I am really a newbie for dealing with ROM. Please be kind to bear my "stupid" questions!:D

What do you mean "dump a splash.nb from a rhodium RUU"? How to do it exactly?

Can I backup the ROM of my device to my desktop PC for reuse? And How?

I already checked with the NBHUtil 0.92. However, there is no Rhodium in the target device menu list. How can I do?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] animelover:
This screenshot only shows your bootloader and not the mentioned WM6.5! Is it really true? I think not! ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] hyperpsychodreamer:
It's true

I bought one from China, and I have checked out many more in store. all the Rhodiums selling in Mainland China come with this rom.

I have dumped it and checked it out, it is mostly ported from a Blackstone ROM, and includes Titanium. it DOES NOT play nicely with the keyboard, and doesn't support some of the Rhodium conference features (ie lay the phone face down and it switches to speakerphone mode).

However, it is NOT unlocked, it is still running stock SPL

i successfully upgraded it to the WWE Asia ROM 1.19.707.2

any q's please ask

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monx®:
I wonder if it is a real manufactured by HTC or a clone from China. They can clone everything nowaday :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] hyperpsychodreamer:
its true they clone everything here, but only to make it look like the original, invariably the functions/interface will be incredibly simple.

there are a lot of iphone fakes, but its very easy to tell they are fake.

they even clone ovens over here, except they just look like ovens, in fact they are sterilizers for kitchenware (go figure)!

these Rhodiums are all the real deal, except they are graymarket (shui3huo4), so you dont get any warranty with them at all. if you want to by one in mainland china with warranty and full support it will cost over US$1000
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monx®:
sorry for my curiousity, did u tried to hard-reset the device? if yes & the system stick there, maybe they use the img update feature :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
Hi, I upload the photos of the startmenu and os verion for your reference.

However, I actrully don't know whether if a WM6.5. Of course, it can't be a official WM 6.5 as microsoft does not release WM6.5 yet.

But please DON'T say I made or edited these photos with PS! :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
It's not true, except yours is not as same as mine. I can use my hardware keyboard to key in no matter English but also Chinese.

I do have and be using the function on my Rhodium that "lay the phone face down and it switches to speakerphone mode".

Is it serious my device is still running stock SPL? I have no experence to tell the SPL version.

How do you upgraded the ROM with stock SPL?

Would you please tell me how to dump the ROM of my device?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redmanmark86:
oh please dump this asap!!!!

here is a link on how to do it

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=501871

PS, does it come with English menus as well?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
Sorry for my poor english firstly!

What do you mean "does it come with English menus as well"?

Anyway, I aready confirmed my ROM is running on the STOCK SPL. I can't flash the ROM with the file named "RUU_Rhodium_hTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.19.721.3_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.27_Signed_Ship.exe"!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] hyperpsychodreamer:
i know you can use the keyboard to input english and chinese, but some of the extra "FN" shortcuts do not function as intended, so it is obviously not a standard HTC release for this keyboard, it is a hack

maybe you dont know what "lay the phone face down and it switches to speakerphone mode" means

also SMSing from within manila fails more often than not, and it does not let you see the full text of previous messages. the WWE Asia .2 rom fixes these issues, and the automated speakerphone works too. and the FN shortcuts on the keyboard all work too

as i told you before, your device is still running STOCK SPL.

the simplified chinese ROM is a full chinese rom, there's no possibility of changing it to english, and no english menus (bar a couple in bluetooth settings). ultimately it is a substandard hack/mash up of a blackstone rom with WM6.5. as i can read chinese, i put up with it until the WWE Asia ROM was released, and, as i mentioned in my previous post, you can upgrade it to that ROM, however the WWE HK ROM will obviously not work.

i have dumped this rom, and upon examination found it to be poorly put together and not worth sharing. i will repeat, it is not a rhodium rom, and its a fully CHS rom. i definately would not use it as a base to cook from, there are far better kitchens out there, and you are better off getting the OS and OEM from a rom made for the Rhodium.

regards,

HPD
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
I tested all of the extra "FN" shortcuts, those green symbol on the keyboard. Most of them work fine,except the one "FN"+"SYM" as I don't know what it's for.

I do know what "lay the phone face down and it switches to speakerphone mode" means, although my English is actrully poor. :D

I lay the phone face down onto the table, during the phone call with my wife. And the phone turns into speakerphone mode automaticlly so that my son and I can chat with my wife together. However, I do never test it in multi-ways conference call.

However, it's true the menu of the bluetooth setting is in English.

=======================================================

Hi, HPD,

The above is just for your information.

Now I think maybe you are right. The ROM is mash up hack.

I check my IMEI number online and it show up my device is sold to GBR(Great Britain,I think).

I think you upgrade the ROM to Asia WWE via SD card, nor from the RUU exe file.

However, I can only find the asia WWE in EXE format online.

Would you please tell me how to get the NBH file from the relase exe file?

Regards.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jzhyok:
just use WinRAR to extract the exe file and you will get the NBH ( or simply rename the *.exe to *.rar and open it to get the file)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
Thank you for your reply.

I find there are tow NBH files in the exe file. One is RUU_signed.nbh and the other is SPL_signed.nbh. I think I just only need to copy the RUU_signed.nbh to my TF card and bypass the SPL_signed.nbh. Am I right?

BTW,

Can you tell me the difference between the HK WWE version and the ASAIN WWE version?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jzhyok:
I havn't tried flashing a ROM through a MicroSD card yet, so I think you should search for more info.

But in my opinion, only the biggest file(mostly RUU_signed.nbh) is needed and you have to rename it(sry I forgot the name it should be).

check my post for HK WWE ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=539361

Some details:

Supports Chinese displaying(CHT and CHS) 支持繁体、简体显示

Includes PinYin, CangJie, ZhuYin IME 包含拼音、仓颉、注音输入法

Chinese hand-writing not included 没有中文手写输入

FM included 包含FM收音机程序

I don't know about the ASIAN version since I never used it, but I think it did not support Chinese.

By the way, since your Pro2 is GBR version(you mentioned in your last post), if you wanna flash HK or ASIAN ROM, you will have to make a Goldcard to unlock the CID. Once you have a Goldcard, you don't need to extract the nbh files from the exe, just flash it through normal steps(ie. run the exe and flash).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
I am still confused how to Flash a customized Simplified Chinese WM 6.5 ROM into a GBR version device while there is no Hard SPL ready and the GOLD CARD need a signed shiped official ROM?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] bigbow:
Could you tell me how did you flash your rom without unlock hardspl? By GoldCard？
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
HPD ever mentioned in another thread on this forum that he upgrade via SD card. I think it is a Gold Card.

It's possible to flash ASIAN WWE which is one of a signed shiped ROM.

However, the Chinese WM 6.5 is one of customized ROM which all say can't be flashed via Gold Card. Then how did it go into my device with GBR IMEI?This is really a puzzle!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] congpay:
Hi bro, as long as there's no HardSPL, Goldcard is the only way to go. I have the chinese ROM at first when I bought it in china. Now it's flashed with ASIAN WWE ROM using Goldcard method. Contact cmonex if you need details...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stepw:
GBR unit may have had an MFG SPL before your Chinese ROM was flashed. Stock SPL may have been flashed afterwards...

Can you still flash custom ROMs?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
Hi bro, maybe you did not understand my question?!

The GoldCard can help to flash a signed shiped ROM. The ASIAN WWE ROM is a signed shiped ROM so you can flash it via GoldCard. I also flashed my ROM to ASAIN HK WWE ROM.

However, the simplified chinese ROM is certainly not a signed shiped ROM which can't be flash via GoldCard.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
Yeah, but who would do this? I don't believe the distributors in the gray market will replace the MFG SPL with stock SPL. I think they will sell the device with MFG SPL in higher price. Am I right?:p

I have no other custom rom of Rhodium in my hand. So I did not try it.

However,as my experence, I can't flash the ASIAN WWE ROM or ASIAN HK WWE ROM without the help of the Gold Card.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DaveShaw:
MFG SPL's don't have override protections like Hard SPL does, so it may just have been an accident :eek:.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dwbchen:
Hi,

Just wanted to check if the stock rom includes radio?

I am also a newbie and have read for some roms, it would only work with certain radio, or is that only applicable for a cooked rom? I am interested as I seem to have a rather odd radio version (3.44.25.17) that seemed to only exist as a test rom (see other threads in xda developers).

And also, what about the protocol versions?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DaveShaw:
All stock ROM's include a radio.

And the protocol version will change when flashing new Radio ROM combo's IIRC (I've never looked into it ;))

Dave
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] net_walker:
Accident? Of course maybe:D

However, there are a lof of this kind of device in the China market. I don't think all of them were made by accident.

I think there are only three optional answers as following:

1) The Hard SPL has been ready somewhere.

2) There is another way to flash customized ROM except Hard SPL.

3) There simplified chinese version WM 6.5 is signed with official signature in a certain way.

Which should we choose?

Hello!

On my HTC Diamond Touch the touch screen doesn't work anymore (i don't know why). I've resetet the device and removed the battery. The problem is still there.

Unfortunately, my last setting for USB was "disk". Therefore I can only access the internal storage.

Is there still a way to get my sms and my address book????

Thanks in advance!

Weird!

I'm having the same problem too lately. It often happens when the back of my phone is hot (not the battery itself bu just the area under the battery). But when I stop charging it and the back cools down, suddenly I can use the touchscreen again.

@GlammaKid

Maybe you could use MyMobiler. I'm not sure if it connects to your device if it's not in activesync mode though.

I did manage to get all the .apk signed and the .zip signed.

It did verify and install just fine.

I setup the phone

BUT when I got to the home screen .. it was ALL black with the pull down bar and could NOT access anything at all on the screen.

So I am wondering IF this may not be compatible with the JF1.51MOD from lucid`s page .. BUT it does say that it is for the JF1.51

I did manage to successfully add the HTC_IME to the JF1.51MOD but without the home auto rotate :(

any ideas on how to get this going? is it a bad AndroidManifest file for that version? or bad period?

I did try to wipe and flash several times .. but nothing

since you're using JF 1.5 why not just install the Hero theme? it has auto rotate home. Just download the file, rename it to update.zip and put it in the root of your card. then go to recovery mode and apply the update.zip

I have used the hero theme and the JacHero doesnt have the home auto-rotate (well not that I saw anyhow).. the cyogen does .. but thats not really hero by any means.

Nice job. I installed your build when you first put it out. AT&T apps are definitely gone, which is a good start, but I was not able to get GPS to get a lock. We still have some figuring out to do on the GPS issues...and I think it won't be right until Samsung puts out a new update as the problems seem to be in the radio firmware.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pap3rw8:
When I first got my epix and after I installed the official update, GPS wouldn't lock either. It took about 30 min to get the first lock. Also, make sure you have the correct ports set up in External GPS settings (Samsung ships the epix with GPS on GDP1, not COM1).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pap3rw8:
If you didn't know, the button shortcuts are in the registry at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys.

I found that editing the registry to set the Messaging button to :MSINBOX instead of the default Messaging.lnk makes it open *much* faster. Maybe you could set this in the next version of the ROM.
