[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dnunez05:
I dont know if this is the correct forum for this and i dont know if it has been posted before but hey, what the heck, as long as i can help out.

If you don't use Windows or adb has no problem with your device,

you can skip this.

If your G1 or HTC Magic is not properly recognized by ADB under

Windows, then your prayers are answered.

The bottom line: Make sure to enable Home > Settings >

Applications > Development > USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic

*before* you plug it in Windows the very first time.

If you read this after the fact, googling why "adb doesn't recognize

my device under Windows", here are the steps to fix it:

This concerns both the G1 and HTC Magic and all flavors of Windows. I dont know if it works for any other devices out there but its worth a shot.

1- Remove existing drivers

2- Plug your phone

3- Open the Device Manager

4- Remove any driver for [ADB Interface > HTC Composite ADB

Interface] and [Disk Drives > HTC Android Phone USB Device] if you see

them

5- Unplug phone

6- Edit the registry (Disclaimer: be careful what you do in regedit. If you're not sure, then do not proceed to fix your issue and get a someone who is more knowledgeable than you are at this.) Open the Registry Editor (Start > search/run > regedit) You *may* need to be administrator to do this.

7- Search for "vid_0bb4&pid_0c02" in keys or values. (This may take a

while. If you find it in a value, delete the whole key folder.)

8- Some keys may be "locked" and you will not be able to delete the keys. If this happens right-click the folder where the key is located and add "everyone" with "full control" permissions. Then delete the key folder.

9- Repeat the search till no more instances are found.

10- Close regedit.

11- Before your plug in your phone, Make sure to enable Home > Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging on your G1 or HTC Magic

12- Plug the phone in. Windows should now ask you for a driver. (Do NOT selected to search the Windows Update. Instead select "I

will choose a driver" or the equivalent.)

13- Make sure to give the *full* path to the x86 or x86_64 driver, e.g: C:\SDK\usb_driver\x86\ or C:\SDK\usb_driver\x86_64\

If you just select "SDK/usb_driver", Windows will take the wrong

architecture and complain the driver can't be installed.

I hope this helps anyone out there.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dehvee:
Well for the longest time I've had 3G activated on my phone but I've always connected to Edge. As of late my phone has been connecting to Rogers 3G. Sometimes it's stable, most of the time it's not. Connecting to 3G usually causes my phone and data connection to reset, usually back to G or Edge, and at times even causes my phone to soft reset randomly. Just wondering what's the deal with this and if I should just turn off 3G completely.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DezzyLee99:
Maybe it's something you need to call your Roger's rep about? I'm on Rogers and I get 3G very consitsantly. I've had no issues so far. I dunno could it be the rom you're using?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akay_7:
its most likely a software issue. Try doing a hard-reset or try a different rom. Its either that or the 3G reception in your area isn't good. Try using 3G data with a different phone to see if its the network or your phone thats causing the problem
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dehvee:
You guys are both using the X1 right? Cause I remember for the longest time Rogers didn't broadcast the proper 3G bandwidth for the Xperia... I dunno if that's changed since the X1 came out on Rogers
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asian_boi:
are you living in like a small town type of place or areas of the city where they don't really have that many or any signal towers? because that may be part of the reason why you go into edge a lot of times.

I think reception has always been a big issue with sony ericsson phones .

I lived in calgary, and when I drive up to general N.W. areas that are higher up in sea levels (such as edgemont (a phone reception killer location because a few years ago because they never had any reception towers up there) and parts of country hills) I get terrible reception.

my w810i, z610i, and my x1 has crap reception when I get to those areas from time to time.

anyways, hopefully you'll get it all figured out soon.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bikram:
3G to edge to No connection

Hi I was about to open a new thread for it, then I saw yours. At least you are getting a 3G network. Mine just keep looking for it, then it finds 3G then Edge the H (I dont even know what that is) then there is nothing!!!!! Then it restarts again..........

Anybody any idea?

thanks in advance

:(
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dehvee:
Haha funny thing is, I actually live in Calgary and I only get 3G when I drive up North. I live in the South and I only get Edge but when I drive up to the University or am at the University in the NW, I get 3G. And yeah I've gotten H a few times too
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akay_7:
im using the X1a from Rogers, so it does have the 3G bands. Im pretty much on 3G all the time and in some circumstances i get 3G+, which is probably a result of Rogers' enhanced 3G network

if im not mistaken "H" stand for HSPA......which is probably the same as me getting 3G+, guess it depends on the ROM being used.

If your using the X1i......then it could explain your spotty 3G reception

In any case, if your phone is restarting then try a hard-reset
[General Questions and Answers] DinoBc:
Hi,

I have a HTC kaiser with a broken screen and would like to get into the file

system of this device via active sync. The device start up without active sync enabled so when I connect using usb to pc I can't connect.

I was wondering if anyone knows how I could connect to this device and browse the file system.

One idea I've tried that haven't been successful yet it to use

and autorun.exe file in the 2577 folder of the sd card to trigger active sync

to run. Haven't been able to figure out how to do that. Also was thinking maybe could enable bluetooth and connect using a second device.

Finally I tried to get the repllog.exe off another device to place on the sd

and rename to autorun.exe but doesn't let me copy since it on the rom.

Thanks!

[Mogul, XV6800 General] DanRo80:
I am don't want to get the data plan but want to be able to send or receive MMS. Can this be done?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] drewcam888:
yes but you have to have a pay per kb. A data block totally blocks MMS. You shouldnt be charged for the data because verizon should see it as a picture message. If you do charge call them.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] thundaar2000:
You will be charged for sending/recieving mms unless you have a data plan. I have been trying to figure this out for a while. I have 4 phones on a family share plan with unlimited txt/pix/flix. the 3 other phones are regular phones and they send rec mms no problem. I have the 'smart' phone that cant tell the difference between data and mms... it works out to $15.00 per meg too so be carefull...
[Mogul, XV6800 General] drewcam888:
You might be getting screwed because I was told they can tell the difference. And my account was credited for the mistakes.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] ricpdjrr:
Here is my experience... I have a verizon smt 5800. started with a pay per kb. got myself in trouble with a 1000.00 bill.. got verizion to back date the data plan and wipe off the 1000.00 charge ( no way they were getting that any way...) then went to switch back to pay per kb about 1 month ago and was told i could not switch back and that all smart phones need a data plan. found a post on line about same problem and what you need to do is keep calling back until you get a knowledgeable rep. I could not get the pay as you go back but i was able to get a data block and still have sms but you are correct that the mms will not work. I pay $5.00 per month for a set amount of messages ( i think it is 500). I am planning on getting a xv6800 from e-bay and checked with verizion and they told me for certain i could activate the 6800 with the data block still in place. So to answer the original question I think if you have a (older) smart phone and do not want a data plan the only option is a data block and this will let you use sms but not mms. Please let me know if any one else has been able to get a older smart phone recently activated with the pay as you go kb's.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] barbapappa_86:
It often is the latest stable software in the ROMs. And another thing.. It's better if you try some roms out. Its not so popular around here to ask about a god rom. It's a matter of taste and so on. Not so nice to other chefs if i, or any one else recommend a specific rom.

Check the thread about how to flash HSPL and just go nuts flashing and testing. Good luck! :)

Admin, please close.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Before anyone creates a new thread, the basic requirements for common decency would be to read the wiki, forum rules and use the 'search' function.

Now I understand that you are new, but your question(s) have been asked many times before.

FYI, a dummies guide thread exists for flashing. Also to ask an opinionated query is frowned upon in XDA as it creates endless long threads due to everyone having a different opinion. Best advice would be to read first few posts in each rom thread as this generally lists whats in each rom as well as providing a few screenshots of said rom. Then try a few roms to make your own conclusion on whats best for you

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohitk950:
Hello,

I am a new user of HTC phones, and bought a HERO after going through this website and reading the posts w.r.t. Android etc.

I have a few queries, which I am sure will appear quite basic to most of you, however, there are quite greek to me. I am in New Delhi, India and bought my phone a week ago.

1.

I have read about a firmware upgrade to Hero phones. However,the helpline here says that there is no firmware upgrade available. The India page on the HTC website also does not list any upgrade. My phone is unlocked, although it shows another carrier's logo in the first screen, but no other issue. My firmware version shows 1.5 and Build no. shows 2.73.720.5. Is this the latest version or is this upgradeable?

2.

There have been a couple of instances where my phone has frozen, and no button has worked. I have had to remove the battery and re-insert to get it to work again. Is this normal? I haven't had a smart phone before so I wouldn't know the actual behaviour.

3.

I dropped my phone from about 3 feet, and it opened up with its battery flying out and a few minor nicks and scratches on the body and not the screen. No other apparent damage, but could this cause performance issues?

4.

Is there a way to sync this phone manually without having to use Google or Windows? Can I directly access the phones contact list and messages etc, like a data stick?

Would appreciate answers.

Thanks in advance.

i wanna learn something that is Why dont you release an update file instead of a new rom file ?, do you have to release as a new rom file ? i am bored about new rom install issue...tell me why..

thanks in advance...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
The reason chefs don't release update files is because the programs designed to create ImageUpdate files are still in development. There is currently no way for us to use the ImageUpdate system at this time, and that's the only true update mechanism that would work with ROMs.

I suggest that until the XDA ImageUpdate project is online and running (could be awhile), you should learn to automate the installation of all your .cabs, personal info, email accounts, etc. with XDA User Customization (provided your ROM supports this). I have almost nothing to install or configure after a ROM flash because I've automated everything on my device with XDA User Customization.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dr_utku:
i mean that the publishers would make a cab to update our rom. i didnt mean a nbh file. is it logical ?

thanks in advance...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ND4SPD:
They've been developed...the problem is that no current roms support image update and that the program has evolved into a something a bit bigger and has slowed in development.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveShaw:
CABs won't work, because some files are "cooked" into the ROM (read only memory) and cannot be changed.

The "Image Update" been discussed is the solution to this - if you want to know how / why, see here.

Until it's developed, theres not much you can do.

Hope this helps.

I found special solutions - possibility to use COM ports on most of HTC devices

You have to use spcial Nokia's cabel DCU-5 and 11pin miniUSB HTC plug .

After cutting it close to Nokias plug you can find four wire.

Please chceck voltage on connected to PC USB .

White ( earth)

Red 0,15V

Blue 2,34V

Green 0,49 V

If you have the same voltage it's mean

Blue is TX

Green is RX

So you can find in HTC miniUSB possiblity to finnd Tx and RX as on drawing .

To connect with PC you need to use Nokia's driver for virtual port .

Maybe better solution will be use of max3232 circut .

3 = Switch colour Blue

4 = Gnd Colour Red-Yellow

5 = Mic Gnd/Antenna Colour Yellow

6 = +Left Colour Green
[Windows Mobile Software Development] smuppy:
What about charging?

Hm, so this means that if we use this scheme to connect a serialport to the miniUSB-connector we cannot charge the PDA at the same time unless we put separate charging-wires on the +5V and GND...

I have been in contact with HTC about this because we are desperately looking for a solution for a problem we have. We use HTC Advantage 7500/7510 who have a USB-host built-in and using the VGA-out-multi-cable that comes with the 7510 we can get a serialport using a usb-to-serial-connector, but the one that HTC makes is a bit too big and we want to build the connector in to the vehicle cradle.

Your solution might actually work, we need to test this. Huge thanks for the info!!!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] dr4stic:
Couple of notes...

Instead of hunting for voltages on the various wires which may or may not be color coded the same way, it might be easier to look at the following page:

http://jethomson.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/ca-42_dku-5_pinout.jpg

And then (if you've got a continuity mode on your meter), just strip the end of the garbage half (dku-5 connector) of the cable you just cut and tone out the pins to figure out which color means what. It certainly made it tons easier for me. In my case the RS232 RX, TX, and GND were White, Green, and Red respectively.

Also, the drivers listed above may or may not work for you, depending on who made the cable you bought. I purchased mine on eBay for $4 US. The following table shows a list of various DKU-5 cables and their related linux driver (which may help you discern the manufacturer):

http://wiki.gnokii.org/index.php/Cables#DKU-5_and_CA-42

I attached my cable to a linux computer and ran "lsusb" from a terminal. This told me that my particular device was an ArkMicro Technologies 3116... Once I found drivers for that device for Windows XP, I was fine. I'm not sure how you'll figure out the device manufacturer from Windows, but someone here will figure it out :-)
