[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Clontarf[X]:
Hi All,

I have made a script that people can use to easily flash their Himalaya without performing all the above steps manually.

My extreme and eternal thanks go to utak3r (from BuzzDev), xda-developers.com and buzzdev.net for building such great communities and for providing so much help and information (even if it is a little hard to follow sometimes!).

You can download it from;

http://members.iinet.net.au/~nomicakes/MakeSDBoot.zip

http://www.clonnyserver.com/uploads/tools/himalaya/MakeSDBoot.zip

The zip file contains the script and the tools neccesary to do this.

As above, if you aren't familar with flashing devices and the possible outcomes, DO NOT USE THIS TOOL.

Hi there,

Yesterday I tried to upgrade my Qtek 2020 to the last rom available but something went wrong and now my PPC only shows the bootloader screen.

After hours of researching on Google I found this forum and this topic. I tried to do what is in utak3r tutorial but I can't connect to my PPC using mtty (usb port can't open) and I don't know why. :\

When I try himaupgradeut.exe, it gives me a ERROR 101: Connection Error too...

And finally when I run this script made by Clontarf it fails on the last step on writing to the SD card. It gives me a Error - Access Denied.

I don't know how to solve this. Would you please help me? :(

[General Topics] lolToasty:
I'm having the same problems that the people in the following threads had:

http://forum.dailymobile.se/index.php/topic,4403.0.html

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=441428

Thing is, it's on an LG Xenon. I'm on T-Mobile, and the Xenon is for AT&T. I've heard that it could be fixed by going through the registry files, but I haven't found any sort of fix, seeing as T-Mobile is a waste of time when it comes to this problem. I would really appreciate some help. Thank you sooo much, this has been a major problem for me.

Interesting note:

I always receive pictures at a file size of 5 kb or 4 kb or something around that, but when it is retrieving the message it'll say the file is 91kb or something like that. Today, I actually received a picture that was 86 kb, but I didn't do anything differently when I opened it.

Thank you for your time,

Steven.

I am new to the site (it is a great site) and i have just got the HTC Imagio. looking throuh everything on here there is a standard change that everybody has and i do not know how to do it. Everyone has changed the top line of icons (start, battery, 3G, Speaker, signal) all of them are in color. Also the bottom on the Touchflo 3d (home, Mail, Text, Weather, Ect..) also in color. Can some one tell me how this is done and or let me know of a safe cab. file to get? Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tenderfoot:
do you guys ever experienced this? the screen now is always dim and I cannot adjust it via backlight slider.

do you think it is a harwdware (ribbon, backlight LED etc.) problem.

I haven't done any ROM update yet, phone is still on original WWE Singapore ROM.

hope you can help me with this. warranty is out btw.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Beeble:
Its possible its a ribon cable problem (loose or damaged) but is most likely the back lighting for the screen. Before you do any hardware changes, always try the soft reset, then hard reset etc etc to prove its not a software problem. Then i'd check ebay for a repalcement screen (and digitiser - apparently they are a pita to change seperatly) as you say you're out fo warrenty.

Dissassembly guides are in the wiki.

Good luck!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] GuestK0065:
Hey guys,

Usually I used to have internet on my Magician via USB using Windows Mobile Device Center or just WMDC (aka ActiveSnyc for XP users) and it always worked like a charm.

After updating to the newest version of Cotulla's 6.1 ROM (great job man ;D) and using searcher12's fixes (very nice aswell :P) I can't seem to have internet over USB using WMDC anymore =\ I always though the configuration was pretty much automatic (just have to set it up on WMDC).

Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance,

K.

Hi I just found the problem and it's working again for me

1- go to WMDC ---> mobile device setting ---> then connection setting

another window will popup go to [this computer is connected to]

and choose [ Internet] instead of [Automatic]

that's what I did and It's working now

hope it helps you

I'm having an issue with the built in facebook support, I can sign in to flickr and twitter, but when I try to sign in to my facebook so I can link with contacts, it says that the service is currently unavailable....something I'm missing? I'm running fresh rom 0.7 with the patches.

I am having the same problem. Are you using the Hero or Eris? I have an Eris and am having this problem.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
I'm seeing this post topic on all the boards right now. It must be down.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tdavis42:
It must have something to do with the new privacy settings that Facebook just implemented.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
i wonder if maybe you need to log in to facebook.com from your phone and accept the privacy policy?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tdavis42:
Thats a no go. I just logged in to Facebook with the Android app and I still can't login through the Social network option.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
Facebooks no privacy settings reset all of your privacy and app options. We may have to wait for an update for it to work properly, but mine doesn't sign in either, not even Bloo or Fbook.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djsplitimage:
not sure but....

after many...many....many retries it finally connected, that was weird, I just hope that I never have to go through that again (no more wipes for me unless absolutely neccesary)

Anyway, weird glitch, I could log in with the Facebook for Android app though, so not sure what would have caused that.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
I'm pretty sure all that app does is interact with their website as opposed to using the API. Looks like the problems were with the API.

Facebook sync appears broken

To give you a little background, I've had a rooted Hero for quite a while now. I have been running Fresh 1.1 since it was released. I have also had my Facebook linked so I have all of my contacts with pictures and info in my phonebook.

Well after a few other mods on my phone like taskbars, icons, etc. I decided to wipe and go back to a fresh install of Fresh 1.1 again. I linked my Facebook profile again and after a few hours everyone was showing back up in my contacts list with pictures and such.

Last night my phone started acting weird and alot of things were FC'ing, maybe 3 or 4 things, but I didn't look at what specifically. Later last night I realized all my facebook stuff was gone again from my contacts list. I thought that maybe it was because of one of the processes that FC'd so I restarted the phone but as of this morning still a phonebook full of blank heads.

Anyone else had this issue? I've tried logging out and logging back in and everything. Any help would be appreciated, the phonebook looks so ugly without everyones pictures.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] willy900wonka:
It may be a coincidence, but facebook itself has some severe issues right now. Some people are of a mind that the "new" viewing heuristics are themselves broken. You now view based on your history and interactions with/of your friends. My age there is 100 so it they write (email) to me personally.:rolleyes:

I am having a problem getting my facebook calendar to sync.

facebook/google birthdays

i have some contacts that i have entered birthdays for in my google address book, however they are also friends of mine on facebook. i noticed within the calendar widgets that it lists the birthdays for these contacts twice once for the google contacts calendar and one for the facebook calendar. Is there a way to fix this so for linked contacts it only lists the birthday on one calendar.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] 76flip:
uncheck facebook in your calendars to show.

Contacts facebook link

Is there a way to link all contacts with their appropriate facebook account automatically, i remember in 1.5 it would auto predict and suggest linking automatically for all the contacts, there is no option to do all contacts in 2.1...

anyone know of a way to go about doing that instead of painfully going one by one...

The quickest way off the top of my head then would be to set up a group. Should only take a bit to get the few people you text most, then they add to the top as later as you text.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kingakuma:
If you're using Gmail for all your contacts after you have synced them the first time it will save their link information in the notes section... So anytime after that you have to wipe/upgrade what ever the case may be it will auto sync them again.

2.1 will suggest the user to you once it has fully synced with facebook just go into people and got to Updates and Events when their are suggested users it will be shown their just click it to sync it's suggested users that are not currently synced with your contacts
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
Yep. Mine has been auto syncing since I've been on 2.1.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gordonfink:
I did a hard reset, and am stuck at the screen alignment. I installed Remote Screen Alignment, but it appears not to have a setting for the Epix. Also, when I run it, I get an error trying to configure the remote device.

I am wondering if I need to create a .dat file for the Epix. Does anyone know the Epix calibration settings, or some other work around for beign stuck on this screen?

Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eugenile:
Sorry you didn't get any response faster.

I had the same problem.

I too asked for the dat and others presets.

Guess what if those didn't work the problem is the touch screen digitizer. No way around it, you have to replace it.

It is cheap on ebay $15-19 shipped. I just finished putting it on.

Caution on taking the phone apart. It's not that easy to do so.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] andy7079:
Do you have any tips for taking the phone apart?

My digitizer is crazy and I can't get the screen to allign. I'm ready to replace it, but a little weary about taking the phone apart so far.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eugenile:
There is no resource whatsoever on how to take the phone apart.

I just did it cold turkey. You just can't be afraid.

I took apart an i607 Blackjack before using instructional videos. I think this was a bit easier. Similar and easier.

I did not even refer to those videos again, I just went at it like no ones business. If your scared then you will probably mess up. :)

You obviously remove the battery tray, battery and sim card

Remove the stylus

Remove the rubber cover nub on the upper left side.

Unscrew all the visible screws. IIRC there are 3 on each side. This is probably one of the tough parts, because each screw looks to have been applied with some loctite material. You really need a proper screw driver. Philips head, but really small. You will see it. If you start stripping the screw, or strip it. START TO GET WORRIED. Because I don't know how you will get it out then. So after you removed all the screws. Do not expect the phone to come off easily.. IT WONT, its like it is still together.

You will need to use some FORCE to pry a small portion of the phone open, and when I say small I mean small because they are clipped together tight.

If you bought the digitizer from EBAY it comes with this

That included screw driver is a torx head which is no use to you. But that yello tool is what you need to use to pry the case apart without scratching the case.

So again once you pry a small portion.. I STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM, insert that yellow tool in the opening and run it along the case and it will start to pry open the case apart.

After that, you shall see the board.. this is where my memory gets vague.

I don't think there was any other screws to be removed to remove the board, but there might have been 1.

Anyways on the left side you will see a small ribbon cable that runs through the front of the phone, that is the cable that attches to the digitizer. Unclip it and remove it. Then carefully pry the board until you see the front screen digitizer.

Now you will need to decide how you are going to remove this because it is glued on. Be careful as you will need to use force. The OEM case though IS VERY STRONG. I was flexing that b!tch and it did not crack or snap. Good quality for sure Samsung.

Once you have it removed, you will need to have new adhesive, or be ghetto and just peel apart the one from the old digitizer and reposition it for the new one.

Put the new one, attach the ribbon cable and put phone back together.

Wish I could've taken pictures while I did it, but no one ever seems to speak up about calibration problems I thought I was the only one, and I was eager to install it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] andy7079:
I finally got around to fixing the digitizer. Removing the screws went suprisingly well. There was another screw on the PC board that I removed. I reused the adhesive, but I had to trim some parts of it to get it flat. Overall it went pretty well.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] keff:
Thank you thank you! I just replaced my i907's digitizer and thanks to your thread, it was smooth sail.

If you didn't write it here, I would certainly feared removing the digitizer with such a force, I'd fear that I'm gonna break the frame. Fortunately, Samsung made it so soft it bends almost any angle without breaking.

It helped to put the frame on the table with a digitizer down, push onto the transparent area of digitizer with fingers (starting in some corner), and slowly pull the frame upwards, away from digitizer.

I recommend this seller: http://myworld.ebay.com/e2_express/ - it was a cheapest i907 digitizer on eBay, with free international shipping for $11, and he included all tools I needed for repair. My Epix now works perfectly (well, apart from ROM, but that's a completely different story, f**k you very much, AT&T :).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ben_f_roberts:
Replace sceen May 2010

This is actually easier and scarier than it sounds.

Six screws: four at the corners of the battery compartment, one under the rubber plug upper left, and one under the stylus. (When putting back together-be careful with the stylus screw. The stylus goes inside and so will the screw. Time to take it apart, again.)

I could not re-use the adhesive. When I was taking off the old screen, the adhesive curled up longitudinally, tried to straighten, then it balled up. My wife scrapbooks so I used her photo adhesive strips. Not as strong, probably not long term, but I needed to put the phone back together.

Putting the ribbon connector back takes patience. Be sure the "clamp" is open before you start.

If the volume rocker comes off, dammit, there is a tiny hole that fits over a tiny peg, then slide the other end into the tiny slot.

I'm impressed with the inside of my Epix. Pretty amazing how much, and how they cram it in there.

Helo and mornin!

New day, new problem.

when i get a missed call, the first name that is seen isnt of the person who gave me one.

Like:

If i got a missed call from my GF, her name isnt the first on the list. someone else's name is first. then i have to go to my GF's name, and see what time she gave me missed call, tally that with the current time.

Luckily as of now, ive got very little contacts, but how do i get the person who last gave me a missed call on top of the list...

PS: this happens for incoming, outgoing and missed calls..

I tried leaving it on the charger and got nothing... I tried safe mode (which works fine) and wiped handheld and installed all the root stuff and try to reboot from there but same thing... steel blue ANDROID for maybe 5 minutes then LED flashes red and shuts off

Also tried bootloader (camera+power) and will say battery voltage too low charge or replace battery, but no matter how many fully charged batteries I put in it it says the same thing... even if it's charging...

bad battery or hardware failure. try a new battery, if that doesnt work, warranty the phone.

so since i've tried numerous batteries it's probably a hardware failure and I should buy one with a broken screen and replace the motherboard or what?

you can try that, but i'd advise against it. my recommendation would be to ship it to HTC and let the pros fix it, because if you screw it up trying to replace parts yourself, they wont take it back.
