[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fagerman:
Hi everyone. I just joined this forum and I am hoping to get some help from some wise jailbreaker out there..:)

I bought my G1 from T-Mobile a couple of weeks ago with the intent to jailbreak it and use it as a modem for my laptop. I finally got started on the project and I was stonewalled right from the get-go. Neither the original SD card in the phone nor my new 8GB SD card can be seen by either one of my computers. My desktop is running Windows XP Pro and my laptop is running Vista Home Premium. Neither one will see the SD card no matter what I do. The card does not show up in "My Computer" on either one of the systems, but shows up as "Drive J" in both of them under "Drive Mangement". But it says there is "No Media", so therefor nothing to format.

Since I can't even format the card, I am bogged down from the start. I am hoping someone out there can tell me what to do in order to jailbreak this phone, since that was the only reason I got it. I was perfectly happy with my HP6550 iPAQ otherwise...

Has anyone out there had the same problem?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol4413:
have u tried formatting you card into a fat32 filesystem?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefan.buddle:
Try formatting it via the phone

yeah you need to format it before it can be seen under "My Computer" just right click iy under disk management and format it using fat32
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshHart:
I know on the MyTouch and I think on the G1 also(not positive) you can go into settings, SDcard and phone storage, unmount sdcard, then format - and do it all on the phone right there.

....i had a request....i dunno hw many agree ...bt i still think sm oders wil also want 2 giv it a try......we had all types of ROM...m2d,titanium,pointech...etc....bt on our gene forum v neva had ny ROM with HTC Touch CUBE enabled......guys plz can v hv a ROM with HTC cube .....im sure oder guys lyk me will alos want 2 giv it a try........wat say....if it wont kill ur tym.........
[P3400 ROM Development] karan999:
Good idea.but it will interfere manilla as well as titanium.So if u want a bug free rom with touch cube enabled,only HTC HOME is the interface which can be used.we'll also have to add touchfloSL configuration which (i guess) will interfere with HTC SCROLL we are using in our roms.try the cabs.(with the cube folder in ur additional applications list.) specially with titanium enabled.its way too buggy.

But a good idea though.;)

Hi to all

Is posible put Windows Mobile 6.5 in a HTC Hero?

Thank you

I like HTC Hero, but not Android. :rolleyes:

hummmm

i have used wm since 2002

hero is my 1st andriod phone.....and i won't be going back(wards)

i have to say IMO andriod is the way forward.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commodoor:
What the ..... believe me android is much better than wm i have them both (xperia and hero) android is much faster it doesn't crash you don't have to reset the phone everyday. wm gets slower how longer you use it. wm6.5 is a little bit better then wm61 but still android rocks them both. they(wm users) try to imitate the hero UI.

Could i ask what you don't like about android.

Windows Mobile has more applications and also syncs with MS Outlook.

I use WM since 2003, I know him very well, Android OS none.

You what I advise: HTC Touch HD or HTC Hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoArg:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol4413:
have u tried formating the card to fat32?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crpercodani:
You could try a sd reader. When you pluggin the phone in did you make sure to pull down the notification bar and click the usb thing and hit "Mount"?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
Try going into settings, sdcard and storage and format the card that way. If not it sounds like a windows driver issue, you might want to try a card reader, or download and burn a live cd of linux something like ubuntu which will have no problem reading the android phone. You could also use hp as a card reader if it supports micro sdcards
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
You could just download the files you need through the internet on your phone also, I do all my flashing, downloading and modifing right on my g1, download something like linda or astro file manager from the market so that you can actually download the files
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fagerman:
Thanks guys.

pistol4413: That is what I am trying to do according to instructions. But without the card beeing seen by Windows, it is sort of hard to format it...:)

crpercodani: Thanks for the tip. I will try a separate card reader. And there was no need to hit "mount". It all happened automatically and the phone said the card was mounted. Well, not in those words but it said the card was connected. I tried to unmount and remount again. Didn't do anything.

gridlock32404: I tried that (formatting in the phone). It did nothing. I will try a separate reader. The HP doesn't support micro SD, only mini and standard.

And I can't believe it would be a Windows driver issue both in my XP Pro system and Vista Premium...?

Provided I get this solve first of course, I am also curious if you might have detailed, reliable instructions on how to go through the whole root thing and getting the phone rooted and setup to provide a wireless network for my laptop? Right now I am following instructions from Anthony Moreno on YouTube. He has a few instructional videos on there that seem to make sense. But if any of you know of some other source for instructions, please let me know. I'd appreciate any help I can get to make this a smooth project and not a major headache...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
There are many detailed posts and stickys, on this q and a there is a thread for the one click that is really good, it is written by david and is very good instructions
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
Thanks for the mention gridlock32404. I have a detailed guide in my sig for the one click method. Or if you search for root/hack g1 then there is a good guide that i used to root my phone back in the day. If you use my method and encounter any problems pm me because i will see that faster than a post in the thread:) also if you do it and go with the rom in the guide (latest cyanogen rom) it comes with a tether app to do exactly what want (at least i think it does)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
They are good instructions david and I think that it is warranted to get sticky since most of the new g1 users are using it, I would perfer them to do the old fashioned way so they learn more about what they are doing but the one click is bringing a lot of new users to rooting since it is less scary
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
I completely agree. People should root their phones the long way first but one click is good for people that know what they are doing
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
I got 2 guys that work at my local tmobile that asked me if next time I come pay my bill if I could root their phones for them so I might just give that one click a try. I got a ? For you on that regard, can I just pop my sdcard in there phones and set them up that way and when I flash the new rom I can put back in their card without any damge to mine when I put in back in my phone
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
As long as you power your phone down first i can't see any why your sdcard would get damaged.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
That's what I thought, so I guess I will do that tomorrow then or monday
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
You should tell them you will partition their sdcards and install the new spl, if they leave a mytouch on the table and look away lol.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
It's a mytouch and a g1. The g1 guy wants hero so I would set that all up for him. Why do you say that about the mytouch, it's gonna be my first go on that so I am unsure
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
The mytouch was a joke payment method. To do one click root on the mytouch make sure you put the 1.33.2005 spl on it, since any spl for the g1 (hard or eng) will brick it. Also you might want to get the amon_ra recovery image for the mytouch
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
Yeah I was planning to put the amon's recovery on their since they can't use the recovery console anyway, I was aware of the spl difference though so I was good on that, I did read up alittle on it

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] habib_his:
This ROM from what I can see is funtionally the most perfect one to date, although others have had brilliant efforts. BUT the appearance needs a bit of work, the TF3D is cropped top and bottom of the interface to accomodate the new (I think too big) windows buttons...

Well done dude, good ROM....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] oluwaponmile:
What about if you change the theme, I have read somewhere that changing the theme will make the display look better
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] habib_his:
I did try changing the theme but no luck the top and bottom of TF3D are still cropped...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] oluwaponmile:
Well, I don't think this build is ripe enough for daily usage. How is the HTC message, any improvement of speed?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hussain ali:
it works fine with messages.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Testing this right now, so far looking really good! Thank you for this release! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] grzegorz10:
efsane,

First its great to see another player in the game and well done this is a very nice ROM has taken care of a lot of the issues and you can see a lot of thought has gone into the make up of this. The only thing I ask is if on your next release we could have Footprints included as there is a acceptable workaround for this which works well.

Note: for those wishing to realign the manila one of the guys over at PPC Geeks has made this CAB, its not 100% but a big improvement.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Just noticed one small thing here, the Home hard key doesn't work. The End hard key takes me to the home tab but the Home hard key does nothing.

Not a big deal at all, just wanted to let you know :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] anomalos:
can fix it?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vua777:
the rom cooker PhamQuang said it is because the rom is for HTC Leo, he can fix but the rom will slow, just use the end key
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Svebu:
yes please european
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] happy_image:
Thanks a lot!

But why can not I use "My Location"? The "Location Setting" is disable!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tausifs:
NIce rom Buddy.

Nice rom based on new MW looks.

I have used and tested it and found it very stable, solid and surprisingly very fast & responsive.

Of course it has some bugs like the touch flo 3D screen needs a bit fine tuning from up and down to fit in the space properly, Clock refreshes by 1 hour and 1 minute, quick launch program closer & memory status bar is gone as it was overlapping the top right corner in the previous version.

Keyboard is fixed etc etc.

Needs some fixes and is ready to go.

Thanks for sharing.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] asci:
Hi mate,

what is the Footprint workaround???

Can you link it to me?

THX
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] grzegorz10:
Found a small item that needs to be looked at and corrected. In Photos and Videos when selecting a photo, two of the features on the menu curtain do not respond, Email the item and detailed Menu.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] grzegorz10:
The Footprints part works as it should , it is the link to the Camera that is the problem.

To get around this use the photos camera.

Once you have taken the picture select it and bring up the menu which should have listed save to Footprints.

Again once it is saved to Footprints the functions from that come up and are able to be filled in and used.

You will now find that it is Displayed on the Footprints Tab if it is available.

Hi anyone have the problem with adding new contacts ? Cause I tried a lot of times and couldn't change the name of the contact it stays "Unnamed". :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
I just tested this and yes I can confirm the same result with manila contacs. When I use Resco Contacts it addds the contact just fine.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] riri22:
The ROM is just fine, very fast and well optimized, thanks to the cook.

There is one thing thoug I don't seem to be able to fix:

The wheather doesn't show up in Manila home screen. When I click on the clock, it opens the wheather tab in Manila, but I would like it to show up permanently just below the clock time.

Anyone know how to fix that. Or maybe I'm the only one to experience this thing.

(I can't set my location in settings cause I use the phone without a sim card in it right now, just for organizing purposes.

Maybe this is why this function doesn't work. What do you think?)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] habib_his:
I had a similar issue with the weather but realised that you have to disable auto update and set your location and locale to the same area and it shows on the home screen. you do have to manually update the weather though...

My main issue is the volume ricker not working but bringing some new fangled MS options on the screen, any workarounds for this???
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] riri22:
Thanks mate, this did the trick!

In fact I already had auto update desactivated but I did not notice you could set a local city in the clock options.

Cheers!

:cool:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ZaxXx:
I must say that this ROM is nice. There is one big thing that really annoys me a lot - the WM6.5 UI. I mean it's really great I don't have to reach top corners to open/close apps, but this UI is unusable in some programs, for example in total commander (which I use every day for more than two years and I'll never leave it).

So I'm returning to old good 6.1 :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] andes83:
When you push volume up a list of settings appears as you said and then I click on the sound icon and there you can set the volume it's a bit of a turn down and it's buggy but it works .Anyhow nice ROM going to a whole new direction with thumb friendliness and is quick for a change.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tausifs:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Could you explain further as to what problems you were having? I've been running this Rom since it's release and have had no major or minor problems to mention. This Rom has performed exceptionally well for me.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] riri22:
I second that: I haven't encountered any problem with this ROM as far as I can remember.

But due to either 6.5 specificity or to this ROM itself, there is one function I don't seem to be able to use:

I would like to choose which folder from my email account (let's say hotmail for instance) I would like to receive messages from.

for example 'sent messages', 'junk-mail' etc.

But so far It only download messages from inbox folder, not the others. Before, I could go to tools/folders/ and then check which folders I wanted to be inclueded in the messages downloading but I can't find this function in this ROM.

Any idea anyone?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] andes83:
Maybe you could workaround the problem with somekind of a program almost all the bugs in this ROM I encountered there was a program that did the job for me I don't use that much email-ing and haven't searched for a program like this but I'm sure there is one .For the contacts and message issues I used Resco Contact Manager as someone in this thread sugested and now I can add,delete,edit and etc. contacts and messages so problem solved.Although this ROM does not perform quite good in benchmarking it's very usefull and quick for everyday useage I think I will stick with this for quite awhile. :)

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cameronm:
i've been running this rom for a few days and i'm very happy. I dont like/use touchflo, instead i use the titanium interface and i;m very happy

just a couple of minor niggles but well worth living with, the only major one being not being able to change the volumne with the buttons on the side

but this is the first usual version of the 37 build so props go to the cook

Look forward to seeing what the other cooks come up with :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] 4all:
Proven and tested, extremely unstable :( :(, errors in Access at Home, does not load the Touch flo and access to the keyboard in different windows has problems closing or opening, the resolution is not correct for the HTC Blackstone. As a curiosity or a base for other rom may be worth, but you have to debug and change a lot.
