hate to say it but id just pay the $100 for a refurbish or id look on craigslist or ebay for a replacement.
[Touch CDMA General] mulder0990:
All you need to do is solder those three solder points. make sure you are using flux so it flows well and keep it straight. I had an issue after I put the case back on and the button on the case not lining up with the switch. Make sure you try to power the phone on before you put the case back on. I would leave the digitizer plugged in just in case.
[Touch CDMA General] tstack77:
Using the simple diagram below, soldering the 1-2-4 points didn't make it work. I was able to mimic the button by bridging the 1or2or4 with the 3or5.

1___2

3_4_5

Not sure what else I can do at this point beyond putting in a small momentary button that makes one of these connections, it will make the device look incredibly ghetto though :rolleyes:
[Touch CDMA General] thoughtlesskyle:
it is possible when it broke off it took one of the solder pads with it, after you take the button off see if all the connection points are still silverish in color if any are tan unfortunately you will have to go through asurion, there is no way i know of restoring them after that point

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natalic:
I am unable to root my G1 at all. I can not get it to load any of the "root" files. It is a PVT board. Everytime I go to load the DREAIMG.nbh, it just does nothing.

Anyone got suggestions? I need to be able to flash the custom roms. It is a T-Mobile model. I have tried multiple SD cards already. I am getting a bit annoyed.

I do a lot of stuff with the Tilt and Android personally. This is seriously baffling me.

Thanks for any help.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexjzim:
try redownloading the img

are the sdcards class 6?

are u getting into bootloader mode correctly (camera + power)

what are you currently running?

more details
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
Try to use the guide in my sig. Its much quicker:)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary13579:
As said above, more details are needed.

Try redownloading the file, and copying it over to the SD card again. If you are using the USB cable that came with the Dream, be aware that every one I've seen does NOT have a ferrite bead on it. This causes problems and can corrupt the file.

If you know how, md5sum the file on your PC and after copying it.

Does any error come up in the bootloader when you try flashing it?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natalic:
K, I am using a DREA100

I did not use a usb cable (used a sd card reader)

I get "image not found" or something to that nature in the boot loader then it goes to strips.

I have dealt with HTC for a LONG time...I have been doing it since the Apache. I never could get this to work.

Yes I am using Class 6 cards. I do IT development and I need the speed.

I will try the suggested guide:).

[G1 General] Android0014:
Can someone please tell me what the biggest differences between these 2? both advantages and disadvantages.

I have ext4, but I do not know anything about it; I have it b/c it's newer than ext3 and everyone else is having it, lol.

thanks
[G1 General] AdrianK:
I upgraded from ext3 to ext4 a couple of weeks back and haven't had any issues. I believe you will get slightly better performance out of ext4, but I haven't noticed anything different. It's not like the set up from ext2 to ext3, which was a lot faster due to journaling.

Basically, it doesn't really make a difference, I'm sticking with ext4.
[G1 General] jad011:
Yeah i have ext4 but i dont see much difference from 3
[G1 General] lbcoder:
ext4 doesn't offer any advantage in this application. The dev's support it for the same reason YOU have selected it... because it is "newer". ext2 or ext3 may even be better since its (yes, I refer to them as the same thing since ext3 is just ext2+journal) been out for a lot longer and is extremely stable.
[G1 General] NeoBlade:
I've read that EXT4 supports delayed allocation/journalling so its not always writing to the SD card as often.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4

I'm still on EXT3 myself but am planning to play with swap and other goodies when I get some more free time.
[G1 General] beartard:
The makers of some Linux distributions (notably Fedora) will not let users format their boot partitions to ext4 on a fresh installation. There's a reason. They don't want a relatively new filesystem type in a production environment.

Those who use ext4 are not unlike the old Bugs Bunny cartoons where they're doing testing work in the bomb plant...with a hammer. ;)
[G1 General] Android0014:
lol I'm so proud of myself cuz I've been testing bomb for the last month and still breathing lol lol lolz
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Not correct.

In older versions of fedora, ext4 was not allowed in /boot because ext4 was not supported by GRUB -- the bootloader. Fedora 12 comes with a new version of GRUB that has been updated to support ext4.
[G1 General] The Reverend Gridlock:
now onto serious anwer

Extents are introduced to replace the traditional block mapping scheme used by ext2/3 filesystems. An extent is a range of contiguous physical blocks, improving large file performance and reducing fragmentation. A single extent in ext4 can map up to 128MB of contiguous space with a 4KB block size.[1] There can be 4 extents stored in the Inode. When there are more than 4 extents to a file, the rest of the extents are indexed in an Htree.

The ext4 filesystem allows for pre-allocation of on-disk space for a file. The current methodology for this on most file systems is to write the file full of 0s to reserve the space when the file is created. This method would no longer be required for ext4; instead, a new fallocate() system call was added to the Linux kernel for use by filesystems, including ext4 and XFS, that have this capability. The space allocated for files such as these would be guaranteed and would likely be contiguous. This has applications for media streaming and databases.

Delayed allocation

Ext4 uses a filesystem performance technique called allocate-on-flush, also known as delayed allocation. It consists of delaying block allocation until the data is going to be written to the disk, unlike some other file systems, which may allocate the necessary blocks before that step. This improves performance and reduces fragmentation by improving block allocation decisions based on the actual file size.

Ext4 uses checksums in the journal to improve reliability, since the journal is one of the most used files of the disk. This feature has a side benefit; it can safely avoid a disk I/O wait during the journaling process, improving performance slightly. The technique of journal checksumming was inspired by a research paper from the University of Wisconsin titled IRON File Systems (specifically, section 6, called "transaction checksums").[7]

[G1 General] cj_fiasco:
So i can run newer jacheroski on EXT3
[G1 General] AdrianK:
Yeah, ext3 is best supported, ext2 is slower due to lack of journalling and ext4 is newer but not supported by all ROMs.

[Touch HD General] BigE:
Greetings,

Sorry to start a new thread but I have been reading for weeks so many threads, and have been asking on relevant ones the questions, and it seems I am ignored.. Do here it is..

I used to have NRG rom with iGO8 from June 25th (PNA) and TTS voices installed. It was working great. But then arrived PhamQuang with his V57 and I moved to it. I did not change anything as far as iGO. I am deleting the 'save' folder so every time I install iGO it is starting from the beginning. my sys.txt has not changed either, so technically I have a known good working setup.

On V59 the iGO installation went smooth, and I could choose a TTS voice. then, after a soft reset (or maybe after installing a cab?) my iGO became mute. TTS voices were stopped working. A regular voice does work. V61 and V62 had the same problem. I have installed V63 and again, TTS was working right after V63 was installed, but then it stopped working after a while. I suspect it is a cab i am installing after...

Has anyone got the same? :(
[Touch HD General] arghness:
I would think it's due to lack of RAM. Does it work if you soft reset the phone (i.e. hold down the power button for a few seconds to turn it off) and load it straight away?

How about if you disable TF3D and just use the regular Windows today screen, then soft reset and try it?
[Touch HD General] stukka2006:
bige, arghness,

it is a ram problem!

i disabled touch3d, stopped all tasks, optimized with sktools to get the maximum memory and it worked again!!!!

i activated again touch3d and tts stopped working!

thanks!!!!

:D:D:D:D:D:D
[Touch HD General] BigE:
Testing RAM issues

Although I found it hard to believe, as the Touch HD has so much RAM, I have checked the RAM issue as proposed..

Turned TF3D off. Checked and found I have 113M free RAM (out of 188) without doing any soft reset. Tried to change to a TTS voice- did not work.

Made a soft reset. Checked fr free RAM (TF3D is still off) - 123M free RAM. TTS still does not work.

Just to give you a clue- I used to have a trinity (64M RAM phone), and with a very lean and mean ROM I was able to turn TTS on .

PNA devices have normally 128M RAM in total (the newer ones will have 256M) and TTS runs smooth with 128M devices. The touch HD has 188M RAM, and proven not to work with 123M free...

Installed SKTOOLS. Set it to 'maximum memory' , ran it with TF3D on - still no results. Turned TF3D off - IT WORKS !!!!!

Not that I get why, but at least there is a solution...

First of all, sorry for my English because it is made in google.

I would like to make an inquiry and I have my old HP iPAQ rw6815 ... and I will install a 6.1 rom windows mobile 5 because I did a lot of problems, and of course all are in English and I would like to translate to Spanish.

What happens is not as open that file type, type. Nb0. Nbl. NBF. etc ...

With that program could do? and where to start to translate?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] emaron:
is there a password software for BA wm6.5???

some members here said passwords are bugs in cooked roms and therefore do not work properly...

looking forward for replies...

thanks...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] cmstackar:
Yes the password has bugs in it in wm6.5, so it may work for a while, but eventually you will be unable to unlock your phone. I used organic lock for a while, but stopped once my BA stopped being my PDA and just became my phone.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] emaron:
i know password doesn't work...well, they worked once but i have to hard reset my BA to be unlocked...

so, any password software won't work on wm6.5?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] cmstackar:
I think password software will work, as long as it is not the built in one.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] emaron:
i think so too...

does anyone know a not built-in password software?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] jilaxzone:
hi,

you can try using S2U2 made by a_c. basically, it is a program that show you an iphone lock screen on your WM device, it comes with a password locked features, so you just configure it to enable locking once your device is being turned on

hope that helps you. fyi, I'm using it right now and so far its good and stable

It might suck if you have a lot of stuff installed but, I would suggest to make sure you copy anything you might need to your pc, and make sure you have all your contacts saved to your sim , and your pictures are saved in your sd card, and do a hard reset.

[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Sorry i have to laugh @ earpiece driver "just sounds funny" i'd go with you have a hardware problem, i have no idea what, if your on a contract flash back to stock and try and get a replacement, if not may be worth finding a HTC repair center in your area, not sure on cost so may be cheaper just to buy a new Excalibur on ebay.

[HTC Excalibur] SvB4EvA:
Very weird, this just happened to me today also. All calls are automatically on speaker phone, turning speaker phone on and off during the call shows like it is working, but does nothing. I am also using Kavana 6.1 :mad:
[HTC Excalibur] Eliphas:
Weird, it has to be an issue with ROMS because my phone has been doing so ever since Ookba's 3VO WM6.5 ROM. I installed Kavana and my earliece worked then I reflashed due to a hardware issue and now my speaker phone is permanently stuck on. It's not really a big deal it just sucks for privacy.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
I'd defo say has nothing to do with ROMs with 1000's on 1000's of people flashing and a small amount of people with issue generally user error, i'd put it down to hardware and since a flash only sits in nand and is rewriten on a flash the error would not be there after a re-flash bit like the peeps having wi-fi driver not loaded too.

From personal experience i've flashed every ROM here including working on a ROM release easily over 500 flashes and never had an issue touch wood :)

I tried plugging in the USB cable, wiggling it around, using active sync,and even poking a toothpick around the charger hole. Hmm... unless there's something else I'm not doing right. I'm using the most recent 3VO ROM. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :)
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
Try a hard reset
[HTC Excalibur] Frostmoon:
Hard Reset or flashing stock ROM doesn't help this situation. I figured out that was my problem. Just call up t-mobile and ask for a warranty exchange, That's what I did. Granted of course you don't have any water or body damage on your device. Make sure you flash the stock ROM onto your dash before you send it back to t-mobile.
[HTC Excalibur] SvB4EvA:
The only thing that worked for me was syncing the phone with my PC, ie. plugging the mini USB cable in. And that only worked once per reset. This wasnt gonna cut it for me because I was in the habit of soft resetting about 2-3 times per day (god damn memory leaks!). I cant remember for sure, but I had about 2-3 other Excaliburs laying around, I think I just swapped some parts and put together another phone with a different main board. Yea, thats what I did I think... Kinda sucks, but I dont think there is another way around this beside replacing hardware. :(
[HTC Excalibur] PuffyTacos:
I tried all of your suggestions but still am having no luck getting the speakerphone to turn off. :(

I even used XP to try ActiveSync 4.5

Sadly I bought the phone used so I doubt TMo would do anything about it. If the phone is less than a year old, would they even though I'm a second owner?

SvB4Eva, how complex was replacing the hardware? Was there a guide somewhere you followed?

Again, thanks everybody for your help!
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:

I had the same exact problem with my Dash. The speakerphone was always on and i couldnt do anything about it. Pluggin in the mini usb helped and eventually the problem just... vanished.

cp /sdcard/Camera.apk /system/app/Camera.apk
(or use mv is cp doesn't work)

thats how you reintsall system apps

here is the Camera.apk from 4.1.11.1 just remove the .zip extension
