[General Questions and Answers] elijahblake:
thank you a lot... This is exactly what I was sort of thinking, but I really didn't know exactly what the ROM's did or didn't do. I believe you're 100% correct though he just thinks winmo is too complicated, and he says the phones always doing things he doesn't want it to (which i figure is his fault) or he just hasn't had it long enough.

My advice to him was to wait until June and see what the new iphone was going to be like, and hopefully by then AT&T will have the nexus one or some variant. Seems like I've been waiting forever for AT&T to get a good android device.

Thanks again
[General Questions and Answers] poetryrocksalot:
Yeh, I hate it when WinMo aficionados tell people that ROM's make Windows phones so much better, and act like it will always help the user experience.

As a result of this, there's always some one else posting threads complaining that they made a stupid purchase, and blaming other people and Microsoft.

Then the flame war happens. It's so stupid, but it always happen.

But please do tell what your friend always do with his phone. Does he listen to music? Browse the web? Organize his calendar?

If you love the sense ui look as much as I do, then you should download "PandaHero - Hero Style Home" listed below. This is not my app and I take no credit for the amazing work of the developer, Honeybee Apps. I have attached a screen shot to get a better understanding of why this is needed. For the first time, the buttons at the bottom actually function like they do with sense ui. The left for apps, center for phone, right for settings. Absolutely must have app for anyone who loves hero themes. Of course to get the full feel, you will have to metamorph/theme the status bar and icons.

sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place...

I'm very new to android, but I recently played with a friend's G1 running Android 2.1 and fell in love with the OS, and now I want to put Android (don't really care which version, anything is better than WinMo 5) onto my Palm Treo 750 on the AT&T network. what would I need to know in order to accomplish this?

Because my contract is up in a little under a month, I do not mind if I brick my phone that much - I can just switch back to my old Treo 650 until I can get a new phone dirt cheap when I renew.

I'm even willing to try out an experimental code that someone is trying to debug.

My one restriction is because I'm running 64-bit Windows 7, I can't directly sync my phone with my computer, I have to be able to run the upgrade to Android from a 2Gb Micro SD card.

So any suggestions?

and thanks in advance,

Odin

You could try to download and follow the instructions on: AndroidOnHtc.

I had luck just trying to HaRET.exe on different versions.

I wouldn't however ditch the CE 5.0 just yet. Without official handset manufacturer support it is unlikely to get all the features working.

Here is a List of features I have seen not working on some devices:

WiFi (actually on most)

GPS

Sound (for example on the touch pro 2)

Bluetooth (not that I care)

Screen resolution (especially if just using a Bundle designed for a different device.)

Let us know how you get on. So far I have only seen it running on HTC devices. So good luck.
[Android Software Development] Odin5061:
Don't use WiFi, GPS, or Blue Tooth, so all I have to really worry about (other than bricking) is sound and screen resolution.

As for only working HTC phones, from what I've read, the Treo 750 is essentially a re-packaged HTC phone - though I cannot remember which one they cited.

Thanks, I'll check out that link and keep everyone appraised is I manage to get it up and running.

HI everybody...

A friend of mine has a HTC Touch that was working ok..

It is branded Rogers and it was locked to that company..

The story is that he gave it to someone to unlock it. But the man returned him still locked.. But with an issue..

Everytime you insert a SimCard the phone reboots (even the one from ROGERS), without the simcard the phone works just fine..

I already did many hard resets. And once when the phone reboots it ask me for a subsidy code wich I already had and I unlocked the phone, and it worked ok until I turn it off to see if the problem still persist and it did..

Now the phone is unlocked but everytime I insert a SIMCARD (even the one from ROGERS) the phone reboots...

All the story is to see if someone knows what the other guy did???

What could cause the phone to reboot with a SIM CARD???

IT HAS

IPL 2.21.0002

SPL 2.21.0000

Model ELF101

THANKS A LOT and BEST REGARDS!!!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] specialdo:
Hello everyone,

I write because I have a little problem.

I have a Qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard) and installed the ITALIAN ROM IWT MAMELI, so I have windows mobile 6.1.

values are IPL 2.26 and SPL 2:26 so I have a G3 upgrade to version 6.x Windows Mobile.

now I want to install a clean version of Windows Mobile 6.5 (this version), unfortunately I found it only in English but I will try it. I always download and opening the rar archive, I found one file:

nk.nbf

Shocked

How do I update the ROM? What do I need? I tried to google a bit but I swear that I have not found anything. the only thing I understood is that the NBF file see language on the ROM of the phone and if doesn't correspond to the language of the ROM that I want, the upload stop.

now I have the Italian on the wizard, while I should put one in English! What should I do?

please help me .. I hope in your help!

When I upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.1, I used a rom with .exe format, so I installed everything with a double click..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] costyg:
download RUU from the attachments. Copy nk.nbf in the RUU 2.5.2 folder. After that run romupdateutility.exe

You should read more here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard%20Windows%20Mobile%206%20for%20newbies
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] specialdo:
Thanks a lot!!

I have already read the wiki but it doesn't speak how to install rom having NBF file. I followed the wiki when I installed Windows Mobile 6.1.

Now I know that I can install the 6.5 because I have IPL and SPL 2.26.

But if I have an italian ROM with Italian language and NBF file contains an English rom, I can upload the new rom? or freeze?

thanks.:)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] costyg:
It shouldn't matter what language you had. The new rom language will replace the old one.

[Droid Eris Android Development] zifnab06:
I'm posting this up here so everyone can see it and doesn't have to go through threads to see it.

If this 2.1 update is legit, there is a way to grab the OTA update. \

Essentially what you will need to do is decline the update when your phone asks you about it.

Run this command on your computer with the SDK installed and adb set up:

adb -d logcat UpdateReceiver:I CheckinService:I *:S

Post the link that is returned.

As a note - I'll throw this in my signature for now as well.

2.1 will be difficult if not impossible to downgrade from. If you upgrade, and we find root on 1.5, you are out of luck if the exploit has been patched. I think we *should* be able to downgrade the phone, but I also think that it *will* require some technical skills. If you lack these skills, realize you *WILL NOT* get root if we find an exploit that has been patched in 2.1 but not in 1.5.

Simply put: I have every intention of upgrading my phone when this update hits it. But, I also have every intention of finding a way to downgrade it afterwards and keep working on root with 1.5. Then, I'll post a walkthrough for downgrading. More than likely it will involve a goldcard (which sucks to make kind of).

Enjoy, and thanks! Post that link if you get an OTA alert!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macros617:
so this will give us the 2.1 update? question is, will it have the upgraded sense ui? i read on another post not from this site that eris users who upgraded to 2.1 through a mishap with verizon had their phone completely useless.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zifnab06:
if your phone has the option to update, that command will print out a URL of where the OTA update file is located. It should be something like clients.android.google.com/updates/desirec/desirec-ota.(6random numbers).(8 random hex).zip. That will allow the rest of us to get the update before its pushed to our devices.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Framework43:
I have an extra eris, so messege me if you need to try something out. I have Ubuntu installed already.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sickbox:
I'll get that thing up here IF it actually pops. Has VZW been able to clear up if 2.1 is indeed a myth or truth?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zifnab06:

[Droid Eris Android Development] polo2883:

[Droid Eris Android Development] zifnab06:
Verizon just let me know that the current version installed on our phones is 1.17.605.1. I'm being transferred to tech support to fix a network connnection problem I've been having, but after that I'll make sure to ask about the 2.1 update.

Thanks!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macros617:
Yeah i was having network issues yesturday actually. i did a hard reset twice. the internet was working but i couldnt make phone calls or send texts. called verizon as soon as i got home, and they told me there was an issue with the services. had me do some weird stuff but i didnt write it down =/
[Droid Eris Android Development] zifnab06:
2.1 from Verizon:

So, from the mouth of the dragon, verizon told me that "I know the update is coming *soon*, but no official date has been set yet". The Tech Support rep told me that most of the posts I've probably seen online have been fake (sorry, but I actually believe most of them, I want the leaked copy if there is one, or the OTA if it does come out). So, simply put, I'd assume you WILL NOT be getting an OTA in the next few days. But, soon for verizon is better than "soon" for Blizzard :D (Blizzard's definition of soon is sometime between now and the end of the universe, preferably closer to the now side).

Thanks!
[Droid Eris Android Development] jamezelle:
if we were relying on blizzard we wouldnt get 2.1 till 2020:rolleyes:

I got to see an Eris running 2.1 with Sense and some of its neat new enhancements. I also got to see why it's not released yet. Some of the defects aren't too nice. If you manage to get a copy of the update, I would not use it on a device you use actively.

Wait until release. There's a reason it's not being pushed, yet. I can get it now, if I wanted, but it even scares me ;) The person who showed me his device is a developer.

I have no release date. As far as I know, there isn't one, yet. Just "any day now."

Hello to everyone. I first apologize for my english. I have bought a used jamin on ebay, with no warranty and I got problems to connect it to my home wifi: the device finds it; gets ip, mac and other data; but simply can't connect to the wifi. It sits on trying (I had never this problem with more modern devices: Imate 8150 and Nokia n82).

Well, I have also read that it is a very common problem, over all for english rom (mine is italian: ROM 2.13.9.21 ITA

RADIO ROM 4.1.13.15

EXT ROM 2.13.9.111 )

I have understood tha maybe it is a problem of my device and the "G mode" router, so I modified the registry to enable the g mode on Jamin. But it was useless. I started to think that maybe the shortest way is to upgrade to wm6 or 7. What do you suggest me? It could be very risky?

Thank You so much...

Angus

PS

I haven't tried an hard reset, yet, 'coz I Imagine it would be of no use. What's your opinion?

Angus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] wapvirus:
HTC prophet will only support wpa Not wpa2 so you must change your router to support this even if you upgrade the ROM the device will still have this limitation (Some ROMs have wpa2 support but it is buggy and causes crashes) ;)

Em sure it iz da wpa2 issue 'cuz netgear wg602 does not support wpa...

cheers!!!

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] anguscoleman:
O...K! Thank you. This make vanish every hope I had to use my wifi with jamin. There is some very important improvement on newer wm's that could push me to upgrade from wm5? I have seen that with the present ROM the battery last very very long.

I got my case-mate Clear Armor screen/device protector yesterday (fit quite well by the way), and it came with a nice, soft, and thin cleaning cloth. And I realized - I want a case/pocket for my HD2 made of this or similar material. Will not increase thickness, will protect the device, which means perfect for carrying it in my jeans' pocket. It will also clean the device actually, and you could probably even take calls without removing it :)

The case-mate I bought was exactly like this one. However, I'm talking about a simple case/pocket made of thin fabric. Haven't seen anything like that. Maybe I should claim a patent :D

Yeah, this one looks nice, but again doesn't protect the whole device and adds to the size. The invisible shield is better IMO.

Anyway, I'd also like to hear/see/read about the quality of this one :)

My Asus 1000HA's left click button has really gotten un responsive and it's a pain in the ass. [I turned on the mouspad click but that get's in the way, anyway] and since my g1 is always charging on it I figure why not make a usb mouse app?

My g1 is rooted with multi touch and it would be a very simple UI.

Right click, left click squares. then trackball or multi touch to scroll up or down. Figure that there would have to be software installed on my Notebook though, anyone think they could devolop this?

I know Gmote is similar but the fact it has to be on wifi really isn't very pratical for the g1's battery life.
[G1 Apps and Games] Jonno12345:
How about using Gmote while the phones plugged in ;)? Seriously though, I'm sure it's possible as it's possible to tether, I see no reason it couldn't tether and send data. I doubt such an app currently exists, however.
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
Lol cause it takes a lot longer for the phone to charge while using wifi :p

And yea the g1's Sloth multi touch would be great to use for scrolling.
[G1 Apps and Games] protomanez:
...why not just charge it on the wall after using your computer and turning wifi off o_O
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
The point of the request is to turn my g1 into a mouse pad.

I don't need a mousepad to my wall.

And I don't use a wall mount charger anymore, I just charge my notebook from the wall and my g1 from my notebook which works out real well.
[G1 Apps and Games] hiddengopher:
