Question from wcornelius

Try to use an XP computer since W7 is known to cause issues. There are some guides on how to do this with W7, but I still prefer XP.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] wcornelius:
no xp

i dont have a pc with xp all i have is windows 7 home. Shoot me a tutorial or tips please.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] molynyk:
Thanks for answer. I guess that is something I should be able to find, but I don't know which ROM to download. Do you have a recommedation on a stable well proven version of win6.5 for the xv6900? I don't need anything cutting edge, just one that all the main stuff works.

Thanks again,

Matt

I think he was stuck at the bootloader screen after using the .41unlocker and trying to flash a rom with a GPS radio.

The link I put up was an old nonGPS Sprint rom.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
I am still baffled by the 102 MB nbh he was trying to flash... I insist that this is waay too large for the Vogue.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
The latest 3 roms out there are Lmiller's v13, B-Rom, and mine (the thing about mine is that it is specially set for MetroPCS users, not that it cannot have the settings changed, but I think you are better off with either of the other two). However, I will not get offended if you try mine ;)

Good luck!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
You can try to flash via SD card. If you have a SD 2 GB or smaller, formatted to FAT32, simply grab the file named RUU_signed.nbh and rename it to VOGUIMG.nbh and drop it in the root of your card. Once you are done, reboot into bootloader and the device should take it from there. Good luck!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] scotttr:
If you extract the vzw ruu there are 2 .nbh files, one is 12mb and the other is 98mb. The Sprint ruu could have a 102mb file.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
You were right, I just extracted it and it has 102 MB...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] codf4ther:
If you want stable I'd go with vin's 23506_V4 rom. It's not the latest 6.5 build, but in my mind its legendary in terms of functionality/stability.

I have HTC Vogue Sprint with radio 3.42.30, i wanna worked GPS, where i can download latest radio?

No internet

Hi,

I just tried posting this, but it seems to have disappeared.

I have an HTC Touch (Telus). I have just recently upgraded to 6.5 from 6.1. I have tried several of the different available flashes, but they all give me the same problem. I have no data (online) service. Voice, text, and GPS all work fine. It tells me username or password are incorrect. I know I have them properly entered.

I used to have this same problem with 6.1 after a hard reset, but it was easily fixable by dialing **22803 (1,1). This does not work for me now with 6.5. I simply get a recording telling me that the upgrade service is not available at this time. I have tried many, many times over the past couple of days.

Any help would be appreciated. BTW, this is my first post.

You may have to use the Telus Provisioning cab if you haven't done so already. Also, you have to set up your connection by going to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections and either add a new connection or Edit the existing connection (if there is one already). Also, make sure that your settings in EPST are correct (especially username and password)

I have a newly purchased BELL HTC Touch running WM 6.1 w/ unlimited mobile browsing and have decided I would like to give WM 6.5.3+ a try. I am impressed by its modern and more touch-friendly design.

I am looking for something that is stable, up to date, visually appealing (6.1's txt msgs are very bland), good and popular apps preinstalled (coreplayer, etc), a spacious keyboard (unlike that of 6.1's stock), Youtube and various other video/audio support, etc. Which ROM is best for me?

Do you guys have a set of core apps, games, customizations, etc. that you recommend?

Btw, is it possible to get HTC Sense on the Touch?

I hope to not get ORD so I'm really looking for The One, lol.

egzthunder1, how i can flash it from SDCard? Me rename file VOGUIMG.nbh, rebbot device, POWER+Camera, but nothing..)=
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] e59741:
make sure you are using a non-HC sd card, it must be less than 2gb, I use a 1gb for rom flashing.

if you have trouble booting to the bootloader, try powering off, remove and replace battery if needed, then press and hold camera button, then also press and hold power button until the bootloader comes up. it will begin flashing automatically if the system detects a valid VOGUIMG.nbh file on a compatible sd card.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] e59741:
for switching roms on the fly, I keep several on my flashing sd card and have them named for recognition, changing the name to VOGUIMG.nbh for the rom I wish to use at that time. for the roms that prompt or autoload cabs I keep cabs for my most used progs on the same card

when not flashing, I use my hc-8gb for normal storage.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] r3ddrag0nx:
what are some very commonly used cabs (both apps n games) that individuals have or should have that aren't included in the crop of current cooked roms?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] icreative:
e59741,all right, i have goldcard for another phone)) format sdcard and it flashing radio rom.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
You may want to try the following roms:

*NFSFan's latest

*Vin's latest

*LMiller's latest

*B-Rom latest

*I would recommend mine, but it is especially configured for MetroPCS users. however, you can install the provisioning cabs for Bell and it would be good as well.

Apps, I usually don't recommend simply because everyone has a different way of playing with their devices. Just get whatever you feel you will need or want to play with.

As far as Sense... no can do! It is VGA and up only! Hope this helps.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Your SD card has to be:

*Formatted for FAT32

*Be 2GB or less

*Not be SDHC

Simply do what you are doing (rename file and drop in the root of the SD card, put the device in bootloader, and the device takes care of the rest.... it should work.

Good luck!

VogueRUU.zip how to run .rar file

Hi,

I successfully flashed the unlocker 2.31 by the coke man. When I tried to open or run the VogueRUU.zip file attached to your thread it opened and gave me a .rar file. My question is how do I run the file? Is it just a matter of extracting the zip file with WinZip? Please help! Im so ready to custom rom my touch vogue. Thank you.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] scotttr:
gbirky: these are the instructions I followed to get my gps working: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=533639 You can stop after step 4, instead of using the download listed with step 4 use the verizon one that egzthunder1 has posted in his tutorial. Also since you will not be letting cutomizations run it won't be exactly the same verizon rom you are used to, but if you let cusomizations run, gps will not work.

jrivera1977: .rar is just another compressed file, winzip will work for it. There should be an ruu in there somewhere.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
In theory, flashing to any radio over 3.xx.xxx will unlock your GPS. However, follow the post that scotttr pointed you to. It is the most effective guide that I have seen for Verizon users.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Simply use WinRAR or 7-zip to extract the contents of the rar file. I had to put it in zip format because I couldn't upload rar files to xda.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] nuttyprof:
Ok. Stupid question, but how do you use Manilla? I finally got NFSFAN's ROM flashed, when I saw there is a screenshot of something I've not seen on my phone. It has a flip clock and a row of buttons on the bottom. I'm guessing thats Manilla.

So, how do I get to that screen? Yes, I am an idiot.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] scotttr:
Start: Settings: Today: Items: check TouchFLO and verify that Windows default has unchecked itself and exit out of the start menu, it should say somthing like starting TouchFLO and then it will go to the screens you are refering to.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Weird because NFS has it configured to become the Today plugin upon finishing customization...

@nutty,

did you hard reset after flashing?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] scotttr:
I don't know what he did with previous versions of the rom, but every phone I've flashed with V1.0 has come up with the titanium home screen.

Works fine for me using a hotmail.com login, I had to download the the new MyPhone app from Microsoft first tho, sync'd using WiFi and 1.43 ROM, and re-sync'd using WiFi and 1.66 ROM. I didn't have the new NET Framework compact installed if that would make a difference.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] totalperception:
So we've seen the projects to create a ROM for Android on the Rhodium... Well now that the Symbian Foundation has released their open source code I think our handy dandy developers have an even greater challenge on their hands!

Who else is interested?

For those of you interested I've included information on the source code from Symbian.org:

developer. symbian. org/wiki/index.php?title= Category:Platform_Opening&action=edit

Hey fellow XDA-ers. I thank you for your thoughts thus far. Android is only a part of the next wave in Mobile Computing. Honestly I've found the MyTouch I owned from T-Mo too be toooooo slow and toooooo consumerish. I like a phone that has both lifestyle and professional all in its mix. This makes me a big fan of WinMo and Symbian. Seeing that Windows Mobile and Symbians *NEW* operating system both run C++ and .NET it may be much easier, practical and cooler than we think.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Gootah:
Yea...

Theoretically it should be a pretty fast and stable alternative. It would be dope, but there wouldhave to be some major UI changes for me to try it out....but maybe I'm unsure on how far Symbian has come...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] phr33ksho:
I personally don't see the need for another proprietary operating system with its origins 20+ years old, windows mobile is enough of that for me.

Android was developed from the ground up with modern mobile devices in mind and in my opinion anyways is the most promising mobile os on the market right now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ScooterG:
UI changes in Symbian??? Sense/TF3D makes Symbian look like a Palm M500 :p I'd rather any developers with free time spend it on Android.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sashaohio:
No need for that man. Even though Symbian has the highest exposure worldwide Android is the next wave, plus Nokia has Maemo to push as it is. Dual OS is more than enough for HTC user, such as myself. Just imagine triple boot :) Gen.Y where are you? :) LOL

Android is crap i had a few device, and simbian is just fallin in darkness...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] The Jack of Clubs:
why would you want symbian? i could see android and iphone os for the apps and winmo for the customization and community support, even palm and webos... for reasons. but symbian isnt pretty, or userfriendly, customizable, or have alot of apps. its a slightly uglier version of blackberrys os. besides does it even support wvga resolutions? i think the only other os to do that is android.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] CarpeNoctem:
... what a weird discussion, I do understand to have Symbian a lot more than Android here are my point against android:

- everybody says it is open source, the core is but nothing else that is why there are so few aternative ROMS

- No real GPS software, dont even star to compare with solutions available on Symbian or WM

- No tethering without hack!!!!! I am dreaming here, I was about to by the Moto-Droid, when I saw that I went back to my good TP2

- Google is as close as Apple when it come to app available on its store.

a nice GUI is NOT all, and software and functions make the difference, people can complain as much as they want about the "old" WM is it so far the OS which give the more flexibility and Symbian cones just behind, use a N97 and you'll see how smooth it is.

Now this will probably lead to a troll discussion but for me trying to adapt Android to some other device or symbian is perfect for fan who want to play but not for "production" phone, and for that I clearly keep WM so far. waiting for WM7

Best
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
OP: Have you ever even used Symbian? I have, and I have to say it's the most god awful mobile OS I've ever used. I returned the Nokia I bought within a week because Symbian was truly terrible. I can't honestly imagine why anyone would want to run Symbian, by choice, when you have other options like Android, Maemo/Mer, Windows Mobile, or

anything other than Symbian

. I wouldn't ever want the capable developers who could port Symbian actually waste their time on such a terrible OS. Porting Symbian to the Pro2 would be a downgrade; it would be like trading in a premium, business class smartphone for a $10 feature phone. IMO, not worth it. [/my 2 cents]
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jaekidd1012:
i've used the N97 before. in fact, I came to the TP2 from an N97. symbian is, IMO, one of the most brilliantly designed mobile OSes in existence but it's implementation on the N97 was flawed, to put it mildly. don't get me wrong--I love Symbian and the N97 but there was too much wrong for me to overlook. For one, the v. 12 firmware(and, to a lesser extent, the v. 20 firmware) was too buggy for me and the N97 was all but smooth even with theme effects turned off. This may have been remedied with more RAM and a MUCH faster CPU(OMAP 3, anyone?). For what was to be a flagship the N97 was a great disappointment.

As for Symbian on the TP2, I would wait until later in the year to see what Symbian^3 has to offer before considering porting it.

Just my $.02...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] totalperception:
@jaekidd1012

You get the point and understand.

I think most of the people are thinking of the old S40 OS which was garbage. But S60v5 which will now become the revamped Symbian^3, ^4 and ^5 will be an amazing piece of ROM and feature rich capabilities.

Because Symbian and WM are both written in Windows codes this should be a much easier project than Android. Android is great for those who want to use it but it's going to be overshadowed in years to come by Apple, Nokia and Windows.

(pending the Nokia v Apple litigation over Apple misusing patented Nokia technology)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] The Jack of Clubs:
i would love to see sense on wvga. i hope htc isnt giving up on that. i think android has the customization of windows mobile with the app store and prettyness of iphone os. just dont expect any other os's to run. linux has a way of working on any device.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] AlienCraB:
Thumbs Up!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] CarpeNoctem:
That where I disagree. the Operating system is the base of a platform and so far Android is as stuck as the iPhone, WM offer a lot more "playability" let see if WM7 will be as good for that. the important part is also the software and Android/Google as iPhone/Apple want to control all of this so refuse software allowing tethering and have the right of life and death on any application. I HATE this,

I bought the phone, it is MINE, if I want to void the warranty it is my problem, if I want to install an illegal application in my country I take responsability and refuse that google or Apple guide me like if I was a kid, I mean look at that: http://www.androidguys.com/2010/01/25/nexus-censoring-swear-words/ I really can't stand that you buy a piece of equipment for so much and companies want to force you to use it there way. Plus privacy!!! GOOGLE STORES EVERYTHING YOU DO WITH YOUR (???) PHONE!!! And nobody complains, everybody loves it. a nice GUI is not enough to make a good OS, I am not even talking about the iphone and the multitasking...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] bvone21:
I was wondering why other posters were making it sound like this was the worst idea anyone's ever read...it didn't sound too bad to me, hah. S60v5 doesn't look as awful as the posts are making it seem.

I don't really care too much either way on this topic. If there was a working rom out there I'd flash to it just to tinker around with since I've never used symbian. That said, I'm more excited about android progress (Even more so about W7, fingers crossed that we aren't disappointed), and totally fine with wm6.5.3 for day to day use until my next device.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] The Jack of Clubs:
android lets you customize the look and feel as much if not more than windows mobile, supports multiple devices and different resolutions, and lets you install programs outside the app store. thats why i think its most like windows mobile. it has the bonus of looking good and having lots of apps like iphone os. which is all why im most excited about it. i think it still feels a little bare but its getting developed fast.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] PNut:
The last time i really liked Symbian, it was called EPOC on my good old Psion Series 5mx, it had great community and support, nowadays symbian is just a crippled platform that mostly Nokia uses. I think its too late for them to go open source, it should have happened years ago...

I just hope that WM7 will be as good as Win7 after the good old matured XP :)

how exactly did you come up with "proprietary":eek: idea when it was released as opensource. by the very definition it can not be proprietary.

20+ years ago? wow... you are pretty ignorant, aren't you? why don't you go read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbian_OS before you make yourself look any more foolish.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] brycestejskal:
Who is the one that sounds foolish here? Sure you are right that symbian RECENTLY made the jump from proprietary to opensource....but your an ass for rippin someone a new one because your reading comprehension skills need some work. He said symbians ORIGINS are 20+ years old which you seem to disagree with. Yet the very page you link to in order to back up your insults clearly states that EPOC was renamed Symbian OS at a later time. Once again as the page you linked too states, EPOC was developed in the late 80s early 90s. Therefore his statement that it's ORIGINS are 20+ years old(considering the company was founded in 1980) is not incorrect based on YOUR citation. In addition, the poster also used the words: PERSONALLY and IN MY OPINION in regards to how he felt about porting the OS.

Aside from YOUR foolishness, your post did not contribute anything and was nothing but rubbish, degrading someone else. Please refrain from making comments such as this. It degrades the overall experience of XDA and even if he was incorrect there is no reason to be so rude about it is there? Honestly...
