Sorry but this did not work for me.....

Do i have to make any other changes????Because i replaced the dll and i made the soft res....but unfortunately nothing....

what gives?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] benko286:
anybody knows how to cook this into rom ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] otacon:
Not able to overwrite. The file in Windows is Read Only. Any idea??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zwaps:
Yeah, my Diamond volume is too low with the new ROM, but I can't overwrite that DLL no matter what.

Can someone make a cab or something?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zwaps:
Update: What seemed to work was rename in Windows and then copy the new file with Totalcommander on the cellphone.

HOWEVER, while the new volume manager shows up, it's still not quite loud enough for me.

Could you add just a tad more, in case I am in a noisy environment?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kosrol:
use resco explorer and i think total comander makes it possible to overwrite system files....

thanks for the fix... i kiss the soil you walk on...
[G1 General] t4g:
Hi guys I just got my G1 and I so sad because I have a really weird problem with it.

When the phone is in sleep mode (screen off) sometimes the unlock screen shows, but sometimes weird things happen: only the top bar appear then fade and the screen stay black although still on (I can see the back-light on). Sometimes the screen fades but not to black, to random colors like green, red or blue and then to black.

At first I thought this was an software bug, I'm a software engineer working with cell phones development and I never see a hardware problem like that. But I changed everything software related and I still have this problem (spl, radio and OS), so this has to be a hardware problem unless I'm forgetting something.

[update]

Looks like it happens more often in R33 (original and JF) than in 1.5 (Haykuro H build).

Anyone with ideas?

I'm in Brazil, so I bought it through an importer, I have a warranty if I need to replace the phone, but that would take some weeks, so I'm trying hard to fix it by myself.
[G1 General] Senorkabob:
I know at least 10 people with a G1... and have NEVER seen this issue with ANYONE.

Dude I would highly recommend replacing the phone.

I myself am a software engineer as well.... this behavior is not conducive to something buggy software would do.

My guess would be a faulty wire connecting to your phones board.
[G1 Apps and Games] vizax:
In the below thread, there is a Demo APK that Google used. In it there is an image viewer, that is pretty nice, and would, IMO, be alot nicer to have than the default viewer.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=453686

Where to find it:

1) Follow the instructions in the link above to get the apk (for those who dont alreay have it)

2) Open API Demos and scroll down to "Views"

3) Scroll down to "Image Switcher"

4) Admire the cool image viewer, while pretending that the pipsqueak shown wouldn't actually be just a snack for your own dog. :D:D

I would imagine that since there is a 'template' someone could re-create something similar, but better and more polished. :)
[G1 Apps and Games] vizax:
So, Astro File Manager has a built in image viewer, just like what I was talking about.... Its a temporary solution, but I'd still rather have a stand-alone app. :p :D
[G1 Apps and Games] punkweakling:
yeah the default image viewer definitely needs to be swipable or thumbnailable (word? LOL).

Image picking is a shambles in other apps too. Should be directory based rather than showing all images by default. or is that up to each individual dev?
[G1 Apps and Games] vizax:
I've been in touch with fabrantes, the dev for Rock On, and he and I and whoever else wants to join in, will be starting a viewer app (not sure how in depth we will go, as we haven't done any planning, but...) keep an eye on the forums for it.
[Touch HD General] szpirit:
Would any of you change your HD for the new Diamond2? I can't decide which to purchase. I like the idea of HD's larger screen and 3.5mm headset port but concerned about all of the postings re audio and video stuttering. I look forward to your opinions.
[Touch HD General] Radeon123:
I like the Diamond 2 but I would never have one as I love the HD mainly for it's bigger screen and 3.5mm jack, plus I think it looks nicer.

I have never had any stuttering on my HD or my older Diamond, but even if you get the Diamond 2 it has practically the same specs as the HD but in a smaller package.
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
I have never had any audio problems but have noticed a small amount of video shuttering but after a while i didn't even notice it unless I was thinking about it. When the video shuttered the audio was rock solid, in some wierd way that lessened the problem considerably. Also, I would not give up the headphone jack and small screen. I still am wondering why anyone would buy a TD2 over a THD.
[Touch HD General] galaxys:
touch HD is the one...the bigger screen makes all the difference.
[Touch HD General] MAMeingast:
Totally agree on that... :D
[Touch HD General] lpaso:
I got a Diamond2 for testing purpose, and it's just a GREAT piece of hardware ! I know the hardware is exactly the same as the HD, but its speed and responsiveness is far above the HD's. I'll not change my HD for a Diamond2, but I must admit that it's just faster in every way.
[Touch HD General] leftkats:
Since the bigger screen was the reason to buy the HD, i dont see the reason why should i get the diamond 2.... as for ui responsiveness i think if you use another rom on the hd, would make it same as the diamond 2 (maybe a bit slower, since the HD uses higher resolution)!!
[Touch HD General] PoisonWolf:
Guys,

Does the TD2 have an actual GPS antenna or is it a aGPS system? I ask because if I'm not mistaken, the THD uses an aGPS. In my opinion, that's the only difference between the two phones besides the screen size, the actual GPS antenna versus aGPS system.

Cheers.
[Touch HD General] lpaso:
I already use different roms, and it's not even near the same responsiveness as the Diamond2 ;) (and for info. the Diamond2 has exactly the same resolution : 800*480).
[Touch HD General] mallman:
why would any of us think the touch diamond 2 would perform any better? The problem isnt the hardware that the HD has, its the drivers that HTC refuses to improve. I imagine that the diamond2 will have the same issues. The HD screen beats everything out there and should be your choice unless you are in the US and need 35. Then you can get the aussie version of the HD but you will pay much more for it
[Touch HD General] jaypeev_9:
Both HD and Diamond 2 looks great! But I'll still choose HD. :)
[Touch HD General] Nightstalker79:
The touch HD has a GPS receiver, aGPS is assisted GPS which is an extension to the GPS chipset, that help get a faster fix through distance between cells(triangulations of ones positions is measured in the same way).
[Touch HD General] tboy2000:
Lets just keep our beautiful 3.8 HD and put the Topaz/Diamond 2 Rom on it and have the best of both worlds. I have.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scotthubbard:
I received my diamond 2 on Saturday (yay) and couldn't wait to start playing with it. However it does have one major problem straight out of the box and i wonder if anyone else has experienced it.

The opera browser is very unstable. It triggers a general exception error from Windows and either constantly asks to send error reports (duely turned off!) or just shuts itself down. Anyone else experienced or found a fix?

Secondly the browser keeps trying to render in mobile mode unless i select the link to go to HTML, how do i turn that off cos the screen renders full screen beautifully.

A few other annoyances, The data connection only seems to work on HSDPA and not GPRS, this is a potential big problem.

The youtube client only works with a wifi connection, what!! HSDPA is easily fast enough to stream, is this specific to my device.

Anny assistance would be appreciated as i would like to know if these problems are specific to my device or just general annoyances.

Cheers.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deechte:
I don't recognize your problems at all. Opera hasn't crashed one single time on me since I got the D2 last friday. It works very fast and stable, better than any Opera cab I installed on my old Cruise. Full screen (not mobile view) works excellent and is always default in my Opera.

I haven't deliberately used the data connection over GPRS yet, but I have seen the G symbol instead of the 3G or H symbol, when being in some areas. So at least it does see the GPRS network correctly. I have no reason to assume it wouldn't work there.

The youtube application works great too. Completely stable and fast, again not like any Youtube cab I tried on my old Polaris before. And I just tested, it works through wifi and 3g.

I'm sorry for your problems. I am really surprised on how great my Diamond2 is. I think they really hit the nail on the head this time. I don't know how to solve your problems, but if this behaviour happens even directly after you hard reset the device, I guess your only option is to send it back.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finji:
haven't had any of that really myself and i actually tried to 'overload' opera. I run it fullscreen an all.

have you tried the general discussion forums? If it's opera itself, you'll maybe find something there.

youtube is a bit sluggish at times in 'hq mode' but fine otherwise for me

why is hsdpa over gprs a problem? Both are for data, just hsdpa is quite a bit faster even when taking the fastest gprs vs. the slowest hsdpa data rate.

unless networkcoverage is an issue in your case i wouldn't personally pick 2G over 3G..

maybe you're simply the unlucky one, harsh as it may be.. have you tried HTC customer helpdesk?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] root beer:
I haven't had those problems with opera, haven't seen it crash once yet. Have you tried a hard or soft reset?

I do notice opera on the Diamond 2 is terribly laggy compared to opera mini on my old mobile. Tried skyfire and it's worse, iris about the same.

I found the youtube app works great over HSDPA (and wifi), now this version I do prefer and can't find any faults with it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trinode:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilcovh:

but when using quickmenu it always shows the opera runing.

you cannot stop it weird
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trinode:
Push internet maybe? (just guessing)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scotthubbard:
cheers for the replies. I've actually hard reset the device aswell as soft resets. however opera still remained unstable. the problem seems to be with windows though as the error message was from windows and an install of opera 9.5 beta 2 caused the same problem. seems ok now though so will have to to monitor it.

i have to say youtube is a concern as it won't connect unless on wifi.

may take some getting used to or may need sending back, either way i think the software is at fault though, i think the device itself is top notch.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scotthubbard:
I say it's ok and 30 seconds later opera crashes. dame windows and it's nuances!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deechte:
I've experienced some strange behaviour of windows and some programs on my old Cruise some time. Frequent crashes, windows errors and other annoyances, like frequently loosing activesync connection and not seeing the sd-card. In the end, it was caused by a faulty board inside the device. After replacement of the board all problems where gone. I had spent hours trying other ROM's and hard resetting before that.

What I'm trying to say is, that sometimes hardware faults are just causing minor problems, while the device works well most of the time. Then you're eager to think it's a software or ROM problem, but it ain't always. If I were you, I'd send it back. I do understand that's not something you'd really like to do when it just arrived :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trinode:
Tried the proxy thing?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wibberly:
As Trinode says you really do want to turn off the proxy setting within the connections page of WM itself. T-Mobile, for example, always adds the useless proxy setting which will almost certainly crash Opera when you look at Gmail.

Why oh why does the connection wizard still insist on adding a proxy when you clearly don't need it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scotthubbard:
Thanks for all the replies, this forum really is bloody usefull!

I have tried the proxy thing, and was waiting to respond to test but incredibly this seems to have done the trick! Opera hasn't died since i removed the proxy. Thanks trinode.

I'm with you wibberly, can't see why on earth they need this proxy setting in there, my data connection is far more stable and opera now seems to work fine. Weird!

One thing though is that the youtube app stil doesn't register a network connection through the phone signal, WIFI only. Wonder if this is a T-Mobile data restriction? The fine print from them does say that you shouldn't stream videos. Didn't affect my last contract though. That said i can't say i'm too bothered so long as the device itself is happy.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deechte:
Maybe you can try it with someone elses SIM?

Damn proxies indeed. They always block all my e-mail connections. Turning it off is the first thing I do.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smadger:
I too had the opera crash problem, but after ttrying to get hotmail to work in TouchFlo natively by turning off the Proxy settings, I've killed two birds with one stone... Stable Opera + Hotmail in TF3D! Wohoo.

Now, who can help with my next query?

I've tried to set the max number of tabs to 6, (as I that's the way I had it set up on my old D1,) under opera:config, and change the user id to sgh-i900 so I can get BBC iPlayer, but doesn't matter how many times I do this, (and press save settings, just incase you ask,) every time I launch Opera, it reverts back to it's default settings, so I'm stuck with 2 crappy tabs and no BBC iPlayer!!!!!!

Any ideas?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bambony:
Just to reiterate the above. I received my TD2 today on T-Mobile from mobilephonesdirect.com and Opera was a crashfest until I removed the proxy setting. IT IS A MUST DO SETTING CHANGE!

I'm confused with my new G1. It's unlocked, with code from operator but don't have data plan and sim card. Phone isn't touched yet with custom roms, hspls etc...

I don't know what to do first: register the G1 without a sim or data plan OR Root, Hack, and Flashing your G1/Dream

And at the end need to flash this Updated 3-3-09 - JFv1.43 for UK RC9 firmware! or will loose root access ?

Please somebody explain me :)
[G1 Android Development] ICBM:
Root, Hack, and Flashing your G1/Dream

if you still need to register after you root, then follow that.
[G1 Android Development] mlevin:
Maybe I'm a bit naive, but I am trying to get vpnc running on the G1.

I found the ARM version of this in a .deb file and downloaded it to my ubuntu box (I tried both the "arm" and "armel" versions from this page: http://packages.debian.org/lenny/vpnc). I did "ar -x packagename.deb" to extract and then got the vpnc binary.

I did an adb push to my phone and put it in /system/sd.

Then I did an adb shell and tried to execute /system/sd/vpnc and got "not found."

I'm sure it is not that easy to do, but can anyone point me in the right direction? Is this method hopelessly flawed? Shouldn't a binary of vpnc compiled for this architecture work?
[G1 Android Development] billc.cn:
not sure if the c libraries are complete on android

but if it tells you "not found" you probably forgot to chmod

yeah, that was my first guess as well, but I 777ed it and ran it as root.

I went into the dir, did chmod 777 vpnc and then ./vpnc and still got "not found."

I’m sure someone has solved this, but searched several ways without success.

I have an HTC device with an USB out for headsets. I want to be able to route the phone conversation through an audio system so folks in the room can hear both sides of the conversation. I tried USB to 3.5mm adapters, but it seems that this scenario is used for listening to the media player, and not for the “phone calls”. Any thoughts on how to do this with adapters/converters?

If this has already been done, a URL referral would be great.

[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Hello Everyone,

For quiet some time now I've been trying to get root on my German G1 on RC9.

I've been trying to follow the guides that are on this forum, but everything on here is so scattered D:

Right now I'm having difficulties while trying to downgrade to RC7.

What I've done so far:

Get the SD Cards Serial.

Reverse it.

Zero the first two digits.

Make a goldcard image.

I then formatted the SD Card and copied the RC7 DREAIMG.NBH onto it.

After that, I went into linux to dd the goldcard on the card aswell.

Now...After I try to access the bootloader, it will Load the Image, Check the Image, and then give me the usual "not allow" error.

What am I doing wrong?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Anyone able to help me out?
[G1 Android Development] nk111:
How exactly did you make the goldcard.img? Did you use qmat or the online generator? I don't think that you need to reverse or zero anything for the online tool...

PM me if you need further assistance in creating the goldcard.
[G1 Android Development] kingzero90:
Yes you need to reverse the serial and zero the first byte.

@Bavilo

We need more details to help you. So post everything you did so far. (CID, commands you used to format and to flash the img, ...)
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Thanks for the responses!

Here's a little more info.

CID: 03534453553032478021452741008b8a

(could someone generate a correct goldcard.img for me?)

I formatted the card in windows. Fat32, 4096 allocation size.

I wasn't sure on the dd part, but this is what I used:

dd if=goldcard.img of=/dev/sdd

that gave me the correct response. Although the card is called sdc1. Maybe that was the problem?

Also I do not have a usb card reader, so the card is still plugged into the G1 while I'm doing all this. Will that make it not work?

Thanks in Advance
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Finally I got it!

I used the wrong node for the sd card. It was sdc....not sdd...<_<

I will be performing the downgrade now. I'll report back if there are any further problems. Stay tuned ^^
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Not good D:

"Update Terminate

UPDATE FAIL"

now what...

Edit:

The SD card now seems to be dead...I can no longer format it. So I'll have to get a new one first and then attempt to update my G1 again...sighhhh
[G1 Android Development] kingzero90:
The sd card shouldnt die that easily. Try to put the card in your computer and open gparted on linux. You should see the card in the list.

If it doesnt show reinsert your card and post the output of "lsusb" and "dmesg |tail -30".

If you want i can help you in german. My jabber name is kingzero@jabber.ccc.de.
[G1 Android Development] tulamidan:
Hmmm...

I'm there now too... I have a german G1 RC9 and struggle to downgrade it.

I used the 2GB card of the phone

Online generated the Goldcard.img

DD't it to the sde (thats the correct one) using a card reader

copied the DREAIMG.nbh (maybe capitalisation?) on the sd

reboot -> not allowed and a red number ->Bootloader ->nothing

Did I miss anything? maybe first copy and the dd? I thought I tried it.. but hard to remember at 2am and fixing the filesystem 'cause I dd't to sda Grrrrr
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Ok I managed to root my phone now!

Turns out that the slot for the mircosd card on my card reader was busted...<_<

Also the reason the Update Failed in the first place, was because I copied the extracted DREAIMG.NBH file onto the sdcard using ubuntu. Which must have corrupted it.

The way that made it work was to go into windows, move the RC7.zip onto the sdcard, and extract it on the sdcard. The update passed the first time :)

Thanks to everyone who has helped me!

Using linux do a "dmesg" and check the node name of your sd card. Make sure you dded the goldcard onto the right sdcard. If you still get the "not allow" error, then you're goldcard is at fault. Maybe you didn't type the correct cid?
