[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] j1978:
Hello guys

I have been dying to flash my blackstone for a while now but i was scared of damaging it.

Anyway i went through all the tutorials (tyvm to everyone) and i think i am finally ready.

I just want to check a few things before i go for it.

Please correct me if i am doing something wrong thanks in advance.

My spl is 1.14.0000.

so i need to upgrade it to official spl 1.54.

Question: 1. I want to use USPL i understand that dosnt void my warranty right?

I downloaded all files in cRaCKwHoRe's TUT

in order to do that.

I have also updated my usb drivers.

I have a copy of Duttys' 3.9 Rom.

Questions: 2. If i upgrade to spl 1.54 from that post i wouldent need to reswitch it ever to 1.14 for warranty purposes right?

3. Are their any risks

at all

of bricking the device while flashing?

4. I tried downloading the official rom upgrade why did i get a ''this rom is not for your device message"?

5. I read their is a way of flashing from the sd card i understand i need a BLACIMG.NBH file where can i get it is there a Tutorial for this?

6. My phone is Branded should i save/backup the stock branded rom just in case?

Sorry for the long post ;)

Thank you.

Hey everybody, I was wondering if anyone knows the cheapest place to order the tp2 online.... as AT&T has yet to even announce this device, I am getting tired of waiting and would like to order an unlocked import model. I found a great price on this website... http://www.esalesllc.com/HTC/HTC-Touch-Pro2-T7373-Smartphone-Black-Grey-Unlocked-p16.html

but I fear it is a scam. Has anyone ordered from here? And more importantly, where can I get it at a good price? Thanks everyone in advance.

I Bought The Upgrade from Motorola

I paid for the upgrade from Motorola as listed here:

http://software.symbol.com/detail.cfm?prod=1812

I followed the installation instructions that come with the installer and it failed. I sent an email to Moto 5 days ago and they have yet to get back to me. I'll udpate when I know more.

Thanks all,

Hi!

Can anyone provide news regarding the update of the Symbol MC50? An working Android port would be great too, but i don't think there is any port to the device available..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mrdummy:
Forget Android port.

But you can upgrade to WM5.0 for free:

Upgrade takes approx 10 minutes.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] EarthBoundX5:
I feel like I'm going crazy...anyone have any ideas on what I'm missing here?

I cannot browse to my SD card with the File Manager OR with a third party file manager.

In Memory, the only "Removable Device"s I see are "Application" and "Plantform"

When booting into IPL, I can view the files on the SD card...

I've tried FAT32 and FAT16, no difference (except oddly, FAT16 could not be read from IPL)

What could I be missing to be able to view the SD card within Windows Mobile? I know I could just manually run the .hex files in IPL...but I trust doing that.

Also, anyone with experience doing this upgrade; will I loose the Symbol Demo Applications?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mitac112:
Hi,

When I charging my magic I get ~1%/min rate but when it reach 99% i have to wait 15 minutes to get full 100% charge. Why is that?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] minogue:
most likely because its not calibrated right!

no big deal though! however to fix this and better your battery life you must let your phone die completely until it wont turn on, and then fully charge it... this way the battery will calibrate itself...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mitac112:
I do this couple of times without result :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] minogue:
hmmm. dont know what else to tell you.

I did this to my g1 and the battery pretty much improved and i also didnt have the problem where it would get stuck at 99% and then take very to fully charge...

but like i said, its actually not a big deal. i mean once it gets to 99%, your phone realizes its not fully charge and takes longer as it tries to completely get it to 100% Charge
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
download battery status free from the market,or spare tools and look what it says about the health of your battery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ADchemist:
This is not true with Li-Ion batteries. You have to opportunity charge them. You should not let the battery go below 50 percent before charging it again.

Read here.

http://batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hondaguy:
mine does the same thing. its no big deal. i am guessing that it is set up to charge very fast up to a certain point, then trickle charge. i have noticed on mine that when it charges really fast to 99% if i take it off the charger and use it for 10 min or so the battery level will drop down faster than normal, then level out again. lots of phones do this

[Touch HD General] ExO_PoLiTiX:
Hi,

I dont know if this is the right place to ask this but I was planning on putting my HTC Touch HD up for sale (planning on buying a HTC Hero :) ). I've only had it a few months and not used it that much, as I use a work phone the majority of the time. No scratches on screen or phone itself at all. I plan on selling with a variety of applications I have downloaded over the few months. I am thinking of setting the asking price as £300. I was wondering if you thought this was reasonable giving this description.

Cheers for any responses :)

EDIT: Meant to add that the phone is locked to the orange network at the moment.
[Touch HD General] ozmoran:
Thats a pretty good price, you could check what there selling for on Ebay too you may even get offers on here also there is a Marketplace thread you can post on which will draw interest, I wouldnt worry about the being on Orange as people can flash new Roms and not have to use Orange, I would attach Pictures of course.........Good luck, If i didnt have a wife I would buy a second HD from you lol
[Touch HD General] 2'NixorNot2'Nix:
Price on E-Bay for 'real' sales rather then ones that sell then get re-listed a couple of days later have been dropping pretty consistently.

I'd say £220-£240 is probably a good target price now.
[Touch HD General] ExO_PoLiTiX:
haha thanks man, i hope i get it sold too :) really fancy the hero!

tell your wife am disappointed :P just kiddin.

I'll give the market place thread a go, didnt know there was such a thread.

I guess i'd settle for £240ish for it if it came to it.

Thanks for the responses.
[Touch HD General] MAMeingast:
Why not buy a HD for your wife then? ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] invertedflyboy:
My FUZE won't boot past the white AT&T Worldphone screen. After a few seconds I get a message in red letters at the top of the screen that says:

Warning!

Battery Level Too Low!

Your Device will Shutdown!

and it does.

I bought 2 new batteries and a external charger, thinking the battery died.

That did not help.

I've HardSPL'd and was running a 6.5 ROM.

Tried reset, hard reset.

Tried flashing back to stock ROM via SD CARD.

It runs off battery fine when you press the buttons to go into flash mode.

When you plug a charging cable into the phone with a battery the circle light flashes 4 times slowly and stops.

Any ideas on how to rescue?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Cheesebaron:
Yes you do, you have to have root to be able to replace system files.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] minogue:
Root is not yet possible on the Mytouch.

it is being worked on but for now you must stick to Googles keyboard

and or buy "better keyboard" from the market

[General Questions and Answers] mosimo:
Got a choice in the next month for a phone upgrade at work. Right now I have a htc diamond. I find the screen a bit small and irritating to type on. I've used an iphone and can type very fast with both thumbs, the diamond however I struggle with and need to take my time or use the stylus. That is one plus for the touch HD (bigger screen)

I do program in c# so I can do stuff for win mobile too (hardly really made anything worth bragging about though). I am however willing to learn C or what ever language you use on an android, just for the hell of it.

What I like about the android is it seems like it will be getting a lot more games/random apps kinda like the iphone has. To me that is a plus and one of the reason's I fancy an android phone. Games on the diamond are basically sim city, age of empires, that defence game and a few other crappy ones.

What are peoples opinions on the two phones in question. Basically I'm after this which both phones pretty much cover:

Bgger screen than my diamond (but without a keyboard)

Something that will amuse with me with new games/toys every so often.

Built in gps (both have it)

Sat nav (not sure whats available for the android apart from google maps, will look soon)

Sync emails/contacts/calendar to my exchange server at work
[General Questions and Answers] orb3000:
I would think about Diamond 2 and Hero

And will depend on wich OS you prefer...

Personally I think Andorid need some time to become a more mature OS

I would go for D2 or Tosh TG0 before and HD

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadshotx:
Hi there,

i searched here in the forum but most of the threads i found for my problem didnt really answer my questions or they where not specific enough.

I got a X1 (bought it in Germany), i want to change the OS language to chinese. I want to give this phone to a chinese friend of mine.

Most important would be:

1. Change the GUI in Chinese

2. Chinese input methods (reading/writing)

3. Stable and fast would be nice^^

Actually i want to change the whole phone like its a x1 bought in China

What i understood is that the Hong Kong x1's comes with integrated CE-Star and a chinese GUI.That sounds as the easiest approach to my goal.

Anyway, what would be the simplest way to get this done?

As i am pretty new to all this..please dont bomb me with too much technical stuff. A brief description or a FAQ or something else would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your help and patience.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gwystyl:
Look in the ROM section and flash a Chinese (CHT?) rom, like Jack's?

I think (looking at the way you ask the question), you haven't flashed a rom before. I recommend to read the sticky's in the rom section first, so you know what to do. In short:

1. HardSPL (if you don't know what that is, read this)

2. Flash ROM via windows (X1_customRUU), or SD card method

For the Chinese rom, I recommend hylu's WM6.5 because it is stable and include Chinese input method like Zhuyin and Changjie

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=501949

About the CE star, X1 selling CHT and ENG version in Hong Kong. The ENG version will include CE star(seem with reg key) but CHT version will not include.

If you flash English rom, you can also install some plug-in then your English rom can display Chinese word and typing Chinese by using Zhuyin and Changjie

Here is the Chinese plug-in

Are your friends using simplified Chinese or traditional Chinese?

Hope I can help you. :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackleung:
If you want stock rom, check the rom section for CHS (simplified Chinese) or CHT (Traditional Chinese).

For custom CHT rom, I heard hylu's is quite good. For custom CHS rom, you may want to take a look at it168.

Mine is just English w/ CE start built in.

Preferably a CHS rom. So i am thinking i should either hylu´s or jackleung´s.

What do you guys think? I am really not sure what features are good or not. There are some where i dont even understand what this features might bring ^^

Anyway, the phone has not to be super highly customizable. Anyway, all i want in the end is a phone running in all chinese (simplified) and some nice features and some customization...

I hope you can help me make my choice. Thx in advance

Good to see you found a new home! Was loving your ROMs over at PPCG, glad to know I can continue to enjoy them. After you left I looked into a couple of new ROMs that were kicking around but found myself a little disappointed.
