[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
Here is what you need to do

adb shell
cd sdcard
flash_image recovery xxxxxxxxxxxx.img
reboot recovery

You should not need to remount, but if you need to or for future reference you type in adb remount from the command prompt and not in adb shell

Read an earlier post, download the file and do what the post instructs. You need the flash_image file on your phone
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LARPkitten:
Mine says "remount failed: Operation not permitted" when I try to remount.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
If you are in recovery and trying this you do not need to remount. If you are booted into Android try

adb shell
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

you might also replace /dev/block/mtdblock3 with /dev/mtd/mtd1

and then chmod
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ladyemmy:
I am having this problem as well.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asadullah:
Okay if your having a problem with the ole "flash_image not found" saying do this open up command prompt and type

adb shell
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

then open up another command prompt with the old one still running and type this

adb push flash_image /bin
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/bin/flash_image

Now you should be good to flash your recovery
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
I'm getting all the same errors everyone else on here is getting. Is flash_recovery a file that is required? I don't mean the .img file, but is it some kind of command file?
[HD2 General] dafecruz:
I just recently bought a tmobile htc hd2 from ebay and plan on using it on vorgin mobile (which i believe uses bell's network).

As i understand, bell uses a HSPA+ (850 Mhz) connection, which this phone is not compatible. But i have been doing some searching and i found the phone specs on gsmarena whcih state that the american version has HSDPA 850.

I was wondering if there was any possibility that the phone will work on Virgin Mobile 3G or any way I can get it to work (unless it is just a hardware limitation)

Thanks in advance
[HD2 General] 10332007:
The US T-Mo HD2 is hardware limited to different frequencies;

GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

WCDMA/HSPA: 1700 MHz (AWS) / 2100 MHz

So it should get edge no problem but 3g..... :(

Now the Telstra version which has the 850 band would work in theory.
[HD2 General] dafecruz:
So it will at least work with virgin? Because if 3 g doesn't work I could wait till later in 2010 when wind mobile expands to my area and I believe wind should work correct?
[HD2 General] droidrage:
Check pdaplaza.ca

I got an HD2 from them last week. I'm on Rogers, and 3G/HSDPA work perfectly. I'm not sure about Bell.

I believe mine is an unlocked Telstra version. The T-Mobile version doesn't do 3G on 850 as far as I understand.
[HD2 General] dafecruz:
how much did it end up costing with shipping and all?
[HD2 General] ArpX:
Hi!

I just got a HD2 here in the US. I am just visiting and my old phone, the HTC Touch HD died 2 days ago, so I bought the HD2 here.

Can you please assure me that it will work in Germany? :)

I think it will, because in Germany we use 900 / 1900 as GSM Frequency, as far as I know.

Can you please help? Thanks.
[HD2 General] pastorhur:
Hi I've been using HD2 for a month now. But from the first moment I bought it

I had issues with it.. I would have connection for sometime, but after a couple of hours I loose connection and I have reset the wireless connection

then it works.. Don't really know what's the problem,

I got a new Rom, but continue to have the same prob..

Could anyone help me.. I don't know whether its the phone or the T-Mob!!!

Thank you so much guys.. you are my only hope.. :confused:
[HD2 General] KidTech:
Your not the one its been happing to me a lot.....I believe most of problems are with Sense U.I HTC to me is a terrible manufacture now. Supposedly T-mobile is working on a software fix and it should be out and fix all these problems..Until then were going have to deal with it..

I'm actually trying many times to install Andoird on my Touch Pro. but I just got stuck whenever I run Haret then it freezes.

I try to read through many posts here but it seems there's no similar situation. and I even did exact same thing like the Youtube Tutorial did. But I still got it failed.

Mine is:

Hello.

I have a problem when i install android on my htc touch pro.

I manage to install it but when to start it he remains at the wellcome movie.

What i need to do ? I've used search on this forum but didn't find any answer or question on this.

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Try blasting out your data.img and booting again.

If this doesn't work, run a build from 3.31 or older, and drop your data.img from that build in to the folder for the new build.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Apocalypse487:

How long should it take to install android?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
How long to install...? It's just copying files to your SD card so a few minutes maybe?

Now how long to boot is another story. If you're getting a boot loop, try updating your rootfs. If that doesn't help, delete your data.img and try haret.exe. If you're still stuck, post back here what is hanging you up.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] whitter0313:
I am stuck at the set up. It is as though my screen does not work. It keeps saying to touch droid to begin and everytime I try to touch it it goes into emergency call or language (the two bottom options). What should I do?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Sounds like you have a bad calibration. Delete the ts-calibration file at the root of SD (or wherever you launch haret.exe from) and try to boot again. Watch the boot process! There's a calibration section that if you don't do it, the touchscreen won't work properly.

Hi,

Is there a way to obtain Android OS logs?

Things like shutdown log (turn off) ... I want to know what happen during shutdown, because most of the time, my phone cannot be turned off ...

I must pull out the battery.

This only happen after I use the phone for longer hours.

And no, I dont use task killer at all ... and does not install background apps.

No auto sync, no mobile data.

how do you send somebody someones number?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
simply text them the number or in your text messaging window (depending on what version of sense you are running) you'll see an option to send an MMS or something... in there you can send a vCard.. which is just sending them someones contact information that is stored on your phone. When the person recieves the vcard they open it up and are given the option to save it to their own phone. It will give them everything you have.. the persons phone numbers, address', email address' etc etc
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Penguin_02:
is there an easier way. like just sending them the number?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
Yes, just go to the contact you want to send, then in menu select send to button

and then select the info from that contact you want to include on the message

It´s very easy
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mstevens:
Sure - just send them the number.

What are you actually asking here?

How

to send them a number? One way would be to tap in the phone number as a text and send it, but I suspect you're actually asking a different question.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Penguin_02:
I want to know how to send somebody another persons number in a text.

I tried

going to the person's number that i want to sell. then going to menu, pressing "send contact by message" when i try to send it that way it doesnt work.

in the message field when i try sending it that way "the contact information you have selected from 'name' will be send to the recipient of this message"

i want to know an easier way where it just send the number in the text field.

vcard method doesn't seem to work either.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dik23:
Yeah, I know what you mean. Even the cheapest handset in the world makes it easy to insert a number into a sms.

I was trying this the other day and it's not as simple as you might think or as it should be.

The only option I have is to send it as a mms, which is not included in my contract. There's no option to insert a number whilst editing a sms. Stupid really, you would have thought that an OS that's promoted as being business friendly would make it easy no send contact details.

ANOTHER reason my next handset will be Android
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Penguin_02:
i dont know what the pluses for having an android. can anyone tell me?

isnt an android rom being developed for our phone?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] burtonsnow8:
Android is just a different operating system. Its not really a ROM, but more of a hack. It unloads windows mobile and loads up android OS. Pretty simple, just copy the files to your SD card, load the .exe and wait for android to load.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Penguin_02:
what are the perks to having the android? it seems like its better than windows mobile.

can someone tell me the difference? and the pos, and negs of both.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] da9th_one:
yes...yes we can...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
off topic much! :P

Do some reading in the android subforum and you'll learn ALL about it!

Regarding your question about texting a person a number.. "it's not as simple as you might think or as it should be" It really isnt that difficult. I dont know why you guys are having issues.

When you open the persons contact you want to text to select the menu option, select "reply with MMS"... You said it wasnt an option but it IS there. Then when that opens select menu again then select "Attachment..." then select Menu AGAIN :P

click "Add vCard" a list of contacts will pop up, select the person you want.. it will attach, click ok then click send. Done and done..

NOW.. you want a REALLY easy way to send a number to someone.. go to the contact of the person you want to text... go to where you write a text message.. pop out the keyboard and TYPE the number in... then press send !!!!!

Also... Android doesnt make it any more simple to do this. I have the 2.1 version running on my phone as well and.. yeah just about the same really.

Hi,

Currently with my HD2, if I want to acccess Vodafone live, I have to change the connection settings to WAP adn then back again if I want to browse normally.

What I want to do is setup each browser to use a seperate gateway.

Standard Internet Gateway for Opera, and WAP for IE. I can't find a way to set this and I figured there could be a reg hack to set this.

Any suggestions.

Thanks in Advance:eek:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] :
This should be good enough, But everyone knows that if there are any errors b00n can find them, No idea how they come up wiht half the stuff they do.

This is a decent tool, that will do a lot more for everyone.

Spent the afternoon, trying everything I could think of to try and make it crash, and most of the issues have been fixed, I could not get anything else to go wrong with it, so we will have to see how it all works in the end.

Thanks Da_G - but I get an error on my Windows 7 x64 system - what am I missing??

[Windows Mobile Software Development] Da_G:
Hi d_train!

Sorry, I put that in my post, but it's pretty small. I'll make it bigger, to be more clear! VS2010 is a recent release and so these files are installed on almost no machines right now :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TAEL:
Well done Da_G,

This is a great tool and here is my report of using it.

Original used NBH : Raphael O2 UK 5.12.206.1 ROM

First I tried to dump it via "1dump_nbh" and it worked without any errors and in ~1 second. 4 NB files created successfully: OS, Radio, SPL, Splash.

Here is the output XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<!--This document describes the contents of your NBH file. The IncludedInNBH attribute can be used to include (1) or exclude (0) that item from your final NBH-->
<NBHFile ModelID="RAPH12000" CID="O2___001" Version="5.12.206.1" Language="USA" DataChunkSize="64">
<ItemList>
<Item IncludedInNBH="0" ItemID="0x301" FileName="radio.nb" />
<Item IncludedInNBH="0" ItemID="0x200" FileName="spl.nb" />
<Item IncludedInNBH="0" ItemID="0x600" FileName="splash.nb" />
<Item IncludedInNBH="1" ItemID="0x400" FileName="os.nb" />
</ItemList>
</NBHFile>

Then, I tried to rebuild them via "2build_nbh". Yes, It worked great again and 2 NBH files are created in ~4 seconds. (included OS.NB only). And finally, I tried to edit XML to include all NB files and process completed successfully in ~10 seconds. (writing NBH and signing took ~3-4 seconds).

Tested in Windows 7 x86 (32bit) without installing any libraries and runtimes. (I'm using VS2010 and I think they were installed before.)

</NBHFile>

So do I assume that if I wanted to replace the splash screens I enable 0x600, 0x610 and 0x611?

Is there a utility that allows me to view and or convert WVGA splashscreen nb files?

Thanks again Da_G

DT
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Da_G:
Yes, if you wanted to replace the splash screens you would enable the IncludedInNBH attribute for those items.

You would need to dump these .nb splash files to an editable format (such as .bmp) to work with them, and then re-create the .nb file to feed into the build function, in order to replace them in the final .nbh.

I will soon look at incorporating an automatic .nb HTC Splash Image Converter, to aid with replacing these splash images easily. I think the tool "nbimg" by pof may be able to work with them, for the time being. It accepts manual parameters for the width and height of the image. If it doesn't work, please let me know if you find or know of a tool that does, and I will update the first post until I can program a function for this tool to handle it. Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] d_train:
Thanks Da_G - found the nbimg tool and it was able to convert the splash.nb file to bmp, but not the unknownsplash1.nb and unknownsplash2.nb files

Thanks again for your ongoing contribution to these forums

Hi,

Which are the advantages os this utility compared to nbhutil from olipro?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] makeveral:
good job Da_G! gonna try it later.

thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] airxtreme:
NBHUtil and HTCRT need configuration files provided by other users that often lack support for new devices and are incomplete/inaccurate. This utility instead can make its own building configuration file from the NBH itself so you can rebuild any NBH without having to desperately search for the correct configuration file that supports your device.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] hartv427:
Thank you for this Da_g your work is always appreciated

Excellent tool works flawlessly

Transaction ID: 5LV66560PR5951831
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Da_G:
@mac_es:

As airxtreme already stated, one of the bigger drawbacks of previous tools is that you had to come up with a configuration file somewhere. This one will automatically generate one from any ROM for your device. This has the advantage of picking up on any ItemIDs that we hadn't previously seen in a ROM or didn't exist until recently (like radiocust, radioconf)

I'm working with l3v5y to add another nice feature, automatic dumping of a splash screen .nb to .bmp, and then automatic rebuilding of the splash screen .nb from the .bmp (i'll probably add a flag to the xml for that auto rebuild from bmp) - this way you can work directly on the .bmp and avoid unneccessary conversions every time you make an edit to it.

I'm looking at making a routine to pull the radio.nb version out too, and store it in the xml, just for informational purposes.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] rgb-rgb:
Very nice work Da_G. Really appreciate the time and effort you put into doing this stuff for us.

Just one question, now that we have this tool for getting the .nbh, what is a good option for us at the moment to get the packages extracted from the .nbh?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Da_G:
xidump from Bepe is a fine tool for this, it can work directly with the os.nb, and output directly from it.

Unfortunately it has no build support yet, that is my next target, to replace NBImageTool with a new version that handles dumping and building :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] ai6908:
Awesome!:D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TehPenguin:
Found something, its not so much a bug as something that needs to be noted in the "documentation"

When building, NBHImageTool needs to be run from its own folder, otherwise you get an "CreateProcessW failed (2)" error

So...

Works: .\NBHImageTool.exe -build ..\dump ..\build device.xml

Error: ..\tools\NBHImageTool.exe -build ..\dump . ..\tools\device.xml

(I presume this is because it creates multiple instances of itself?)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] twopumpchump:
i think its because imagehash.exe has to be in cd, the error is when it tries to sign nbh. i notice you left out a param on your command, shouldnt you have it like this or am i missing something?

..\NBHImageTool.exe -build ..\pathto_nb ..\pathto_nbh ..\pathto_xml

or

cd ..\

NBHImageTool.exe -build pathto_nb pathto_nbh pathto_xml
