[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] shwetabh:
Thanks a lot Ted...!

Thanks a lot Ted. You are my "knight in shining armor". Atleast I have some hope, I think :o

You just said "Flash a stock rom off your sd card.". Can you please let me know or direct me to a post that tells how to flash rom off the sd card? I am however searching for the best fit for my set.

Also, I think i need to search for an appropriate ROM for my fuze this time.

Thanks again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] streetlight22:
Um yeah...you might've just bricked your phone. Your best bet is trying to reflash your phone with an OEM ROM via a MicroSD card, then going to one of the cooked GSM roms on this forum.

Look at the stickied threads in this forum for the procedure and links to an ATT rom.

If that doesn't work, you could try going to an ATT store and playing dumb...there's a small chance they'll replace it under warranty if it hasn't expired yet. If all else fails...you might be able to score a fuze from ebay on the cheap...I'm sure there's a lot of people upgrading to touch pro 2.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] shwetabh:
Thanks for your reply.

streetlight22 and Ted, Thanks for your reply. I will try this today. Keeping my fingers crossed :(. If this works, I would be happier than ever (not because I could save some bucks.. but because I love my fuze and can't see it dying).
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] shwetabh:
Every where the step says "renaming the ROM nbh file to RAPHIMG.nbh or something like that. I am wondering if I also need to rename the .nbh file to something before running the update.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Farmer Ted:
The rom image will be named ruu_signed.nbh (if it's a custom rom) or something longer if it's a stock rom. You should try a stock ATT rom image. Just rename it, stick it on the root of your sd card (must be FAT32), and see if you can go into bootloader. If you can't get into bootloader, you're screwed. Remember to hold volume down for several seconds after soft resetting. Press it down before soft resetting. If the tri-color screen doesn't appear, you're in trouble. It should appear briefly, then go grey with a message like 'loading image,' then it will tell you to push power. But if you flashed a diamond cdma rom, you may have totally screwed things up. Most people seem to recover from cdma touch pro roms, but if it's from a different device, you may be screwed.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] freakzone:
Hi, if the tri colour screen appears you can try flashing trough your PC, it should find new hardware (htc hot sync or similar), then there should be USB written in the lowest part, then you can flash watever you want from the PC in the manner you are used to.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] shwetabh:
It worked.. it worked.. my fuze is now up and running WM 6.1. Thanks to all...! Special thanks to Ted for his quick reply and the tip "Remember to hold volume down for several seconds after soft resetting. Press it down before soft resetting". This is what I was not trying inorder to connect fuze with my laptop. My set is back to normal, up and running cool...

Hi guys, sorry for stupid question.

I'm happy user of T-mobile MT3G in US and I'm planning trip to Greece. Will I be able to use it for data either with 3G or EDGE networks?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Taknarosh:
EDGE only.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jagooch:
I download the updater application - _ATT Tilt_RUU_Kaiser_CINGULAR_WWE_3.57.502.2_radio_sign_25.88.40.05_1.65.21.18_Ship.exe - from HTC's site, but when I double click on it, it immediately says "kaiser has encountered a problem and needs to close" . I got it to start ok in safe mode, but then ActiveSync doesn't work correctly so still I can't do the upgrade.

It does this regardless of whether the phone is connected or not.

Phone:

HTC 8925

WM 6 Professional

ActiveSync 4.5

HardSpl 3.29 installed.

Computer:

Windows XP SP3

Any ideas on how I can fix this?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Rudegar:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jagooch:
Got It

I did some more googling, and someone had the same problem which turned out to be the browser that they used to download the update files. I was skeptical, but they had downloaded it twice with firefox, and then downloaded it with Internet Explorer. They said it then worked, so I followed suite, downloading the WM 6.1 update with IE 8 instead of Firefox 3.5.

Guess what? It worked perfectly!

Funny thing is that now that I have the stock 6.1, I am looking at the custom 6.1 ROMS. I have a WM 6.5 ROM on my other Tilt, but it doesn't have good support for landscape mode, so I think I'll still with 6.1 since it does support it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmw407:
Can I do this from the terminal, and if so, what are the commands I need to use?

Right now I have set up Ext3 with 1GB. I realized that it's just too big and I want to lower it to 500mb instead. That way I can add a linux-swap partition and still have plenty of space in the FAT32. But, I'm unsure if I can do this through terminal or if I have to go through partition manager.

Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robkoehler:
you can do it in your console from recovery using parted and the resize command.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmw407:
what is the actual command line(s)?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robkoehler:
take a look at this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=534714

just drop to console and ignore adb commands. there are some resize commands in the thread if you look. the OP will show you how to get into it and other great info.

enjoy!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nonchalant_joe:
last time i tried the resize command on an ext3 partition it said parted couldn't do it. (in the recovery console) so you will either have to rm 2 it and mkpartfs primary ext2 [start] [end]

or mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 it then you can do the resize command.

which would be resize 2 [new start] [new end]

I thought this could be done in Advanced Config, and I did disable the Shutdown animation from there, but couldn't figure out how to disable the startup animation.

Is there a better way than replacing the file with something else? Empty string?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] electron73:
I used DiamondTweak, worked like a charm.

I still have the problem that my screen goes blank after only 30 sec of inactivity. Do you have that problem too?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
Hmm, will check that out.. I know there was some tool floating about which seemed to work but caused people trouble but I can't recall what it was now, but it seems like it was screen or sound :(

No, my screen stays on for as long as I have it set.. I'm using phoneAlarm to do it, so not sure if that matters.

In Advanced Config 3.3 go to HTC Animation & change Startup GIF/WAV & Shutdown GIF/WAV
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Broken:
Any other way to disable the startup other than replace what is there with something else? I have the shutdown animation disabled, which was easy. Now just need the startup taken care of.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SoapDoctor:
You don't have to replace what's there, just use advanced config to select somethign else.

I found an HTC logo and converted it to a GIF as well as a PNG for startup/shutdown. Selected some sort of beep for the startup sound and now it's much less offensive.

What I'd like to know is how to replace the "AT&T world phone screen that loads sorta liek the bios for a PC.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] leeneo:
you can try " Sktools " , V4.4.7.*

search for it here , or google ...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jasmithers:
I also use Diamond Tweak for disabling the startup animation and sound -- could never get it to work in ACT.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
You need to create a GIF, BMP, or JPG file that's 480 pixels across by 800 pixels vertically. This will be what eventually shows up as your initial splash screen. Then, you open the image file you created with this, and convert it to a .nb file. Then, use this to convert the .nb you just created to a flashable .nbh file. Flash the .NBH with any Rhodium CustomRUU and you're all done.

Standard Disclaimer: If you brick, it's not my fault, blah blah blah. (Even though you shouldn't; I've used these tools a ton with my Kaiser with no problems whatsoever)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] taze:
on the Hermes there was just a simple regkey to disable the startup animation.

no ones knows the regkey to disable startup and/or shutdown animation on the rhodium:confused:???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] myknyte:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation

-replace StartupGif with a blank (ie: erase the \windows\att_warhawk_boot.gif)

to remove the animation

-replace StartupWAV with blank ("") ie.. erase \windows\att_warhawk_boot.wav)

to remove the annoying startup sound

[General Topics] YesHoney:
When I try to edit a string in cmhomeres.dll, at the end of each text line there is a \0x00 which is lost when saving the change (for all the strings in that resource number and not only for the particular line I'm trying to change). And if I type the \0x00 then the result is \\0x00.

I'm using PE Explorer and followed the instructions given in it's help (under How to edit stringtable strings). Tried both explained methods.

(Did a forum search and found no help for this subject).

What am I doing wrong?
[General Topics] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Well.... 0x00 is a null-character, so it is impossible to replicate (as far as I am aware). What are the effects of modifying the string, excluding the \0x00 and running it on your phone? Are there errors? [ Did you remember to re-sign the DLL ... You can find the signer by searching the forum...] I haven't actually changed strings in the cmhome DLL...so I am not so sure on the subject.
[General Topics] YesHoney:
Unsign - edit - sign. Yes, those steps were followed.

PE Explorer's help states that each line of the stringtable must end with a null character but so far I have not been able to force it into the text.

Tried with ResHacker but using that one the null-char in not even visible.

If I save to a text file, edit there and reintroduce into the dll now I even get CR-LF chars :)

Have not tried copying the file without null-chars to phone for testing because the help file already raised a flag about null-char and afraid to brick it.

It is - the point is that the creation of a goldcard is not an exact science. If your goldcard is not correct, for any reason, it won't work.

There have been many accounts on these forums of people having to try 3 or 4 times (usually using different SD cards) before getting a goldcard that works.

1.What is the differences between "Recovery Rom" and others "Rom"? Do I need both?

2.Do I have to backup a copy of my current "tmobile official rom" before I flash a new rom? In case I want everything back to original.

3.What is the preparation before flashing a new rom for 32B MT3G? Do I have to root the phone before everything?

4.Is that anyway that I can use my tzone plan on MT3G? At least to receive and send mms. (witout data plan)

Thanks people......
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] deprecated:
1. Recovery Images are small images that allow you to implement an aftermarket recovery, providing options like sd card partitioning and flashing from the sd card. These Recovery Images are installed with flashrec on a device that is already running. In essence, yes, you need both, as you need a recovery image in order to flash an aftermarket ROM.

2. You can look around this forum for 'SAPPIMG.nbh'. If you ever want to revert to the stock firmware (or if something goes wrong), place this file on the root of your SD card, power off your device, and hold down 'volume down' and the power button to start the process. Leave it alone and after several minutes you can reboot into a factory device. In addition, making a nandroid backup from your recovery images menu is highly advisable.

3. Yes. You have to root the phone by installing an appropriate recovery image from your existing android installation. There are tutorials on this forum outlining this process in explicit detail.

4. I'm unsure about a 'tzone plan', but I know when I purchased my MT3G I *HAD* to get the unlimited messaging/data plan with it. Are you sure you didn't get this plan?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ashyou:
Once again THANKS!!!

Now i know where to start...

1.Root my MT3G (it seem is a pain to deal with "perfect SPL)

3.Flash a "custom rom"

I got my phone from ebay, so i'm using it witout the data plan.

Got Wifi at school, work place and home, 25usd data plan seem not worth to pay...

I think i have no luck to get "tzone" work for mms service unless i signup for a data plan.
