press the top two buttons in together and keep them pressed ,then reset with the stylus at the same time. You will get a tri coloured screen (Bootloader mode)with your ipl and spl on it and it will say serial at the bottom. If it says spl x.xx olipro then flash any hermes rom to it, if it doesnt then find a rom from the manufacturer of the hermes i.e. if its a o2 trion get an o2 trion rom. When you have the rom downloaded simply connect it to the pc as you normally do and run the flash program. Dont worry about the parts of the rom flash where it says have you an active sync connection, just tick the box that you have and carry on with the flash do that and your phone will be working again, hopefully

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 613BulletProof:
hi,

i have a 32B my touch 3g.

im planning on rooting it using this guide.

http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Rooting

have a couple of questions, do i have to delete everything off my SD card?

can this mess up my phone permanently if done wrong?

now questions about roms.

i know theirs several different ones.

i dont really care about the looks, i just want the ROM that makes your mytouch a lot quicker, ive heard its possible to make it faster.

just wondering which ROM that would be and how would i go about installing it?

i just want a clean, quick, stable rom. its not that bad right now, but a little quicker wouldnt hurt.

i also heard some roms have internet issues / bluetooth and that stuff
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] MurderDeathKill:
Looks like you and me are in the same boat. I've already rooted my MT3G and have loaded Qtecks Hero rom on it. It's nice don't get me wrong, and I feel like one of the lucky ones being that I don't have any strange issues with my phone. The only thing that drives me nuts is every task takes about a 2 second load time.

Also, I find it rather poor to release a rom and call it working and stable when people are still getting blurry screens, dropped sms, no mms, Lost GPS and so forth. To me, that doesnt sound ready.

Im really thinking about load the original cupcake and saying good riddens until something thats actually stable come out!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tq745:
i don't think any of the hero developers have called their roms stable. the only stable rom right now is cyan's rom.

another method of rooting your device is the one click method. it's straight forward and easy to follow. check out theunlockr.com for more info.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 613BulletProof:
so as of right now there are no stable roms for the mytouch?
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] moe.heinous:
I love 6.5 v21 as far as the speed and stability. However, the keyboards on 6.1 v14 are much better for me. Also, the lack of Transcriber is a deal breaker.

I did find cabs for the better keybd, but I locked my machine when i tried to install them.

Can someone tell me what registry keys i need to modify so I can use 6.5?

thanks!
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] saurshaz:
go to microsoft

You can download transcriber from microsoft site and install it onto ur PPC .... then change the input method preferred to transcriber.. although this does not work flawlessly on th ROMs .. it still gives u an option
[G1 General] eosrider:
Now i am sure that people have thought about this in the past but i searched the interwebs and have not seen anyone actually post this. I decided to spend my lunch time putting my G1 under the knife.

First of all. I am not responsible in any way for whatever YOU (the end user) does to your phone. Im not just a ass hat wanting people to break they're phones, but do this at your own risk.

now.

anyone that has ever been unable to hear the conversation normally (with your phone at your ear no speakerphone) might be able to benefit from this.

If you remember the 2g iphone trick of making the speakers louder this is essentially the same thing. get yourself a paper clip and bend one of the sides out so you have a poker. clean all the ear gungle out. then from the far left of the ear piece poke GENTLY through then sorta dig it out so you dont leave pieces behind. in the center of the hole you will run into a more solid piece leave it alone when you hit it. then you can repeat from just a touch left of the LED.

I did this and went outside my building (i work right next to a major freeway) for the first time i was able to hear my call VERY clearly. I was very excited.

okay now for the second tip.

This one is pretty useful for people who put the phone to their left ear. reason being is (at least for me) my finger always finds a way to leave prints on the camera cover.

simple fix.

take the battery cover off and use the rounded part of the paper clip you may have used earlier. get a square of Toilet paper and put a little force onto the camera cover from the INSIDE OF THE BATTERY COVER.

You will notice on the front that you can use your fingernail to peel the piece off.

The pictures i will add are at 1mp so most people can see them in full size on their monitors without having to zoom out/in or whatever.

once again. use at your own risk. let me know what you think!

The first two are with the cover on, and the second two are without.
[G1 General] crpercodani:
Uhm I think you posted the wrong pictures or something because that is def. not a G1 haha.
[G1 General] eosrider:
Actually, those are pictures demonstrating the difference with the camera cover on and off
[G1 General] aron4588:
not really worth it unless you got extra time and my lunch time is not... juss plain but yea nicce lil mods might try them out and post my results

umm nice system btw
[G1 General] crpercodani:
Ohhh I see. I didn't read in your post that you were adding pictures to compare the difference, but geez it sure does make one. What about protection though? won't the lens be exposed?
[G1 General] eosrider:
the camera eye has another cover over it. ive been using it this way now for a few days. doesnt seem all that more exposed.
[G1 General] Fingerlickin:
That extra cover on the camera broke on my G1 a couple months ago. There's only one problem with this idea. If the back cover gets scratched it's pretty cheap to replace, if the camera lens gets scratched it's not so cheap.
[G1 General] Fingerlickin:
Nice Fireberds btw. Looks like you keep your equipment clean. I have a similar playground here at the office :)

Hi,

Juts soft rebooted my Tytn, and its not stuck on the initial boot screen (the four coloured bars).

Done a hard reset back to fatory defaults and still won boot past initial coloured screen. It says:

HERM300

IPL-1.04

SPL-1.40.Olipro

Serial

Any ideas?

Thanks,

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] scousemartin:
have your tried taking the battery out and leaving it out for ten minutes then putting it back in and switching it on? IF you are still on the triolour bootscreen then you will just have to run a flash of a rom on it. That should get the phone back up and running
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ultramag69:
If you get it running though, do yourself a favour and install Hard SPL V7... You're running an older, less safe version. More chance for stuff ups...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Anthony_99:
Very odd

Hmm, well leaving the battery out for for a couple of minutes then rebooting makes it boot properley, but if I soft reset then it gets stuck at the coloured bars again unitl the battery is removed for a couple of minutes again.

I guess I will have to try flashing it later, but at least I have the phone running again so I can use it today, wil try flashing later.

thanks.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Anthony_99:
Didnt last long

got stuck at the coloured sceen again no matter how long I left the battery out now, just flashed the ROM again (schaps, same as I have been using for a year OK), and still same problem. I cant update the SPL as even on the odd occasion I got it to boot, installing spl2.10 requires a reboot at which point it got stuck again, and I couldnt get it to boot before the SPL loader program on the PC timed out with a comms error.

I am wondering if it is an intermittent hardware fault like a stuck button, would that cause it to get stuck on the first screen?

Ants
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Anthony_99:
bugger!

just opened it up and a switch fell out, its the one from the comms button (just below the power button on the right hand side). Not sure my SMD soldering is that good to get it soldered back on again, must have hit it somehow or a previous drop and its just finally worked loose etc.

Although I find it har to believe that a switch would cause boot to fail, surley it just doesnt make a connection if its missing, just as if it wasnt depressed?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MarkoDiMarko:
Hello to everyone.

Please forgive me if you think that I'm not posting in the correct forum, but I think that posting in the general Sapphire forum would be more irrelevant.

I'm using Cyanogen's 4.0.4 ROM and I'm totally satisfied with it. I think he (with the help of many others) has done a great job, keep up the good work guys!

My only problem (and believe me it's a big problem for me) is that the HTC keyboard supports only the english language. I have tried many ROMs and some of them had other language support, but unfortunatelly I had others problems and had to drop them. So here I am with Cyanogen's ROM which I would be totally satisfied with, if I could use the HTC keyboard with my native language (Greek for my case).

I have tried everything, uninstalling and reinstalling HTC_IME.apk, HTC_IME.odex and libt9.so from JACxHERO's ROM that works with my language, with no success at all.

I assume that a lot of people like the HTC keyboard like me and would like to use it with their native language. So, if there is a solution and anyone knows it, I would really appreciate it to know.

Thank you in advance and again, keep up the good work!!!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] screamsoflust:
instead of installing other languages i wanna remove the damned chinese language in my htc magic..please help!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crubbish:
you can try the following

I'm no expert guys but here is the command that activates Russian language in HTC.ime. It worked fine for me and English stays as a second language for the keyboard.

cd to the Tools folder within SDK and run the following command:

adb shell "echo ru > /data/property/persist.sys.language"
[code]
Then reboot the device.
Obviously you need to replace "ru" in above code by your respective language short name. Like "gr" would stand for Greek language I would imagine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mlav:
rubbish: thanks for your suggestion... but it doesn't work for me as far as HTC Keyboard (HTC_IME.apk) is concerned. I have French Canadian set on my device (i.e. fr set in persist.sys.language and CA set in persist.sys.country) and still, only English appears in the HTC Keyboard configuration panel.

I took a look at this page on the Android localisation topic, but find nothing really helpful to solve the problem with HTC Keyboard: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/web/localizing-android-apps-draft?version=10

As far as I know, HTC_IME.apk was intended to be used on Hero only, not on Magic. Having used Hero ROM for a couple of weeks' I can confirm that you can select any available languages for use with the HTC keyboard. So is there anything else missing (apart from libt9.so) from the Hero system stack in order to have the complete languages list on Magic?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nk02:
edit

.........
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :No-Frost::
so no news =( ???
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crubbish:
All right, let's try the following method although it's going to be trial and error, you'll see why. It will only work for HTC-based firmware I think (Hero ROMs should be OK). I'm on the different firmware at the moment (SPFrance) and it worked fine adding Russian as 2nd language to the HTC keyboard. The method described in my previous post was really for the system locale (although it was adding 2nd keyboard input as well just fine).

You'll need to pull a system file called "com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml" from the device. To do that enter the following command from within tools folder of your SDK folder:

adb pull /data/data/com.htc.android.htcime/shared_prefs/com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml
[code]
This is one command, just copy and paste it. You should get the above mentioned file copied to your Tools folder. Then you need to edit it with Notepad. Now comes trial and error method. To add Russian you need to do the following:
Change: <string name="keyboard_language">0</string>
for: <string name="keyboard_language">6</string>
So it's a simple change of 1 figure (0 -> 6). The thing is I don't know (and couldn't find info) what figures are relevant for other languages. But there's no risk in trying, you can always push the original .xml file back to device. Try from 1 to 9 (missing 6 obviously unless you want Russian) and see how it turns out.
To push file back to device:
[code]
adb push com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml /data/data/com.htc.android.htcime/shared_prefs/com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml
[code]
This is again a single command. Reboot the device afterwards.
Good luck!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rquattro:

***EDITED***
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crubbish:
Yes, you should get it. I got Russian predictive and there's no reason for Spanish to work differently.

To all. If you succeeded with above method please post what number worked for your language. For now we know that 6 adds Russian and 5 - Portuguese.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crubbish:
You must be a lucky person to get it on first try nop56773! I'm glad it worked for you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
To get English environment with (in my case) Czech prediction keyboard on 32A with CyanogenMod 4.0.4, I just set the phone locale to Czech (important step, doesn't work without it) using standard phone locale settings - which switches both the environment and predictive language to Czech (note that the keyboard preferences still only show English as the only visible language choice, but it's not actually selected - the list just doesn't show the other choices) then I change the /data/property/persist.sys.country file to contain CZ (that should really be capitalized) and reboot phone. Works like charm (tested on multiple wipes). You can of course do the exact opposite, too - have the keyboard language set to English and UI language to your preffered language.

Basically - the persist.sys.country file controls your regional locale (including keyboard prediction) - in uppercase characters - and the persist.sys.language file contains your UI messages locale - in lowercase characters.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :No-Frost::
Tryied it out with no succes... Everytime I change the number I got english again =(...

My phone is 100% english xD...

There should be another way to put it in spanish I think right????

[General Questions and Answers] ingerasu:
most of skins from xda-devs thread are not from your device resolution. Try to search zubnik's skin from that thread, i think that he's using omnia. Maybe u can PM him/her to post skin that u like.

if u have zip file, u have to extract it and send the files to windows folder.

if u have m2dct file format, u need Manilla2d Customizer (read the 1st post from that thread;)). Or u can also rename .m2dct into .rar, extract it and send the files manually to windows folder

.cab file format? it would be easier coz u only need to run it from your device

good luck :)
