Theft Protection on Xda Removal!!! - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

hi,
Please could someone offer a bit of advice. I have recently decided to purchase an xda2. so i have decided to sell on my xda1.
The problem is that the theft protection is enabled and i was wondering how i disable it or alter it to the new users details.
I have nevered altered the details before as it was done for me buy the previous owner.
Many Thanks
Zetex

You cannot alter the details unless you burn a new rom.
You can disable it by deleting "IIWPO_startup.exe"
from the startup directory (but it will come back after a hard reset). Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply m8,
no i have a problem, do you know how i change the detail for a new user??
Because i dont know how to burn a new rom or has the files to do so??
please can you help me m8
Thanks alot
Zetex

You cannot change the details for a new user, that is the whole point of it, if it sees that the user has changed or no name is entered it will keep informing the "owner", the only way to get rid of it is to burn a new rom to the device.

Thanks alot for your help.
I have tried reloading the original rom from the O2 website, but because the one on the xda is newer than the rom on the O2 website so it won't load it onto my xda.
I have contacted the previous owner who is a well known member on these forums to see if he can help me (gazzaman2k), i'am awaiting his response, so hopefully he can help me.
If anyone has any ideas of loading the original rom back on i would be grateful.
Many Thanks
zetex

very simple. search the regestry for the old user name and you will find 3 variables, old user name, new name and the phone to send sms. in your case change the first and last so you can use it or delete the phone to stop the option.
you need regestry editor program and I think it is with this ROM.

HI M8,
I tried that but when i did a hard reset, it replaced it with the original number????
zetex

ah mate got your emails and found the thread lol.
It is my old XDA1 what i donewhen i sold it you was just locate the reg string and change it over to your details each time you hardreset it itll just come back the olny way you can do it is to:
burn a new rom and place it over it theres no other way and since jeffs kitchen burnt down theres only yorch's one :\ left but that does mostly american roms and i think it isnt as good as jeffs one
on the dvds i gave you there is the original v3.17 or whateer cant remeber its numbers you could try downgrading it to that as thats just a bog standard rom.
but im not too sure about downgrading roms :\
what ever you do just dont try to downgrade the radio version as that can lead to killing the phone.
only way might be to flash it using a sd card. its all i can think of at the mo.
gaz

hi gaz,
I when i changed the name, i think it says last user, current user & mobile number??? i can put another number in there, is that what you did for me when you added my details???
this will work providing i don't hard reset it??? it will be ok. but i have done a hard reset and now your details are in as last owner, new owner and a mobile i don't recognise????
I have tried putting the rom from the O2 website but it won't update because the xda rom that is on it is newer (v4.00 i think) the one on the O2 website is v3.17....
does anyone know the procedure to put the v3.17 (o2 basic rom) on. when you have v4.00 already on....
I really need to sort this out tonight so i can sell, it as i really need the money...
Please can someone please help me i don't mind if its a basic rom. as i just want to sell it on....
Thanks to everyone who has replied
zetex

shizzer thats my dads mobile :| youll have to do what i said with the developers v1.2 thing i sent you via email. as my dad will go mad getting thousands of texts and im sure the guy you sell to will get upset too that his credit is draining every second.
if you cant do it send me the cradel and XDA + the ruturn P&P and ill get it back to normal for you but downgrading to xda developers v1.2 will put it back on pc2002 which i think is a crap version of windows mobile.
i have the files for v4.00.05 but they require to be written by bootloader way which is very scary to try lol

Gaz,
Thanks for the offer m8, i may take you up on that if the person i sold it to can wait..
i have emailed you about resending those files m8 and i will try and do it myself. I don't mind if the pc2002 is put on it as i just need to sell it m8...
I have been having a look around for a later version than v4.00 that is on my xda but i have been unable to find one, if anyone can point me in the right direct in a .exe format that would be fantastic just to get over my problem....
Thanks alot
zetex

only later versions out are yankee versions mate putting that on and youll loose the 1800mhz band so that means no orange/one2one
anyway sent you an email on how to do it:
ahah ! i know
get DVD 1 i sent you.
go into progs p-z
find......
XDA-developers-SER-v12.zip
copy it from the cd onto you desktop.
then dont unzip it...
just double click it it will then begin to self extract a dos box will pop
up.
b4 you do this make sure the xda is in its cradel and plugged into the mains
charging.
wait about 30 secs for it to stop doing activesync crap....
after then double clci kthe file and wait for the dos box to come.
then a windows box will pop up telling you about it all.
make sure you read it thorugh very very carefully and follow everything it
says
good luck mate
gaz

thanks alot m8, it now sorted..

Newbie!

Hi there people,
Boy have I found the right site ! This is just what I needed ..
I bought my 02 XDA last week (UK) and thought it was the dogs danglies ... and being a little technically minded, just knew it was gonna be upgradeable and have some really cool stuff. But this takes it into another realm...
I've downloaded the 1.1 exe file kindly supplied on this forum, but as I'm still getting my head round the machine and Active Sync, haven't had the balls to upgrade the ROM - not being funny but is it really as good as it sounds ? Can I get into difficulties with warranties etc if it goes wrong ?
Also, is the exe file really all I need ? As I said I'm not afraid of a technical challenge, but I ain't done this before, and would probably shy away from getting to far into the guts - if ya know what I mean ?
I'm going to continue reading every bit of this site, so apologies if these questions have been answered before, but I'd be grateful if one of you good people could reassure me before I do anything dangerous !
Oh and by the way I'm not connected to the big bad world yet, still waiting for number port, so I'm just playing at the moment, but I can see where the desire to change certain things comes from !
One last question - Something is really bugging me, why do the programs stay running in memory when I've closed them ?
Thanks and keep up the good work !
Yes, the exe file is all you need. Yes, you can get into trouble with warranties, but only if you don't flash your old ROM back in before returning it.
You can create a backup of your old ROM using an SD-card, a PC based SD-card reader and our program XDArit. But if your provider offers an upgrade available on-line, you can also flash that when something breaks.
oh fantastic - thanks
sorry for all the stupid questions but does your ROM still contain Active Sync ? I'm using it and find it really useful - or is there something better ?
Oh and I upgraded the version of pocket office to 3.17 the other day as I was getting connection problems while synchronising. Does anybody know anything about the new ROM version ?
I'm also on Radio 4.20.00
and Protocol 32S54 (whatever that is
sorry it was early when I posted that and my brain wasn't functioning - the process of "flashing" the ROM actually requires Active Sync doesn't it ? i.e. the unit needs to be in the cradle attached to the PC via USB - that's how I upgraded to 3.17 - I had active sync running and then executed the download/install exe, which took control of the link and upgraded the ROM.
Does your ROM install work in the same manner or do I need to do something else/uninstall active sync or anything ?
No, you just connect the unit via ActiveSync, run Jeff's exe, and life is good.
excellent ! Thanks a million - looking forward to the changes..
great site and great ideas chaps - well done !!

Another dead wizard

Hi there. I have/had wizard g4, but after upgradin' rom by ruu my phone is bricked. he doesn't even respone to charger.
Now technical details: upgrade was done on i/spl 2.21.001/olip, so after hardspl'ing him. Everythin' went just fine, but in 73% i've realised that i'm uploadin' g3 rom... So i let ruu finish his job and now my pda is completly dead.
I won't be askin' for HELP, i will ask for info. Will anyone can tell me: if i take out 'disk on chip' (cause i think that's the flashrom chip), how i can reflash it? I mean: should i just put nk.nbf from 0x0000 or split rom image onto bootloader, radio and os and put it partially? what are adressess of those thinx and lenght of code? and how can i split nk.nbf?
Congrats !
What your are asking is not easy to do,it requires special flashing tools and connectors,which only the manufacturers and vendors have,It needs new bootloaders,you cannot do it yourself.DOC chip might have to be replaced,it means an almost new phone
Btw,have you tried to force it into bootloaders ? might be lucky,if it gets into bootloaders.well there's no harm in trying,if it does,then you might in luck and safe.
whatdy'a mean sayin' 'force it into bootloader'? if you mean pressing cam button while poweing it on- yes i've tried. i even tried to boot linux on desktop computer, connectin' wizard and typin' 'lsusb' in console, hoping that something like 'xxxx:xxxx unkown vendor' occurs. But, still no luck. even linux thoughts that usb port with connected wiz is free.
I know that only vendors and sevice-guyz know 'tricks' about connecting directly to DOC chip... but i'm still hopeing, cause i've found two unused connector places on mainboard(after disassemblin' of corse)- one in the middle, second next to sim card connector and i'm wondering if there's any chance to ommit BGA-welding(sorry 4 my english).
Have you heard about conspiracy theory ? i begun to belive in it... I think that many people know what 2 do, but noone want to help me from one particular reason: if someone helps me, i wouldn't need to pay in service, so someone will not earn money...
anyway, what do you mean about 'force in2 bl'?

First,let me clear you here, There's no such "Conspiracy theory" being practiced here in this Forum.It's a development Forum and not a Technical Advisory Service of some sort,where experts give advise and earn money.Its a free forum to help the newbies about the problem regarding their phones,We here believe in "Help & Support".The guys and gurus are not trained technical experts,its a voluntary website,where guys help and advise what they have learned and gained to the new guys joining and asking for help and they do it with honesty and to the best of their knowledge without any monetary benefits.
Secondly,Yes ! thats exactly what I meant for 'Force into booltloaders',cuz,may be if it does boot in the bootloaders,then it might be recovered,just a haunch,but if it doesn't,then its another dead paper weight on the desk.
Cheers!
I think it's a misunderstood there. I mean that maybe someone know what to do, but if it would leak to internet then services can lost money, cause what to pay 50$ i.e. if you can repair PDA by yourself?. I mean also that i've searched whole wide web... My polish sites of electronics, pda forums, even those forums where volunteers helps guys who crashed their bioses on PC's. And nothin', no one replies to mails, and if i ask someone directly they say thats no hope for me and my PDA.
I just cannot believe it... Even old PC had protection, if you uploaded wrong code into BIOS and PC cannot boot you always could ISA graphic card and boot from floppy.

focus on the problem:
tell me if u can at least see the bootloader ? If yes then u can have a fair chance of bringing urs back to life
It is because you are not supposed to flash a ROM that is not for your device!
For example, what will happen if you flash a AMIBIOS to a motherboard that uses AWARDBIOS (By your own way for sure)? Flashing G3-only ROMs to G4 device is just like that.
The protection for htc device is not letting you to flash a G3 only RUU in the usual way, you cracked to let it allow any ROM is your own problem, not problem of htc, and htc doesn't have to take care of it.

Do i cracked it? i just found ONE working ruu which allowed me to upload any rom to my device. i've switched nk.nbf files in folder wich ruu was in.
I know also that HTC wouldn't help mi, i'm not counting on warranty or manufacturer help.
No No...
You installed HardSPL to your device, so your device is already cracked (say patched may be better) by you.

uhm, it may be infatile question, but is it illegal? i know thah chaging IMEI is illegal, but is hardspl'ing too?
Cracking SPL is not an offense in law, just violate the warranty terms only.
2 starwonk: man, i'm from poland. i've bought my spv on polish eqiuvalent of e-bay. It's o2 xda mini s, so warranty is only valid in UK. i've told that i'm not counting on warranty. i need and must do it all by myself. and i will do it. Wish me luck

ExtRom exposed in DCD's 3.xx Rom's (w/full read and write access)

Hey guys,
a couple of people encouraged me to repost the instructions and files needed to have access to the ExtRom in DCD's roms.
I was reading the issues that some of u guys are having with dcd 3.12 release.
I to have had some issues that came up, but i was able to fix them because i had access to the extrom and added needed files and edited the config.txt to correct some settings.
I know there are some people who would like to use the ExtRom as extra storage and what not.
I was working on a project (im still in the middle of it) that changed the properties a little of the ExtRom and now it is seen as a "Mounted Volume", instead of the ExtRom. Had to be done in order to get it to be accessible with DCD's XIP's / Roms
It should work with most of DCD's recent rom releases, I take no responsibilty
for any damage this might cause, use at your own risk.
I have been using it for about a month on 4 different version of DCD's roms and have had not 1 incident because of it. So thats Y i thought i would share.
hope the instructions r clear enough to follow.
Enjoy !

Thx brother.... I'll test this NOW....

Does the "az" in azclown stand for arizona? reason im asking is that i live in mesa, az.

I work at the ATT building on the corner of university and alma school, im getting ready for work right now myself, ill catch u later
lol- Going to the Library for lunch today.... Around 1 pm.... Love the skirts....
Sorry I guess for wasted everyones time since no one has posted to say if they had downloaded it or tried it out.
I thought for sure that their would be some people who would want to have access to the ExtRom in DCD's Custom roms.
Wouldve been helpful for me to get some feedback from someone, hell ANYONE, that it worked or didnt work for them.
NOT ONE PERSON HAS LET ME KNOW IF THIS WORKED OR NOT FOR THEM!!
I FEEL STUPID!! to think i was going to contribute something instead of taking for a change made me feel good. I worked for hours to try and figure this out.
I never imagined that there would not be a single post to tell me whether it worked for someone or not.
Well i dont think i will take up anymore of your space on this forum with meaningless posts. I will just crawl back under my rock.
Hey Bun, I know that you were having a shot at me because I was and still am interested in this. Sorry I havent had time to give feedback on the extrom stuff. I have been really busy for the past couple of days and havent had a chance to play around with my titan at all.
I will give it a go today and let you know if it works.
Thanks or your efforts. Every little bit helps when it comes to the titan. dcd gets most of the kudos on the titan forum, but lots of others have contributed too. Maybe your extrom work will find its way into some of dcd's work at some stage.
Don't take it personally. I would like to try it, but the boat I'm in now has me pretty satisfied with 3.1.2, and am not planning on recooking until a new release is out. Any rom stuff right now is to try out the ppckichen stuff. I just think your timing was a little off. People will use it.
Someone posted in ppcgeeks that they get an error message when using the BuildOS instead of the BuildNB.bat that comes in DCD kitchens
Just a heads up, I only tested this with the BuildNB.bat
Worked fine for me. Only problem is that because it sets the ext rom up as "Mounted Volume" it sits above Storage Card in the tree. Programs like Live Search and the option to save email file attachments on the storage card default to save on it instead of Storage Card. Tried to get it to change default but no luck.
I am going to try a experiment and see if i can get the ; device.exe / gwes.exe / filesys.exe / shell32.exe to run from in the "Mounted Volume" to possibly free up some system memory, u never know it might work!
Thanks gcincotta for the feedback/ i will see if i can change the order in which the drives are assigned in the reg, to possibly remedy that 4 u

U know i have tried to tell the other guys in the thread with "DCD 3.12 kitchen"
that some of the issues they were having with mms and data conection was due to the crap that gets put into the extrom by the sprint rom update. Of course they ignored me or told me and i quote " u will ONLY get stuff in there if u let Customization run, otherwise NOTHING will be put in there"
So basically being called a liar, i just keep it to myself and have rather enjoyed watching them get frustrated by not being able to solve their problems.
I found it rather odd that some of them insisted that it had nothing to do with sprint customization in the extrom , especially since i know they couldnt look into the extrom to see for themselves, I was just trying help them out. Im glad u got a chance to see what i was seeing.
hey gcincotta
i finally got around to finding the reg entry where the path for attachments and live search lead to the mounted volume/ lets see what a lil reg edit will do for this issue/ By the way, it appears that only Live Search and Attachments are put there by default, all the other programs i use do not store anything in the Extrom, so it isnt a real big drawback, versus having all the sprint crap in there,
if you want the reg path to change were attachments and live search files are kept let me know, I would post it but i dont think its gonna matter to u, cause u probably are running the DCD3.12 with the extrom hidden . So i wont waste yours or my time posting that info unless requested.
By the way AZ, u dont need a single thing in there unless u r with sprint

Well you are right and wrong. The extended rom gets written with all sprint stuff upon flashing the rom. It gets RUN if you let customizations run after the flash. It will never get run unless you let the customizations run, it will just sit in there and do nothing. So unless they let the customizations run, their problems were not caused by the sprint extended rom files, but they are in fact put in.
Az, you can wipe all that crap out of there...it's ALL sprint stuff.

noob retard needs help

ban me now.
i know i know, any hi! i'm new thread deserves beatings, and whilst i'm fully aware i'm tempting the wrath of you all by doing this....... but i don't know where else to look.
i got a htc hero 24hrs ago on orange (uk). upgrade from a sony k850i so i have never had a smartphone before. i have no idea what i'm doing with it.
i've looked but not found a RTFM page yet, or i am that retarded that i can't even find it. what i can find contradicts what i've previously read so i though i'd ask you lot....
anyway - grovelling apologies aside:
1) rooting - is there one simple way to do this, so far i have found 4 processes and don't know which ones to trust.
2) ROM's - finally found out how to get software for the phone-(shouldn't there have been a disk with the phone?) and have installed active sync. i have just downloaded:
RUU_Herrange_UK_2.73.61.5_release_signed_NoDriver
is that the best/most recent ROM? if not, what is?
i guess i dont know enough about the phone to know the differences and therefore where to start. does rooting your phone allow you to get access to other apps like cydia and icy for the iphone do for example? whats the point, apart from to enable read/write access on the SD card (whats the biggest SD Card a Hero will take by the way?)
3) radios? what difference does it make if i'm listening to queen or queens of the stone age lol. seriously, whats the score here and where do i look for noob info?
help me. people with iphones are telling me i did a bad thing getting a hero. make me wise in the ways of the droid.
please and thank you.
Hi mate,
I am no expert as I have only had my Hero a week and have come from winmo. But I have rooted my phone and installed a rom and it was dead easy.
1. Follow this video - http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-root-your-htc-hero-in-one-click/ where he says to unzip or extract the cm-hero-recovery.img file all he means is find it on your pc and just copy that file to the SDCard.
I would also recommend doing a backup after rooting your phone from that video. To do this turn ur phone off, then hold the home and power button together and that will get you into the recovery area, then just select the nandroid backup option.
2. I have used the Modaco rom and have had no problems at all with it, not sure if its better than the orange one though sorry.
3. When people talk about the radio file for the Hero they are talking about a file that enables the phone to recieve the mobile phone signal, it also enables the phone to recieve a wi fi signal etc. I even think it does GPS, basically these can be tweaked to get better reception, thus you can update them. I really hope that made sense lol and hope you get what i mean.
4. Oh and if you want to put a new ROM on ur phone then follow this video - http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-your-htc-hero/
If not just pm me lol.
brilliant - thank you.
is there a list of available ROM's for the hero anywhere and a list of what they do? ie benefits rather than a bunch of files names that have tweeked - they make no sence to me.
i dont know how you'd weigh one ROM up against another, to me it's like comparing chinese and japanese when you speak neither !
also is there an alternative marketplace, i know apple iphone has icy and cydia. i dont want warez just wondering if there's an alt. community as apple have out there (i'm thinking you guys are 'it' lol)
Don't think there is a list of ROM's as tbh the only good one around is the Modaco one. There is an Orange one out but I think people still rate the Modaco one as better, but I could be wrong in that. If you go for the Modaco one though you won't regret it.
As far as I know there is no other marketplace.
If you get into any problems in rooting and putting a ROM on ur Hero just pm me.

[Q] HCL ME V1 tablet stuck in a boot loop, power button only works when 100% charged.

Okay, I know I'm supposed to search seven hells (watching too much Game of Thrones) before I post my question. The intro video was clear enough about that. But no, nothing helped. So here goes....
Hi guys,
My HCL ME V1 tablet (ICS 4.0.4, kernel 3.x.x, rooted with ME U1 root via SuperOneClick. Several forums said that this root would work for V1 as well) is stuck in a boot loop. The rest button does not solve the problem, neither does a hard reset (it simply does not go into hard reset from all the methods suggested online across various forums). I scoured heaven and earth to find how to go into recovery for this particular tablet but none of the solutions work.
The power button works only once when it's in 100% charge (green light on the top corner of lcd). After that I have to wait for it to get discharged completely and recharge it once again. All those tips of pressing the volume up and/or down button along with the power/home button and the reset pinhole... none of them worked in my case. I know its a corrupted OS issue and I can solve it. Only if I could somehow get the tablet to boot once or get into recovery or download mode. I know it for a fact that the power button i fine because... again... I stand witness to the fact that the tablet has not experienced any physical shock what-so-ever since the day it was bought. Also not to forget it works once when the tab is in 100% charge.
I can see two scenarios by which the problem might have started:
1. I downloaded FL Studio Mobile apk and its dlc from pirate bay. I copied the apk to the internal SD card (straight on the sd card not inside any folder), and the dlc was instructed to be copied to sdcard/Android/obb. The uploader had said that if the obb folder was not there, I had to create it and so I did and copied. Halfway through the dlc copy, my laptop hanged. So I terminated the process from taskmgr and disconnected my tab from the "disconnect from USB storage" page on the tablet.
2. Next I opened Android Tweaker (Pro?) to tweak a few parameters so that FL Studio Mobile could run a bit lag free. I'm not a power user so, I just used the auto-tweak feature for the performance settings. Next I rebooted via the app and lo! The tablet is now stuck in an eternal boot cycle loop.
I'm an electronic musician and like to have these apps on my devices so that I can make music on the go.
Also one thing I should mention is that while rooting the /bin/su file could not be executed, however installing Titanium Backup Pro (Root) had solved that problem as there was an option in that app to fix it.
Sorry for the long post :cyclops: but I think my problem is somewhat peculiar if not unique. No body else's solution is working and I think there are not many Indians who use the V1 tablet.
Solved
Thank you everyone for not replying to this post. You may have thought that the solutions existed in someone else's answers. But NO. None of anyone else's solutions worked.
I thought this was a place full of experts, but I guess you people are way too busy with your own stuff to really help others which is the purpose of this forum.
Anyways, I solved the problem. The tablet works fine, in fact it works even faster. And just to rub it in HCL's face, I've upgraded the internal memory and RAM. Yes I resoldered the PCB. Removed all the bloatware and useless stuff from our dear beloved Indian manufacturer.
But I'm not going to share how I solved this issue. None of you took the time to reply, so non of u will get this piece of knowledge upgrade. Funk you very much :victory:

Hey bro,
I am newbie with this HCL V1 tablet and it sucks a lot to use this. I got it sent to HCL store for repairing (to flash) just after 3 days I ordered it.
As you are the user of this tab you should be very well known to the problems this tab comes with. Even its not playing the Subway Surfer game smoothly, wt the hell with 1 GB RAM.
So please suggest me the twiks for this tab as like working rooting, global or transparent proxy (needs in college campus because in college wifi works only with default browser with no download at all (only in androids, downloads in symbian, iOS) probably because download runs with external app by default in androids as it shows differently in notification bar about the download progress).
Please help me to resolve these problems.
Thank you.

You are proving to the world how racist Indians are to each other nothing else. And I'm not a Bori wherever the **** they are from. Its Borah you "madarchod ki aulad hindustani" Of course now you will report this to the admin and I will get banned from this site. Or you're gonna throw your cheap sounding Indian abuses at me, or you will try to act like a smartass and type a nice sophisticated sounding comeback to make people sympathize with you. What else can your beta-male-Indian-ass do? Either way, you are insignificant to me and whatever you say is invalid in my world. And thank you for quoting me because finally I got a notification from this website.
For the rest of the people-
This thread is almost one year old now if you know how to read the English calendar. The FB account that was linked to this has been deleted almost a year ago. I don't exactly remember the solution but I cracked open the tablet, took out the ROM, took it to a friend who burns ROMs.
This tablet was meant for my dad which is why it pissed me off no end that it should malfunction. Eventually I threw this piece of **** in the trash and got him a Samsung tab that works the way it is meant to work.
My advice - save some money and buy a higher end android tab and your life will be much more peaceful. Unlike iOS where the hardware platform is pretty much standard, the wide variety of configurations on which android is installed is the main culprit here. You want smooth performance, less lag, and bug free performance, and easily available non-factory support? Honestly start saving money and get a better brand tab. No where else in the world do people push these cheap ass tablets so hard other than the third world.
I understand you all want the best bang for your buck but understand what "best" is first.
Now, you'll can crucify me in your replies if you want. I don't give two ****s about it. Peace out homos!
Calm Down Bro ...
thande thande raho bhai jaan ...
pls help
