I had the same problem using the stock USB cord. It wouldn't transfer all the files without locking up. I now use my wifes evo cord and it works fine. Get yourself another USB cord and it will work just fine. The stock one sucks.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redram38:
I will try that, but the same cord is being used on the desktop and laptop. I need a couple of new cords anyway. I bought 3 at monoprice, 10 ft gold plated for just over 10.00, I will let you know if it works
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
Personally I use drop box to transferee small items such as themes, roms, music. For big files like movies I use either my evo cord or my girls blackberry cord.

2. Reflash MAGLDR

Edit : above poster beat me too it lol
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MartyLK:
The same way you flashed WP7. That is, of course, the Android ROM you want is USB flashable. If it is a Zip, you need to follow the instruction for flashing from an SD card. Android ROMs that flash from a card (CWM) will have instructions. And there are a few ROM that flash both ways; from USB or card.

[HD Mini General] curiouser:
Hi all!

Just got me an HTC Hd mini and I am really frustrated :mad: with the lack of functionality (compared to WM 6.1) in both HTC Sense & SPB Pocket Pc modes (not together, of course).

Am raring to try some cooked Roms, but with the phone being so new, I would rather have the ship Rom handy, just in case.

I can't seem to find a backup of this Rom version 1.36.721.3 (94538) WWE anywhere, which is really strange

Would it be possible for someone to upload for me on rapidshare/megaupload please? Or point me to where I can find it?

Thanks. :D

Okay folks,

As promised, I have taken the time to create a video outlining the steps to installing Dexter's froyo on the Milestone XT720.

Obviously, I can only post 15 minutes max onto youtube, so there are a few cuts in the video that might make certain steps seem quicker than they actually are.

BE PATIENT!!! Things take time to load. Don't rush things, and when in doubt... reboot the phone.

I'm sure that there will be questions, comments, complaints, and criticisms. Post them here, and I will address them if I can.

Link to the video:

Just an FYI: If you are not comfortable doing this...then DON'T. I am not responsible if you brick your phone or lose any of your data. Please pay attention to the fact that wiping/clearing/resetting data literally means that it will ALL BE GONE and not able to be retrieved.

Many thanks for taking the time to make this video. I have done the ROM installing process before (on my previous phone) but I always feel worried that I'm going to do something wrong and mess up things. I'm not putting Dexter's ROM on just yet (I just got my XT720 and want to make sure everything is working before voiding warranty) but this makes me feel safer about putting it on when I do.

Great Work

Superb video Rev,

it puts alot of us at ease, esp us that know sweet f.a. about this but follow these sites with interest in doing this kinda stuff.

I would like to ask you if there is anything else planned in the pipeline because I feel safer being able to visualise it as apposed to following instruction in text.

Your voice, details and mannerisms are perfect. MANY MANY THANKS

Issues I have is this (as newb):

I have a motoroi xt720. i wish to add the latest dexters 2.2 to it and all the bug updates, (confused about this sdtoapp, partitions etc stuff and what to do with my sd card)

also the overclocking , can it be left alone or does the latest dexters allow you to set/change it.

or shall i wait for v1,4 that will include all the latest bugfixes

life is never easy but this has to be easier than being married to a woman

[Milestone XT720 General] reverendkjr:
Thanks, I appreciate the comments.

As far as what is coming down the pipeline, I may have to make a revised video that includes the common questions that I have been asked over the last few months. Most people are still a bit confused as to how to run patches, how to apply themes, how to move the cache and many little nitpicky things. I can appreciate the apprehensiveness people have about doing this. You spend a bit of money on a "nice" phone, and the last thing you want to do it trash it with your own ignorance! :D I have "bricked" this phone several times, and have had to flash it back to stock, which is why I have done a video on how to get back to a fresh stock rom and start over. The ability to try it again should give people a bit more freedom to experiment and attempt some of the steps outlined in this forum. My own personal record, so far, is 14 flashes in one day. :eek:FACEPALM.:eek:

If the developers pump out another significant release, you will see me make another video explaining how to apply it and I'll take that opportunity to address some other questions as well. In the meantime, I encourage you to watch ALL of the videos that I have uploaded on my Youtube channel to see if they might shed some additional light on how to proceed with modifying your phone.

Happy Flashing!
[Milestone XT720 General] 3rdstring:
LOLs I guess my 3-4 isn't even in the running though I haven't had to flash back to stock, just boot to OpenRecovery & reflash.
[Milestone XT720 General] reverendkjr:
When I made my videos, I filmed them all on the same day, so I had to keep going through the process over and over again. I would get half way through a video and something would interrupt me and I would have to start over. During one take of a video, right after a flash, my phone rang, and it was a wrong number!

I keep waiting for the phone to prompt me that I have hit my maximum number of flashes. :D
[Milestone XT720 General] cheeksterr:
Thanks Reverend for replying so quickly.

I need to get to the races as you put it lolol.

[Milestone XT720 General] cheeksterr:
Okies let try to put this down covering all my worries and concerns

Lets take my motoroi xt720 flashed with 2.1 UK stock

SD card 8gb just in phone as bundled with when it came and ready to go

Follow the Rev's video tutorial on how to partition with Linux, all software loaded and ready to go

Q1 ? what would be a good size partition to make on the fat and ext3 for an 8gb?

Q2 ? Do we need to partition the SD card or can it be left as a 8gb card. I wish to put the update file on after , so I'm reading I need the partitions ?

Once this is done I take it we unzip v1.3 and load on Dexters 2.2 FROYO on the SD card. ? If so in which partition ?

Follow the superb video by the Rev to put on 1.3

Then check phone and hey presto its 2.2

Then we come to the upgrade bug zip file,

Where is it loaded on too, how do we safely add it ?

Overclocking can we leave as stock or do we adjust it with OC app.

apps to sd, link2sd , which one is easiest, do we only need to use one. ??

as a newb with limited tech knowledge, thats where I am with this.

so desperate to go to the races

regards

Carl
[Milestone XT720 General] reverendkjr:
OKay.

First of all, your partitions should be:

-1 gb or less for ext2/ext3

-The rest as FAT32.

I personally always do just under 1gb as ext3, and the rest FAT32. Then, I create the directories "app" and "dalvik-cache" on the ext3 partition. Unzip all your files to the FAT32 partition. Do NOT put anything on the ext3 other than those two empty partitions.

Once you've rooted and loaded 2.2, go back to your card and stick the file "whatever update you're loading.zip" into the openrecovery/updates directory of your FAT32, and then run OpenRecovery and choose that file to load. Be sure to clear out the cache and wipe dalvik while you're in there too.

After rebooting, this will make the dalvik-cache active on your ext3 partition, and your apps should be in there too. Link2sd is totally different and I havent found any personal value to it myself, but feel free to experiment. You would have to learn how that works and how to adjust your partition to accomodate it. I'm content with using the app2sd that is done by default just by creating the "app" directory on my ext3.

Overclock? That's up to you. I do. I keep mine at 1000mhz all of the time. I also use SetCPU and SD Speed Boost. This seems to give my phone the "zippiness" I desire without killing my battery too quickly. I have a charger next to my bed and I plug it in every night and unplug it every morning. This works for me. :cool:

Gparted not working as I think it should

Stuck with GParted Rev,

I have a 8GB card that shows as vfat7.4 in Puppy

It shows mnt/sdc1 and all my folders from my exsisting software is on there.

When I open up Gparted

dev/sda it shows as 1021.mb but i cannot get it to show sdab as in your tutorial.

the size of dev/sda shows 1021.Mib ?

anyone throw some light on this ?

i was thinking it would show near on 8gb ?

or am i being like the mrs (blonde)

thanks
[Milestone XT720 General] reverendkjr:
Whatever gparted shows as currently on the card, delete that. Then you can create new partitions. Also, make sure you are looking at the card and not the harddrive!

Flashing help needed

Hey, your videos helped me flash back to stock when you first posted them, so thanks for that

However, i tried following the same process again and got stuck on RSD Lite;

I turned on RSD Lite put my phone in bootloader mode...and connected it to my pc. RSD Lite recognised the phone.

I located my stock ROM..clicked start but i got a 'failed flashing process ox7100' notification under status.

in the error log files;

'ERROR: The superfile specified does not exist

File: X:\test_dev_usb\flash\code\flashdll\FlashHdlr.cpp'

Tried reinstalling RSD, renaming the sbf, and moving it to my documents and root of c drive

All the drivers etc must of all been installed correctly because this process has worked for me before. I am currently on dexters 1.2.

Any ideas?
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
I have no experience with RSD/windows. If you get really desperate you can use a linux boot CD and sbf_flash (that's what we use on linux instead of RSD). http://blog.opticaldelusion.org/2010/05/sbfflash.html
[Milestone XT720 General] IronMit:
thanks. i finally got RSD Lite to work (decided to use the linux step as a last resort due to never using it before- apart from virtual box 10 mins ago lol)

Apparently RSD Lite is a bit funky on windows 7 64 bit...sometimes it works sometimes its hopeless..i resorted to borrowing a windows xp pc and it worked fine lol
[Milestone XT720 General] spiderx_mm:
may be it depends on individual PC, I'm also using Windows 7 Enterprise 64bits and RSDLite is working as it should. never got an error.

If you're still wondering what to include in your new video.

[Milestone XT720 General] reverendkjr:
I figured that I would. I had quite a number of suggestions, and actually shot a load of video this past weekend, which....unfortunately...is all gone. My stupid video camera is not cooperating and it ate my sd card. all video gone. I am getting a new card by tomorrow (hopefully) and I will retake this footage and get it up.

I am going over installing khalpower's latest and greatest, touching on app2sd, link2sd, and swap. Also, I will discuss fastboot and I might have to leave out talking about themes, just due to time restrictions. I may come back and address that later in a supplemental video. I sometimes wish I had longer than 15 minutes per youtube video.

FYI, if you all haven't followed my "8 Minute Linux" videos, and haven't got virtualbox/linux available, you will NOT be able to follow my new videos completely.

Threat in dexter froyo files

I Got a high priority threat nicknamed "rageinacage" in the dexter froyo files ...is there an alternative root software that i can get? ...it was found in the "xt720v1.3" folder in the root folder...
[Milestone XT720 General] 3rdstring:
That's the exploit used to root the phone.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
rageinthecage is what we used to get root. Later, it was also used for trojan malware in the market (droiddream, big scare last year)--that's how it ended up in antivirus scan lists.
[Milestone XT720 General] cody168:
Wow, thank you for taking the time and effort to make the video. :good:
[Milestone XT720 General] vidoqc:
Hello Mioze!

Sadly my ESET NOD32 deletes the file BEFORE it gets downloaded. So i have to disable antivirus first .... are you 100% sure it is NOT the trojan?
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Well, I can't say what has or hasn't happened to dexter's website over the last two years or be responsible for that content. If the contents are the same as they were, it should be fine. My webbrowser pitches a fit when visiting his domain (presumably because Google's seen rageinthecage there). rageinthecage is just the exploit we use to get root on our eclair kernel. So, you *want* rageinthecage because you want root and your phone runs eclair. For everyone else, rageinthecage almost became part of a nightmare so 99.9% of the time rageinthecage is evil. But not for us--we are the 0.01%.

Are you sure you want Dexter's froyo ROM? It's ancient and we're much further now... are you just trying to root?
[Milestone XT720 General] vidoqc:
Hmm... I would like to upgrade my XT720, without the risk of not being able to use the full specs of Android. What do u recommend? The phone was bought from Amazon.fr, so it has original ROM on it. I understand i have to root first. Is there a tutorial on this? A safe one? Thanks for all the help!

how to change the font? i mean, total conversion of the font, not only certain text, i want every single letters changed with a better font..help me
[XPERIA X2 General] Hakim Rahman:
you'd better follow the instructions from Merlin_reloaded in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=334781&page=1

HOWTO: Change Default Font in WM6

I for one don't really like the default Tahoma font, so I thought I'd share how to change the default font.

Using the default Vista font "Segoe UI"

1. Copy your font file (usually *.ttf) into /Windows/Fonts. Be sure to note the INTERNAL name of the font (find it out by double-clicking on the file in Windows)
in this case "Segoe UI"

2. Using your favorite registry editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\SysFnt

3. Find the key named "Nm". Replace what's in it (usually Tahoma) with the name of the font, in this case "Segoe UI"

4. Repeat III for "HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\Menufnt\Barfnt" and "Popfnt"

4.1 Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\V1
- look for something like FontAliases. The keys inside represent the font "choices" -you have (which default to Tahoma), and look like Arial:-12. Change the value -from Tahoma* to Segoe UI*.
- Rinse and repeat.

5. Reset

And that's it ! The Segoe font renders much more easier to the eyes with Cleartype (and the spacing is really nice)

Do post newer font faces that look nice on QVGA screens

Hey guys, im using MikFroyo 4.4, stock kernel, no app killer. Im getting about 15 hours of what most would consider light-moderate use.

Im wondering what i can do to extend this without losing features. Is anyone getting better battery life and if so how?

custom kernel? overclock/underclock? other tweaks?

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbsolutZeroGI:
I use an SBC kernel (SBC #15 v7 from MS79723). There's rumors that it causes battery meltdowns, but from my experience I find that highly unlikely. I've been unplugged for 11 hours and I'm at 60% with what most consider moderate usage (about 100-150 texts, some light web browsing, a phone call or two, a few levels of angry birds). I'm also using Slayer's Cyan Dragon theme which looks badass but I'm not sure what it does for battery life (lessens it, makes it better, i dunno). The set up seems to be working pretty well after a couple of days of the kernel reading accurate battery stats.

I also reboot every morning when I wake up before I unplug to close any programs I still had running from the prior evening. Hope that helps.

There are many different ways to conserve battery do a search. I believe HTC admits we should only get like 6 hours use. Try different kernals and see what works best, but give each one a couple charging cycles before deciding. The setup im using is great but peoples phones react differently.
