[HTC Excalibur] rilbel:
Are you even connected to ActiveSync when in bootloader mode? I don't mean you, I mean in general.

And btw, did you try to do what I suggested you?

Connect the phone, get it in bootloader, try to flash the T-Mo ROM and clickon AUTO.bat, an image is on the guide with pics sticky thread in here... that should open and ms-dos thing, even if it opens the loader and doesn't go over 3%, this time... click on the RUU icon.. it worked for me last night and for the T-Mo ROM you shouldn't need any sda or surreal stuff. Try it...

You can get the T-Mo ROM from their web-site or here too.

I know you can go on youtube and look up upgrade to kavana, there is a guy who has it for download. Thing is T-Mo asks you for a cell number to verify you are the owner of the phone so you might have to insert your friend's number.
[HTC Excalibur] Inimical:
No, while in bootloader and connected via USB, ActiveSync (WindowsMobile Device Center in Vista) says that there is no device connected.

I tried this step, however, when the DOS box opens, it tells me it cannot find the phone and asks to try again. I do this repeatedly and get nothing. I also tried clicking NO on the retry, but nothing.

Tried that too, I actually have T-Mobile so I put in my own number. I ended up with the same error message about not finding a phone. Is it supposed to find the phone when connected in Bootloader mode?

Thanks for your help, btw
[HTC Excalibur] rilbel:
Thanks for explaining that. I think you might have yourself a bit of a problem.

I'll ponder on it and let you know. Can't you return it in exchange for another Dash?
[HTC Excalibur] stellarvelocity:
What ROM are you trying to flash? I would recommend that you go to T-Mobile.com/wmupgrade and download the current Officially Dash ROM and recover the device that way. If you do not have a T-Mobile phone number, I can get you one that you may use to access the download page.

Once you reflash the official rom I recommend you do the CID unlock and flash a 6.1

[G1 Android Development] Funkstar De Luxe:
I've just received a new T-Mobile G1 and I am pretty desperate to update to a cupcake build. There's loads of guide here that will walk me through it no problem, but there are some things they don't explain fully (or at least, I can't find them).

Will I lose all my contacts and messages when I update? Will I lose all my T-Mobile data (like message settings, 3G settings etc.?). Will Market and everything else still work? What will stop functioning correctly when I do upgrade, specifically for T-Mobile in the UK?

Thanks a lot!

Tony
[G1 Android Development] matt_stang:
You will lose messages, you will not lose any T-Mobile data, you will not lose any contacts. I suggest you check out Haykuro's thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=498026

You will need root. And I suggest you go with haykuro's 4.5 build. I won't go in to any more detail, just do some research in haykuro's thread and others on how to get root, etc. Good luck.
[G1 Android Development] ben29pickett:
Wel.. Where can i start? The cupcake your possibly reading about isnt fully working on G1 Yet..

I recomend you try one of the magic roms ported to G1, Preferbly 5.0H

Root is easy to achieve, Just read around.. Plenty ahve asked how to do this before, so please dont make new threads, Just read please
[G1 Android Development] Mast3rmatt:
If you are referring to the ''Cupcake'' that T-Mobile is releasing this Easter then all these guys are wrong. If you do update to HTC Sapphire it will void your warranty and there's a small(Or large if you don't follow directions) that you could brick your brand new G1. The ''Cupcake'' that T-Mobile will release or at least hoping it will, will be coming in the next days. This update is 100% safe and will not do anything harmful to your g1. It wont even delete anything.
[G1 Android Development] blackknightavalon:
And as I've said in other threads re: Cupcake, I say we wait for JF to do his thing with it.
[G1 Android Development] ardchoille42:
That's exactly what I'm planning to do. I was hard set against root when I first got my g1, but I have seen the light and enjoyed my rooted g1. Thank goodness for the jfupdater app :)
[G1 Android Development] Mast3rmatt:
Huh? That has nothing to do with my post other. My post was answering his question about ''CupCake'' from T-Mobile and not some other Rooted Cupcake. I understand that there are other cupcakes but the best will be T-Mobile for the time being.

I think I said CupCake enough times:)
[G1 Android Development] foxmeister:
Actually, he asked about *a* Cupcake build - he made no mention of an official build, therefore it is reasonable to presume that he is referring to *one that is available* and not *one that isn't*. ;)

Really? For the time being, there is no T-Mobile Cupcake build so how it can it be best? ;) Granted, if and when it comes out, it may well be superior, but that is by no means certain since Haykuros builds are getting better all the time.

If the OP is waiting on an official T-Mobile Cupcake update, I suggest there is no point asking around here since if he leaves his phone with a vanilla build, he'll get the update soon enough, if and when it is released.

Regards,

Dave
[G1 Android Development] Funkstar De Luxe:
Thanks guys. I'm not waiting on the t-mobile build as I have little faith in them releasing it any time soon. I'll ask my question in a different way; what's the best build to put on my UK t-mobile G1? With regards to battery life and features? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] kathi17:
I suggest you read the threads about rooting your G1. The first thing you have to do is downgrade to RC7, and get root. Then, don't accept any OTA (from T-Mobile) upgrades if you should get a notice.

After downgrading and getting root, read up on some of the different builds. You can go to JF's RC9, which is a modded version of the official UK one with root. I would really advise you to do this first, so you will know how to flash your roms, and how to flash the radio.

It will give you a stable version which won't accept OTA updates so you don't have to worry about losing root. (Plug your phone into a power source, or at the very least, be sure your battery has a full charge while flashing, and don't ever turn your phone off while it is flashing.)

After that, read threads like the one comparing the two Magic versions. 5.xG is the google version, and 5.xH is the HTC version.

Once you have gotten root and gone to RC9, you will be able to do something called a Nandroid backup of your phone. You will then be able to try both versions of magic, and also to restore your phone to RC9 if they don't work out for you without losing anything. (Another reason to try a more official mod before trying the Magic ones).

edit: I just found this on the Magic wiki page. It looks helpful: http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/wiki/PageName

Have fun with it!
[XPERIA X1 General] jesusson:
I have used my x1 for four months in America with T-mobile. The phone had no problem until yesterday. However, yesterday, the phone began to lose signal and automatically rebooted several times. Then, finally, from the afternoon, the phone totally lost the signal, and kept looking the signal.

I took out my sim card and plugged into another cell phone and it worked. So, I thought it was the problem of the rom. (I was using Touch-IT 4.5) I downloaded the new version of the rom, Touch-IT 5.6, then flashed it. However, it did not solve the problem. So, I flashed with the original SE rom. However, the phone didn't work either.

I contacted T-mobile, and there was not problem on the signal on my region. I thought it might the problem of data plan since I do not use data plan. So I used Advanced config and killed every option for data plan. However, it still does not work. I tried to do settings manually. changing band, carrier, and every possible options, but it does not work.

Interestingly, the phone worked two times today for a short amount of the time. However, after the reset, it is gone. Other than phone function, I do not see any problem.

Even now the phone keeps searching the signal. What can I do? I read another article that is similar to my case, and they say even after changing the sim card, it does not work.

Anyone has the same issue? What can I do? My phone is dead for two days, and it messes up so many things. Please somebody help me.
[XPERIA X1 General] Sfkn2:
Have you tried redoing the connection setup?
[XPERIA X1 General] nokiaman1978:
try clicking on signal antenna then enter settings click on network and manual select your network, will take a few mins to find networks if it connects manualy just select auto again and hopefully it will fix it., worked with mine.
[XPERIA X1 General] jesusson:
Thank you guys

Thank you guys. Yes, I have tried both of them, but it still does not work.

In Connection setup, I chose United States and T-mobile, and the screen to choose between T-mobile and At&t. I select T-mobile, and click Register. Then, it goes to the searching mode again, and nothing happens.

I assume that somehow, the phone finds networks, since it does show the options to choose (T-mobile, At&t). But something is not right, and it messes the set up. I do not know why. :(

what i can do please ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Rudegar:
i believe the rest is used by the "gpu"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] TACalon:
Hi,

If I'm not wrong, it is related to the HardSPL installed. Which version do you have?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] yetep:
gpu has 64mb dedicated in itself, so it cant be that. mines got 192 :-) well 191.98 lol
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] grahamkdt:
192MB!

Rudegar is correct in that the GPU has 64MB of the 192MB allocated for it's sole use, thus leaving 128MB for the rest of the system. It should still show 192MB in the system settings though.

TACalon is also correct... some people have had issues with the system feeding back incorrect information about installed RAM.

Either way, you have got 192MB!! ;)

I cannot find the business listed on the FL Dept. of State corporation search (www.sunbiz.org)

I ran the phone number listed on the site and found this:

This site is a scam so don't use it they will rob you

on 03/17/2009 Can you tell me more in why you had a bad experience? Thanks!

on 03/25/2009 I dont think So cherry. I Received the Sony Bravia Tv i purchased from them. Maybe you had something wrong somewhere.

So, why is the number linked to a different business name, that also "sells phones"? - although there was a positive review- though it could be BS...-

hate to be so salty, but I straight up emailed the guy and said that if a successful transaction were to take place, I was certain I could send more buisness his way-thinking of everyone here of course. More specifically, if someone on XDA said they bought a TP2 from this site, I would be much more inclined. Any research anyone else can do to verify/disqualify this place would be great.

Dear All:

I bricked my device unfortunately. I am trying to go to bootloader mode but it's not working. I pressed down simultaneously the botton right below the volume down botton and the opposite botton. While both bottons pressed, I powered on the device.

However unfortunatley, it's not working. Please advise the propoer bootloader sequence for HTC Startrek / imate smartflip.

Note I can not use jumpSPL simply because the device is brick and not booting :)

Samer.
[HTC Startrek] Pampooh:
Don't power it on, while pressing both buttons, hold it, and connect your device to your pc. It will turn itself on in bootloader mode. After that install an official rom...
[HTC Startrek] samery:
Thank you, it worked like a charm, however unfortunatley there is no luck.

Let me start by saying that I am trying to install your ROM, so I am delighted that you have personally answered me.

It went to bootloader mode, then after checking the image it returned saying Invalid Certificate.

Then I launched RomUpdateUtility from my laptop to try to install the ROM, it starts writing the ROM, then at 4%, the mobile restarts, and the upgrade utility displays Image Corrupted.

I tried to bring a different (WM6.1 SLIM found somewhere here in this forum) and copied the file to the memory, but received the same "invalid certificate" error.

May I ask you to please suggest a resolution for this problem? thanking you.

Sincerely yours.

Samer.
[HTC Startrek] samery:
Hamdullilah it works.

I figured that if the rom is having a certificate error with the device then I should be able to return to the original rom.

so I went to ftp.clubimate.com and downloaded the original rom and install it, so it did successfully.

then I restarted the upgrade process only this time I did NOT do the same mistake again (not restarting after SDA Unlock) and i got my mobile running now like a sharm on Pampooh rom.

Thanks Pampooh, you are a saver.

Have a great day.

Samer.
[HTC Startrek] Pampooh:
Congratulations.:D Although I would suggest that you use the ROSE release since it uses less memory and is a bit faster than the NEO release. If you do decide to use the ROSE rom, try out PointUI Home2, it looks great. I have the download link in my 1.05b ROSE thread. Good day to you too.:)
[HTC Startrek] samery:
true, but I used a WM6.1 slim version for a long time so it's time to change. The Neo interface is amazing and i dont really care about size, If needed, I could always use the external micro SD for storage.

I think NEO rom is fabulous, you should try it ;)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] HTCzar:
How does the battery behaves when compared with HTC HD and the original Diamond?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] FRD666:
I found a good review article of the diamond2

"In terms of battery life the Diamond2 promises nearly double the amount of standby time over its predecessor. From my time using the Diamond2, starting with a full charge and with frequent use (web browsing/ music/ camera/ the excellent bubble burst game!), the next time the phone needed charging was five days later and even then this was more of a top up rather than the battery running on empty."

(http://www.mobiles.co.uk/htc-touch-diamond2-review.html)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] chris10230:
i cant quite beleive a 5 day battery life on this phone! if it is true then it will be awesome but it has a smaller battery 1100 mah against 1350 in my phone currently which i get about 1.5 days out of it.

So i will be reserved, and slightly pessimistic
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] gkai:
I would expect it to perform like your current phone (the HD, right?). smaller battery but smaller screen, so it should be about the same, and the htc provided data seems to be in line with that (about the same stand by, talk time and video talk time...)

So I think u are right to be pessimistic, but I also think that a higher capacity battery is possible with the same size as the 1100 mAh one: This TD2 battery is large, compared to the TD1 one: about 2 times as large, and TD1 was 900 mAh. Except if they are not of the same thickness, TD2 battery should have a higher capacity than just 1100 mAh...

I found nice shots comparing internals of TD1 and TD2, where we can see the 2 batteries

http://www.mobile01.com/newsdetail.php?id=7317

I do not know how TD2 battery compare size-wise to the HD, maybe you could post some pics of your battery? side by side shots of TD2, TD1 and HD batteries would be very nice, especial it we also have thickness shots ;) anyone having acces to the 3 care to post those? :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] chris10230:
gkai, no i dont have an hd, i wish i had one. I only have a polaris which is why i cannot understand the 5 day battery life as if my current phone does not last that long. I think that something that is more powerful, bigger screen and a smaller battery will last as long, i just dont, and also mine is stated to have a 400 hr standby time and the td2 only has 360 hours.

So i will still be pessimistic and say that they had some wonderous phone to get it to last for 5 days! (or didnt touch it for about 3 days!)

also the physical size of the battery does not actually matter the rating of the battery is what matters and that is smaller therefore a smaller battery. The td1 i think was always said to have a really bad battery life so hopefully htc have heard this and made the td2 better with a longer battery life, we can all live in hope :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] gkai:
hum, then it is possible: faster processor does not mean that it will drain battery faster: new generation are etched finer and use less power for same or more processing power. Screen can be (slightly) more efficient, and power saving of the different radio can be better too. But I expect the phone to be good for 1.5/2.5 days of typical usage, no more, given the current behavior of the HD, touch pro and touch diamond (which have almost exactly the same internal components)

The second is more likely, I doubt htc has changed the battery for the review (although it is possible). Good cell coverage is also good for battery life, if u have a cell tower nearby your phone will get better standby and communication time, same for wifi. I guess they both were in ideal condition and used the phone lightly...

hum, yes, it is the rating that count...but given that all good batteries use the same technology (lithium-polymer), mAh rating should be in direct relation with physical size: a large battery with small rating just means that your battery is of an older generation (unlikely), or that there is a lot of dead material (plastic packaging) in your battery. So either the TD2 battery is much thinner than TD1, or it is likely that higher capacity batteries with the same physical size will surface quite soon on the accessory market (I hope for the second case, battery life under normal usage is one of the most important factor for me, it is convenient to have more than 1 day of "heavy" use per charge, and less than one day under "normal" use means the phone is poor for me, whatever its other qualities...)
