Is the only way to do this with the cdma developer program

I just bought a HTC pro but its in a negative file

I have a HTC 6800 that i broke the screen on with all clean numbes like the esn can i somehow swap them with out paying another 200 dollar to buy the full program
[Touch Diamond CDMA] psyko_chewbacca:
Negative list? My guess is what your trying to say is that the phone is blacklisted because it has been stolen or lost and that the legetimate owner called the phone company to put the ESN on a blacklist. This is highly illegal and immoral as you are trying to steal the property of someone else... Even if you paid good money for it.

In that case I don't think anyone here on XDA will be helping you. It's not because we are unlocking phones here and by this way we violate the terms of the limited warranty of mobile phone opperators that we all steal and pirate stuff. We merely enhance the functionnality of our phones. If you found the phone or stole it you should bring it back to it's belonging carrier in a store.

Anyway if this is not the case you should know that even if both the phones are your legal property(Then I apologize for the little morality speech... Please ignore it.), this is still an illegal procedure you are undertaking. I really doubt you will find active help in this thread, moreover this has been discussed many times in other threads. Have you search?

Good luck anyway in getting a working phone!
[Touch Diamond CDMA] mr bill 28:
Its not stolen the guy that had it before still owes money on the bill so the phone cant be used

bell knows I have the phone

I have done a lot of searching and I have found a lot out

Just wondering if there was a way around the program for $200 that will help me fix the phone

Ide like to get it working .......... worst part is that i know it can be done Just need a bit of direction

O well.............

I hope I'm not going to get into trouble for linking off site, this isn't the place for this topic as psyko_chewbacca said. I think you might be interested in this thread though http://www.mobile-files.com/forum/showthread.php?t=87425&page=20 the solution(post 192?) is for a touch diamond, might work on your phone. A forum search on that site might turn up even more. That site is more appropriate for topics such as this though.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
I just broke my HTC hero while flashing and it does not load any bootloader any more, just a black screen... I can charge my battery though (lol) and the LED is working...

Now, when I boot it with pressing VOL_UP and the ON key it vibrates three times, I assume this is the flash mode for .nbh full images...

Does anyone have any suggestions or so? Also, I dont have an .nbh file for it

HALP :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nuumuun:
please check if you can get into fastboot mode by holding the back button and powering on
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
no, that _is_ the problem, it does not boot any mode...

only thing it does is vibrating three times and led works, when I boot it with volume-up + ON key :(

I would send it to HTC but that will take more than 3 weeks to come back :/

EDIT:

a friend told me that the G1 has a flash mode with full-images (like dreaimg.nbh) when booting it with pressing camera + ON

so I was looking for such a thing on my hero, and I found out that volume up + ON boots some kind of thing, hopefully the full-image flash mode

my problem with that is that I am not sure what it is an also I dont have an .nbh file for the hero ...

still I guess the thread might be interesting if we solve the problem because then anyone who bricks it can fix it :) (except they go showering with it)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nuumuun:
i'm sorry but i can't help you with the problem then :(

i guess you'll have to hope for someone more knowledgeable to come around ...

good luck in any case and i'll keep an eye on this ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
I hope someone can help or provide an .nbh file or anything helpful for this problem :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] felikz:
maybe this thread can help you:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
felikz: this looks good but I still haven't found an nbh file for my phone, and also I dont really know how to flash it ... so basically I just need help :/ and suggestions, the HTCFlasher looks really good but I dont have an nbh full-image for my phone, and since the hero is pretty young, there isnt that much stuff online already :(
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
Is there a way that HTC uses to install the firmware on the phones for the first time ?

Some hardcoded kind of stuff, a chip for flashing or something like that?

I think I screwed my bootloader and this is the reason why nothing works, so I would need to install some kind of bootloader..

EDIT: my computer does not recognize the phone via USB (I thought this information might be useful)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
OK... So I managed to extract the official RUU from HTC in order to get the .nbh file for my phone

and voila, another method that just won't work, new HTC hero RUU uses the update.zip format for updating your hero..

So what to do if only the ARM9 mode is working? yes indeed, my phone can even vibrate 3 times and it also includes a working green LED.. YAY :mad:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pof:
your phone is probably stuck in OEMSBL mode, if its security unlocked there's still some chance you can bring it back to life. Search for 'frankenkaiser' method on kaiser's forum, you have a similar problem but with a different device.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
thanks for your reply... I dunno if its security unlocked..

it is not a branded phone, so if you meant that ..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
Ok... so I took a look at this, the frankenkaiser method seems to work with devices that show up when connecting them to USB.. my device does not show.. I would need some kind of bootup mode that isnt ****ed up by me :D as I said, only thing that seems to work is the ARM9 mode and I dont know wheter this is helpful..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] felikz:
if really nothing works on the phone and the pc does not recognize it via usb, then maybe the last method is to send it to htc.. i cannot imagine that you're able to connect with the normal usb cable
[Hero, G2 Touch General] xTuX:
Ok thank you guys for helping, I will see what HTC will do, the phone is brandnew so maybe they will give me a new phone :/

again, thanks for your time and for your help
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Phillis:
I currently have the same problem as you.

I get 3 vibrations when I press power and Hold vol down.

I was able to get it to boot by holding VOL DOWN + BACK button after powering it up.

Hope it helps

thread back from the dead.

Have there been any fixes for this problem? been searching all morning and all i found was this old thread. I have a telus hero on 1.5, not rooted or anything, about 8 months old. same problem, power on, 3 vibrations and led works. if i boot in fast boot by holding the back button while powering on i get SOMETHING but when i tell it to reset handset it vibrates three times then nothing.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pulser_g2:
You'd usually be better to make a new thread, but can you flash or fastboot anything?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] gtbr:
I have the same problem,

Up + Power vibrates 3 times and shows the green led,

with other combinations the phone shows nothing but if i connect with usb and use:

fastboot devices i get 123456789012 fastboot

does anyone knows how to help?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pulser_g2:
Try the heroimg.zip method (google it)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] gtbr:
i have extracted the rom.zip from a oficial ruu and tried the following:

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

but it gave me the following error:

writing 'zip'... INFOadopting the signature contained in this image...

INFOsignature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

i've also tried renaming the rom.zip to heroimg.zip, put it in the sd card a start the phone with volume down + power, but the phone does nothing.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ljnick19:
I tried to install Blur Hero 1.5.7, it did the boot loop thing, so I pulled the battery and tried again. After that did not work, I attempted to wipe and revert back to what I had using nandroid. No luck. So I got into the console and tried to start fresh by re-partitioning the sd in the hopes that I could reinstall and try again.

NOTE: Reason for the repartition step was because I was not able to access my sd through the phone. I tried (which has worked for me in the past) to hook it up through a camera of mine. Upon doing so it said that I needed to format, so I did.

Now I am in a world of hurt. My laptop will not recognize my device, it is still on the HERO boot loop, and when I try and connect using the cam, it says that it is in a RAW state instead of a FAT32.

IF any of this sounds familiar to anyone, please help.

Thanks for your time,

LJ
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexjzim:
this has happened to me.

my problem was that after the boot loop, the ext3 (at the time) partition became mount, while the fat32 became mount-1. it normally, and should be the other way around.

you probably have to delete your ext, and then reformat your fat32 using gparted (ubuntu). then you can make another ext partition, and they will mount in the correct order.

also, when/if you get the mounts working, install one if cyanogens (god bless him) roms to make sure everything works. then you can try for hero again

a second time something similar happened to me, and it *bricked* my ability to create an ext partition on that sd card, tried multiple ways.

good luck :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
Have you tried to go into recovery and parted and format your card that way?

I see a lot of great themes for Stericson lock screen, but they are all tied to a full theme.

I'd really like if you theme creators could release the lock screen theme seperately, for those people like me, who would like to keep the standard theme for the rest of the phone (or combine it with another theme).
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] zimphishmonger:
Follow Stericson's twitter and you will get the latest releases.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] DarkFoxDK:
... with the stock theme.

But what if I'd like the lock screen theme from gChrome?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] insanedrunk:
pull the files fromthe lockscreen in the framework-res.apk /res/drawable/ inside there will be files named zzlockdock zzlockdock bottom.png etc. just take those files and put them in the same place as the one you want to use.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] DarkFoxDK:
That might work as a temporary solution...
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jonnybueno:
Its actually a permanent solution.... get the signing utility set up, and you can use any themed lockscreen. Seems better to do it yourself rather than relying on others to customize your phone
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] DarkFoxDK:
What is that supposed to mean?

Going by that statement, I should make my own theme... and trust me... you don't want to see that...

And by the way, no offence, but I really do have better things to spend my time on, than messing about with this, trying to get this thing I don't know enough about, to work.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] david1171:
take the images at the end of framework-res.apk with zz in front of them

drop them into a 7-zip archive for the most recent update of stercisons lockscreen that you want to use

sign the file

flash the file

or do this on a phone with the stock look of stericson's lockscreen

take the framework-res.apk from gchrome, put it on the root of your sdcard, boot into recovery

mount sdcard
mount system
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
reboot

it may not work but you can try it, also it will have the 700+ .pngs from gchrome so the lockscreen isn't the only thing that will look like gchrome.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] bkmo:
The lockscreen has all the framework graphics in it. So to change the lockscreen graphics alone you will have to add them to your current themed framework-res.apk. So you will at least have to learn how to theme the lockscreen by yourself.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jonnybueno:
You only have to replace about 20 images, there are guides all over the place. If you need help you can pm me.

Seriously though, I've owned a computer for almost 10 months now. I have no college education, and the last grade I completed was the 10th grade. No offense, but if you have the time to post on xda, then you have the time to change your lockscreen (about 5 min).

Willing to try and work the lockscreen

hi there. i hope im not late to the party but i would like to try this out as i really like the stericson lockscreen but only want that segment of the full theme.

with the instructions that you gave the guy, i am willing to put time in for it to work, and would like to try it, but i am new to this scene of extracting for theming. If so, can you clarify the instructions and where i would find the theme files for them, where to push them and what is meant by 'signing' the file. Sorry for all these questions.

and i can use this on my hero rom on my g1 i hope?

for the guy willing to hepl from pm, if you could pm me that would be absolutely fantastic, any help in getting this to work will be very muc appreciated.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] david1171:
from what i have heard this only works on AOSP roms, and more specifically it is made for cyanogen's roms.

here is where you need to go to find out about signing files. this whole thread also has some good info not just that post i linked you to.

the images that you want that control are in framework-res.apk/res/drawable. they are at the very end of it and all of the files that are directly related to the lockscreen start with zz. takes those files and drop them into a stock version of the framework-res.apk/res/drawable, and sign, then flash.

here is the link to the latest lockscreen stericson released. it is just for cm4.1.11.1.

Thanks for the tips, guys. Stericson's signing tool is pretty awesome

and has helped me in editing the Hero lockscreen before. I'll just put the

tool to good use on the SterLock v5a and see where that takes me, now

that I'm back to Cyan 4.11.1.

[General Questions and Answers] miron721:
I'm looking to start developing for windows mobile phones. Not like for Microsoft or anything, but simple little things. I've searched around a little, but had no success so far. I have some experience programming in basic, c++, and java. Problem is, I don't know where to start. What do I need? What do I need to compile? Is it the same as in windows, or is it a different compiler, or just different flags? What language should I start in? How do I access the hardware of the phone?

Ideally, my first project would be a "dead-man's handle" type of thing. I ride my motorcycle a lot, and I've already been hit. If it wasn't in a public place, I might not have gotten help. So what I want to make is a program that uses the accelerometer in the phone to detect stillness. If I'm still for +30 seconds, and the phone is at an angle that's different than when it's in my pocket, it sounds an alert and vibrates, asking for a response to see if I'm alive. If I do nothing for another 20 seconds or so, it sends a text to a preset number (probably a friend) with my gps location. They can then drive down there/call the cops/call me, whatever.

Feel free to take my idea completely, just let me use it if you make it.

EDIT: Wow, I cannot believe I didn't search for "windows mobile sdk". No need for this thread anymore. Unless you want to make that program, that is...

Hi,

I am having problem with the syncing of my contacts photos on Facebook in Manilla.

I have just installed Dutty's Leo R5 WWE Rom and I don't think this worked in the R4 either. The matching contacts come up when first logged into facebook, and the pictures appear alongisde the names when you match the contacts up, but my phone does not update its photos. They all seem to have the standard grey head and a small facebook icon in the bottom right.

If I remember correctly, it used to ask whether you want to update photos and birthdays, but it doesn't even give you the option now. Is there a solution, maybe something in the registry which can swicth this sync feature on.

The manila version is 2.5.19192828.0

Thanks

Jason
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
I haven't tried R5 yet (most likely tonight) but the facebook contacts on R4 work flawlessly for me. Everytime I update this it also changes the images it they have done so on facebook.

Have you tried removing the link or association which each contact and then linking them again to see if that works?
