worked for me

I replaced Redial.exe using the same case and it worked for me.

I'm using HTC diamond, WM6, ROM 2.0.X

I used this to get rid of annoying redial when I accidentally puch the button of my BT headset.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
I recently got into cooking my own personal ROMs, and realized that every time I get a new kitchen/ROM or flash a new radio, I have to make sure the rilphone.dll file is the correct one for my radio. Well, more accurately, I realized how annoying it can be.

Yes, it can be done with UC and the appropriate CAB for the user's current radio, but I wanted to create an easier way to do it so that the user doesn't have to think about it. Considering how many times the TP/Fuze keyboard layout question is asked in the Raphael forums, I'd say any kind of automation is good automation ;)

My answer to this issue is rilphoneAuto.exe, a .NET CF 2.0 app that reads the user's current radio version, determines if the appropriate RIL DLL is available (through an XML configuration file), and edits the "DLL" entry under HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL to point to this particular DLL.

In order for this app to work, you have to include all the RIL DLLs you'd like to support in your ROM, and change the rilphoneAuto.xml file to have an entry for each of those DLLs. It's a very simple format, don't worry :)

I have attached rilphoneAuto in OEM and EXT formats. Both attachments contain the app, GSM RIL DLLs for radio versions 1.12.25.19 and 1.14.25.05, and the XML config file preconfigured with the aforementioned DLLs.

*** IMPORTANT: You must add rilphoneAuto to one of your config*.txt files in order for the app to start on first boot customization if you are using the OEM package. The line you'll need to add is:

EXEC:\Windows\rilphoneAuto.exe

The EXT package contains add2config.txt that ervius kitchen 9.7 can work with, so you don't have to mess with config*.txt files yourself.

ALSO IMPORTANT: I've only tested this on my GSM Raphael, so I have no idea if it works on other devices. Theoretically, it should, as long as HTC keeps the fields in their RILEQUIPMENTINFO struct the same throughout their devices. Please post successes/failures.

UPDATE: I updated the app to version 1.0.1. It should now support CDMA devices, at least CDMA Raphaels. Unfortunately, the RILEQUIPMENTINFO struct is different there and I don't know how to get the actual radio version, so on CDMA devices you must use the protocol string. The XML file format remains the same, but instead of putting the radio version inside the "version" attribute, you must put the protocol version. The version string is case-insensitive.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tonio94:
Could you explain what's the point in changing the ril.dll please ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
rilphone.dll is the primary communications channel between the OS and the radio ROM. Each version of the radio ROM *should* be used with its own rilphone.dll because of new features, bugfixes, etc. While usually other versions will still function, using the correct DLL will result in the best combination of features, (lack of) bugs, and power savings.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
I only found ril.dll in my phone.

I looked in the kitchen for my ROM and it has ril.dll and rilgsm.dll in it.

ril.dll is in PhoneRedist

rilgsm.dll is in OEM\OEMDrivers

I have switched radios many times. Some have not worked well.

I searched in the registry and it only found reference to rilgsm.dll, but as I said, I do not see it in the files on my phone.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
Theoretically, it should be whatever is referenced in "Dll" under HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL. My guess would be rilgsm.dll.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
Problem is that rilgsm.dll is referenced in the registry, but I cannot find the file on my phone. I only find ril.dll under \windows.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
If it's in OEMDrivers, it should be on your device. Make sure you've got hidden/system/ROM files visible.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
I always do ,but I checked again to be sure. It was set to see all, and only ril.dll is there.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
For s&g I went to copy rilgsm.dll from a kitchen into my phone.

The message came up about the file exists and do I want to overwrite it.

It still does not show up, but it must be there.

I went into total commander. The rilgsm file shows up there.

Now to my next question. When I switch radios should I copy both ril.dll and rilgsm.dll from the OS that the radio came from into my phone?

Currently I use 03.02.11, but I may switch in the future and I do not really know what dll files the cooks are using.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
As far as I know, ril.dll should stay the same, but I'm not 100% sure. I do know that ril.dll is what other apps interface with to get RIL-related data, so my guess is that it's probably just an aggregation of functions that calls into other DLLs to actually perform them. Again, that's a guess, so I don't really know. Also, since it's not under OEMDrivers, that's another clue that it's not OEM-specific and therefore would not depend on a certain radio version.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
So I copied the ril files to my phone. Did a soft reset and the radio would not work.

I think there are two factors.

The radio I use is for a wizard, but I think it was the wiza200 which is not the same as my phone. Only guessing differences.

Maybe the ril files have to be for the particular wizaversion I have and the radio both.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
I really don't know. I've never owned a Wizard, so I don't know about its hardware differences and stuff like that :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
Had to hard reset to get phone to work again.

Went ahead and tried changing just the rilgsm.dll file.

Once again dead phone. Hard reset again.

Guess this concept does not work for the wizard or it depends on the wiza version.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
You really shouldn't have to hard reset if it's the wrong DLL. You should just be able to delete it with Total Commander. That will restore the original DLL from the ROM. At least it does on my Raphael :p
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
I should have mentioned I did that first and then reset the phone, but it still would not start the radio part. So I resorted to hard reset.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Olioaglio:
I just found this very informative thread about rilphone's function:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3354857

Maybe this can be some clarifying ;)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
Oh yeah! I completely forgot about nk.exe patching. I assume it's required on older devices as well. Thanks for the link, Olioaglio!

It should be possible to get around nk.exe patching by signing the rilphone.dll with your own certificate and installing that cert into the trusted root store. It works on the Raphael. That's the proper way to have your own stuff execute in trusted locations. Chainfire's DriverWiz can automate the process of signing a DLL and creating a CAB that installs the cert as well as the signed DLL.

RoryB, you should try using DriverWiz with that rilgsm.dll you mentioned. If it works, that means DLL signing fun for all! :D

I don't think I can make rilphoneAuto sign DLLs on first boot, so this issue has to be resolved in the ROM before distribution. The included rilphone*.dll files will have to be signed using your own cert, and that cert will have to be included in a .provxml, .rgu, or .reg file to be installed inside the proper cert store. That doesn't sound like fun, so nk.exe patching would probably be a hell of a lot easier, if a little improper.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Olioaglio:
Here's another one... very interesting stuff:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=494632

Olioaglio
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
Yep, that's what I was referring to in my last post - CABs with signed DLLs that install both the DLL and the cert so that nk.exe considers everything to be legit.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
Tried the copy over to phone with different name and changing registry key after going into flight mode.

Then stopped flight mode and the phone worked.

After a while I reset the phone and the radio did not work again.

I reset registry to original file and reset the phone. Works again.

I guess I'll stick with the rilgsm that works.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
Did you try creating a CAB with that DLL using DriverWiz? (I linked to it earlier in the thread)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
Not yet, forgot it. Will try as soon as I can.

UPDATE: DriverWiz worked for rilgsm.dll so I tried another one for ril.dll. This caused cprog.exe to come up as not a valid PPC program. So I removed the ril.cab and just have the new rilgsm.dll.

I'll test for a while.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
Ran with the new rilgsm.dll for a while, but I had to soft reset the phone once in a while to get GPRS to work. It would disconnect itself and not reconnect.

I am back to my original rilgsm.dll
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
Another update:

I was cooking S.V.I's last kitchen since he no longer has his Wizard.

I had to use Wizard Love ROM a few times to recover from something I did wrong. Afterward I would run SoftSPL with a nbf file I created that brought back my splash, IPL/SPL and radio in a single flash.

Now that I have Final Angel ROM running, I had problems with the radio getting poor signal and only getting a "G" at home. I ran my rilgsm cab file to get the dll for this radio. It has been working fine for a couple days now.

So... It seems if I install the ROM first and then install the radio it worked fine without the dll, but if I had the radio first the dll was needed. Another possibility is that the rilgsm.dll in the lastest kitchen was different.
