Does anyone know when this will be released? Aug 3 is only a few days away and I've not heard anything about the lancaster since May.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaneaus:
I don't think Lancaster is going to make it!

Thanks for the suggestion for the Rogers phone.... Only issue is the COST!

I can (just did when I LOST my G1 two days ago) get a T-mobile G1 from Craigslist for $170.00 US. The cheapest G1 I say on Ebay-Canada was over $300.00!!!!

Looks like I'll just have to wait..... Wait..... Wait.....

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
Are you talking about JACHero Superlite versions? They don't have Rosie, but are still built off the Hero builds so you have flash and multi-touch and whatnot. Uses a launcher, not sure how many screens tho. Might wanna check it out.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jomtones:
Yeah that's what I'm using ... only a 3-screen launcher though, hence this thread!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiroots:
if your scared of flashing the spl because of brick use the old recovery. the one u pushed when you first root your g1. using the other/newer recoverys will most likely make your fone brick. due to it wont flash the spl the way it needs to. so just revert back to the old recovery and flash the spl and follow those directions. hopes this helps you out.

before you flash the spl. grab the old recovery then go to terminal and type

su [enter]

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

heres the link:

http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1RootWalkthrough/recovery.img

[put the file in the root of your sdcard.]

then once flashed reboot and flash the spl, remember to follow the directions to flash the new spl. heres the link.

Hello,

I have created a ROM, but it does not have root access - how do I add root access to this ROM?

Thanks,

Isaac
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Proxin:
From what I remember you need to go to Terminal, and type in:

telnetd

After that...

That's only for RC29 though, and in RC29 it executed anything you typed in, so you are supposed to type it into the home screen. More info here:

Hopefully it will work on the ROM you worked on as well.

Good luck!

Big fan of your app, btw. :)

Boot into the recovery console (power + home) and then drop into the shell (alt+x).

Then do this:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] pwisseh:
Hi guys!

My first post here, so forgive me if this was posted in the wrong forum!

Here goes, I have an HTC touch pro 2 and my boyfriend has different bookmarks/icons on his touchflo 3d (the line at the bottom with home, contacts, photos/videos, texts, emails etc) and I'd also like to have those on my phone. I tried using the search but nothing came up. I wondered if any of you knows where I can find those different icons/bookmarks?

And a silly other question, if found, could somebody also please explain how to install it?

Thanks so much!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
I don't understand. You found the picture here. I've written detailed instructions on how to install. So, what else do you need to know?

Also, please remove my screenshot from your post. You are pulling that shot directly from my Flickr account without linking to it. That is against Flickr's usage policy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] pwisseh:
First of all, sorry about the photo, Ive deleted it now! I didnt know it wasnt allowed, otherwise I wouldnt have done it.

Second, thanks for the link, Ill use that for installation.

Just to clear it up, I meant things like that, not neccesarily the one you posted, I also know someone who for example has a Hello Kitty-theme, and Ive seen Fire-themes, but Im just looking for other themes aswell, so I can choose which one I like most.

And before you ask, my boyfriend doesnt have the link anymore and couldnt find it, Im afraid :(

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] solevi:
If you are talking about info in Settings tab>All Settings>System>TouchFLO>About then same here, but if you go to settings tab itself and scroll down, You'll see "About TouchFLO 3D 2.1.38158.2"

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xBlackWolf90:
The Three network is offering free access to Windows Live Messenger on their handsets, and I'm considering switching to them on PAYG.

I'm curious as to whether this will be possible on the HTC Touch Diamond. Will the pre-loaded Windows Live Messenger application on the Diamond be accessible for free, or would standard data charges apply (as it is not a 3 branded version of the messenger app)?

I contacted Three, but they simply stated the device would not work on their network, despite the fact many people use it on 3, and the settings for the network are also pre-loaded onto the device.

Is anyone able to shed any light onto the matter?

Thanks in advance for any replies,

David.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] skaterdrew:
If I remember correctly, the app used by 3 is different to the official messenger app. So using the normal app would likely cause data charges.

*Update* Scrap that, it appears it may work as microsoft says that messenger use is free http://windowsliveformobile.com/en-gb/3/default.aspx
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xBlackWolf90:
I guess it's a matter of trying it and seeing what happens :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jez83uk:
I am also looking at 3uk payg at the moment.

To use msn for free you need to use their special app which won't run on windows mobile. 3 actually sell/sold the Kaiser but say that it doesn't support the free msn. I don't think the free skype will work either.

The free 150mb of data per topup will still give you a lot of messenger use though.

I'll probably be switching over in about a month, so would apreciate you posting if you do find out for certain before then.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xBlackWolf90:
The network I'm with is closing on the 26th August this year, so I won't be switching 'till then.

I think this is going to be pretty hard to find out. As you said, 150mb is a lot of messenger use, so I'll have to use up all the allowance before I can check.

Still, I'll give it a go and see what happens. Even if it's not free, it's still a better deal than any other network is offering at present in the UK for PAYG.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jez83uk:
I am also a Blyk refugee. Asda seem to be the cheapest for calls and texts, but the long lasting freebies on 3uk are swinging me that way - and 3g so faster as well.

I may have been wrong about skype. Reading in the kaiser section it seems that iskoot will allow you to make use of skype. Someone has made a cab which sets it up for 3, but I haven't found a definitive answer. I may try PMing some of the 3 users on here in a few days.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] saturn75:
I bought a brand new HTC TYTN 2 also called "Kaiser".

Now i want to change operator and want to unlock my phone.

Question is:

1. How and what do i need?

2. Something i should think of before i unlock my smartphone?
[Wing, P4350 General] Molokai:
My P4350 *always* comes up with the bootloader (tries to read the SD card).

I tried running heradiag.nbh but got the "Security Level" issue.

Then I tried just putting an officially signed RUU on the SD card - and it loaded successfully, upgrading my IPL and SPL from 4.xx.xxxx to 5.xx.xxxx

Unfortunately, it is still stuck in the bootloader, so I am unable to get back into WM.

My only guess now is that the camera button has taken enough physical abuse (from hitting the ground) so that it is engaged and puts me into the bootloader screen.

Anyone have any tips at this point? With the exception of that, everything seems to be fine and dandy :/

Molok
[Wing, P4350 General] ace10134:
Hmm. Don't you usually have to press the soft-reset button while holding the camera button to get into the bootloader? So then it shouldn't be going into the bootloader. Have you tried removing the battery for 3 seconds, and then replacing it? Then try to flash after that again. See if that works.
[Wing, P4350 General] Molokai:
Well, I do believe that the camera button has taken a bit of a beating. More than a year ago, when the phone started doing this, I disassembled it in the hopes of finding something to straighten out around where the camera button is. Now I can't quite remember what I found, so I guess I will have to open it again. I believe the switch was broken - possibly broken loose from the MB.

But yes, as far as I have been able to read, a combination of different buttons should be pressed, so I don't understand why I am getting the bootloader.

In any case, 10 seconds with no battery (and it was very very dead from being unused for more than a year!!), made no difference.

I will try to reflash it, but that was successful, and IPL and SPL were both updated.

I wonder if I could short or open the camera button to fix this. I never did like the camera buttons that are so easy to hit anyways...
[Wing, P4350 General] ace10134:
Wait, did flashing it work?? So is the phone in WinMo now? You said it was "Sucessful".
[Wing, P4350 General] Molokai:
Let me try to be unambiguous -

I was successful in loading the RUU_Signed ROM - the bootloader read it off my SD card, installed it - and in the process upgraded the IPL and SPL from 4.xx.xxxx to 5.xx.xxxx

HOWEVER - It still only goes into the bootloader when I cycle the phone. It does not boot the OS. so no go on WM.
[Wing, P4350 General] ace10134:
Ok. Well maybe Ivan will see this and have an idea what to do.
[Wing, P4350 General] Molokai:
A quick bit of additional information:

When I plug in the usb-charger, the phone automatically starts up and goes directly into the bootloader.

If I push and hold the power button, it shuts off, then comes on again after a few seconds.

If I unplug the charger, I can shut it off and it does not start up again automatically.

Molok
[Wing, P4350 General] Molokai:
The camera button is missing

I took the thing apart again - and now I remember - after some fatal kinetic energy poisioning (i.e. falling onto the floor), the microswitch for the camera button dislodged itself.

So there is, in fact, no camera button anymore.

Does anyone know if a "missing" microswitch would be equal to it always being pushed in? Perhaps a short here would allow the phone to boot normally?

Missing camera button:

In contrast, the comm button still in place:
[Wing, P4350 General] ace10134:
Idk. I honestly don't know.

Maybe Ivan knows??

[General Topics] Georgeous2008:
It is intruiging that Microsoft does not offer their mobile OS for sale. Today's flashing possibilities would make it perfectly possible to provide upgrades to WM, even if users had to pay for them. Ok, you always have the specific hardware driver issues but there could be solutions to that, if the possibilty to upgrade would exist at all ...

Imagine Microsoft were releasing payable upgrades to a higher OS version (e.g. WM 6.5) of their mobile OS, would you go for it or would you rather buy a new phone ? How much would you be ready to pay ? Do you think that OEMs would embrace such an approach ?
[General Topics] tvrtim:
Firstly all the phones are very sensative to changes, that is why you cannot install a rom designed for a different phone. MS would have to create a different update for every different phone, this is also evident with the windows update app build into windows. MS doesn't post updates because all the manufatures build the hardware and use the software in differnent ways.

Secondly why would you want to pay for an update when you can get an even better cooked rom for free?
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
Because if MS did start selling the O/S in a box like normal Windows, they would then be much stricter on sites like this as they would be protecting revenue. You would have only purchased windows 3.1 and not the upgrade to Win 2000 so you would not have a legal license to use Win 2000 - bye bye cooked roms!

Like you say though, I doubt very much we will be able to buy Windows mobile 7 from our local shop, too much bloat would be needed (imagine all the diferent drivers!) to make it multi-phone capable out of the box. This would all eat our valuable RAM very quickly!

As to the question though, I might pay but that would depend on price and features..... its a very open question.

I would if it was a real upgrade

imho then wm have not really got a real upgrade since wm5

NO, that's exactly what Steev24 discribed, when having 2 separate volume indicators the Call volume is being changed when pressing vol up/down instead of the System volume.

Try getting a "HTCVolumeControl.dll" from a Touch HD (Blackstone) I remember they had the configuration the opposite to that of TD2, but you might lose the single volume control option.

Ok I'm not trying to be an a$$ or anything, but I don't this thread is development related.

answer to your question: First you need to update to RC30 then to RC33 and then wait for the ota update 1.5 aka cupcake.

I at least answer your question, and just a heads up you will NEED to go from RC29 to RC30 then to RC33 before jumping to cupcake.

[G1 Android Development] Proxin:
Your version right now is...?

If you're still on RC29, update to RC30 by renaming the first update I linked to as "update.zip" and update to it.

If you're on RC30, do the same with the second link (RC33).

If you're on RC33, you don't have to wait for the Cupcake update, just use the third link I provided and it will update the G1 to Cupcake.
[G1 Android Development] krazyconejo:
He will never get the ota if still on RC29 so he need to get to RC33 first so he can get the ota.

Hi, I have a major problem with my G1, it will not boot up at all now.

To make a long story short. Every couple of days my phone would not wake up from sleep mode. I thought I was having the issue people were talking about here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=528191

So i reverted back to Jesusfreakes 1.5 firmware and it kept happening. So i moved all my apps back to the phone and in fact removed all widgets and really jsut kept a couple of apps.

Anyway this has still been ongoign, usually though i just have to take the batter out and put it back in and we';re in business.

Today though... it's another story. The phone will not start up at all.

I pressed the red button = nothing.

i pressed the red and home button = nothing

red button and camera = nada.

I plugged into the power, a light doesn't even come on the phone. I laeve the battery out or in same thing. I even took out the SD card....

I think the phone just died on me... Anything else you guys can recommend I do?
[G1 General] Proxin:
Take out the battery and hold the Power button for 10-20 seconds.

Plug in the power adapter (without the battery) and see if the LED turns on.

Put the battery back in and see if it turns on.

Does your computer recognize it at all when it's plugged in to USB?

That's about all I know, if you don't see the charging light after you reset it using the power+no battery suggestion, I'd think it would be a hardware problem.
