Does the phone go into bootloader? Power+Camera+Reset, resulting in the tri-colour screen? And does this go USB when plugged into the PC?

If Yes and Yes then it should be possible to load a new ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] IseeBrickedPhones:
I have access to a magic but cannot flash any ROMs to it as I cannot perform the required keypresses... There after all is no hardware keyboard.

Any ideas how I can "alt + w" & "alt + s" without a hardware keyboard?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] i9zero:
I am only left to assume that you'll have to use the adb from the android-sdk.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] IseeBrickedPhones:
Without people posting *.img files containing their system dir this is not possible...

Its not possible to apply a update.zip if there is no system.img...

This will be an issue for Magic users.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rhedgehog:
It's really not that hard.

all the ones i have (apart from two) work the following way.

1. remove the battery

2. same as on the G1, hold home and end call till you see the little triangle warning thing. This can take several seconds before this appears, so don't let go of those buttons....!

3. Let go of the buttons when the triangle warning thing appears, and then press them again. Home and End call.

4. Writing appears. Use the track ball or volume buttons to scroll to the option you want and press the trackball to select.

Voila!

However, on earlier prototypes, depending on which one you have, you may get to step 4 and find that you cannot scroll. In this case, each of the three options will have a different key combo listed next to it. These should be only using the keys available on the device, and so you should be able to press the necessary keys for what you want to do.

On one particular device that i have, it has the old bootloader, and so i cannot get past step 2. The triangle thingy appears, but nothing else works. If you're stuck with one of those early devices, then i am afraid you are S.O.L!

Hi, im new here. I followed all steps and it works fine for me. My HTC Magic is from Vodafone Spain. In the menu, i can move through options with trackball or volume buttons. Options that appears:

Actually, and not sure it has been posted already (pretty sure it's similar on HTC Dream also)... But Powering ON with Volume down gives some results too...

YEP it's right

Hi Guys,

i just open my HTC MAGIC while holding the volume (down) key and here is the result:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TheRookie:
If you press <Back> button and power up the device, then you'll be presented with Fastboot menu:

<VOL_DOWN> HBoot Mode

<SEND> Reset Device

<ACTION> Restart to HBoot

<MENU> Power Down

Also, pressing trackball and power button at the same time switches on blue LED indicator (not sure if it does anything else apart from it).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] IsAhT:
Yes, you can also turn on the phone pressing "back" + "power", and phone starts with FASTBOOT menu. In this case, blue led is off. But you can press one time "vol down" button, and it gets you to HBOOT mode, and blue led appears again.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jleang12:
If somebody were to call me or message me, usually i would see their names. For some reason, it only shows their numbers now, is anybody else experiencing or know of the source and/or solution to this problem?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nhshah7:
Never happened to me. Is it possible that you have multiple entries per person/phone number in your phonebook? On my nokia e61, that used to happen where if i had the number listed twice, it would jsut get confused. you could try removing all your contacts from your phone then adding them all again
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Incognitologik:
this happens to me too, I am not quite sure what is actually happening but usually if i just power cycle the phone the contacts come back or sometimes I just have resync with outlook.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] euphoria47:
The problem you mention although seems to be the same, is actually limited to the symbian operating system. I actually had a great chat with a nokia telephone rep who helped me rectify the problem on my e70.

With WM, every time i flash a new ROM the initial customization rips the contacts of my sim and places them in my contacts, so I see 3 of everybody. I then must "hide" SIM contacts, which solves 1/3 of them, then I must find which ones have advanced infos like multi emails, address, etc, and which one came from the sim (only name/#) and delete the one that isnt info rich (if anyone knows a simple way around this please let me know!)

Anyhow, what I am trying to say is duplicate contacts is not your issue. It could be discrepancy between your ROM and provider. If you are using a ROM developed for another provider, that is likely to be at the heart of your issue. My best advice would be to look into a different ROM, and if you are running a custom ROM, look into changing your rilphone.dll.

Best of luck and if you fix the problem, let us know what you did, so others experiencing similar issues will have a fix
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] charlie_b:
This is a well known problem on branded Touch Pros. The solution can be found in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=471329

You need to use Schapp's Advanced Config to adjust number of trailing digits matched. On my one, it was set to 12, I've set it to 10 and the problem is no more!

Search the forum for Advanced Config if you don't already have it. :)

Hey guys, i have tried searching the forums but i havent found anybody with the same problem as me, since i flashed my bell ppc6800 with dcd 4.1.2 & radio rom version 3.42.50, i have had people say that i sounded very far away and i have to speak up sometimes scream for them to hear me, i even tested it out with my friend, he used my phone and i used his, i could almost hear nothing at all when he talks at a normal voice tone, anyone have the same problem? maybe a fix? I would say it acts normally about 30% but the other 70% people can't hear me :(

I am searching for new rhodium camera cab for x1. if some one has it plz reply
[General Topics] elementur:
Just a random thought I had. I own a Fuze and I love the 480 x 640 resolution of the screen. If someone gave me a phone with anything less than a VGA resolution I think I would go crazy. I saw my old Mogul laying around and decided to turn it on to compare both screens. What a difference! So, do you think you (VGA owners) could ever go back to QVGA?
[General Topics] mike21pr:
i did, sold my touch pro and used my vogue. it was a hella big difference at first but when you get used to it, you will barely notice the difference

the biggest place where i miss my vga screen is when im web browsing
[General Topics] elementur:
That sucks that you had to sell your TP. I can see how one would get used to the screen resolution again though, but for me it would be really hard.
[General Topics] lutent:
I voted no, however I would have to agree with mike. For purely phone related tasks VGA is not necessary, however once you use the more "advanced" functionalities like web browsing, third party apps, VGA becomes quickly the minimum resolution, especially for web browsing.
[General Topics] orb3000:
VGA works great for me with my 3.5" 640 x 480 pixels, Just in 2008 devices started to make this screens and my Universal is from 2005!!

QVGA I really don´t like it

WVGA never used...

May I know what is sweet?:eek::eek:
[General Topics] TheChampJT:
It's def a big factor in choosing a phone, but sometime a qVGA phone is better. Like Omnia vs Diamond. Either way, I prefer my Storm's screen :D
[General Topics] elementur:
I had no idea the Omnia was only QVGA. I figured it was such a well-rounded device and expected the VGA screen, but I guess not.

The Storm does have a beautiful screen though. I'll give you that. I'm really starting to regret getting rid of the Storm... :p
[General Topics] adeltaY:
I can't have less than my Fuze's VGA screen. WVGA or higher is next for me!

BTW, what is the name for screens with res 360 x 640, like the Omnia HD and Idou. I googled it but no go . . . it may be "qHD" though?
[General Topics] elementur:
qHD sounds good, but I doubt that's the name for it. :p Actually (and I could be completely wrong) I think 360 x 640 is still considered VGA. I think that maybe once it gets to a certain amount of pixels it would change up to the next level. I don't think I know what I'm talking about. :confused:
[General Topics] Psygnosis84:
I had my HD, and i thought that all WM devices look like this until my brother got an Omnia, and i thought something was wrong with the device. Thats until i found the difference was WQVGA and WVGA.

BIG difference in quality, so no it will be hard to go from VGA to QVGA, but you will get used to it.
[General Topics] vijay555:
I've got the Blackstone, and briefly had the Omnia in my hand.

Returning to QVGA is pretty much impossible after you've got used to >= VGA.

However, the difference is not the screen real estate, but the DPI. Once you get used to a higher definition screen, it's horrible to go back to the ill defined QVGA screens. However, a small VGA screen still looks great, but a physically large QVGA screen looks even more hideous! (I recently had reason to pull out my IPAQ, the original ancestor to modern Windows Mobile devices, and was surprised to see that the screen was bigger than the Blackstone, but no where as well defined).

MY Diamond screen cracked and my insurance company said they could not replace it, so offered me a £350 cheque. as I was due an upgrade in 3 months (1 month to go) I took their cash and banked it decideding to go back to my old artemis for a few months.

Whilst VGA is sooo much better, you can survive with QVGA. However I am happy with it because I know it is temporary till mid june (ish) when I get a TD2

Hi

Sound call quality is good, but not perfect, calls are very stable, and clear (huge antena), You can manualy set call volume level or set call to main loud speaker
[Touch HD General] Kash:
Yeah calls are generally good quality and loud. The only problem is the loudspeaker is not very good-quite distorted
[Touch HD General] Midnight_Rambler:
Damn, I was fearing that. With my old XDA Neo I was never satisfied with its speakerphone quality also. The sound quality of ordinary cell phones is always superior. But how's Xperia, it's SE (I know it's HTC;))

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] the_ozyrys:
I've once lost symbols keypad when I've changed registry entry

"HKLM\System\currentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409\Ime File"

So you might try just to cook "eT9ime.dll" and verify that above entry

points this file, instead of cooking whole EzInput...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] BladeStorm:

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] GustavTheLion:
yeah if you read earlier posts, the keyboard layout is not the problem

But then the phone would not read the sd card that I partitioned with fat32 1st and ext2 second. I partitioned it with umbento that I downloaded of the net cause I have windows. Now the phone will not boot nor read the sd card why. My phone is fine now cause I reformated with fat32 and re flased and now my phone is fine I'm on the jf rc33L build to change themes faster but I want to save apps to sd how? Could it have been the sd card? Does the card have to be a class or grade 6? When I umount the card to partition it in umbento did I have to remount it before closeing umbento and is that why?

Pretty logical, its to let you know that you set your joggr for volume adjustments only. If you go and change it so that you can slide through panels, it will go away.

Even without multi-touch but rather a gesture based one would work. Something like the HTC Album for Windows. Drawing in a wide circle rotates the picture, drawing in a small circle will zoom.
