REL: RUU_Trinity_HTC_GER_1.23.162.2_1.38.00.11 (ZakMcRofl Edition 2007-03-21)

With the help of many nice guys on this forum and on IRC I managed to reconstruct a flashable ROM from a Vodafone VPA compact GPS romdump!
What does this mean? We finally have a working german ROM with GPS support.
I'll attach the readme for further details.
Enjoy!

Version 2.0 is released: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299577

ZakMcRofl's German Trinity/P3600 Rom with GPS (1.23.162.2)
==========================================================
Lange genug hat die deutschsprachige Community auf dieses ROM gewartet.
Jetzt ist es endlich da: deutsches WM5 Betriebssystem inklusive Support
für das eingebaute GPS-Modul.
The german speaking community has been waiting for this ROM for a long time.
Now it's finally here: german WM5-OS with Support for the build-in GPS module.
Über dieses ROM / About this ROM
================================
Dieses ROM ist entstanden aus dem Rom-Dump eines Vodafone VPA compact GPS.
Folgende Bestandteile werden geflasht:
- Crashschutz Bootloader (geschrieben von Des)
- Original HTC-Splashscreens
- Betriebssystem 1.23.162.2 auf deutsch von VPA (Danke an SN)
- Radio Rom 1.38.00.11 (gerippt durch pof)
This ROM is based on a Rom-Dump of a german Vodafone VPA compact GPS.
The following items will be flashed:
- Crashproof bootloader (written by Des)
- Original HTC splash screens
- Operating System 1.23.162 in german, taken from VPA (Thanks to SN)
- Radio Rom 1.38.00.11 (ripped by pof)
WARNUNG / WARNING
====================
Durch den geflashten Bootloader ist dieses Update zwar relativ sicher,
trotzdem sollte sich jeder Nutzer des Risikos bewusst sein:
Wenn beim Flash etwas schief läuft (USB-Kabel abgezogen, Stromausfall)
kann euer P3600 theoretisch für euch irreparabel werden.
Due to the flashing of a crashproof bootloader this Update should be relatively
safe. However every user should be aware of the risks:
If something goes wrong during Flashing (USB-cable removed, power outage) there is
a slim chance that your device is beyond (user) repair.
Installation
============
- Trinity aufladen
- Per ActiveSync verbinden
- ROMUpdateUtility starten und den Anweisungen folgen
- wenn SSPL kopiert ist auf dem Trinty den Programmstart bestätigen
- warten (nicht USB-Kabel abziehen, PC am besten während dem Flash nicht verwenden)
- Charge your Trinity
- Connect via ActiveSync
- Start ROMUpdateUtility and follow the instructions
- When SSPL is copied, confirm program launch on Trinity
- Wait (do not remove USB cable, better not use PC during flash)

juhuu!
big thanks!!!

Yesterday it was late when I released this ROM so I feel like the release was a bit rushed. For example I didn't have time to test it on a second Trinity.
So PLEASE, if you don't know what you're doing, don't update yet. Wait for someone with experience to try it and if he gives his ok, go ahead.
I'm pretty sure it works just fine but since we're talking about 500€ devices I figure a warning too much doesn't hurt.

Great Work !!
I've just done it.
And it lokks like it'S working.
Today I'll test it, first of all the GPS_modul with the Tomtom.
Thanks to all

I have the following problem:
When I start the update progress and the screen with the progress bar appears on the desktop, I have to confirm the launch of a program on the trinity. After that I get on the trinity a screen, that has a red, green, blue and white field. In the red field it states TRIN100, IPL-SSPL by Des and so on.
In the white box it says: USB. On the desktop I hear the sound like the trinity disconnects.
Just after that I get an error on the desktop: "ERROR 246: DEVICE NOT RESPONDING". I then have to exit.
After resetting the trinity it works normal.
Any idea?

ulischultz, check this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297662&highlight=error+246
They suggest to re-run the updater when you see the bootloader screen (multicolour). And to check for valid Activesync connection.
Also, if you're using Vista for flashing you'll need to find the correct driver (Activesync 4.x driver). Its available here, just search for "Vista update" or something like that.
Obviously its easier to just flash it under XP if you have an XP machine available.

Yes that was the problem, that I flashed it with vista! I did it again now on XP and it worked!!!
Everything fine! GPS is working!!!
THANKS SO MUCH!!!

has something changed about the 4gb sdhc problems in this rom?

thx for your work....

Do I have to unlock my german device or will it work without unlocking? Do I lose the warranty if I flash my device with this rom? Thx for your work!

I disagree with me_phisto:
You don't need to unlock it, simply flash it.
The warranty is a different issue. If you flash back an original ROM before you send it in, you'll be fine. Especially important is to flash an original SPL instead of the current crashproof one.
Good luck, give it a try

I´ll give it a try for sure later this evening. I´ll report back on the PPC-Forum. Since I have to send it in sooner or later due to the peeling problem I simply reflash the original rom. One last question: Is there any Vodafon branding (will the HTC communication manager still be there)?

There's a differenc colour layout but no real branding. I guess this is done in the VPA ExtRom which I don't have access to.
CommManager is there.

great, I use the prog syscolor to change the color anyway.

Problems with Synchronisation with Outlook
This German ROM Update makes a good impression, but I have a problem with the synchronisation with outlook. The Dates / The Calender doesn't synchronise. Only the contacts, mails and notes are on the Trinity, not the dates.
Does anyone have a solution?
Pinggi

Yes, the activesync issue is a know problem.
I don't know the exact reason but it goes away for most.
You'll find a few things you can try in this post:
http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showpost.php?p=856417&postcount=32
If possible, let us know what change fixed it.

I had the same problem with active sync.
My solution:
i've updated my active sync. (from 4.2 to 4.5).
i've deleted all devices in active sync.
then i restarted my notebook and connected my Trinity.
Now all works create.
Thanks ZakMcRofl for the rom!!!

Downloading it now and looking forward to using it! Thanks a lot for your work!!! Very much appreciated!

Thank you ZakMcRofl,
Finanlly we get a German GPS ROM. Works pretty well. Bass was flat first but installed the Bass Fix for every ROM and now it's perfect.
@n0b0dy: Thank you for the hint with new installation of active sync.
Calender entries are syncronized now

How to downgrade back to WM 6.0?

Hi together.
I think I speak for nearly everybody who has checked out the "Upgrade" to 6.1: it's a complete failure!
There are so many softwares which do not run anymore making no problems on the original ROM. HTC must have known about Skype not to run anymore. Not letting the users know that this (to many of us important) software does not run anymore is something I would almost call mean. The second important software to me by the way is TCPMP, which also doesn't run anymore as long as mpeg-4 (Xvid) support is not removed.
I could not experience any(!) improvements so far, but many disadvantages.
So, in order to be able to use my Kaiser again, I would like to "upgrade" from 6.1 to 6.0 again. Does anybody know where to get the ROM? I have got the German version of the Kaiser and also would need the German ROM...
Thanks in advance...

As this is your first post , welcome to the Forum. Now for the unpleasantries. Please read the Kaiser Wiki and the forum rules before posting in the future. The short comings of Official 6.1 are well documented in many other exsisting threads. Starting a new thread on an exsisting suject is a No ,No here and against forum rules and will win you no friends here.
All the information you need is in the Wiki including all previous roms. Good luck and remember it is not nice to ask other people to search for information for you. Good Luck.

watch the great anticipation decline into disgust as you read through the thread

can anybody upload the official german wm 6.0 ROM for htc mobiles? I want to downgrade from 6.1 to 6.0 too.
i didn't found it here..

Check out the reconstructed ROMS link in my sig. In the future, read the sticky in the ROM Development forum and/or the FAQ.

Back to German 6.0, short recipie for dummies (like me)
Got my Kaiser back to 6.0! I hope it's okay to post it like this, saving beginners much time reading in wikis and other pages. As this concerns mostly German people I think I can switch language now.
Also, um das fürchterlichste Update aller Zeiten loszuwerden haben sich die Leute von XDA-developers etwas einfallen lassen. Und das beste daran: es funktioniert!
Hier eben eine kleine Anweisung wie ich es gemacht habe. Bitte keine Hintergrundinfos von mir erfragen, ich weiß mal gerade was man tun muss, um wieder auf 6.0 zu kommen. Was sich da im Hintergrund tut, naja, dafür gibt’s die Experten.
Was man braucht:
- kaiser-HardSPLv1.zip Gibt’s hier im Forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=53280&d=1191643466
- Das ROM:
Für den Original-HTC bietet sich an:
http://rapidshare.com/files/68746159/KaiserHTC_GER_1.56.407.3Reconstructed.rar
Ansonsten mal hier schauen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1586817&postcount=2
- Das Radio Update:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Kaiser/Radio/KAIS_Radinly_1.27.12.11_CustomRUU.rar
Falls die links so nicht funktionieren, einfach mal nach den Dateinamen googeln oder den Artikel lesen.
Schritt 1:
Um den Kaiser überhaupt „fremde“ ROMs akzeptieren zu lassen benötigen wir HardSLP.
Wie man dieses Update installiert schaut man sich am besten erst einmal hier an:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaCt5pUn6iI
Schritt 2:
Nachdem man alle seine Lieblingsdaten gesichert hat startet man das Update. Dazu gibt’s nicht viel zu sagen. Einfach den Anweisungen auf dem Bildschirm folgen.
Schritt 3:
Nachdem der Kaiser wieder hochgefahren ist und seine Software installiert hat, muss man noch das Radio-Update installieren. Sonst klappt’s wohl mit den Verbindungen nicht. Das Upgrade macht bei 95% eine Denkpause, geht dann aber weiter, also keine Panik.
Et voila, der Kaiser ist wieder „heile“. Ich hab’s genau so gemacht und alles funktioniert wieder, natürlich auch Skype!!
___________________________________________
Experiences with this Update.
From what I can tell after one week of using it, I can say that it behaves pretty much like it did before I x-graded to 6.1. The only thing that does not "work" anymore is the Windows Update feature. It produces a connection error. However, whenever I used it, nothing was found anyway. And as "Never touch a running system" is as true as it can be about the Kaiser, I think we can live without it.
Performance:
With 6.1 after sliding out the keyboard the screen hang for a second or two while it turned the screen in the background and displayed it quickly after being ready with it. Now it takes a second to turn it "piece by piece". A question of taste, I guess.
6.1: Sliding the keyboard gave a sound like "Dingle-drpfffkkrst-ing". Back to 6.0 is sound more like "dingle-ding" again.
6.1: With the updated version of TCPMP none of my videos really played smoothly, regardless which settigs I used. Back to 6.0 all my videos, .avi and .mp4, run very smooth. Mp4 files did run smooth on the windows media player in 6.1, but just not in TCPMP .

root user App for non-rooted Phones

Is there a way to give "ONLY" an app the root access on non-rooted phones?
e.g. use bluex with full funktion on an non-rooted phone
the Idea is: (Windows example run an app as Administrator (root) - when your a "normal" user
i dont want to loose my waranty on my brand new T-Mobile D G1

Afraid not, otherwise there wouldn't be a lot of point rooting phones You can always unroot again if you need to

Leider nicht.
Wenn du Hilfe beim Rooten brauchst, schau hier: http://android-developers.de/index.php
Not possible.
If you want help with rooting, look here.

ich wollte aber eigentlich das gerät nicht rooten wegen der garantie
Transtation by google:
I actually dont want to root the device because of warranty

Musst du aber, wenn du root benutzen willst. Außerdem kannst du das Gerät IMMER auf den Herstellungszustand wiederherstellen
Roote! Du wirst es nicht bereuen
But you have to, if you want to use root.
You can factory reset your device every time.
Root! You won't regret it!

mist, also dann doch das unslaved rom

Q: What does root have to do with the warranty?
A: Absolutely nothing.

Start asking your questions in the right sub-forum (Q&A) (Theme) or even in (General), or i will be forced to ban you for 3 days or till you learn.

Couldn't update installation problem

Hi everyone,
I've got my Mi A2 on Wednesday (in Germany). I set it up, installed everything and then wanted to do an update. It only showed the November Patch. When I tapped download and install, after downloading it, it started applying it, but then showed an error message:
Couldn't update
Installation problem
I've searched the internet, tried everything they suggested, even resetting my device, but nothing helped. Is there any possibility of getting it to work without having to flash the update?

Nice detail

Can't tell if my OS is legit

It's been a long.. long journey bouncing between being sure all of my phones are rooted, and being sure I'm actually insane.
So now I'm here. Unlocked pixel 5 with android 11
My first question; Is there a normal explanation for why Google would notify me that I'm running an older version of Android when visiting the "learn more" page for the pixel 5?
This is my first post, and I will attempt to keep the questions short and to the point.
Thank you.

This text in the help page is in the german version included too. You can ignore it, because everyone get this text passage.

Why would everyone get this message? It doesn't make sense why they wouldn't have fixed this, or completely removed it. I would love to accept your answer, but there are too many other things involved that keep me from shrugging off this notice.
If you can somehow show me that "everyone gets this" that would help.
Thank you.

In the german forum "Android-Hilfe" they talked about this and that's the reason why I know about this stupid behavior in the help pages.
