Hello,

I want to flash my device with 1.66.707.1 rom. I can't download it via HTC official page.

Now I have few questions. According to that I couldn't download it from HTC official page in my country because I've got inappropriate S/N. May I install it on my radio if I supply good (fake) S/N to official HTC page?

I even didn't tray to do this because I'm afraid I can turn my HD2 a into brick.

I don't care about language. I think that after flashing ROM I can download a proper language pack.

Greats.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
invalid serial means your phone is vendor locked. (eg t mobile, vodafone or whatever)

even if you download using a different serial the upgrade will fail saying "vendor id mismatch" or something similar.

in theory you need to wait for your vendor to release the update, however in reality installing hspl will allow you to instal the update without getting the error.

go read the hspl threads.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] y0yster:
Easy to sey :).

It's my first Windows Mobile based phone. I've never installed rom, and yet a cooked one.

I've have some bugs about which I've read on this forum. Those are:

* lack of virtual keyboard while creating a new text message (or any app which need it)

* error while starting digital camera.

All of that disappear after soft reset. That's why I want to install the newest rom.

To not start a new thread is there any way to find out if the rom which I downloaded from HTC suits to my phone? S/N is correct. If I start RUU it will start flashing my device, yes?

Another question. Is it true that every HTC Leo has 576MB RAM but it is locked down?

once HSPL is installed you can download an official WWE ROM from this thread and run it as if it were an official ROM for your phone...

As EddyOS stated, go read my flashing guide THOROUGHLY!!

1. Install HardSPL on your device (best done using WindowsXP or Windows7 32bit).

2. Download the Rom you require from the download site provided and flash using the instructions provided in my guide.

3. Enjoy your new phone :)

Once you have HardSPL on your phone it will be protected from bad flashes and you will be able to flash stock or custom roms or radios as and when you require. HardSPL is definitely reccommended as it has probably saved hundreds of phone from being turned into paperweights when flashing a bad rom or flashing incorrectly.

If you want to try a custom rom then I would definitely recommend the one in my signature but its totally upto you what you decide to put on your device.

With regards to the 576MB Ram it does seem that its actually accessible but only using the newer 2.02 Roms with specific Radios. This has been tested and verified. It wont be accessible on a 1.66 stock rom though.

Hello,

I tried to flash my device witch rom which is on htc official page.

When I was flashing something went wrong and on 24% upgrade have broken. I did what was write on the program but all the time I have 4 strips red, green, blue and white. Before I turn on the device I have sign of warning.

What I have to do now? Is my phone dead now?

Please answer as soon as you can.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tomasz:
- What ROM were you trying to flash and what ROM version (and language) do you have on your device?

- Is your device Branded?

- Did you flash HSPL?

- Did you see a progress bar on screen when flashing, or just the colored bars?

- When you get to the tricolor-screen (bootloader) and you connect to your PC, does it say USB after a few seconds, or does it say Serial?

- What went wrong at 24%? Did you unplug the phone, did your system crash, or were you just being inpatient?

If you answer the above questions, someone may be able to help you. Also, start by reading the stickies.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] y0yster:
Rom was 1.48.479.1 and I wanted to replace it with 1.48.479.1 because some bugs were annoying me which I mentioned earlier.

Yes my device is branded but it doesn't have simlock.

No I didn't used HSPL because I downloaded rom from HTC using my own original S/N.

When I was flashing I saw brogress bar with HTC logo.

I have those tri-colour screen when I power on the device, but before that I have warning triangle. No it doesn't say Serial nor USB.

What went wrong. I swear I don't know. No, no, no I wasn't impatient. After it hanged on 24% I got error message from the program on PC with UPGRADE ERROR. I've tried to resume like the program said me. But without any effect. What I did was unplug; put aut battery; wait 3 seconds; put battery in; power on and plug in. I'm sure that I was doing everything right because I was following the program.

If you have questions regarding rom or hardspl flashing please ask in the correct thread.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
if,when you put your serial into htc website, it doesn't allow you to download, then you MUST use hspl to flash an unbranded rom.

@y0ystet. your phone is branded. sim lock its not connected to vendor lock.instal hspl and try again, same rom.

@lakhbeer, did you flash hspl first? more detail please, messed up? doesn't work?

@rayman your phone is vodafone locked.

I repeat, the htc website doesn't accept your serial, you are provider locked and that is not connected to sim lock/unlock.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] y0yster:
I sent an e-mail to HTC about that. They said I can send the phone to them.

I found sth out. If I hold the volume down and connect the usb cable I have a message on my screen. On screen which have three colours on green I have: "Upgrade Rom code error. Please try again" And on the white I have: "Serial".

Is there anything I can do about that?

But don't say me to flash witch the HSPL. I won't do that on two reasons:

I've never do that

If I send it to service I'll void my warranty.

What would you suggest to do?

[Hero CDMA General] blulitespecial:
I've been trying to get anything to recognize my Hero on my PC for the past few days.

What I've tried:

Installing HTC Sync

Installing Android SDK

Installing the HTC HERO DIAG drivers

Doing ##DIAG# and not doing it.

...And all different combinations of those. The problem is I can't get QPST, CDMA Workshop, UniCDMA, or QXDM, etc to recognize it. The Hero synced to the HTC Sync a couple times, but nothing else. It won't even assign a COM port on the computer.

The phone is also rooted, which, I wouldn't think would make much difference, but I'm running out of ideas here.

Any help is really appreciated.
[Hero CDMA General] Mr. Biggz:
Did you install the regular HTC drivers ? Go to your device manager and see if it says android phone when its plugged in if its there tell it to update driver and point it to the folder called HTC drivers located in the HTC sync program directory.
[Hero CDMA General] blulitespecial:
I tried to do that but the driver wizard said that it could not find any drivers that were better than the ones already installed. (or something to that effect)

EDIT: Ah! I don't know what happened but it appeared on COM5 as "HTC Diagnostic Interface". That may be what I needed. We'll see.
[Hero CDMA General] Darkshneider:
I get the same thing, says "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date."

"HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface" <--???
[Hero CDMA General] Tramline:
Exactly the same for me.

Device not recognized, Remove and reinstall HTC Sync and manually selecting drivers, Device wiping and trying again, using a different USB port, using a different cable, reinstalling windows!!!!!, using a different computer, Pulling out my hair!!!!!

Nothing works!!!

However, It did used to ask for mounting and unmounting the SD when plugged in but it has NEVER found HTC sync on my PC.

Now, all I get is Charging battery on the Hero and device not recognized on the PC.

Device manager politely tells me "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)"

My system is Windows 7 X64 and my Hero Has run both the shipped ROM and now a cooked 2.1.

Please help me!

I have never been able to sync my Hero on any of my Win7 machines. I have been able to sync sporadically with my work XP Pro SP3 machine though. However, since flashing the AOSP 1.6 rom, HTC sync isn't recognizing my phone anymore. I can however mount the SD card.

Problems connecting Evo to PC

Same problem, but on EVO... Anyone ever figure it out??:confused:

I should elaborate I suppose lol... Everything *worked* fine, and then suddenly, appearantly for no reason, it just stopped... Device manager now calls the HTC diag driver an unknown usb device and gives the same warning message as above. And when I try to update the driver, gives the same message about it being up to date...

I have not been able to get ADB to work on my phone since the first time I flashed 2.2, when plugged in it will do the "do you want to turn on usb storage" message and it works fine.

You all might want to try installing the android adb drivers. Its a well know issue with the htc drivers. If you click on my avatar and go to my post you can find my thread on how to install adb on windows 7 32/64 and xp. Adb works fine for me and sync as well. The adb drivers might help out. Well good luck.

[Hero CDMA General] ngholson:
more than likely it is your usb cable has been damaged.

i had the same problem, i went to my provider and got a new usb cable for it. (they gave it to me for free, no questions) no more problems at all, works like a charm.

i still have the old cable too, it will not recognize the hero on the computer. in fact if i plug the cable in without the phone, the cable itself actually comes up and says unrecognized device. but it works great for charging.

Hi guys,

I've Htc Hero with me, I've a little bit problem with my device which is i can't even set my yahoo mail. I've tried manually set but still can't go through and it come out an error "Authentication Failed, Check ur username or password". My username and password are correct and also i've tried on htc magic as well, same problem.

This is the setting that i set:

Any solution?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanPratt:
I have read loads of stuff about this on various forums, some people say that you can change your mail settings in Yahoo (on a computer) so the preffered content setting is set to 'Yahoo! Asia' rather than 'Yahoo!UK' this will then allow POP forwarding... Other than that you can always upgrade to a Yahoo! Mail Plus account?!?!

Personally, this really annoys me that they expect you to pay for an account just to forward emails!!!:mad:

I would just use another account - Gmail/Hotmail...etc..

Apparently though, the above is supposed to work ok, but then it can stop working after a time. Good luck:)

Well, it's working just like u thought me. thanks man. Just change to "yahoo asia" then enable the POP & Forwarding option. ^.^:) arigato gozaimasu.

Has anyone had a problem after appying HTC's new ROM upgrade where the text in the text editor is now HUGE - so much so it overlaps and you can't read it, even on 'smallest'? I've tried asking HTC via their support page but it bombs out before sending the email (of course)...:confused:

Apologies if this has been covered before but I couldn't find it by searching...
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
By 'text editor' i assume you mean the sms/text message page?

Yes, it has been covered loads of times, though there doesn't seem to be a fix for it.

(Well, appart from forget about old texts, clear them out and move on with life!)

All,

I've rebuild this rom from scratch over the past few weeks.

IMAGES COMING SOON

So, to the ROM:

As of now, the rom uses the Nexus One style Launcher 2, which runs incredibly quickly.

First of all, the battery should be better with this rom. I've modified some settings (such as scan intervals, etc) which should help the battery life. Please feed back on this.

WORKING LIST:

Gmail PUSH

Google NAV (Inside & Outside of the US)

Calls – perfectly

OpenGL 3D

Launcher 2 (Select Launcher instead of HOME on boot)

2G, 3G & HSDPA (inc. indicators)

Wifi

Bluetooth file transfer (yup!)

Network location

Accelerometer

Trackball & lighting of

LED indicator

GPS & AGPS

SOME Live wallpapers - Very few though

Gallery 3D

Market (all apps, inc protected)

Camera at 2-3mp

Keyboard with (accurate) Voice Search

Known Issues:

Camera above 3mp

Bluetooth Audio during calls

Facebook contact sync doesn’t work – as will all AOSP builds (there are plenty of apps on the market that’ll do this)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Run a Nandroid backup

2. FULL WIPE

3. Flash Vanillain1.1

4. Flash Update1.1b (ESSENTIAL, AS IT INCLUDED GOOGLE STUFF!!!)

DOWNLOAD LINKS:

Vanillain 1.1 (4Shared)

Vanillain 1.1b Incremental

I work incredibly long hours on these roms. If you like my work, please consider making a small donation. Thank you for your support!

As I have neglected Vanillain dev quite a lot recently, I'd like to thank QR for his mini-update. Please see the quote below:

Hello,

I'm using the HTC Mega for a while. I experience a small problem when using IGO8. Because i'm mostly on a motor bike i want to dim or disable the screen and continue the navigation. Does anybody know a application to do this? I searched on the internet but was unable to find it.

Regards
[Touch2 General] gazzacbr:
try in igo8 - menu>settings>device ( on page 2) there are options to use the device power amangement.

OR, if it is a battery life thing, i am (well was, as bike is gone now :( ) also motor bike user and i bought from local bike shop a lead. on one end was 2 crocodile clips, then a fuse, then a standard cigarette lighter socket. you can then use a normal 'lighter to usb' wire and have it charging with the screen on all the time.

Hi All

First of all let me say I'm amazed at you guys continuing to make Android available for such an old device as the Vogue, but let me tell you it's made my life with the little b**** a lot more bearable (coming from an iphone, having to use the vogue for work is terrible).

Anyway, you can probably see where my question is leading -

Exchange support - I have got email syncing with exchange no problem - but what's the story with Contacts syncing - this is vital for me to be able to use Android permanently - I want to flash to nand, but can't do that when I need to revert to winmo to get my contacts.

CDMA data speeds -under winmo when you flash the radio you need to re-enter your HDR auth details to get full EVDO data speed - there's no option for this in Android (is there) so am I stuck with 1x data in Android?

Cheers for your help!
