Unhide/Unlocking Universal Ext Rom ?? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Hi
On my BA there were some tools to do this. I am assuming that they have not yet been created for the universal yet (unless I am missing something?)
I tried the BA ones (nothing to loose), to no avail.
On my BA, I always used to cherry pick what I wanted from the extended rom post install.
Nigel

currently you can't unlock the extended rom, but with totakcommander you can type /Extended_Rom on the commandline and you'll see the content of the folder. You can start the .cab files from there or copy them to the SD card.
You can't copy anything back to the extended rom.
Wolfgang

Cheers Wolfgang!
Total Commander can be found here:

Yeah... Dopod from Michael (mwang) arrived today as well, but they want me to pay the custom fee... oh well...
So it is now blocked at the post office and i have to give them proof of it's price.. hmm.... or something like that...
buzz

Yaeh, i know the feeling about customs charges, i bought a Top-Gun style leather jacket from the US and it cost me an extra 54 quid on import tax and VAT
Anyway, you'll love the universal, it is so much better than the old xda ii, even Mel (the missus) likes it.....
Speak to ya soon. if you want me to test anything for ya, as always, no problems....

I've had that before, and not far from you either
I buy a lot of stuff from eBay, but all the customs crap (not just the fees, but all the paperwork and delays) made me limit most of my purchases to the EU. I still get stuff from the US, and the far east sometimes, but mostly just items with small (declared) value, that can slip through.
There I come to my point: I see that you have to provide a proof of the price like I had to. Since I had a private ebay purchase, I could only print the receipt from the website. As most of the gadgets I got were very uncommon, a few times I took the liberty and changed some numbers on the receipt. Nothing outrageous, of course, but still. The cumulative 8% import duty +25% VAT pissed me off a lot...
You might want to consider this if they ask for half your kingdom...
:wink:

Finally

I finally got my XDA II today.
So I join the club again. I really felt lost with out my XDA..
I bought it in HK and sent it over to NL together with an nice Blue Tooth headset of Logitech.Paid 637 Euro for the XDAII.
Not bad hey? Im as happy as a clam!
No problem at all getting it through the Dutch customs?

Neah.. To you have any idea how many packages go through NL customs each day...?
Of course there is a risk.
But still if you have to pay 19% is ok. (Im not sure that the import tax is for this item. (between 4 - 14%)
I also have some contacts in HK that arranged XDAII for me.

Does anyone want to sell their Artemis/P3300?

Hi guys. I'm selling my EXEC at the mo and i'm looking for a replacement. I really like the look of the Artemis/P3300. Does anybody want to sell me theirs? I DON'T want a compact iii or an Orbit, IT HAS TO BE AN Artemis/P3300.
I'm located at EXETER/BRISTOL UK!
Hmm..
All of them.. copmpact III, orbit, P3300 are called Artemis.
I thought only the Orbit looks like the odd one out? The rest look the same. Ya can even get the Dopod P800W...
I guess he means an unbranded Version of the P3300 directly from HTC
Yeah sorry i ment i wanted the one from HTC. The compact has no WIFI (WHY??!!???) and i don't like the rounded style of the Orbit.
So...... Anybody selling??

Errr, only a couple of months after release? I doubt it.
If you really want one, why not just go buy from Expansys. Oh, yes, because it'll cost you a stack of cash and you want one for half price. And you think someone here who paid that stack of cash just a few weeks ago will sell to you for cheap...?
Sheesh.

Hey, chill, there's no harm in asking, is there? Besides, if you want a discount, eXpensys is the LAST place you should be looking. Try Clove.co.uk - an excellent reputation for service and currently listing the 3300 nearly £60 cheaper. Or, wait a few weeks, and try your luck on eBay. I'm sure there'll be some around when the Christmas credit card bills come rolling in and folk are regretting the impulse buy - or they decide they simply cannot get along with the Rollr...

Hard-SPL, or How to get that useful thingy on my device

Hi chaps,
I'm expecting a Diamond in the coming weeks; I've already got a Hard-SPL done and ready to test along with the SSPL, so once I've verified it works (and frankly, I don't see it failing) I'll release it for general consumption.
Cheers.
Thanks oli for your hardwork
bless you

I'd just like to say I advise AGAINST using tom codon's Hard-SPL (unless you have a pressing need to flash) as it's not based on an MFG, the one I'm releasing of course, *is*

Hate to ask the noob question oli but what is the difference between the two i.e. mfg and non-mfg. Does mfg mean yours is based off of the manufacturer's spl??
thanks for enlightening me (if u see fit )
mfg has extra commands in the bootloader. these are not in shipped spl's i dont think. probably in the wiki somewhere. commands do thinks like hard reset, format the nand, and other stuff..

And be careful as well because people try to sell Kavana's Rom as well on ebay.
Does this actually work for the Exzcalibur or is it just for Hermes?

RHODIUM owners come here !!!!!

Let's count here to see actually how many Touch Pro 2 owners are here
I'm guessing there are more visitors than owners on this rhodium site
Hi,
After Kaiser, Raphael, I have now a french Rhodium unbranded (unfortunatly for hard spl with samsung chip).

I bought mine from CLOVE.CO.UK on May 30th .
I had it sent to a friend's address in London as I couldn't risk loosing it or getting it stuck at customs here in Istanbul.
So I flew to London just for a day to pick it up from my friend )))
It was the most expensive phone I ever bought

Couldn't you just buy out HTC for that money?
I like to be the first to own some things and there is cost for that which I am willing to pay.
I remember flying to Germany to buy the Sony Ericsson P1i on the first date it was ever released......
The funny thing I went in the morning and flew back home the same day and the German police at the passport control couldn't understand why I would fly to another country to buy a phone and return home the very same day, he tought I was upto something else

Does it count that I have had 4 so far? Sent 3 back for being faulty.
I'm sure there is more than 100 owners, especially with all the comments going round in this forum.

Not really an option in the poll for me. I haven't "already ordered", but I couldn't be further from "No Thanks".

If you figure out how please add "once it hits my carrier I will own it" because the US carriers have not released it yet.
Got it two weeks ago. Prefer SPB Mobile Shell 3 over TouchFlow3D.

I'm sorry it won't allow me.
But anyway , thinking of buying and ordering the the thing are two different things. You may think of buying TP2 but but decide on a Nokia N97 for example, this could affect the outcome of the Poll When you bought it or ordered it, you could vote here
Seems like so far only 66 of us , I doubt we could make it to 100 owners..
got one about a week back.
got mine for a while now and touchflo 3d beats mobishell on tp2.
Agree with Shingers here, having tried SPb Mobile Shell, I much prefer TF3D. Smooth, intuitive and well, just very pretty! (=
It's the thing that most impresses people when I take out my phone and *ahem* brag a little. I bought mine about two weeks ago. Unlocked, generic ROM, unbranded HTC, roughly 800 dollars.
GOt my tmobile one, for free
Got mine 3 weeks ago - ordered in uk! perfect companion so far with some bugs left...
