[XV6700, PPC-6700 ROM Development] miamicanes:
I'm trying to prepare my old 6700 to give to a friend, but can't get it reflashed to the stock sprint rom (APAC_SPCS_20600_300_11200_ship.exe, downloaded directly from Sprint). It appears the phone is stuck in the 1.00 bootloader (dark screen, says "SERIAL" until I connect the USB, then changes to "USB".

MTTY couldn't connect (no "USB" in menu), but nueTTY can. The problem HERE is that once I'm connected, I have no idea what to actually DO. Searching returns about a thousand results, and all the results I looked at either didn't resolve the problem and left it hanging, or involved PMs that solved the problem for THEM, but left no information of enduring value for anyone ELSE to read. I've seen dozens of postings saying "use MTTY to run the exit bootloader app", but no hint of what that app actually IS, or how to go about launching it.

So... with the phone tethered via USB, 1.00 bootloader active, and connected via nueTTY... what do I do next?

[General Questions and Answers] freewind29:
what about hard spl? have you done that?
[General Questions and Answers] domi007:
Without HardSPL it shouldn't even go until 2%.

Re-download your ROM, and also take out any SD and SIM cards before you start upgrading.

[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
Put ur phone into bootloader and tell me what it says.

Did you hardspl correctly? Your device does not boot normally?

Try this wiki page first and read up before going any further : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_UpgradeProblems

You may have to try the goldcold method if hardspl messed up ur elf, see this wiki page for a "how to" : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_GoldCard

You can also flash a rom from your sd once it is working, see here : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_SD_Card_Flashing

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robertosandros:
I'd just like to start off by saying its taken me a long and grueling week to figure out everything I needed to know just to get this rom booting on my hero. Hero is my first android phone and my first glimpse into phone modding overall, (XDA virgin xD) and it took me many hours of constantly searching and taking notes to understand how *most* things work within the operating system. With that I present this rom I ported from over at the magic forum which is based on nk02Mod 4.0.4. Original can be found here.

Alot of things dont work and thats why I'm posting this, I would like to see a group effort at achieving a fully functional vanilla android build on Hero. I still have plenty to learn and appreciate any type of input from any of the developers as to how to implement and make some modules of the hardware fully functional. Credits aswell to all those throughout this forum who have provided some sort of developer advice along the way, cause I can gaurantee that I probably read it at some point during this week.

Things I wish to know how to activate/make functional:

Bluetooth

Wi-fi

Automatic APN

Apps2SD (Some reason wont load them off the SD)

Camera

GPS?

If anyone knows how to fix any of these, please let me know ^^

Happy flashing and good luck! ^^

How exactly do you a port a rom for a different phone..i.e. stock android onto the hero.

Just change a few files around and swap the kernel over to make sure it boots on it and thats it ^^

Is there a program you need or you just need to rearrange some files?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] blackgin:
Since android was disponible, this community did a great job on creating theme for this platform. Although android is not defaultly skinnable, themers had to create custom updates for change icons and other graphical things.

On another side we saw many people involved in modifying google open source apps such as launcher, browser and so on.

Why don't we put the two sides together?

Consider that someone modifies, for example, launcher app to be allowet for changing icons. Themeing would be better and simpler. No compatibility problems because images would be loaded directly from the operating system, directly from the app to be skinned. Such as open home or such as every other app that is skinnable.

Don't you like the idea?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] theslam08:
You should contact the developer of the launcher. He will be able to make the modifications to allow for this (because yes, as of currently, its not really skinnable [at least to my knowledge]).

But yes, good idea.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] maxisma:
You wouldn't be able to change the status bar for example. .
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] digitallysick:
Maybe just personal opinion but only 2 or 3 of the themes look good at all, a lot of them look terrible!

While I admire the hardwork , I wish someone would make more black/dark themes. And nothing too over the top.

Kill off the "hero" look, Make the bottom pull tab transparent.

Enoch is about the only decent theme here.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] blackgin:
Cannot we modify source of each apk we want to theme?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] evilkorn:
Well because each app that google owns and we can't distribute, we can't even include a custom icon which would be modifying copyrighted contend.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mianosm:
I totally agree, and also don't create anything for the community to use.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] david1171:
Sine mianosm has seconded this, i will third it. Stupid themers can't create some iamges that look good. I mean it must not be hard at all since we have all of these ugly themes, so why doesn't someone make a good looking one for once. Can we get a good theme finally!!!!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] blackgin:
I don't think it is the right thread for commenting themes.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jubeh:
Here's the reason why; you're completely forgetting about variety. Asking devs to prepare a rom a certain way is roughly equivalent to ramming a particular theme down your way, but not everybody will like it. Whichever theme it is you like, there will be 30 more people here that find it either dull or tacky (let's face it, the Theme's subforum is full with examples of both), but hey, that's their taste. When we make builds, we like putting out a known base, in this case, the default Android look. Cyanogen resisted theming his builds because of this, and if he did add variations to visuals, they were very, very minimal, and very tactful. What comes to mind is the horrible (in my mind) bootscreen for tehseano's Hero theme. Though the screen was nice, my phone is my phone, not advertisment space, so having "a theme by tehseano & Moonspoon" in there, even if it was only during boot, I felt was horribly inappropriate and tacky. Or there's the horrible rom King-something-or-other made with the stupid bootscreen. Many people don't agree, and that's great, because there's variety and diversity, and that's where themers come in.

You're asking for a reduction of choice, but choice tends to be a personal issue. Whatever it is you like, I assure you, there's going to be plenty of people that don't like it.

Let devs do instead what we do, develop, and let themers do their job, and let people have the ability to make choices.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] DavidChill:
this is actually a really good idea, however people would definitely need to coordinate thoughts and idea's better, but on that sense it would provide a much closer knit community.

would be interesting to see what develops from this.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] evilkorn:
The simplest way is for the themer to include the png's when he creates the theme and have the end user repack and sign, or use better cut if they don't care about the app drawer icon.

when i press HOME and POWER together the g1 splash screen comes up but then it just restarts

before this the g1 worked fine UNTILL i flashed back to STOCKED ROM and tried ROOTING it again.

im at the step where u have to HARD SPL it.

PLEASE HELP ME i can only go onto bootloader mode (camera+power)

i need to know asap
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
Have you flashed the SPL?? If so some of the SPLs actually wipe out the phone so it's left "romless" Use an SD card reader to put a ROM on the then flash again....

But after reading your post again it seems like you cant get to recovery. If that's the case then the only thing that we can do is use fastboot to get the recovery img back. When you get to your SPL is it the Rainbow screen or is it androids skateboarding? If it's the Rainbow screen you may have hit a massive roadblock. If it's the skateboarding you're in luck. Now you do have to have ADB/Fastboot configured on your PC (Click Here to find out how)put a recovery image (named recovery.img) in the C:\[whatever you extracted the ADB stuff to]\tools and then using Command Prompt:

fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

What this does is erase your current recovery and then reloads your new recovery. If you continue to have issues you could always go back to stock, reroot and see if you're running into the same problems. (This part I think is easier) :D

I really hope developers who design apps for the iphone and android will also make stuff for our app store. I've seen many great things from the android market( while many are in my opinion useless ). For example, the emualtor they have for android and iphone run very smooth with sound and all. especially the android ones! Yes we have morphgear and a bunch of others that run smooth...as long as you keep the sound off. Most of the emulators out for winmo havent been updated in who knows how many years! Whats the point if you're playing an rpg game like chrono trigger for example if you have no sound. What apps are you guys hoping to see on the microsoft app store?
