Be Careful (GENE100) - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Dear All,

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=360357&page=4
i don't know what to say to him regarding the very bad program that he mentioned there.
after i copied his program to my GENE's momory and run it, i got to the tri-color screen and no updates can be done for three days.

I am sorry to hear your bad experinece, but I have to say that all of us using tools that were not specifically designed for our devices and found on this fantastic forum are AT OUR OWN RISK.
Personally I have more than a year using several OS, soft, etc and never crashed my device.
I enocurage you to not blame a bad programmer never.
It was never intended to harm anyones devices, but there is always a risk that we agree to have when we install something "extra"
Good luck mate

Hi orb3000,
I agree with you 100% and i wish that my GENE will come alive again.

there is a wiki for a reason.
If only you'd waited 10 minutes for me to post in your other stupid question thread...but fortunately, you did read the wiki as someone suggested and all the other posts in here about bricked hermes and how to solve them so you're going to be fine
Fear not
What?
You didn't read stuff?
You don't know what HardSPL is?
wiki what now?
oh well...
Well cant say i havent helped this guy, i PM-ed him earlier with this:
Unfortunately you seem to have not got off to a good start
Take a look at my upgrading guides as they will help you through the upgrading processes. I strongly suggest you upgrade to HardSPL as this will safeguard against any problems you might have when flashing.
Nobody can say which is the best ROM, however according to the poll on my site most people use Black 2.0. Give it a go good luck.

Big Big Big problem new rom

Good morning all
Is the first time that i write in a forum, i'll try to explain my problem and i hope that somobody can help me.
I'm working in china and one day i lost my thelephone, so i decided to buy a PDA HTC P3300.But only after some day i saw that some thing was not working, so i'm tring to downgrade a new rom.
Here i had my problem, i followed all the details that i found on internet, also i took some informations and file from this forum to coplete the procedure like Hard SPL and so on, the problem is that when activesync is connected to the device i launch for example Hard SPL to upgrade it but after the program showed me the version installated and i said upgrade, i waited for a while and then the progam told me to check the usb connection (i tried whit 3 different cable) ERROR 260.The same thing happened when i tried to change the ROM.
CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE?? I NEED THE PDA ALSO FOR WORK.
Thank you everybody!
You might have better luck asking for assistance on this subject in the Artemis upgrading forum:

Hard Spl??? For the Artmes?? Mate are you trying to brick your device cause it seems you are doing a pretty good job of it too,Hard Spl is NOT for the p3300 it is for the Hermes and Trinity which are two very very different models of HTC. Please make an effort to read the Wiki before you start messing with the phone.Try flashing the t-mobile stock rom FOR THE ARTEMIS(WITHOUT THE HARD SPL) and hopefully it may work also find out from your buyer if it is CID unlocked though i doubt wether they would know.
Check in Settings - Connections - USB to PC that the USB advanced network functionality is not ticked. That's caught me out in the past after making changes.
This is assuming that others in this forum are correct and you've not yet made a brick using the wrong model. Good luck!
One problem more on rom
Thanks all for your answers
sorry but i still had one problem more
As arvind09 said i read almost all Wiki before do some other stupid things, i downloaded anhoter rom from this page:

T-Mobile Here
Did you buy it in China?
If you bought the phone in China, there will be 2 versions. 1 for the chinese market (han huo) and the others are for other markets (usually europe) then flashed with the chinese rom (shui huo). As far as I know the chinese versions aren't locked and the foreign market versions musn't be locked either due to the fact that they have to put on the chinese rom

Stoopid noob needs advice,please dont flame.

Just been given a Vodafone u.k 1605(hermes),the digitiser was trashed so ive soldered in a new one.I would love to install Black 2.5 for T-moblie u.k which is my sim network.Do i just install this to the phone or do i have to take any other action first?The phone is unlocked.
Sorry,i imagine this has been asked many times before.I have seen mention of Hard spl's and other thing a ma jigs lol.
Many thanks Tony
You really have a lot of reading to do. So much that we cannot post it all here. It has taken an entire forum for all of the information. You need to start here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
Get familiar with what you can do. First thing you are going to want to do is update the boot loader so you don't brick your device. Read here for more information:

Do not "just install" ... ideally read the wiki first, and then follow instructions on Mrvanx's Guide. Upgrading is pretty painless and easy ... and the guide should keep you on track.
A ha ,i knew there would be more to it than that,not sure what a wiki is lol but looks like im gonna find out.
If someone could just give me a list of things to do before hand ill do the appropriate reading
i.e 1 upgrade the boot loader etc etc ,please dont go into detail a mere shopping list will do.
,thanks for the links by the way.
Best wishes tony

Read the threads concerning the threads on available roms.
Understand what you have read.
Flash your phone.

My subjective pick is Black 3.01 ...
Remember to go "Hard SPL" first, and that you need to upgrade your radio seperately.
Right just updated the Hard splv7 and my radio to 1.41.00.10,ive also flashed with black 3.0. Now i cant seem to get a wireless link to work or turn on my bluetooth?
Also does this mean i can flash any cooked rom?
Many thanks Tony
Update: it just needed a reboot and all was well.
Getting back to the above question-can i flash with any coocked rom now?
Thanks for all your help.Tony

generally speaking, yes.... but be sure you are flashing OS only (unless you want to upgrade your radio too). Most folks are putting out OS only upgrades now, but some replace the radio. once you are hard spl and no longer a flashing virgin, it becomes second nature.
Thanks for everyones help,all sorted,nice one!
Wow what a refreshing read. A noob explaining himself and asking clear questions and members helping him out in an open and non-judgemental way...
Well done everyone!
...and no flames...
Kudos go to MrVanx for those incredible guides.
Yep superb guides and a very noob friendly thread,thanks again peeps.Flashed to a couple of different roms today to check them out.

Samsung I780 - Roms - Boot, Radio and PDA Thread.

Hello everyone.
This is starting to become a big mess. At least for me, so i think its better for us to start a thread with a list of available roms and with a description of what new on them , witch is the better boot and radio, etc, for each specific situation.
Joao Oliveira.
yeah...
great idea. i had so much trouble just find latest radio rom for i780.

At this point i don't know which eboot or radio or even rom to flash there are so many threads around and with confusing arguments that i thought i would be good to a concentrated thread with all the necessary info!
hmmm is there any other camera tool? cant even run my... giveing an error and closing it
We Need Our Own Forum!
I am running PDA DXHD1 and phone DXHC4. Everything is running fine, ie WIFI, GPS, etc. But I do agree a designated forum would be helpful for everyone to share knowledge on this great machine.
Yes Samsung i780 should have it's own forum but i don't we will be that lucky. The only non Htc/qtek forum there is one dedicated to and hp device (don't understand why??!) so ...
A question, did anyone tried to flash rom (phone, Pda or eboot) on network sim locked devices? I have one and i'm a bit scared of bricking it. And since there isn't any free unlocking solution available...
Thanks... lets keep the I-780 community growing here !!!

I have flashed my orange branded I780, the pda and radio rom and no problems.
maybe we should create something like the (unofficiel) ultimate I780 topic .. with a good startpost where some differences between roms are mentioned are the big bugs are explained / solved with the tweaks available.
just my 2 euro cents

It's living here on xda-dev. Thanks for keeping it alive.
dear forumners i have a ROM question for the i780 (especially for Mr. João Oliveira).
Is it possible to just update the phone (i780) with just some installation rom? what about hardware specifics or tech issues with each phone?
I have a TMN Portugal i780 but have unlocked it in order to use Vodafone PT... Other networks around the globe have released their updates to WM 6.x, 6.5.x. I wish i could do the same.
Any help?
Thank you

BT S620 not booting .. urgent help!

Hello everyone ..
I need your help , I I installed the arabizer and rebooted ... and never reach home again! phone is jamming at BT LOGO and doesnt go any further.
took battery off , same thing! cant get activesync see the phone either
BTW, I recently Upgraded to WM6 Standard !!
any ideas?
Appreciate your time guys!
check the sticky for the unbricking your phone thread and also the hard reset bootloader thread. they should allow you to unbrick and reflash your phone. upgrade to ookba's 6.5 and you'll encounter less problems. im guessing your phone wasn't unlocked to apps since you're just hitting WM6 standard. you might wanna do that next time and prevent this problem again
Thanks dude,
I will check it and get back to you

Was your BT not already WM6 as they have been dispatched for over a year with WM6.
B.T.W if you after a nicer looking better functioning device update to 6.1 or 6.5, the BT official ROM is posted in sticky too just incase you have to return phone ever "not that i thnk BT would even turn the phone on to check lol they pretty useless @ everything they do" yep i'm an ex BT subscriber

Sure I want, what do you recommend??? I will eventually need to have some Arabic support thought!
I bought it over Ebay with WM5, but got it upgraded to WM6 (still BT, and yes it looks stupid )
one your phone is properly unlocked for apps and you are settled in with a rom that works well for you, installing arabic support shouldn't be a problem. just make sure the Arabic support program you install will work with the rom you choose. search the forums and find all the info on the roms and find one that will suit you best. don't be scared to ask questions.. but diving head first without all the research can be sketchy. really really sketchy
tried few threads but I still cant flash any new roms !
okay i'm still working on no sleep but you seem pretty desperate and i think i know how you feel. A bricked phone sucks. So here's the threads and i'll explain as i give em to you. If you phone is locked up (bricked) and wont boot up past the Windows screen go here and follow the instructions to get your phone working again http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493266 if you had to use that to unbrick your phone and prepare it for flashing flash your phone with one of these factory roms from herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381726. once your phone is working and you can access your home screen and start menu install this program to unlock your sim and applications from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355789. this will allow you to flash through serveral of the new 6.5 roms such as the 3vo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718 and the NRGhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=527496 rom series. If you absolutly can't getting it working messages us back and one of the makers of these roms will help you because im going to sleep. good luck
EDIT: if you absolutely can not unbrick check out this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540492
Thanks for your help and time dude, but I guess you sent same link for all things by mistake
BTW, the phone is not sim-locked , but I dont know about applications , tried several ways but nothing yet ..
