[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GuestD2004:
Hi There!

As requested in this topic, I promised to write an tutorial regarding on how to find your internal memory brand (to be clear, NOT your SD Storage Card brand).

This is important because there are ALOT of Rhodium Devices out there which use "Samsung" internal memory and OliNex needs to find a device which uses Hynix (or any different then samsung_kby00xxx) so they can test HardSPL for the Rhodium with it.

So...In short, read the tutorial below if you wan't to help out hardspl development AND if you're willing to, if you have internal memory that's from Hynix (or any different then samsung_kby00xxx), act as a tester for their HardSPL.

Cmonex also wrote a very short tutorial using a different program, you can scroll down a bit and read it or click here.

...because it gives no new information to anyone, or anything useful.

The Tutorial:

Requirements:

QMAT

Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 for vista or ActiveSync 4.5 for Windows XP

USB Cable for connecting your phone with your pc :)

Warning:

I'm in no way reliable if you screw your phone up...altrough I seriously doubt that you can actually screw anything up using QMAT and just these instructions. ;)

Step 1

Note:

As I'm personally using Vista x64 I can't explain in full length on how to disable USB Connections in ActiveSync for Windows XP.

Note2: Begin with your device NOT connected to your pc.

First we are going to disable USB connections so QMAT can succesfully communicate with your device.

To do this, open the Windows Mobile Device Center.

Click on "Mobile Device Settings" and then click on "Connection Settings".

Untick "Allow USB Connections" in the new window that just popped up.

Click on "Ok" and then close Windows Mobile Device Center.

Step 2

Enter bootloader mode with your device, DO NOT CONNECT YOUR DEVICE JUST YET!. To do this:

* Remove the stylus from your phone then remove the back cover from the phone.

* Hold the Volume Down button.

* Use the stylus to press the reset hole.

* Or if the device was powered off, hold the volume down button and then press the power button to turn the device on.

You should see "Serial" at the bottom of the screen.

Step 3

Connect your phone to your pc using a USB cable, any USB to Mini-USB cable should be fine, just to be on the safe side you could use the USB cable from the original packaging.

The word "Serial" at the bottom of the screen should turn into "USB", also if this is your first time entering bootmode and connecting your device to the pc it should install some drivers and stuff...this is normal :)

Step 4

Now the real stuff begins....

Open up QMAT

Click "Hardware Forensics" at the top of the program.

Click on "Use Mobile Ports" at the sub-menu which just appeared.

Click on the tab "Modem Port (Async)"

Click on either Start USB (Vista) if you have vista, or Start Serial (XP) if you have XP.

If everything wen't ok the button you just clicked turned into "Stop USB". Just don't click it just yet:p

In the Textfield at the left of the buttons you type in:

"info 8" (without the quotes afcourse...) and then press return (enter).

All kinds of information should start popping up in the big textfield below.

Scroll up....and you should see something like this:

info 8

--- 2K bytes sector version ---

DEVICE NAME=*YOUR INFO HERE*
DEVICE ID=*YOUR INFO HERE*
DEVICE MAKER ID=*YOUR INFO HERE*
PAGE SIZE=*YOUR INFO HERE*
TOTAL PAGE SIZE=*YOUR INFO HERE*
BLOCK COUNT=*YOUR INFO HERE*
BLOCK PAGE=*YOUR INFO HERE*

This is what it displayed with me:

Your brand is stated after "Device Name". Now...please reply with this information if the one you're seeing is displaying ANYTHING else then samsung_kby00xxx (specially if it's stating Hynix)

You can select the text needed and copy it to a notepad file or any other text-file...or this forum afcourse :)

After you're finisht, hit "Stop USB" and close down QMAT.

Safely remove your device from your pc, reset it and it should start up again as normal.

Re-enable usb connection in the Windows Mobile Device Center.

Thanks to Olipro for personally giving instructions to me on how to do all of this in the first place.

Make Video tutorial.
