All ROMs are great..It's depends what you need and what you prefer :D

Nobody can tell you which ROM suit you, you need to try one by one :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] meltwater:
What about using the wiki cooked Rom's page? Wasn't that created for this very purpose?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wayneroughneckz:
I've been lurking with the XDA forum for quite sometime now and its my very first posting and I'm having difficulties finding answers on search box I just simply give up looking for appropriate answer to my question. Since I like to use the good old Winmo 6.1 rom (Davideuck_V-7_MSVC to be exact)my bad is I forgot to SPL to earlier version 1.15 so got a green kinda thing on my screen, so I apply Restore_Stock_SPL_115 and everything went fine. (I know I'm stupid :() Unfortunately after I update the Time and Date it suddenly appear " This concludes the beta test for this software release....... blah, blah,.... guess what? its a time bomb can't do anything on screen but to reset. So I decide to re-flash it again but I got stuck at 0% on bootloader mode and got Error 262, I tried to understand whats the meaning of it and I did, but never got any solution how? I tried to flash it with HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex to restore Winmo 6.5 but I got stuck again on 0%. something unusual I tried to reflash more roms and it didn't work. All the Roms I've wont reach 1% Even flashing on SD card trick wont load. And my spl ver 1.15 can't flash anything. So I that's why I need your help desperately...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] O and O:
Near enough the exact same situation as me! I think that 1.15 file may have issues.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClydeB1:
If you are getting an Error 262, you need to run manual sspl in order to resolve this. Read this post for the steps (post #2) and sspl tool (post #1) - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505377. You can also get all of the steps needed to successfully flash. if you have questions, please post them in that thread.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wayneroughneckz:
It seems when I restart my phone normally, I noticed that the message about " This concludes the beta test for this software release....... blah, blah" the manila interface was behind it when I press the task manager and the volume buttons it responses means its not bricked (hope so) maybe the reason why I cant flash anything? Or whatever...Well that's my observation..... Please guys I needed my phone badly tomorrow :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Did you not read my post :rolleyes:. You can flash another rom, error 262 is common. You just need to use sspl before flashing to hspl 1.56.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hispeedworm:
if ur stuck with hspl and cant flash that than try uspl or try stock rom.... they get installed without hspl or uspl installed.... its available in the blackstone wiki section
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hispeedworm:
and with stock rom get through tomorrow . than try hspl or uspl with custom rom later on when u have free time
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zerozed:
Upgrade the ROM with latest official HTC release it upgrades the bootloader to ver 1.54 as well. Then you can install the newest version of HSPL or just use USPL to flash whatever cooked ROM you want.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wayneroughneckz:
Apologies on replying again here instead of posting on the designated thread :o, but forgive my innocence the thread says "" launch SSPL-Manual.exe from attachment, run it, wait until 1.07.OliNex tricolour screen says "USB" on it, then run the HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on the PC. "" how exactly that's going to be done? Currently I got the tri-color screen saying SPL-1.15.0000 and a USB on the bottom and when I flash either hspl or uspl I always end up on gray screen with a 0% that doesn't move at all, how can I manually apply SSPL? I cant access Manila interface because of time bomb message? My life's getting complicated! :o
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Semicuda:
If possible try flashing from an XP box, Vista/7 might give you some additional trouble if you don't use the right drivers. But if you get to the 0% screen, the issue shouldn't be with the SPL... so don't worry, I doubt the phone is bricked :)

So: try XP and/or using the drivers provided in the Flashing-thread
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wayneroughneckz:
I tried the Official one Blackstone_WWE_1.56.405.1 and got Error[294] Invalid Vendor ID :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zerozed:
Did you downloaded the ROM from the HTC site? If the ROM is from the official site try again using USPL.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wayneroughneckz:
I seach the wiki page and found the latest version which is "Blackstone_WWE_1.56.405.1" and I can't find it on the official site, it should be "WWE" not specifying on certain countries, so I manage to download it from Rapidshare link. and for the SSPL I don't think I can do that coz I can't access my phone coz it has tim bomb probably the main culprit here.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Any flashing problems should be posted in Dummies Guide thread.

[G1 General] mrxkills:
Ive been wondering all these damn phone companies including HTC the maker of the G1 has been primarily focusing on Iphone look-a-likes, maybe i just dont really like Iphones or my G1 is getting old lol, i would love to see development for a True G2, i mean i bought the mytouch i regretted it so bad just a piece of **** phone, maybe i got used to the keyboard or something but anyways, what do you guys think would be great specs for successor for the G1?

I think Video,RAM,Processor would ultimately become something great if added multitouch, 5-8 megapixel cam with flash would be great :), Java would be fun!! what else do you think would make this Android Lover Dream.

Design?
[G1 General] Macrophage001:
A sleeker look. They should thin it out a bit but keep the same Device keyboard and its format.

...With 2.1 eclair Firmware =>
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Specs equal to or better than GN1, physical keyboard with properly aligned keys (you know, where the A-S-D-F row is offset by half a key from the Q-W-E-R and Z-X-C-V rows), and most importantly.....

FULLY DOCUMENTED HARDWARE, i.e. full open source drivers so that we can take command of the device when the manufacturer decides to stop supporting it....
[G1 General] Ace42:
The Mytouch slide might be it..
[G1 General] CompactDstrxion:
I'd be all over a Snapdragon phone with a QWERTY.
[G1 General] iVisionX01:
I'm pretty sure that's still using the 528Mhz processor.
[G1 General] mrxkills:
:)

yeah seriously would be nice i love the G1 i mean no-other keyboard phone has been released, i do like the separated keys on the Hardware key since i have huge hands it feels at home. maybe the snapdragon processor, with a fully customizable android OS or at least UI or something, the 2.1 Update of Android really kicked it up a notch but i know that there can be a better looking OS in the end with tons of great features. mytouch slider would be interesting but i dont know isnt a bit too big for a slider? unless they do a built in battery and well do a similar design as the palm pre.
[G1 General] Diceman4:
Remember the Droid?
[G1 General] JAguirre1231:
That's exactly what I was thinking
[G1 General] highvista:
I agree that I'm disappointed by the lack of phones with a hardware keyboard. I'd also like to see hardware buttons used instead of the touch-based ones like the Droid and N1 have--as well as preserving the Call and End buttons of the G1.

I'd be happy to see HTC introduce a phone that looks nearly identical to the G1, with these improvements:

>=3.7 inch 800x480 Screen

Snapdragon 1GHz Processor

>= N1's Memory Specs

Android 2.1

Barring this, I hope that an N1 with a good hardware keyboard comes along. Until then, I'm sticking with the G1.
[G1 General] JAguirre1231:
You forgot not the size of a brick
[G1 General] highvista:
That would be nice, but it's not critical to me if it means a hardware keyboard at least as useful as the G1's and a good-sized battery. I also find if a phone gets too skinny, it's hard to comfortably hold when in use.
[G1 General] BoomBoomPOW:
1.5Ghz HTC Scorpion, it's just rumors for now. Slap on a hardware keyboard on this bad boy and I'm set for life. :rolleyes:
[G1 General] mannyb:
The Scorpion would rock, but unfortunately it's likely fake. A lot of stuff in the build file does not add up. But man, it would rock.

A man can dream though, right?
[G1 General] mbrunt:
Yeah I'd totally go for the Nexus One specs with the G1's keyboard and hardware buttons. Not to mention a 3.5mm jack, which the G1 is sadly lacking. But then again, I'd take the G1's keyboard on just about anything. It's second to none of any PDA or smartphone I've seen, except perhaps the Atari Portfolio... and yes I remember when that was released! :) That's the G1's ancestor, the G1 being 20 years in the making...

As for camera, I REALLY wish they would concentrate on getting the cameras to take quick shots without blur rather than aiming at high pixel count. I like my cell phone to take quick snaps, even in questionable lighting. I'll use a real digital camera for high quality shots.
[G1 General] mrxkills:
lol i know and the cliq but im talking about a real G1 successor by HTC the keyboard from droid/cliq suck balls!!!! big hairy ones too lmaoo
[G1 General] mrxkills:
couldnt have said it better myself, the keyboard just makes the G1 what it is today,Im keeping the G1 till something else comes out thats tops the G1..maybe HTC decided to tease us and that was it just a tease...i mean come on! Sapphire(Mytouch,G2),Hero (G3)GSM/CDMA, i could care less for a sense UI but i would love a more snappier up to date G2 and i mean the real G2
[G1 General] Burko:
This is the same situation that led me away from WinMo phones.

The HTC Universal was pretty much the perfect device..... A successor was touted for years but nothing ever materialised....

Same is happening here, the silly non-hardware buttons on the face which are totally non-intuitive, 4 row keyboards requiring 2 button presses to produce a number.....

I don't hold out much hope for anything better, looks like a concession will have to be made somewhere...
[G1 General] su27:
Inbrics M1?
[G1 General] lbcoder:
The keys are incorrectly aligned. Look at a real keyboard -- the "ASDF" row is offset by a half key from the "QWER" and "ZXCV" rows. DREAM had the keyboard alignment right. All this other stuff is JUNK.
[G1 General] kathi17:
That's exactly what I have been hoping for, and even asked HTC for. I don't like the motorolas, I want my next phone to be HTC with the exact same four row keyboard we have now, and the above specs.

Of course I would like a better looking phone, but I would be happy with this design if it was upgraded.

I really can't understand why they keep making new MT3Gs, and not a new G1. I feel we got short changed with the G1, and they should give us the option of a new upgraded one that isn't underpowered from the beginning.

edit:I just tweeted this thread to @htc. I hope they pay attention!
[G1 General] AbsoluteDesignz:
Seriously...a fully powered non "lets see how they react to this ish" TRUE G2 would be amazing...The G1 has arguably one of the better keyboards on a 'slider' phone...from what i've seen of the my touch slide....just no..I'll wait for the N1 enterprise edition.
[G1 General] DAKIDD236:
Im so tired of my G1, ive had it for way too long. The HTC scorpion is looking really nice!
[G1 General] :
lol yeah seriously whats up with the Mytouch FENDER edition? i mean theres nothing really special about it..other than the music app, random wallpapers,apps etc. doesnt make a big difference. its all corporate i guess.. :(
[G1 General] lbcoder:
They're just trying to target the iDoucheBag market.
[G1 General] :
lol!! yeah i think quite possibly they are
[G1 General] seanhassars:
to all the "must have a real keyboard" folks in here, I recommend finding yourself a beta of Swype. I to thought I'd never do without a keyboard, I still bought the N1 thinking if I didn't like it, I'd just sell it and move on, but Swype has made me realize that a real keyboard isn't necessary.
[G1 General] Ace42:
MyTouch-Slide of course, not confirmed as successor but makes sense:

http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/t-mobile-mytouch-slide-in-the-wild/
[G1 General] SolemnWishing:
I'm just curious, because for me this is a big deal as I like viewing pictures on my phone, the resolution for the most part is mediocre, acceptable for its screen size, but the color depth I believe is less than acceptable. The screen supports 65K colors which for me is a disappointment and makes the screen less appealing than the iPhone screen, same resolution, about the same size but with 16,000,000 color support. Wouldn't you guys want a 24bit screen too?
[G1 General] :
I'm not buying a new phone until 1.5 years from now, so I'm waiting for that dual core snapdragon
[G1 General] :
I will never buy a non htc phone again! (this is my 2nd phone too!) razr v3 -> G1 -> Dual Core snapdragon of some sort
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Sure. Just try typing with your eyes closed or without looking at the screen.

Can't do it?

Thought that would be the case.

Must have a real keyboard.
[G1 General] Jacob_K:
Well I'm stuck with my G1 til 03/sep/2010. I hope T-mobile UK will have a better android phone out by then. If not I'll stay with my trusty G1.
[G1 General] odomandr:
hopefully it will be november of this year, thats when all the original preorders for the G1 will be due for the full upgrade ie: me
[G1 General] :
im with u on that one!
[G1 General] Burko:
Did you guys get 2 year contracts? Mine is up in April?
[G1 General] Odinist:
Why they hell are you typing on your phone with your eyes closed?
[G1 General] Icebergxx:
(not to be rude)

So I can mod edit text while I drive!

haha :)
[G1 General] Odinist:
Mwahahahaha, win. =)
[G1 General] lbcoder:
One of the big signs for a VERY BAD TYPIST is that they are looking at their fingers while they type.
[G1 General] Ace42:
After awhile you remember where the keys are.
[G1 General] calgore:
Wait why are you drivin' with your eyes closed?
[G1 General] jongie123:
And at least a 1500 battery.
[G1 General] codito:
So you're an idiot?
[G1 General] ihpsta:
When a G1 successor comes out it's time to upgrade. Long live the king!
[G1 General] protomanez:
He was being sarcastic, a joker. It made me laugh, lighten up a bit man. I'll stick with the G1 until I has muney for other gadgets ._.
[G1 General] Icebergxx:
I know it's not much, but you just saved someone from getting their head bit mod edit off. so thanks for that one.
[G1 General] lazinase:
Letter after G? N!

I bought a Nexus One (529 one) as my as a replacement of my slow G1 as well as my birthday gift. All I can say is that I love my Nexus One and I think it's G1's successor.
[G1 General] Ryanmo5:
No need for the strong language, stay on topic.
[G1 General] quicksite:
No no no. It's the HTC Desire (formerly HTC Bravo). Optical tracking; much better ergonomically.
[G1 General] lazinase:
I love playing around the trackball...and personally I think the trackball is the key to be successor...
[G1 General] Burko:
I personally find the trackball the weakest part of the g1 package, especially when in a webpage trying to click on a particular link.

I havent used an optical input device a la the desire, but i think that could be even more counter-intuitive
[G1 General] jordanjay29:
A G1 successor would have to have the hardware keyboard, and a good one, so neither the Desire nor the N1 can claim that title.
[G1 General] jongie123:
Just wait for the Nexus two.
[G1 General] Ace42:
They already said the N2 would be the Moto Shadow.
[G1 General] borodin1:
Shadow????? :eek: This does not deserve to be Google's flagship phone!!!! What an ugly thing.... i'm speachless.
[G1 General] jordanjay29:
Who's they? Cite your sources.
[G1 General] Blackman778g:
Have You Heard About This?

What about the Inbrics M1? It has a full 5 row keyboard and d-pad... Look it up if you need more info

Yess!!! My Prayers Have Been Answered!!!

http://g2.t-mobile.com/

Question is are you getting it?
[G1 General] jordanjay29:
If it is indeed the Vision, yes. My upgrade date is Nov 26 and this comes out on Sept 29. A bit of a wait, but at least it's not 3-9 months old by that time. (*cough* Vibrant *cough* Nexus One *cough*)
[G1 General] DonDizzurp:
you guys arent feelin the htc espresso/mytouch 3g slide?

amazing phone..

3.4 inch screen (not too big not too small)

3.5mm jack, 5mp camera with flash, full qwerty keyboard, hardware buttons including a hardware camera shutter button, sleek design (could be slimmer though)...

and it still uses this old processor... but with 512mb ram, it FLYS...

theres so much more to it. its a perfect phone if you 1. dont do anything so big and crazy on your phone that requires serious graphics and 2. dont have a billion dollars to spend on a device
[G1 General] jordanjay29:
Your two reasons alone explain why it's not the perfect phone for me. But besides that, I'm not "feeling" the HTC Expresso. Neither the myTouch branding nor the T-Mobile skin on top of HTC skin (literally, T-Mobile skinned Sense, as weird as that sounds) pique my interest.

Namely, it uses an older processor, still has the cramped 320x480 resolution and the form factor makes me think of the Sidekicks. Blech!
[G1 General] :
Gizmondo Pics and Specs!? Maybe!?

have you read this?http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2010/09/t-mobiles-g2-gets-its-official-specs-and-photos-leaked/
[G1 General] Icebergxx:
I read it's going to have HTC Sense, and I have my doubts about that, as far as calling the sanp dragon an old processor, isn't the g1's like 5 years old? You guys are brash.

I don't think I care too much for the "G2" for many reasons, but whatever I need a phone that doesn't lag and would appreciate the hard (5 row) keyboard.
[G1 General] jordanjay29:
Are you even looking at the photos? Does that look like Sense? No, it's vanilla flavored Froyo Android.

As far as the processor, it's been heavily hinted at (meaning that certain reputable individuals have found this in the leaked ROM files) that the processor will be Qualcomm's next generation MSM7X300 series chip. In other words, it'll rival Samsung's Hummingbird CPU and outpace the N1/Incredible/Desire's Snapdragon chip.
[G1 General] androidcues:
I am all over this phone. I am first in line here. Even have my new avatar set up... (just had to go down to the next level in the garage... the G2 level...luckily this place has 5 levels so I should be set through the G5.)
[G1 General] Ace42:
Forget about the N1,Evo,incredible,desire,etc...They are obsolete in the presence of the G2, the Gpu alone has 4X the performance of one of those dragons.
[G1 General] Chocolicious:
This will be my first dip into the Android pool as I have sat back and watched, waiting on a device I thought worthy to spend the money on.

I am a former Win Mobile fanboy and I have not felt the same since my last one the Touch Diamond. I have gone through all the iPhone generations and also through all the high end Blackberries but miss the openness of Win Mobile. From reading, Android is the closest thing so I cannot wait for this G2 baby and all its HSPA+ goodness!

I am from the UK but working in the States now so no credit to get a contract, which I think is a good thing otherwise I might have been stupid enough to jump on Verizon or AT&T's extortionate plans. I have been on T-Mobs month by month plan using my Blackberry 9700 but with the G2 I will be able to use it as a hotspot so I can use my iPhone 3GS on Wi-Fi and enjoy the best of all worlds.

well instead of the mytouch slide, i ended up getting the motorola milestone.

very good decision, i just dont like how the keyboard isnt spaced correctly.. but the milestone 2 fixes that...

Properly spaced convex keyboards are win. Samsung and Motorola need to learn from the master (HTC).

Hello to erverybody outthere,

I have a little, annoying Problem.

Vodafone Germany needs a Proxy so i could use Connections "MyISP",

because theres no Proxy entry. So i made an new connection and named it "Vodafone". Till heres everythings fine. I could use Active Sync, Internet and so on.

....but my AudibleAir(a Program) needs the "MyISP" Entry, because "The Internet" (Auto Connection) is pointing to it. So ....

1. Is there a regkey to point "The Internet" to "Vodafone" ?

2. or is there a regkey to set under "MyISP" a proxy ?

3. or iam a stupid idot and ..... ? :)

Pls, could some one help me out.

ThX in advance

MrFritzle
[HD2 General] Blistz:
Hi guys/Girls

Hope you can help and point me in the right direction.

I performed a ROM update on my phone earlier today following your extreamly helpful guides.

But now I have a problem the 3G/HSDPA (I dont get any atall), where as normally i would be on HSDPA while sat at my desk in work, now i get a very poor GPRS reception.

I Understand this is something to do with the Radio Version?

Country UK

Provider O2

Model HTC HD2

OS Versiob 5.2.21868

Manila Version 2.5.19211619.0

ROM Version: 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE

ROM date 01/11/10

Radio Version: 2.06.51.07

Proticol Version 15.30.50.07U

What version should I be applying/where should I get it form? And is it just a case of running an EXE like it was with the ROM update (after applying the HSPL, which i have already done).

Thanks in advance for any help you can give :) Ive found this site extreamly helpfull so far, and I'm sure you can help me out here aswell.
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
I had the same issue because the o2 ROM sets you up just before Windows launches after a ROM update, or hard reset. The stock ROM is network independent so it doesnt do this.

Anyway, go to Start/Settings/Menu/All Settings/Connections/Connection setup, then just choose UK and O2 respectively.

I hope that helps.
