[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyellow:
you see that SPL - 0.72 is from 0linex? Stock SE rom doesn't come with 0linex.

Really, you must have did hard-spl to your device... no way you could not have done it.... unless.... you've bought a refurbished x1 and they have only restored the stock rom for you, that's why you could update once..

Really, think again, think hard... we are here trying to hep you and based on the info you gave us, we can only see that the device been hard-spl -ed.

like i said earlier, download an official Rom, rename the nbh file to kovsimg.nbh and copy it to your microsd, power off your device, hold both volume down and power button at the sametime untill a tri-color screen pop's up, followed by a grey screen and follow instructions. link to official roms:

Ok...managed to upgrade my rom to R3 but i can't hardspl to ruusigned_072stockspl.

As you can see in the first picture the hardspl detects the image from within the phone (1.05.931.10) and the one that i want to install (0.72.stockspl). I go forward, the phone goes into 3 color mode and then i get the error 284 as seen in the second picture.

I changed the usb port but no luck.

i'm having the same problem as you are. I updated my phone to the R2A version around April. Now when I try to update my phone it doesn't detect my phone. i checked the boot loader screen and it also doesn't show the stock SPL. I don't know how can Sony Ericsson Update Service do this to our phones.

Did you do the sd card boot for the R3A version? I'm going to try this tonite and see if it works.

Yes, there's a post in this thread that points you to the link with stock windows mobile roms. I upgraded to R3 just using sd card. But the hardspl is very stubborn...i could not get it work.

[G1 Apps and Games] davidbessler:
I'm looking for an app that can compose and send an email with just a click from the home screen.

Ideally, it coule be set to ask for bits of variable information. So I could write an email template where the recipient is preset (or left as a variable), the subject is preset or can contain a variable as well, and most of the body is preset except for one variable. For example:

To: somericepient@somedomain.com

Subject: Make sure to buy [UserInputHere] today!

Message: You should buy this at [UserInputHere]'s market!

This would be incredibly useful for interacting with all sorts of bots like gmail (when combined with filters etc ...) or task.fm or rememberthe milk.

DG QuickCut is the closest (the customi shortcuts) but alas does not allow me to make templates or even set the subject or message body.

Can someone create this app?

Hey man....are you aware of this problem with the Hero where people are not recieving their text messages?

http://androidforums.com/htc-hero/8155-do-not-receive-100-my-texts-htc-hero.html

I don't personally have a Hero but my cousin does and he alerted me to this problem. It's nothing to do with your ROM, but it appears to be an OS issue as people are reporting it in different countries and on different networks. My cousin is running your 2.2 ROM and has this problem, but people running stock have reported it as well.

Would you be able to take a look into this and see if there's a simple fix for it that you might be able to sort out ahead of HTC looking into it? HTC must be aware of it by now but who knows how long it will take for them to fix it...

Hi everyone!

I'm new in this forum. I'm Jerry and I'm writing from Barcelona, Spain.

First of all, let me excuse my self in case this post isn't in the right section.

On september 19th I'm going to live at UK for a year, and I'm already searching a good phone plan for my HTC Magic (can be used with any company).

As I will stay there for a year, it would be complicated to have a 12 month contract with a pay montly plan. So I guess the best option for my case is to get a single SIM and a pay as you go plan.

My question is: if I get a pay as you go, can I use the huge applications that Magic has? Such as surfing, facebook, etc. This HTC is constantly transfering data so it would be great to pay an extra money for free surfing and all that stuff.

Hope you can help me, because I don't know if bring my Magic with me, or buy a phone more... simple.

Thanks in advance!

Jerry.

Hello,

Is it possible to use our favorite td2 as an external usb speaker for my office PC ?

Cause... I can't put some speakers here ;)..

Thanx
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Pete_S:
a) I doubt it, because to be recognised by windows it would need a new USB profile (USB Audio device, or whatever the exact name is) in addition to the mass storage, activesync and internet sharing profiles it already has. It would also need the hardware to accept a digital audio feed via USB.

b) Would you really want to listen to the weedy, tinny sound of the Topaz speaker for more than a minute or two?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] infoman68:
to pete :

a) perharps... but there is a software to use the td2 as a webcam (with a little soft in the td2 an other in the pc)... then... perharps, lol :)...

b) that's true !!! But... what's the badest... a shiny sound or... no sound at all ;)...

When someone call me at home, and put a vocal message on my answering machine, my phone provider send me a mail, with the message attached... So, if that's possible to use as a speaker, I'd ear my messages ;)...

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcorrea:
I am fairly new to rooting, but thanks to this great website and all your inputs I have learned so much over the past month.

I first rooted my G1 using the 1-click method which was great, but now my earpiece has blown I will be receiving a new handset next week. So I learned how to properly downgrade and install stock firmware for my old handset.

When I receive my new handset, I decided to take the plunge and root the traditional way for 2 reasons.. 1- to learn a different way and 2- its possible the security hole may be patched by then rendering the 1-click useless.

Anyway, after reading all the varying posts on how to downgrade/root/flash custom rom I am still left with a little confusion so hopefully someone can clear this up for me.

When actually rooting, I have seen methods to type various things in the telnet window, and another method to just rerun the .apk and select "protect root". What is the difference between these two methods? Do they both accomplish the same task of making a permanent root? One method actually said to download the JFreke rom to fix permissions to root, bo no other method mentioned that. Is that even necessary?

Also, I know that with Cyanogen Roms I do not really need to flash to "hard spl" if I decide to stay with cm roms, and cm recovery also allows the use of nandroid backup as well. The only other argument I have seen is that a hard spl would potentially allow someone to "unbrick" a bricked phone, but from everything I have read, most people have bricked trying to flash the hard spl.

If I am going to stay with cm roms, is there any real benefit to a hard spl other than increasing the brick chance? If I do upgrade the spl, am I correct that it would be done last, after a potential radio update (assuming my replacement handset does not come with the latest radio)?

Sorry for all the questions, and thanks in advance for your help.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fingerlickin:
This is the best guide I found.

I have done 4 phones using this method with only 2 minor differences.

1) I format the sd card using a microsd card reader instead of the phone.

2) when it says What To Do Now That You Have Root don't download any of the builds listed there, just download the latest cyan stable rom.

Oh and don't worry about swap or apps2sd partitions until after you root and verify that the rom is working with no problems, this will limit the number of variables in case you have troubles.

So do you install hard spl according to that guide or do you skip that and just install the cm rom?

After flashing the HardSPl, would there ever be a reason to revert back to the original g1 spl? For instance if I had to send a phone back to t-mo, would they know that I am using the hardspl if all I did was reload the dreaimg.rbh rc-29 downgrade, or does that also reflash the spl back to the original?

You shouldn't ever have to go back. T-mo would prolly never check it. Many people have sent there phones in with root access and different things installed. But if you do get paranoid and ever have to do it, just flash RC29 and it will put everything back to stock.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
I turned my phone in with root access and custom splash screen and they didn't say anything. You don't want to make it known that you have done anything to it, but they won't check. When they are sent in they just hook it up with jtag and reflash everything.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcorrea:
Ok thanks that is what I figured. I actually just unrooted my phone yesterday from cyanogens rom, but I never flashed the SPL (did the 1-click thing originally), but now that I am going to do the original method I wanted to be sure.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fingerlickin:
I work in an electronics repair company and I agree with supremeteam256 about sending your phone in rooted. Our techs don't check for tampering, they just plug it in and use the programs my department writes to test and reflash the devices. Of course our devices are much more complicated but the same NON-Communication between customer service and technicians still exist.

I think the biggest reason for this is because the techs just aren't interested in explaining the technical details to a customer service rep because all they ever get is "huh? wtf is a bootloader?"
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fingerlickin:

I'm not claiming that HTC or TMobile will not check or notice that you have rooted your phone. Just illustrating that the repair techs don't want to talk to customer service anymore than you do and would rather just fix the phone and move on to the next one.

Hey everyone, I am sorry that I am resurrecting this thread but I have one more question.

The guide linked only says to flash the hard spl then flash the rom I want. But going from RC29 to the latest cm rom would require a radio flash as well right? So do I flash the hard spl first, then the latest radio and then finally cm's rom or does the order really even matter?

Thanks, and I promise this should be my last question about this :o

mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd

rm -rf /system/sd/app*

rm -rf /system/sd/dalv*
