Hello,

First, I would like to say "thank you" to developpers and to appologize for my bad english (french powered :) )

I have some stupid questions :) : When, approximately, are we going to have a good winmo 6.1 rom (with less bug)? A winmo 6.1 with the htc touchflo (I would love it!!!!!) and a winmo 6.5 rom?

I don't know if I can help, but I'm going to check the irc channel tomorrow and see what I can do to help.

Thanks!

Nicolas

Toshiba T01a Made me Disapointed

1-Bluetooth and Internet can not be used at once!

When Bluetooth is on and I want to use intenet an error masage tell me that you must turn of the other conection that means to turn of the bluetooth and when the internet conection is on I can not turn on bluetooth.

Can someone please help me to fix this limitation!!!

2-Another ugly point is I cant use this device for internet sharing gateway!!There is no internet sharing Icon in there.

3-I can use external headphone jack for headphone but I can not use the RCA connector to use the device in my car as a Music player.
[TG01 ROM Development] homejun:
any update ?somebody have english vision?
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
still don't have anything. we must wait :(
[TG01 ROM Development] leeston2379:
Just about point 3, haven't got mine yet so dont know but could you not use the headphone jack and connect to your car?

i m having some much fun
[TG01 ROM Development] Davidken:
I can only conect to my car stereo from bluetooth Remote Controller Headphone Jack.That means I have a Limitation of Battery life and No Internet Conection!!! Too bad for me!
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
I´m being impatient here, is there really nothing i can do to help things moving forward (since i´m using a TG01 for almost a month now)?

Do you still need a Rom? Or is it useless in the moment? :confused:
[TG01 ROM Development] davideuck:
Hi friends,

finally I've my TG01 :D

I've tried to contact cmonex via MP but she doesn't answer, I don't know if she's busy or she has disabled MP... I hope she'll answer soon :)

Anyway, can someone tell me how to find the right addresses to use with pmemdump.exe to dump the bootloader?

No one know how can we find a tool to flash our TG01?

At last, can we reconstruct a TG01 rom without an official rom?

Please, if someone could help, write here.
[TG01 ROM Development] stepw:
Congrats with your new toy!

Run itsme's pmemmap or HaRET (someone reported HaRET is flaky on TG01) to grab the memory map on your device. Most likely bootloader will be at physical offset 0, but it doesn't have to. Physical addresses not in the mem map table are not likely to be accessible at all.

Dump as much physical memory as you can from each 128Mb boundary (e.g. 0x00000000, 0x08000000, 0x10000000, etc...) for each segment you see in memory map. Chances are the bootloader will be in one of the dumps. This may cause your device to hang or malfunction though, do at your own risk.

There's also a chance Toshiba protected RAM region where the bootloader is located or the bootloader is cleared from RAM upon OS boot and it can't be dumped like this, but it's unlikely.

It's possible there won't be a tool to flash TG01 at all, everyone suggests there'll be an OTA upgrade to Wm6.5 provided by Toshiba later this year. The only (minor) update Toshiba had released so far was OTA.

You can probably rebuild/tweak ROM dump using existing tools, but until target format is known, what's the use? Once Da_G's ULDR project is finished, someone could try producing a cooked TG01 ROM in OTA format, but without proper signing it won't work anyway...

PS Cmonex had mentioned in Rhodium forums she's busy in 'real life', be patient... Or hop on to the IRC.
[TG01 ROM Development] chavonbravo:
Don't bother dumping bootloader from RAM. You can get it, but it gets overwritten in important parts, so it's of no use. But don't worry, cmonex has the bootloader and more. Just wait is all I can say. She seems very busy.

I can tell you that it seems having a file named TG01*.bin, .tsw, or .enc in /prg folder of sd card is needed. How to get the bootloader into download mode is another thing. Maybe a file like SDDownloadTool.exe for the G910 update is needed or a key sequence on power up.
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
Custom tg01 roms & tweak coming soon. Another thing, who can provide htc rma III account ?
[TG01 ROM Development] salvy.c.83:

tg01 battery lif

so i have had my device for over a week now (uk orange) and fail to get more than 8 hrs use with less than 10 mins of calls no email no blue tooth no wifi, no media use either.

If bluetooth is on email checking every 15 mins same ammount of calls 5 mins internet use the battery still goes flat at arround 8 hours.

strange thing yesterday I thought all was ok as it reported 100% all day long then switched off without warning in a call 7 hrs after taking off charge.

Now is this problem just orange rom related or is it worldwide?

And was this virus that was reported in the german o2 roms anything power related?

Please post your findings along with operator / rom vertion

my s/w is 5001.0001.58

sp-00

radio 5001.0001.58

Unlock SIM?

How to unlock SIM Toshiba TG01 Orange (Fr)?
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
The Virus didn´t do anything at all and wasn´t located in the Rom, it was on the 8GB SD Card provided with the TG01.

After a month of usage i´m having no problem at all with my battery, that means i´m leaving fully charged at 7 in the morning and still have power in the evening when i come home.

I´m running 5001.0102.57, SP-00

Daily usage consists a hand full of sms, some calls (like you said, maybe 10-15 Minutes), gaming (maybe half an hour), Bluetooth always off (not using it), maybe 2 Hours of WiFi with MSN, Skype and Opera. Maybe you should check your GPS? I´ve got mine only active if i´m actually using it. Oh, and i´m customizing my interface each and every day and play a lot with it.

And sadly i guess Borce_Razor was refering to your recent efforts davideuck & chavonbravo, am i right Borce?

Greetings,

Sin
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
23th July 2009, somebody sent me mail with information for shipped toshiba tg01 roms. but still no answer from guy :(

ps: also no answer from mobile@toshiba.co.uk, customer_operations@toshiba.co.uk
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
Okay, that sounds interesting.

Btw, i haven´t received an answer from customer_operations@toshiba.co.uk as well, have sent them two mails ages ago. :rolleyes:
[TG01 ROM Development] homejun:
keep waiting.have you received the new rom?
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
It´s hard to understand what he was trying to say, if i understood right he has already received an e-mail with information about different roms.

So he could at least share those information with us. It seems as if Borce has replied to that initial "infomail" with some questions which remain unanswered?

I don´t think that he was waiting for an actual rom or other useful tools.
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
What is so hard to understand here ? Some dude sent me mail, with info that he have access to internal Toshiba support (something like htc rma III i think). So i asked him about tg01 rom, but no answer.

My English is too bad or ?
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
Hehe, no, your post just left enough room for interpretation. That´s why i was asking/speculating.
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
It seems that we won't get anything for this device :(
[TG01 ROM Development] davideuck:
If the situation is this, without news, I think we have to wait the official WM6.5 rom upgrade. When it'll be available we should be able to do something.

Anyway, I hope that something will appen soon :rolleyes:

Hi guys,

I know that is not the topic for that, but please, I don't want open new thread for just one question.

Is someone found how to increase the volume of the bell please?

It's very low and at the maximum, i don't hear when it ring.

I tried to hack registry but no success.

Thanks for any help.
[TG01 ROM Development] souljaboy:
heres a french one

http://rapidshare.com/files/253526287/Utils.rar
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
Unfortunately none of the known methods is working with the TG01.

Temporary Workaround: Use modified MP3 as Ringtone (use MP3 Gain or a similar tool to increase the volume, but be careful! You could damage your speaker)

€: Souljaboy, what exactly is it what you´ve uploaded? French 6.1 Stock Rom? It seems quite big.
[TG01 ROM Development] badaas:

Here's how to 'hard reset' your TG01!

- Power off device

- Hold down 'volume up' and 'camera' buttons

- Press power button

- Follow on screen prompts

Sorted!

htc similar?

[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
I tried using the Software Ateksoft CoolCamera on the TG01, which frustrated the hell out of me since the application is ment for smartphones and requires hardkeys to operate. ( i tried using it with my gamepad/keyboard, wasnt that satisfying)

The software has one feature which i would really like to try out.

- High resolution (up to 1600x1200) video in Motion Jpeg AVI format

Do you know any other software for ppc that could achieve something like this?

I think an small application which uses some kind of modified burst mode without the preview in between could produce some decent results with the snapdragon ( i guess the camera shutter speed is the limiting factor, but im not expecting super fluid 60fps video). And also i´m not talking 1600x1200 necessarily, 720p would be pleasing enough. ^^
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
I'm looking for same app mate, long time ago. Also HTC don't have good video recording options, but the problem is qualcomm msm7xxx chip.

This Ateksoft CoolCamera really work, can capture vga or bigger videos ?
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
It is supposed to do that, but i only managed to shoot a VGA Video at 5fps...

But it has been the trial version, full is supposed to shoot video up to 1600x1200. But i have to admit that this app is optimized for xscale processors, so i´m lucky enough that it even ran and recognized the camera.

Pretty useless app, but the only one i could find so far.
[TG01 ROM Development] xILukasIx:
Any ROM-related news?

I can't wait any longer! :D

[TG01 ROM Development] mo3ulla:
well . guys can you make a dump? .. i really wanna know who real manufacturer of this phone

for example

TOSHIBA G900 and G910 - MANUFACTURED BY TECHFAITH WIRELESS COMMUNICATION ( phones made in china ) toshiba smartphones as well techfaith creations

TOSHIBA g810 - QUANTA COMPUTERS .. (phone made in china as well )

ps = dont expext rom ... or 6.5 update .. toshiba will not do it
[TG01 ROM Development] mo3ulla:
LOL :D

examination of dump indicates

80% chance = TG01 TECHFAITH as well as G900 and G910
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
The 6.5 Update for the TG01 has been confirmed on several pages and even my carrier confirmed it.
[TG01 ROM Development] davideuck:
Hi,

why couldn't we expect a 6.5 update?

There are many video on youtube with TG01 running WM6.5 roms, and of course they are not cooked by someone but Toshiba roms.

So, what could be a reason to deny 6.5 update to TG01's owners??

They want to sell the next PDAs? And can they do this without offering a good support to their owners(like G900's times)? It would be a stupid policy, in this way they can't compete with the other giants.

But obviously this is my idea, I don't work at Toshiba :p, so, I don't know their ideas.

Anyway, do you have an idea on how could we flash TG01 with custom roms?

You know, I've a full respect for you and your skills since Uni era, I hope you can help.

If you need something to test, just tell me what, I'm ready :)
[TG01 ROM Development] mo3ulla:
:D get up grom emerald dream ..they OFFICIALY promised 6.1 upgrade for g910 - in the end nothing .

g900 0 official roms also officialy does not flashable at all... but device have serious bugs

and btw . on toshiba page - ZERO remarks about upcoming update :D

g910+g900 as well as tg01 techfaith devices which NOT supported at all . before dumping i have a hope about quanta... but ....... hope is lost .. device manufacturer is a techfaith :( . techfaith means zerosupport.. bugs everywhere . i rly dont wana toshiba sex again . after g900 i rly wanna dont wana this sex again ( with drivers in beta state with large debug data which unstable ) . half year of cleaning techfaith cr** on g900

better wait htc on snapdragon .. or you will have toshiba sex ( acronim for all wet and not market ready so called toshiba devices ) .. but maybe you love unstable and bugged pocket :D:D:D
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
****, **** **** ****innnnnnnnnnnnnnn toshiba, techfaith :(:(:( I won't buy any tgxx device after reading this. And, unfortunatelly this is true. We won't see any soft upgrade for tg01, wm 6.5, or something else.

Can somebody try various key combinations for entering download/boot/upgrade etc etc mode ?
[TG01 ROM Development] davideuck:
I've tried MANY combinations but nothing!:mad:

The only one, apart hard reset, I've found is volume down and power on at the same time, in this way it starts with the first Toshiba splash and after few seconds it restart itself. It could be that there's a double command, like first step volume down/power on, then, when it restart, another combination. But I've tried this way too without success :(
[TG01 ROM Development] stepw:
Have anyone tried attaching to TG01 with QMAT? It doesn't support Snapdragon (yet?), but if QC diagnostics interfaces are exposed, QMAT might be able to plug in.

davideuck,

1.

When the device is booting after VolDn+Power combination, what happens

- if SD card is not in?

- if USB is connected to a PC?

- if there is

Any difference at all or it restarts all the same?

2.

Did you try dumping RAM at all? As per chavonbravo, BL is broken in RAM, but there's other stuff like kernel debug message log that may be available in these chunks:

v80000000-8e000000 -> p12000000-20000000 e000000
v8e000000-8e100000 -> p00100000-00200000 100000
v8e100000-8f600000 -> p02b00000-04000000 1500000
v8f600000-8f700000 -> p00000000-00100000 100000
vf0400000-f0500000 -> p00000000-00100000 100000

If dumping fails by physical offset, you can try virtual too...
[TG01 ROM Development] borce_razor:
WTF :D Pls somebody post bootloader dump of tg01. And one question, all toshiba wm phones are techfaith made ? Or only few ?
[TG01 ROM Development] davideuck:
If someone could tell me how to dump the bootloader I'll do. Please step by step guide, I've never done this before :p
[TG01 ROM Development] mo3ulla:
yes . they all techfaith .. only 1 phone is quanta ( g810 )
[TG01 ROM Development] mo3ulla:
i write david in pm . i have exp in TECHFAIL phones we nearly complete reserch for another techfailth creations - g910 history there http://www.portegeclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2107 ,, but development frozen coz i dont have a device to test . if situation same as g910 you may NEVER RECEIVE CUSTOM ROMS FOR THIS PHONE .. coz you must be a ROM GOD to make tsw ..1 mistake in rom and device dead
[TG01 ROM Development] mo3ulla:
you cant dump real bootloader which actually load os.. you will dump only KITL and debug loader without any romupdate data or sequinces ..
[TG01 ROM Development] stepw:
QMAT is a QC tool, it's not HTC specific. There's always a risk to damage the device regardless of how well its firmware is designed. No risk - no gain.
[TG01 ROM Development] stepw:
Seeing is believing, do you have a proof?
[TG01 ROM Development] mo3ulla:
i previously worked on another techfaith phone .. G910 .. we dumped real bootloader ( 7.5 mb ELF file with sd loader and rom update sequince ) it via self programed tools which hooks handler of disk and dump all what they can
[TG01 ROM Development] stepw:
TG01 != G910, so this is a moot point.

If TG01 was designed by the same engineers, it's likely to be similar, but it may be different too. Time will tell...
[TG01 ROM Development] chavonbravo:
A .tsw file is hard, yes. But it's not necessary. A .bin file is much easier. I've seen a .tsw and .bin, but not a .enc, so I don't know what format .enc is in.

A 6.5 rom for the tg01 does exist as the device has been shown with 6.5 before on videos, and someone that's well known around here has had a 6.5 rom update on tg01. I'm sure we just have to wait on the official update.

Like I said before, the SD Download code is in the radio (amss). I'm almost sure RIL_DevSpecific is used to initiate the download. I've gone through the g910 SDDownloadTool.exe, and know the parameters for that, but of course they'll be different for the TG01. I'm not proficient enough in IDA to discover what is needed. I'm sure that if we knew what parameters were needed to initiate the download, the g910 SDDownloadTool.exe could just be modified to fit needs. Hell, the radio even contains code to initiate a debug mode and tests.

Bottom line, just wait I guess, until a smarter IDA guy shows up, or Toshiba release the 6.5 update.

[TG01 ROM Development] stepw:

[TG01 ROM Development] chavonbravo:
It seems to have two, possible three, kinds of nand spare bytes in there, but besides that, I don't see anything like the htc signature at all.
[TG01 ROM Development] SinSilla:
Okay, i know that you guys are doing this stuff probably since a couple of years, and even if i don´t know mo3ulla (of course not, i´ve just came here recently) he seems to have a good reputation and obviously knows what he is talking about.

But nevertheless, how can you guys be so damn SURE that there won´t be anything official?

Is the Information about Techfaith granted? And what would that mean? Techfaith=Developer+Manufacturer, Toshiba=Publisher?

or Toshiba=Developer+Publisher, Techfaith=Manufaturer?

Does the fact that there is an 6.5 TG01 Rom lurking around mean nothing at all? It´s just hard for me to believe, not only because i´m being optimistic. :)

But i can definetely see where your skepticalness is coming from... ;)

@chavonbravo

Does this well known someone have a thread or something similar going on about this 6.5 rom for the TG01?

And just to get it right beforehand, i´m not *****ing around, i´m just a tad sad that i can´t do anything to help you guys and therefore just want to collect as many information as i can.

Thanks in advance for any reply.

But i you have a closer look at the TG01 results (low level 3d!!!) you can see that there is something wrong, really really wrong.

I did contact Southend, Developer of the upcoming OGL2.0 Electopia game for TG01, as well with some adreno related questions since neither Toshi/Qualcom/AMD did reply to any of my emails.
