Put it anywhere, I use a folder called cabs on my sd card. Then, on the phone, browse to the sd card/cabs folder and run the .cab

see your PM
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
o....m....g! I have a folder on my SD card called "cabs"!!! We must be like brothers from another.....continent..? :D

pakistaniprince, that's a good basic housekeeping practice on these types of phones...just keep a folder like that and put any cab you try in there (split into subfolders if you prefer)...only delete any that don't end up being compatible. This way, you'll always have the ones you need handy following any hard-reset, etc ;)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
lol, that and the autoinstal folder, kept in sync with identical folders on the PC,

its just good housekeeping gone bananas!

Fastest way to use .gif for start up and shutdown screens

[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Update

Ive flashed two stock roms tonight, (for a different reason) and it turns out the 2nd splashscreen as mentioned in post 2 doesn't get removed when flashing a stock (or custom, unless the custom also has a 2nd splash, I assume) rom.

I'm not sure how I would go about removing it completely, (say for sending for repair) but I don't want to remove it, so i'll cross that bridge later.

I'm actually posting about the upside of this finding.

Watermarking your leo!

My 2nd boot screen (the RGD one) contains contact info, offering a reward if found, and a note warning anyone buying it that it is stolen.

(I'm considering adding a small photo of me, digital ID anyone? hehe.)

Tested with tmous stock 2.13 nbh using customruu.exe and with O2 UK rom using stock exe
[HD2 General] mfrey0118:
OK, so I got my custom image and I ran the nbimg-1.1 and it successfully converted the image and added a NBH file...NOW WHAT?

I've never flashed a custom ROM, all I have is HSPL3 with stock 2.13...what do I do next? I have a file called customruu.exe that takes me to the ROM flash screen, but how do I know what this is flashing? Does customruu.exe need to be in the same folder? How do I point it to just flashing the startup image and not an actual ROM that I have downloaded to my PC?

UPDATE: Nevermind, I figured it out. The customruu.exe only extracts from the folder it is in...tks anyway guys...
[HD2 General] mfrey0118:
Do you have the cmd.exe commands for the shut down screen?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
that would be part of your actual rom, not a seperate nbh rom.

search your phone for shutdown480x800.gif

It isnt flashable like these startup images are, and it will be lost when you hard reset/flash a new rom.
[HD2 General] pakistaniprince:
See this video!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtPAipJF2AA

THIS HAS THE PROGRAM TO CONVERT YOUR .GIFs .....convert any pic file to BMP for your custom splash sceen... make that 480 x 800 all that good stuff

:) :D ;)
[HD2 General] Cinabnett:
I am trying to convert the pic with NB... and windows brings up a pop up saying nbimg has stopped working suddenly. help?
[HD2 General] cavemaneca:
Just kinda an update for anyone...

This is for anyone just trying to flash a new boot screen...

This will kinda automatically do everything for you if you have a hard time with it normally.

Anyway, to continue on.

1: Download attached Tools.rar, extract files to a new folder on your computer (i.e. "Boot Screen")

2: Find the image you want to use. Make sure it is 480x800. If you want to use another picture and make it the right size, get photoshop/gimp and learn how to use it if you haven't already.

3: If the file is the wrong format (png, jpg, etc) open with Paint, Select "File > Save As..." and under "Save as type:" select 24-bit Bitmap. Save this to your "Boot Screen" folder.

4: Turn off your phone, then while holding 'Volume Down' tap the power button. After you enter the flashing screen, plug into USB.

5: Drag the image to either first.bat or second.bat, depending on which boot screen you're flashing it to.

6: Program will run like normal for flashing, follow prompts and let it finish.

7: After it's done click "Finish", and program will close, deleting extra files.

8: Done! As long as the picture is 480x800 and 24-bit Bitmap dragging any picture straight to the desired .bat will start the process for you, no need to rename files or remember commands.

For any of you who don't know the difference, the first boot screen is the one you see first of course. The second one is the boot screen that displays your radio information and such.

I'm on an iMac and for some reason I'm getting an error performing this procedure via Parallels running Windows 7.

how do i make a shutdown splash screen im on chucky rom but it doesnt have a shutdown ani splash how can i create the reg for the shutdown splash
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Thats a different thing. The shutdown splash is a file in the windows folder called shutdown480-800.gif
[HD2 General] carlospr21:
chucky rom doesnt have shutdown480-800.gif that y im asking how to make it whats the reg for it
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
sorry, when you say "make the reg" for it, do you mean make the image, or the registry entries to make it work?

its not like the bootscreens you don't need any special commands, you just make an animated gif in something like PhotoShop.

as for the registry entries, can't help, you would need to find them in a stock rom and copy them across, maybe.
[HD2 General] carlospr21:
ohhh ok i understand thanks
[HD2 General] elknimrod:
Can't get this to work. First it doesn't start when I drag the file to a .bat. So I click the .bat and it starts, but at the end I get an error 240, can't open the file.

Nor does your process work for everyone. You seem to ignore this, as I posted #49 but never heard a fix. So I had to settle for an incomplete solution that sorta works.

Well here was my first try :D Didn't take long at all one the "bmp" is made
[HD2 General] noobinius:
i flashed the first splash screen and it worked, then i tried flashing the 2nd splash screen, and it did NOT work.

what i did was remove the first splash screen nbh file from the folder with the customruu.exe and put in the 2nd splash screen nbh file in the folder with the customruu.exe and executed customruu.exe and when it was finished and the phone booted nothing had changed. what gives? can anyone help me ?

also, do I HAVE to sacrifice magldr just to replace the second splash screen? this doesn't make any sense, because currently there is a magldr and then a second splash screen. anyone out there know about this?

i also tried tools.rar from this thread, that didn't have any effect either.

How can i set my hd2 to use one of the keys at the botton of my phone to voice record on a double tap of a button while phone is locked.

Cheers

[HD2 General] Riccojames:
Quick press to start voice record

Hi again

Anyone got ANY ideas of how I can use any of the buttons to activate voice record immediately?

I want to be able to use a key press to start record rather then use touch screen.

Regards

Ricco
[HD2 General] elburna:
You can install and create a mort script (start voice recorder, start recording), put it in startmenü and assign it to long press sendkey... but im actually not able to do that as i dont know the exact commands... furthermore it wont work when device is locked (maybe if you use AEButtons Plus for the volume rockers as they are not locked on many ROMs). Good luck, will be complicated...
[HD2 General] Riccojames:
Instant voice record...

Any other ideas of how to make a quick record?

Other Programs?
[HD2 General] fgth90:
perhaps..

Maybe mapping a key (with AE Button Plus for example)

Find the .exe which execute the soft you want and assign it to a key of your phone .

otterbox are the Sh*t when it comes to there cases as you can see on youtube when they run over a iphone with a car and drop it in the water

and otterbox are finally bringing it to the nexus one :)

http://www.otterbox.com/nexus-one-cases/

there are 2 cases

Google Nexus One Impact Series Case

Price: $19.95

and

Google Nexus One Commuter Series Case

Price: $34.95

it look like it dont have screen protection

what you guys think
[Nexus One Accessories] blitz911:
:eek:it's about time!..i have the commuter for my bb9700 and love it...

**just checked and it's not for sale as of yet..

my field of work warrants an otterbox for sure but i want one that is waterproof.

cant have an otter that wont get wet.
[Nexus One Accessories] glitzbd:
cool stuff

I am pretty excited I have never had a phone that Otter made a case for, but my friend has a Defender on his 3Gs and it works for sure! I wish they covered the front of the phone though... I might get the Commuter series, but I already have a Body Glove case and Tough Case from Case-Mate lol

But I signed up to be alerted, because it looks sleek and much stronger than anything I've seen so far!

Edit: The clear film looks like a screen protector for the front! Click on the PDF at the bottom

I'm going to need to see some reviews of this one before buying.

The reason i bought a case-mate tough case is because one person wrote that his nexus one survived a 35 foot drop onto concrete. If this otterbox could do the same and then some, its worth it and i'll buy it. I'll be looking forward to those reviews (and pics) guys. Peace
[Nexus One Accessories] bumskins:
Whats the difference between them?

Looks like the "Impact" one covers more of the phone? but then its also cheaper?
[Nexus One Accessories] 4luk88:

might be for when droped

[Nexus One Accessories] derfasaurus:
I have the impact and the commuter for the iPhone. If they are anything like those:

The impact is a simple silicone case, a very nice hardened silicone that doesn't attract nearly as much dust and grime as your typical case.

The commuter may be one piece or it may be two, its like an impact case (silicone) with a hard plastic shell over it, this means that it slips out of your pocket much easier. It also has plugs to plug up the holes that flip out.
[Nexus One Accessories] dopetastic:
I just got a confirmation email from Otter Box that the Nexus One case is now available.
[Nexus One Accessories] CentralMoNexusOne:
Just put a order in for a commuter case. Shipping was $4.80 for USPS ground. This code gave me 10% ($3.50) off of my order.

amcc0310n (found it here)

I'll post some pictures and a review when it gets here. Anyone have any experience with their screen protectors that comes with the case?
[Nexus One Accessories] kmacks27:
Have seen a few on Iphones they were bubbled. Maybe they didnt install them right. I'm sticking with my amzer screen protector. And using the commander case. I'll have ultimate protection best skin ever, amzer screen protector and otterbox commuter case. SWT :D
[Nexus One Accessories] glitzbd:
Well I will be ordering a Commuter on payday tomorrow, and I hope that 10% off works haha

[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:
Hi All,

Got my HD2 yestreday (unlocked, supposedly, from Ebay).

I cant make or take calls, nor can i send txt's etc. There is an exclamation mark next to the reception indicator(if thats what its called)?

Is it broke? - is it locked? - Is it a stolen phone whicha has somehow been "blocked"?.

Please help guys!
[HD2 General] paulrgod:
Without knowing if it's definitely been unlocked it may just still be locked to it's original network in which case you'd need to buy an unlock code.

If that's the case then no need to worry - however if it's been blacklisted (reported as stolen / lost etc) then it's going to be pretty much useless, but i don't think there's a way of finding out if it's been blacklisted.

Have you tried removing and re-inserting the sim card etc?

Does it have any branding in the software to indicate which network it belonged to originally such as a branded boot screen?

Then of course it may even just be faulty....
[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:
Hiya, thanks for that. The box has an Orange sticker on - but there is no software branding.
[HD2 General] paulrgod:
OK - i dont suppose you have an orange sim to hand or know anyone you could borrow one from to try in the phone - it would at least prove that it's just a network lock and nothing more serious.
[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:
The one thing i note from google though is that you get a "your handset is locked" screen when an unuseable sim is in the handset? and you switch it on? And i dont get that?

I have bought an unlock code - but dont know how to get to a screen that will allow me to enter it?
[HD2 General] paulrgod:
I'm not too sure what is displayed on the screen in the event of an incorrect sim as mine was factory unlocked when i bought it.

It may have been better to wait and prove the phone is just simlocked before buying an unlock code because if the phone is blacklisted or faulty then that code's useless.
[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:
I completely agree, but you know what men/gadgets are like - you want it working NOW!
[HD2 General] paulrgod:
Haha yeah too true mate :)

I'm not too sure what else to suggest, you really need to find out if its just a simlock or worse..

Good luck getting it working though :)

Oh just a further thing to try - a hard reset

Start >> Settings >> Security >> Factory Reset

Enter 1234 into the box and then press 'yes'
[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:
Still the same :-(

But i now have a G icon!

When i boot up i get a "which network do you want to choose" message - to which i select Vodafone, but we still have the exclamation mark - and no calls/txts etc......
[HD2 General] xmoo:

[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:

[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:
It was network blocked (barred), due to non-payment of bill.

Long story short, ive ordered a Desire now.
[HD2 General] paulrgod:
Ah Sorry to hear that mate. Hope your getting a refund sorted out ok with the dodgy ebayer..

Have fun with the Desire!
[HD2 General] TheGreenManalishi:
Should be ok for the refund - after all its a shop (cash converters type place), and i have threatened them with the police.

Before i sent it back i got going with a great rom though (albeit unable to call and txt!), the WM Pro user 2.02 - looked fab!

Hi there,

I was testing with Internet connections, and somehow I was blocked in a screen with no possible exit. I was in the "INTERNET" connection edit screen, but pressing Accept told me that this name was already in use... I only wanted to check settings, but it was like creating a new connection!

So, I finally added a leter to the "INTERNET" and now I have two new connections: "INTERNETg" and "INTERNETt" which I can't delete.

I have located them in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Destinations\INTERNETg

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Destinations\INTERNETg

But I can't delete them... they seem to be protected. How can I get rid of them?? I've googled, I've searched in xda... no solution.

Can anybody help? Thanx!!!
[HD2 General] mc4ren:
Sorry! I had the CeRegEditor running and it didn't allow deletion... Closed it and from PHM RegEdit I could delete them.

[TG01 General] xda_dev2063:
Hi, I want to buy a TG01 in the near future, due to the new ROMs and the low price in Germany for an used TG01 (starting at 160€) - I often use Pleco, a chinese dictionary and the "ChinaFEP No5" keyboard, that enables you to write characters on the screen. However I would like to know if there could be any problems because of the resistive touchscreen??? Does the touchscreen work incorrectly with "normal" pens? Do I need a special one?

Thank you for any answers regarding this problem!
[TG01 General] Howell:
AFAIK the resistives touchscreens work with any stylus... Capacitive touchscreens can have troubles with "normal" stylus.

thanks, I just thought I should ask before I buy it due to some reports about problems with the screen, but there seems to be a solution for that: showthread.php?t=632754

Hi, EmZvr, thank you for your response and application, I appreciate it much.

Any Idea?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bernhard12345:
Hi MyMailx,

i appreciate there would be no possibility to access your device. I think the only way to fix it will be a hardreset.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mymailx:
Hi Bernhard, Thank you for your reply.;)

I read mostly the situation like this, performing HardReset is the best solution but I'll try to fix the problem before option HardReset I do, because I really want to save my email and especially my SMS before hardreset. It's worthed more than thousands dollar. :p

Could it possible through performing bootloader???
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bernhard12345:
Hi,

I don't think that there s any way to get your date. You don't have backups?

good luck anyway

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mymailx:
Okay Bernhard, I'll try in searching a day again. :D

unfortunately I don't usually make a backup since the problem has never been happens to me.

By the next day if there is no solution could fix this problem maybe I'll perform a hardreset...

Thank you for having this convenient conversation. :D

I've tried this software too but since my PDA could not bootup (black screen after the BIOS), and of course ActiveSync is inactive, this software could not connect to my PDA.

Is there any application that able to access when bootloader is executed, somewhat, like when we're upgrading a ROM?

The only ones i can think of is terminal programs ie mtty,putty,ect but if you use them be careful they can really brick your phone.

If you can get your device into bootloader, you can always reflash your rom and that will restore your registry.

The " penalty "for mucking about in your registry, will be a reflash will erase all your data and apps .
