[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Is there only RUU_BlackStone_Orange_UK_1.14.405.3_Radio_52.49a.2 5.26_1.09.25.14_Ship available? Or does Orange offer a 1.56.xxx.x version rom?

If you can only find the RUU_BlackStone_Orange_UK_1.14.405.3_Radio_52.49a.2 5.26_1.09.25.14_Ship rom then you will need to downgrade your SPL to 1.14.0000 in order to run that rom.

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] gemini2201:
Hello,

I have spv m650 branded with orange. Have successfully removed simlock, but cid-lock removing with "Wizard Service Tool" failed.

So I was trying to bypass CID lock with USPL.

However I thing something went wrong.

I started start_uspl.exe and followed steps with documentation.

Phone rebooted with blank (black) screen. (ok so far)

According to info at wizard active sync should be connected (green) while flashing. However my phone didn't show it's connected while boot mode.

I've waited about 10mins and decided to continue. After next steps wizard show info that now will start flashing and it take about 10mins. But it took only about 5 seconds... After that wizard showed that finished. And my phone started with normal mode.

So I'm totally unsure if this succeded or not, and since I don't want to brick my phone I'm a bit scared about flashing my system - because I'm not sure if CID is bypassed/removed or not.

I'm searching forum, but I can't find any info how to validate if process is successed or not.

Current SPL version is 1.11.0000 (Unfortunetly haven't checked it before flashing) So I don't know if there is any change or not.

So anyone could please told me if can I safely flash new rom to my phone? Or sth went wrong with USPL and CID-LOCK is still active?

Regards

IF SPL is 1.11.000' then is CID unlock

I have an application that is only an .exe (its not installed on the device and is not in the menu of installed programs so I can just add it to the program tab. How can i create a "shortcut" so i don't have to go through the explorer to run the app.?

Use Total Commander's create shortcut function: select the .exe, choose file, >>>>>>, create shortcut, then choose tree to point to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs

[General Questions and Answers] lamaq:
I have a HTC Touch - Windows Mobile 6.0 device and recently changed mobile provider. Now whenever I active the phone on my device I get a pop-up with the same message each time (an ad for backing up the Sim contacts with the provider). If I press ok I get another pop-up 30 seconds later.

I looked for a way to turn off the pop-ups but can't find anything. Does anybody know a way to turn this off?
[General Questions and Answers] Jadel:
I don't have a solution for stopping the messages, but might I suggest actually taking the SMS's advice and backing up your contacts, maybe then it will actually stop bugging you?
[General Questions and Answers] lamaq:
Thanks Jadel :) I don't think that will help however, though I won't be able to test until I fully switch providers. My contacts are already backed up in Gmail, Hotmail and Exchange.
[General Questions and Answers] mirchichamu:
May be there is contact backup as sim service? Go to sim services and look for this service if any????? May be you can do something from there.
[General Questions and Answers] nir36:
that's a good suggestion. it seems your provider has something to do with this as i'm not familiar with anything that offers this weird thing automatically.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Kap6oHaT:
well, a month ago I bought Blackstone, and I feel good :))

and as thankful user I would like to donate my Himalaya to somebody of developers on this site. I hope it will help to build more good and stable roms.

Himalaya (originally it's I-mate / Qteck) fully working, it comes with additional battery, earphones, cradle and leathercase. maybe something more, I don't remember already.

touch screen of the device is burst in several places, but is still working. for development use you don't have to replace it.

that's all about it.

now how to get? I live in Israel, so you pay only shipping or in a month I'm gonna visit Germany(Nurnberg) and I can take it with me.

btw: I do not speak english very well, so sorry :-)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Nokser:
Yes i have to new Hima
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
My suggestion is to send Master Ather90 the Hima. He's a little older than 18 and his last Hima is broken. So he left our forum and switched to another. He was one of our most activ developers and reacht moderator status. The problem for you might be his place, as he lives in Bahrain, but fro Germany it is no problem to send via DHL as a gift, with custom declaration. As the device is worth aproximately 50€, it is possible that he has to pay a small amont of tax.

I think, a lot of people miss him and his work, so you would do us a big favoir.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Nokser:
Very good Idea.....;)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Ather:
I havent gone anywhere, im still here ;) its just that i have my Final Exams this month, i'll be finished on 23rd and then im on the heat :D

also, on 10th June i celebrate my 19th Birthday :p and i would love to have the Himalaya :o
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Kap6oHaT:
yeah, the truth is that I would like to give it to ather90. I used one of his rom and liked it.

so be it.

shipping may be the problem for me. so I can take it to germany, I will stay there for a couple of weeks (17-30 june) and everyone is welcome to come and to transfer it to ather90.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
That is great, you're the man of the day, Kap60HaT!

I wanted to send my own secundary Xda to ather but then I got in trouble with the Qtek I used the other day. So I have got the information to send a gift from Germany to Bahrain via DHL. I can send you the customs declaration too. It's some where around here . I will ask for the shipping asap, maybe you can send it from Nürnberg to ather90. If it is a prob for an israelian guy to send to the middle east, you have to post it to me if noone else could visit you, because I live ca. 500km to the north west.

We will get this job done, I'm sure.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Ather:
great, really appreiciated Kap6oHaT :)

tell me once you are there and i'll let you know my address
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Kap6oHaT:
from Israel there's no post service to Bahrain. and on Deutsche Post site, I saw it's about 14-15 euro, so there will be no problem.

I will need an exact address. you may pm me.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Ather:
good news all, im back :D

just got the news from home that my device is there, soon i'll start cooking (once im dont with my eye opt.) :)

Some devices are getting bricked by Haykuro's new SPL, and it seems that this may be a hardware revision issue.

You can tell your board version by entering bootloader (power off, the power on with camera button held down) and noting the characters after DREA100. Most are likely PVT, but some may be other revisions such as DVT2-1.

My PVT flashed OK, my DVT2-1 bricked.

PLEASE CHECK THIS BEFORE FLASHING, and post your results here.

Thanks.

[G1 Android Development] Six6Sicks:
I wish I could answer this but my phone is bricked and it's all G1 screen only for me. No bootloader. Sorry.
[G1 Android Development] d474rpr:
Anyone with a bricked device or anyone willing to help try to create a solution:

I created a new thread "Think Tank for Bricked G1's".

Please join me there.

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] exile20:
By the poll results so far it seems that it was the type of board. Damn that sucks. No one could have forseen this. What are the differences between the boards and why did htc use two different ones and is it a random handset or the first batch of G1's were pvt and the later were DVT?
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
I got a PVT and flashed ok(pre-ordered g1)
[G1 Android Development] wiked1r:
i have a pvt no preorder got mine in feb .. but that seems logical about the different boards because mine flashed fine
[G1 Android Development] nick8197:
I had PVT and mine flashed ok
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Re-Flash

for those not "bricking" the phone who have PVT .. is everyone having to flash again with JF1.5 etc or is anyone having success with simply rebooting?
[G1 Android Development] nick8197:
Yea I had to reflash my JF 1.5 after I did the new SPL

And its starting to look like if you have PVT you should be fine hopefully
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
I reinstalled dude's back on my phone no wipe.
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
PVT here and it's working perfectly for me. My brother is a bit nervous to let me do his (even though we got our phones at the same time)
[G1 Android Development] satru:
One detail, when i flashed the new spl I was doing something else and when i check my phone it back to recovery utility windows itself ,it was in 15 20 minute, after that i reinstalle jf1.5 and all worked ok

what this means. if you are flashing your phone and before these process finishes your take out you battery, you can bricking you phone. take patience and wait.

Good luck

ps : i change the text for sir*mez,
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
this happened to the one that bricked.

Flashed H Special SPL with battery at 89% - saw it update, rebooted on its own, saw the chip with the arrow on it and it rebooted. once after that it hanged. I waited 5 minutes and then took the battery out. Got my sdcard reader, renamed the jf v1.5 to update to reflash like instructed. powered the phone with home+power and got nothing but a hang on t-mobile G1 screen.

Both phones were done the same. One phone bricked and one phone flashed the SPL.

So yes I guess I bricked one phone but a miracle happened with the other one. the one that flashed properly went into the recovery on its own right after the boot, but not in no 15-20 min wait like you said. you sure need to stop the blaming. i am not blaming anyone for my bricked phone, im just trying to find a solution. you are going to get this locked because of the bickering.
[G1 Android Development] alapapa:
so far no non-PVT success stories.

can't be just coincidence
[G1 Android Development] slyfury:
PVT 32B and all good here
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
thats definitely something to check out.
[G1 Android Development] zgmf-x322a:
Different board? Would this be bcoz of the US and UK differences? Or the devices for tmobile is different than the one from htc?
[G1 Android Development] theslam08:
Agreed, same here
[G1 Android Development] nukes777:
PVT success here...one thing to note

after I applied the SPL it rebooted into recovery but DID NOT rebootautomatically like others...i let it stay on the recovery menu screen for 5min then did a home+back reboot and let it stay on the tmobile screen for 5min again for voodoo purposes...then removed battery and applied my current ADP1.5Hr3 again alls well
[G1 Android Development] keatonreckard:
same as well.
[G1 Android Development] :
PVT, worked fine.
[G1 Android Development] ESKIMOn00b:
my PVT worked fine

on a side note, after the install of the SPL it had booted back into recovery mode when i picked the phone back up, applied the update from there, no reboot

so noone has an idea what/where the diff hardware revisions come from?

any of yall with bricked DVT is your phone a g1 or adp1? pvt sound like personal something dvt developer something? just a notion i thought id share
[G1 Android Development] Chahk:
Successful SPL flash on PVT here as well.

[Edit] Had to re-flash Dudecake 1.1a.
[G1 Android Development] im.l0ltn:
No, my G1 couldn't get into recovery or boot past splash1. I had to use fastboot and flash my nandroid backups then flash again with JF1.5.

Here's my new SPL info for anyone that would like to know

DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF

HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA10000)

CPLD-4

Radio-2.22.19.26I
[G1 Android Development] ESKIMOn00b:
am I wrong or is that a first (being able to boot into bootloader and FASTBOOT, but no recovery console?) As a result of flashing this spl? Only way I could see this happening is if the spl messed with the recovery partition, if that's the case then something on the recovery partition of the DVT might be slightly different than on the PVT devices and that might be causing the bricking
[G1 Android Development] BlueBoar:
I have PVT and I just flashed the new SPL, no problems at all. Had to reflash the Dudes cupcake but everythings all good here.
[G1 Android Development] N3xt2N0N3:
PVT = New SPL plain and simple.

Can we confirm this now.

Because my device is PVT and it also flashed the SPL no problems.

PVT and flashed fine.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
so against my better judgment i took a chance and flashed this thing .. i verified that i have PVT (i was one of the people on the first pre-order list) and that everything was "up to snuff" on my phone .. now the only thing it does is show the T-Mobile G1 screen and goes nowhere .. no buttons respond .. no bootloader .. no recovery .. nada .. now as someone else pointed out, because the screen lights up something is definitely powering on .. so there must be a method to restore from this "brick" position in which it's stuck .. seems noone knows how tho .. so even with PVT you don't have 100% chance of success with this new SPL .. but all that aside .. it's a great attempt at gaining more space on your phone

[G1 Android Development] kathi17:
It's pretty scary that a small percentage of these phones can't use this SPL, and that even people like Lucid have had the problem. (I really really hope that since they do power up, there is a way to recover them, so I didn't call them bricks).

Since the SPL makes more space on the phone, and the HTC builds are much larger, it's looking like if we (at least in the US), want to keep modding our G1s, we are going to have to hope that HTC makes another Android phone which works with T-Mo's US network, and contains enough internal memory to comfortably use other builds. Even if the new SPL was safe for everyone to use, it still might not give us enough room to do what we want.

I'm sure HTC reads XDA, so I just wanted to plant the seeds for HTC to release a new, affordable model for people who want to use and mod the various Android builds. It would be like having a whole stable of devs they don't have to pay, giving free advertising on just how great Android and HTC phones really can be. It would be the easiest way to publicize HTC and Android as the way of the future. If we had phones like that, just think of the utube videos, blogs, magazine articles etc. about how great the Android and HTC potential is. (There are already a ton of those, so just imagine how much more there would be if we had more powerful devices).

Android is poised to really be a new generation of cell phone/mini computers. This could be as big as microsoft if the talented devs could have a device which would handle more than just the basics.

do u have another sd card to reflash ur update u had!! tht usually works for most ppl!! i had to reflash dudes 1.0 to get my phone to work properly again!
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
there is no response from the phone .. no bootloader .. no recovery .. it will not access the phone system let alone try to access the SD slot .. we are looking for a solution to bypass the T-Mobile G1 screen that stops and goes no further
[G1 Android Development] MosquitoD4K:
acejoker25000 have you even read what you quoted? I mean no key combination is woking -> you cant get into recovery mode or bootloader, so tell us how can we flash it?

fw compatability

well tell me wat fw u were originally on! the way it is seeming is that ppl with the jf fw are having the problems!! so maybe it cud b n the fw some way or another most ppl with dudes or haykuros fw arent having the problems!! so maybe it has a compatibility issue with the jf fw!!! i cud b wrong but its just a thought!! so lucid wat fw u have to begin with or neone else tht has a bricked phone?
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
the phone's build would have nothing to do with the SPL .. you can get to the bootloader and flash RC29 nbh file if the SPL were working properly .. so throwing out ideas that don't have relevance does not help much .. no offense .. prior to this SPL you could hold CAMERA + POWER to get in and now you cannot .. with a properly functioning SPL and recovery console you can flash ANY "fw" (i assume you are trying to say firmware) that you desire .. and firmware is 1.0 / 1.1 / 1.5 .. not JF / Dude / Haykuro

so in any case .. T-Mobile is sending my new phone .. should arrive in a day or two .. this time i'll hold off on the SPL until some more investigation can be done .. keep up the good work Haykuro!! we'll nail this SPL trouble to the wall one of these days
[G1 Android Development] SpyderMS:
I flashed again immediately after, just because I'd read that it needed to be done. Everything worked, so no complaints here.
[G1 Android Development] cigar3tte:
Also DREAM PVT 32B, and I had a similar situation. However, instead of flashing all 3 .img files from Nandroid backups, I flashed boot.img extracted from Haykuro Hr3 zip.

*note: My G1, after re-flashing Haykuro Hr3, stays stuck in the G1 splash screen, but I never lost access to recovery and fastboot (hence I was able to flash boot.img).
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
so the question would be .. what is preventing recovery and fastboot .. i would LOVE to be able to fastboot even if i had to go back to RC29 and start from scratch .. but no button combination responds at all
[G1 Android Development] maxisma:
Your bootloader is corrupted. It can't load anymore, it's like the WINXP-Bootloader (Where you select which OS to boot).

The G1 has no accesable BIOS to flash the bootloader again.

Thats why it displays the G1 Logo (Has loaded BIOS or something), but then it can't load bootloader.

Correct me if wrong.
[G1 Android Development] DionS:
The bootloader is corrupted or there isn't one there at all. I dont think you can acces it. Isn't the First Program Loader (thats the G1 splash screen, right?) just to load the SPL? And that in the SPL the OS/Revovery/Fastboot and anything else (USB port, microsd cardslot, etc.) are loaded? or am I talking total bullcrap now?

Mine is "bricked" too, and ofc. I want a new one, what should I say to the helpdesk or whatever to get T-mobile send me a new one?

Also, Haykuro, could you please make fixing the "bricked" devices your top priority?
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
you tell them: "My G1 will not come on anymore. I tried the CAMERA + POWER and I tried the HOME + POWER and nothing responds. It just sits on the G1 screen. I think something's wrong with it."

so anyhow .. you would think there should be an option to bypass the phone and boot with some special MicroSD like booting your computer from a recovery CD .. i'm sure the people at HTC have the ability to recover these "bricked" phones pretty easily

[G1 Android Development] DionS:
Isn't flashing your phone voiding the warranty?

But isn't the G1 splash screen just booting up the SPL? I think HTC closed up every other way to acces it. You aren't supposed to change your SPL, I think. Maybe there's a special MicroSD that the Initial Program Loader searches for before starting the SPL

Quoting Wiki here:

you should not need an expensive peice of equiptment to fix this issue. there is a way to remove the bootloader out of the g1. someone i was talking to on the forums said he knew of a guy before that hosed the bootloader and was able to unbrick. i just never asked how. before we get into the expensive fix i'd like to know what the other guy a long time ago did and i don't think he shelled out money just to fix a bootloader problem. there is a way we just need to find it. and since the old forums have been pruned it's going to take a little work.

all we need to do is get them back to the stock bootloader then have them never use the spl again
