1 day fly is OK for A3100_WM65_23562_WWE_Lite ;)

In additional to previous testing - tested also BT nd Cam video recording. Everything is OK. Moto-keyboard is installed and works perfect.

Only one problem is found: Impossible to close SysInfo window. It showing OK button but pressing on it doesnt do anything. But this problem is really minor and it has workaround by pressing red button.

Very good rom. ))

As shell tried to install Manila 2D and it does work but very heavy, so replaced it by last SPB Mobile Shell.

Thanks!

bugs:

jog ball doesnt lighting up
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] woland_ca:
yes, it doesnt work. but it can be fixed by setting DisableNLED = 0 in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Drivers\NLed
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nalimen:
same as mine, and one more bugs, on sysInfo window, the scrollbar wouldn't adjust as the window size....

But, it's true, it's "lite" .....me too, i can't find any other home screen beside SPB mobshell which has marvelous icon, animation, with lite memory and processor usage....

i was already change it, but the jog ball still wouldn't lighten up....

And......lately i realize that....i can't find the JBlend.....is this ROM able to run java on it???how??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] woland_ca:
Did you restart after applied the change?

In my case - it started to work for power indication (charging/full) but not for missed calls / sms.

Then i went to Settings-> Sounds & Notification -> Notifications, and enabled "Flash light for - 15 min" for missed calls and new Messages... and Bingo - it is working :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] woland_ca:
Do you need java? 0_0 ;)

You can try http://sourceforge.jp/projects/mysaifujvm/releases/46208

And when i installed "Motorola Home Screen", and press "lock" on "Motorola Home Screen", my A3100 is stuck. But i press "lock" after i'm in Start of WM6.5, it' ok.

Yes, the problem WM 6.5 in Motosurf is Motohomescreen not stabil

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] woland_ca:
Thanks, good ROM.

Flashed without problems.

Yep, same problem, but i'm not sure that this is ROM problem. May be SPB bug or SPB to new style WM65 incompatibility

Looks like a local problem... i have synchronized without any problem. But in some old roms i had similar problem ... you can try: goto Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC -> and remove V from "Enable advanced network functionality" and press OK. Try in this mode. if not set the V back and try again. BTW. what is your Radio Stack version ? Did you flash any chinese OEM rom version 20 before?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lkgonzales:
Already disabled "Advanced network functionality" but problem is still there. From WM6.1 ENG i tried flashing direct to WM65 but found result to be sluggish, so i reflashed with the Chinese version (A3100_MB60.1FF.1.0.18.CHS.1.4.20780), and then flashed once more using A3100_WM65_23563_WWE_Lite. Performance was no longer sluggish but then i noticed the syncing issue. So i tried to reflash again using the same WM65 but result is still the same.

I also cant get out of Sys Info.. need to reset.

"ROM_goc_MotoA3100.rar"

This one is not came from MB60 Ghost Tool, AFAIK the result of Ghost Tool is still in .bin format, this one already in .hex format. I've tried this firmware before, it's not a full flash because when I check SysInfo, the Flex Version is blank. This firmware also has a minor drawback, usually the green light will automatically on when charging is full, but now I must wake up the screen first if I want to know the charge is full or not. And also there is no more blinking light when you charge it in phone off condition.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] su8044:
No one can help me with mi issue??? i really need to flash a new rom because the stock one sucks (Movilnet Venezuela).

If anyone has ideas on how to solve the "SIM Locked" error message for the MB60 Download Tools
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ancehamsah:
What version of MB60 Download Tools you're using? To knowing which right port is activated when you plug the cables, go to (Windows XP) Control Panel>System Properties>Device Manager, check Ports (COM & LPT). You can see Attila Diagnostic Tools port there. Choose that port number for use in MB60 Download Tools.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] manhktqd:

Can please someone answer me?

Can anyone please tell me how to bypass the error 631 "Sim is locked" that appears every time i try to flash a rom? or give me an alternative method to flash a rom?

I'm sorry if i'm beign a pain, but i really want to get rid of my stock rom because it self destructs (the motorola home screens restarts every once in a while by itself, after i did a hard reset many apps aren´t working correctly, some installed apps like vspaint 1.85 won't start, etc.)

I've tried with both Windows Vista and 7, and the same error appears on DMtool using both OS.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] manhktqd:
in DLtool V1.8, it will check "Sim is locked" and i think if it's true, you can't upgrade to new rom.

My Motorola home screen always restarts if i use some programs. so i uncheck box "motorola home screen" in "today" and install SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.3. It's OK.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] su8044:
it's weird it happens only to me, -631 "sim is locked"

It's weird it happens only to me, because Pietrol2 has the same phone i do, they where both bought in Venezuela through Movilnet, and he managed to upgrade the system to 6.5. I don't know if the problem is because he did something before installing the chinese rom, like using the MB60 ghost tools or something similar. Unfortunately i can't seem to contact him.

Why am i the only one with such problem? where your phones bought unlocked? or did you unlocked them before trying to flash them? if so, that would explain my error, but if your phones were sim locked too when you first flashed them then the problem is somewhere else.

i'm really concerned about this problem and eager to resolve my situation. Any information will be appreciated.

@manhktqd

Thanks for the tip, i used to have SPB Mobile Shell on my HTC Touch Viva and i liked it pretty much, but my primary concern is that some apps don't work on my A3100. Some tested apps that used to work on my viva but don't work on my A3100 are: Resco Audio Recorder, Meteor Audio Recorder, VsPaint, Guitar Tunner.. some games like Orions: age of wizards, Worms, etc... Besides, it's pretty unstable and some options aren't available, like windows default app manager (the one that looks like a small arrow pointing downwards on the home screen on the upper right corner), the option to boost the wifi signal (i really need that to use wifirouter), and after i did a hard reset i can't get the phone on landscape view on any app. So i'm trapped now with a phone that has 2.5 times the processor speed compared to my older phone but doesn't do half the stuff, and it's all the software fault. As you can see i'm desperate to change to a more stable rom. thanks for your help anyway :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] topgunask:
seems like ur phone is malfunction bring it back to where u bought it and ask for replacement if u can, sry i cant help furthermore
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] su8044:
I know by personal experience that the phone must have a very significant fault to be considered for warranty. Besides, I don't think that technical service will be happy if I tell them that my main problem is that i can't flash an unbranded and unofficial ROM or that i can't install some pirated apps ;) . And to make my situation worse: the device was bought by mi mother, and she's all the way on the opposite side of this country. So, if i want to chance anything, she has to be present (these are some of the laws of this carrier company). So, in few words... I'M F**K UP (pardon my french)

Is there any other software that can be used to flash A3100? or is there any tested method to flash by using a sd card? some HTC can do so, but i never tried that way.

All i want is to flash any stable rom, on any method that works.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] manhktqd:
You maybe return 21 page and try my guide to flash your A3100. Do it step by step.

The fist and importan is flash your A3100 to rom of China.

Goodluck.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] su8044:
Still no luck. :(

Maybe if there's a tool similar to HEX2BIN and then use MB60 Ghost Tools to flash the file, do you think it could work?

it's basically the same method to convert a BIN file given by MB60 Ghost Tools into a HEX file but backwards.

See this:

3. Download this rapidshare.com/files/338210487/A3100HEXTOOL.rar . and extract it. And thanks for moto.it168.com that I got this tool from.

4. Put the new flash.bin from item 2 to BIN2HEX folder and execute the genhex.bat. After finish you will get WinMobile.hex that you can download to your device or do the next step as an optional.

It goes on....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] artcmmu:
It's unnecessary to flash chinese rom (radio 20).

Flash radio module = take more risk

that rom made my a3100 boot loader gone many times...

Ghost rom must put battery on. (more chance)

Ghost rom = ghost all (rom, radio, bootloader,etc..) sometime can help you when you fail with some rom

Flash rom you can take battery out.

It's just my experience.

my new rom (old style - start on top)
