Do any of you have a program that I could use to sync my phone to my Computer via usb? I've tried several versions of Tera Term with no success. I reached the point where I was ready to pull all of my hair out and then I remembered... I don't have anyway. Oh well. Please help I really want to upgrade my rom but I want to back up the old first. Thanks, Vern.
i think i don't understand what you're trying to do!?
Don't you use ActiveSync for Syncing with your PC?
And wtf is Tera Term???
This is what I'm trying to do:

1. Get a 128MB SD card. They're cheap - under $20.
2. Insert said card.
3. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386 and download the aWizard utility. CID-unlock your phone. (You only need to do this ONCE, even if reflash in the future.)
4. Get a terminal program that can speak over the USB port. There is a patched version of Terraterm out there, along with a few others. You need a way to connect to the device over the USB port as an ascii terminal.
5. Turn off the phone.
6. Holding the CAMERA key, press the power button for 2-3 seconds. Continue holding the CAMERA key until it comes up in the tri-color screen.
7. Connect the USB cable. Wait until ActiveSync tries to start. CTRL-ALT-DEL Windows and kill the process wcescomm.exe (ActiveSync's communication driver)
8. Now start your terminal program and point it at the USB port. Hit RETURN and you should get a command prompt. You are now talking to the phone's boot loader in terminal mode.
9. Type "r2sd all" and hit RETURN.
10. If you get a security level violation, you DID NOT CID-unlock the device. Go back to step #1.
11. The ROM image (all of it) will be written to the SD card. Several messages will be displayed while this is in progress. Note that this is NOT - I repeat - NOT - a filesystem-formatted dump - it is a RAW image of the ROM with some checksum information included. Anything on the SD card will be destroyed - don't do this with a card that has data on it you care about!
12. You can stick this card somewhere to be used for restoring. If you want to save the image off the card to your computer, stick the SD card in your computer and then dump 128MB of the card starting at the front (the actual dump is about 80mb but will always be less than 128MB, so that's "safe".) You will need a tool like "psdread" or any other tool that can do byte-level I/O to the SD card in your PC's reader for this.
To restore a SD-card image dump to the Wizard:
1. Write the image to the SD card. Again, this is NOT a filesystem - its a RAW image! Unless you saved the image to the card from the Wizard initially you will need a tool that can do a raw write to the SD card in your computer.
2. With the Wizard OFF, insert the card into the SD slot.
3. Hold BOTH the CAMERA and VOICE keys and press the power button for 3 seconds. Release POWER.
4. Look CAREFULLY at the Wizard screen. The backlight WILL NOT BE ON! It will tell you to press the VOICE button if you wish to restore the SD card image. This message only appears for a few seconds and the backlight is OFF! If you wait too long you will end up at the tri-color bootloader screen. Press the VOICE button (if you still have it down, let up on it then press again.)
5. The restore will run. Note that the backlight IS NOT ON during this process! You may need a flashlight (or very bright ambient light) to be able to read the progress meter.
6. When the process is complete it will tell you to press "any key". Do so and you're back in the tri-color bootloader screen.
7. Turn off the Wizard with the power button. When you turn it back on, it will hard reset just as if it was brand new off the firmware you just restored.
Note that this is the ONLY way to recover from a bricked phone if you try to load the wrong firmware file using one of the "forcible" methods (e.g. aWizard) on a non-CID-unlocked phone, and have bypassed the normal protection methods as ActiveSync cannot get back in there under these circumstances.
I strongly recommend that if you're going to futz with firmware, that you get yourself a 128MB card, make one of these dumps, and TEST the restore before you play around. This will recover from almost any botch - the only exception is loading a firmware file via some means (e.g. "aWizard") that the phone cannot execute at all.
Note that I do not know if this will get around the "boot loader version is too high" problem - I'm not willing to try it until I have an official T-Mobile update with a newer boot loader.
This same method for both dump and restore works on the SDA as well.
13. Overclocking the MDA (do so at your own risk!)

Don't forget to remove the ";" (without the quotes) at the beginning of the overclock settings in the configuration file!
How fast you can clock it depends on your device, it's just a matter of trial and error. 240 seems to be safe for the majority of HTC Wizard owners. No need for extra tools to wake overclocking up after a soft reset or standby. I haven't noticed severy battery drain, I can easily use my device a whole day and come home with the batterie well over 50% charged.
It's just a great little program. The integrated overclocking comes as a bonus to the tweak that the program was actualy made for, remapping buttons so you can open the start menu without using your stylus and close programs without using the stylus.
Have a look around on the HTC Wizard Blog, there is lots of other stuff that you may find useful.
And Number 4 is WTF Tera Term is. Thanks.
I bought it from Germany, and the verison is RC9
I had tried to follow the How to guide from this forum, but i receive the following message after enter to the rainbow screen
1. Serial0
2. 0020288 and Not allowed
I have also try to load in RC7, RC8, and even RC 29, same result. Is it the MicroSD card issue? i am using the one it bundled, formatted it as FAT32..but just by passed that grey screen
I appericated with any comments or suggestion from any of you
Thanks
sorry, i mean i could NOT by passed that grey screen...
please help...

2 things I would check. Make sure the files downloaded properly (check the md5) and double check that the card is formated to Fat32.
my card is formatted as Fat32, and the file Md5 is (2F02DD9A3B7C7F2FE058047B9C7A0245)
does it look ok to you
Thanks for you reply
More info: my G1 is
Firmware = 1.1
Baseband version = 1.22.14.11
Kernel version = 2.6.25-01845-g85d4f0d [email protected] #27
Build number = TMI-RC9 128600
Please help... thanks

looks like your MD5 hash there is the leaked .nhb file used for the UK version to get root.
are you placing the WHOLE .zip on the memory card or just the .nhb file (which I belive it should just be the .nhb file like it is for the US version)
so you got the whole card set to FAT32 which is good
then you placed the .NHB file into the ROOT of the memory card (no folders)
You held down the camera + Power buttons and got into the bootloader
-Did you see the rainbow screen?
-Did you see the grey screen that said "press action key to start update" ( action key is the trackball)
and after it updates .. if it did or does go that far (it will say ok next to each line and completed) the you reboot the phone by pressing the Send + End + menu keys at the same time to reboot the phone from that grey screen.
NOTE: this is for the US version .. I am not really sure if this applies the same for the UK version ...
ALSO I found this for the UK version .. its a little different for the key presses .. not sure if they are right but here they are
1.Copy image file DREAIMG.nbh to the SD card
2.Turn the device power off and insert SD card
3.Hold Camera button, and press Power button to entry Boot loader mode
4.Press Power button to start upgrade procedure (the US version is the trackball as action key .. not sure if it makes a difference)
5.After it finishes, press the trackball and perform a soft reset by pressing "Call" + "Menu" + "End" to reboot. (not sure why you hit the trackball the US version doesnt require that .. just the Send+End+menu to reboot)
THEN the rest that you need to follow after it flashes (if you get that far) is all on this link here
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Rooting_Android
steps are from that site
1.Restart your phone
2.At your phones desktop hit the <enter> key twice and then type "telnetd" and press <enter> again
3.Download an Android Telnet client and connect to localhost. If you are unable to connect, try steps 1 and 2 over again until you can.
4.you now have root!
intersetingly ... this method there is no recovery image or spl to download anywhere in this like there is in the US version ... may just the differences between the two phones BUT if you really wanted to compare or take a look at the US version to decide for yourself then go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480
hope that something in here helps ya
<My answer in blanket>
are you placing the WHOLE .zip on the memory card or just the .nhb file
(I unzip it, and put the .nhb file into the ROOT of SD)
You held down the camera + Power buttons and got into the bootloader
-Did you see the rainbow screen?
(Yes)
-Did you see the grey screen
(Yes, but after "Checking", i received a error message say, "0200230 Not allowed" message)
Hope it help, Thanks brilliant

I had tried that too, but stuck at 4. Select Dream from the list of devices, Click "Get SD Card Serial from WINCE Device"
the program close after i click on the "Get SD ..." button
I tried to do it inside G1, and also card reader..
by the way, my SD card is manufactured by Kingmax

I'd love to help here, but I have no experience with that method. I would try searching that thread to see if anyone else has that same problem. If you can't find anything there, start a new thread here describing your problem in the title (it will attract people who have an idea or know the answer).
How to check my SD card's CID? i just cant run the Qmat...
Okay pardon the bad formatting, I copied this from a site I googled and saved it as a html file. Basically you get your device rooted without Qmat or any WinCE device:
1. insert Transcend 8GB sd card into G1 (sandisk may not work. Lower capacities will work and may even be better. Other makes will also work)
2. download Terminal Emulator from the market and open it on G1
3. type “cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid” (without the quotes), and keep the code given (something like 1c5356555344202010041c71f0008c5e)
4. Reverse the code byte-wise ( my 1c 53 56 55 53 44 20 20 10 04 1c 71 f0 00 8c 5e became 5e8c00f0711c0410202044535556531c)
5. Overwrite first two digits with 00s: 008c00f0711c0410202044535556531c
6. On your pc browser, go to http://revskills.de/pages/goldcard.html, paste your code and email address and hit continue (while thinking “thank you viperbjk” or donating some money)
7. format sd card to fat32 (may be good to rewrite partition table)
8. download RC7 from http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1/DREAMIMG-RC7.zip and extract
9. download goldcard from your email address (goldcard.img, less than 440 bytes)
10. copy DREAIMG.nbh to SD card (CASE sensitive! Filename very important)
11. unmount /dev/sdb1
12. type in terminal: “sudo dd if=goldcard.img of=/dev/sdd” (result: 0+1 records in, 0+1 records out, 384 bytes (384 B) copied) (assuming your sd is in /dev/sdd)
13. pull out sd card (now goldcard!) and insert into g1
14. hold camera button and press power button once
15. wait until the bootloader finds the rom and push power button when prompted. (if you do not see this instruction, you have done something wrong)
16. Continue with flashing recovery, HardSPL, RC8 etc...
If you do it exactly according to the steps listed, you should get your device rooted. I know mine worked
EDIT: Bleh, formatting was so bad, I had to fix it. Anyway, once you've done rooting, you should look for ways to change your keyboard layout. The German QWERTZ drove me nuts so I remapped mine to good ol' QWERTY
EDIT2:
How to write the raw sectors without having Cygwin or a Linux device:
- download HxD Hex Editor and install
- open program and go to "extra" and then "open disk"
- choose physical disk and then the removable disk. that is the same as your memory card. I've you don`t know with one it is. just remove the card and restart the program and you will see witch one is disappeared.
- uncheck open as readonly !!!!!!!
- go to "extra" again and the open disk image.
- open the goldcard.img witch you have created from Viper BJK website.
- press ok (512 is fine) en then "select all" and "copy"
- go to the removable disk tab and select offset 00000000 till offset 00000170 go to "edit" and then past write.
- save it
You can't create the HTC GoldCard with your G1 or with a card reader. You need a phone running Windows Mobile (WindowsCE). It's the only thing (that I know of) that can write the goldcard.img to the correct RAW sectors.

You can actually. The process has been documented on the forums but it's in the middle of one of the threads linked earlier. Or you can just follow the guide I posted above. That'll guide you through the entire goldcard creation process.
It works, I did it for my German continental G1. Though there are reports that some Sandisk cards report wrong CID numbers. Mine gave the right one
EDIT: There's a way to write the raw sectors without using Cygwin (for sudo if you don't have a Linux box). If I recall correctly, I used HxD to perform that process. Might be wrong, I'll have to check when I get back home.

This thread puts all the necessary steps together for sucessfully run the Android-release from THIS thread on the X1. Since many seem to have problems with that this may become handy
So lets get started!
What you need:
- latest XPEROID-release, fatsal-xperoid-20100221.7z, get it here
- 7zip to extract it, get it here
- sd-card, using fat32-filesystem with 500MB free space
What you need to do with it:
1. Extract fatsal-xperoid-20100221.7z on your computer. This will give you the following files:
- calibration, wlan-firmware
- haret.exe, runs the linux-kernel and android
- initrd.gz, initial ramdisk, needed for linux to boot (phase one)
- modules-2.6.27-00888-g339bdfc-dirty.tar.gz, linux- and android-driver for wlan
- rootfs.img, contains files needed for linux to continue boot (phase two)
- STARTUP.TXT, contains the parameter for haret.exe and boot-options for linux-kernel
- system.sqsh, contains all android system files
- zImage, contains the linux-kernel
- conf/*.user.conf, configuration files for android
- AndroidApps/*.apk, applications for android, installed during boot
2. Delete all the *.apk-files from the AndroidApps-directory. They are not needed for running android. You should keep the directory, just delete all files in it.
3. Download some essential android apps here, you will get essential_apps.zip. Extract it and put the apk-files into the AndroidApps/ folder.
4. go to conf/ and delete eclair.user.conf, then rename eclair.user.conf~ to eclair.user.conf. That will disable the swapfile.
5. open startup.txt and remove the mem-option mem=102M. This was suggested by hotlein here. That will increase the memory from 102m to 182M and improve android speed alot.
6. Copy all files and directories to the root of your sd-card. Do not create any directory, just copy them to the blank sd-card.
7. Put the sd-card in your phone if not already done. On the X1 open the sd-card and run haret.exe. You will get alot text running across the screen. During the boot-process, one file is created.
- data.img (256M). This file contains all the files normaly stored on the android-phone. Your settings, Applications, media, etc. You can always delete this file to reset android. It will be recreated.
First boot takes a while to complete, so be patient. Finally you should get the android welcome screen. Follow the on-screen-instructions and you are done!
Changing some settings
- IMPORTANT: Disable GPS in settings -> location & security -> Use GPS satellites, because it will hang the device!
- Turn off locks screen when holding red call button. Spare parts -> End button behaviour -> Nothing. That will simplify the shutdown procedure. Credits go to Reversedhex: Post
Now let's stop android
1. Press and hold the end-call-key. The phone starts to vibrate like crazy, ignore that.
2. After a few seconds a menu pops up. Dont release the button yet, keep holding it! If you changed end button behaviour, you can release it now.
3. Press down on the digi-pad. You may press it three times to go to the shutdown-option.
4. Now you can release the end-call-key. If you do not hold it, you will end up in the android lock screen.
5. Select shutdown option and confirm. Then android shuts down.
If you try another kernel-image (that is replacing zImage), the system may lock up during shutdown. Then you have to soft-reset your phone. But you should always try to shut android down.
Now you can update the linux-kernel:
1. Download the kernel-image, get the latest here. That gives you zImage_kovsky_20100325.zip.
2. Extract zImage_kovsky_20100325.zip to get zImage. This is the linux kernel.
3. Copy zImage to the root of your sd-card. You should always back up your existing zImage so you can go back.
4. Download wlan-modules, as they must match the kernel-image, get them from here. That gives you wlan-modules_20100325.zip.
5. Extract wlan-modules_20100325.zip to get modules-2.6.27-01006-ga30aafa-dirty.tar.gz. This archive contains the wlan modules. Do not extract this. Simply put this on the root of your sd-card. On android startup this file will be extracted on the modules copied for you.
As suggestet by angusmcb (post), i used for the latest kernel the latest cross-compiler.
Latest kernel from xdadev-repos with backlight control and correct battery readout, get it here. The archive also contains matching wlan-modules.
Troubleshooting
Q. Android will not boot
A1. check if all needed files are present
A2. check if you have enough free space on card. Android creates two big files during first boot, so you will need at least 384M free space.
A3. you can try to delete data.img and swapfile to reset android. This helps if you messed up settings in android.
Q. Wlan wont start
A1. check if file calibration on sd-card-root
A2. check if file modules-*.tar.gz matches kernel-image
A3. you may try to enable wlan in windows mobile before running haret.exe
Q. How to stop android from using data connection
A. go to settings -> wireless & networks -> mobile networks -> access point names and delete all apn-settings
Q. Android-screen is upside-down
A. Slide out keyboard -> android switches to landscape. Then slide keyboard in -> android switches to correct portrait.
Q. I have no ringtones
A1. Put the ringtones in the MEDIA\AUDIO\ringtones folder (post, post for folder structure)
A2. Take a look at this post. Some characters make the android media scanner crash.
Q. I can not enter pipe-symbol. Where to find keymaping
A1. Press function key, followed by shift key, followed by commer key (right hand side of space bar) (linuxtux post)
A2. For keymapping in general take a look here. That is the default android keymapping.
Q. I want live wallpapers
A. Here you go. But be prepared for performance loss.
Q. I can not send SMS
A. Check this post by jimipoh. It might help.

This thread is mainly about how to get android working. I am trying to speed android up by partitioning the sdcard as fatsal mentioned. If it works there will be a HOWTO for that, too.
Until then i will continue to work the linux-kernel for X1-android until it is done (or i loose my X1, too )
This is pretty consize. I hope it sums up all the main points of fatsal thread on android
With zImage_kovsky_20100313.zip system always lock up during shutdown
i have tried to run this android on X2. I run the haret. the BOOTING LINUX window fils the line al the way then there is no black and white running text like on X1. the start bar apeares on the bottom end of the screen. and nothing is responding.. i have waited more then 10 minutes but still nothing happens.

Unfortunately, due to certain hardware limitations of the X2, boot time of the X1 kernel on the X2 can take a little longer. About 1.2 seconds after the sun explodes and extinguishes all life on Earth 4 billion years in the future, is a good estimate.
Sorry
vdelf, will you be committing regularly to gitorious? Or do you have a scratch repo for messing around with?

i always get an error saying mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: invalid argument
failed
failed to mount the sd card, cannot continue
/bin/sh: cant access tty; job control turned off
anybody has any idea? i am using sandisk mobile ultra 8gb mirco sdhc
i had the bin/sh error too , first time.
when simply retrying -> it booted up to the "exploding X".
however, that screen froze on me.
i seem to get more progress though than with the material from the original threads.
the material from this topic has gotten me further than ever before. as i speak i'm booting a fresh one with the new kernel (from the start). it's upside down, but i hope this one works 'out of the box'.
persistence is paramount, as time passes the chance on reaching satisfaction approaches 1. how this satisfaction is achieved is up to you; may it be through running XPEROID, purchasing an android phone or simply giving up.
I managed to get it back to the "exploding X" screen (using the first file, not the kernel update).
It seems to be stuck in the X screen though, it's looping (and stalling a little) for 20 minutes now. Last time I soft-resetted the phone after about 10 minutes of X-screen, and it mangled my sd card (meaning I had start from scratch). There is no text (or error message for that matter), so I don't know what is going on.
Is anyone familiar with this?
EDIT:
I paused my attempts for now. Same result over and over. I'm not able to find anything on this in the original thread (or possibly when I read every single post I might find something), search reveals nothing to me.

You have to use a version of haret that supports your phone. As X1 and X2 have not identical hardware (or do they?) someone has to code X2-support to haret. Until then it will not work.
In startup.txt there is this line
Code:
set mtype 2006
This is for kovsky X1. For X2 there has to be a different value, but dont ask me about that

It seems that your sd-card has no partition. If you use linux, you can check this very easy. On windows, you can try to reformat the card.
You can also try another card.
Woudnt it be possbile/smarter to put the android on your xperia's internal memory (when you have 300+mb free?) or woudnt there be any diffrence in speed?
can you install apps from the market
or do you have to manually do it (pasting the apk to the sd)
?
Hello,
I have a boot problem witk my HTC Tytn II.
I have read several treads with solutions but none of them worked.
At this moment when I boot my HTC, it starts with the screen "smart mobility" and then it goes to black. I have tried to get into the bootloader screen. This has worked a few times, but for some reason I can't get into it anymore.
I have tried the following things:
When I could get into the bootloader screen, is said something like this:
KAIS 130
SPL-1.93.0000
CPLD-8
I have tried mtty:
boot command did not work;
info 8 showed some bad blocks
set 16 0 did work
task 8 did not work (caused mtty to hang)
task 28 did work
task 0 did not work
I have tried Cmonex solution:
I formatted a 4 gb SD card with FAT32, then I downloaded and extracted KAISDIAGSD.zip and RUU-329-patch-nostuckinSPL.zip. I renamed RUU_Signed.nbh to KAISIMG.NBH and copied the two files to my SD card.
After a reboot nothing was changed, it still says "smart mobility" and then it dies.
So, now I am stuck, has my phone died???
Please let me now what else I can do?
Moved as not ROM Development.
Hi. I flashed this rom on a xperia x1, but i think i forgot to make the step with "running Haret.exe" from WinMob.
Now, when i power on the phone it boots but when android starts it cannot find /system/sh .. and the rest of files.
only fastboot is working.
Is there any way i can put those files on sdcard if i run haret.exe on another x1? or from linux?
or, is there any way i could return to winmo ? (i cant get in tri-color screen either)
no one?
come on ..
So what's the problem with copying the files via the card reader? Or installing my CM7 and pushing the files to sdcard via recovery? Moreover, going back to tri-color should always work if you hold volume down on boot
i push volume down, power on .. then green letters appears .. then .. it asks for fastboot or normal boot ..
I have all files on SD, but when android boots it gives some errors, cannot find /system/bin/sh .. and many others.
adb starts anyway, but if i try to push anything i get error .. cannot find /system/xbin/sh .. same error i get on adb shell too:>
I will make some pics and i will upload them later.
If you have any other sugestions ..
It seems that i did not press long enough the buttons
I did it all with patience. Thanks for help
