i am using prophet mobile xda neo with wm6 (transform 1)
today all of a sudden the touch screen stop working .. that is, it does not recognize the taps ... i always used protector on it ,after this problem i removed protector ,cleaned screen ,HR mobile ... downgraded it re-flashed it again but the cell is stuck on "TAP ON SCREEN TO SET ,...... " message ....
i am unable to do any thing with it .......
i need your help and suggestion ... please do help me ...........
that's more like a hardware problem. I dont thnk you can fix it with ROM flashing nor it has anything to do with screenprotector on/off. I would suggest that you get it fix (unless you are very comfortable in opening the unit yourself). I'm not sure if this is Prophet specific, but I do read at somewhere that, the connection between the screen and the motherboard are somewhat unreliable.. especially after a bump or so on the phone itself.
thanks a lot .... one more thing .... can i get the information about opening my prophet ..... i will open it .. if i get "how to...." matter on it. thanks in advance.
I wonder around all the forum, but I dont remember having a Prophet manual. However, as prophet is somewhat similar to Magician and Charmer, you may get a hint on how to open a Prophet based on those manuals. There is definately a how-to-open-a-magician PDF somewhere in this forum (which I've used it to open my ex-Charmer) and I know there IS a Charmer service manual somewhere here, where there is a guy offering HTC manuals in his website. Try your luck at the Wiki section, or try googling this forum (i.e. using google to search within this forum).
UPDATE: This is your lucky day. I just did a serch and it seems that
Mike Channon has a collection of links for it. Is this in the Wiki ?!
http://www.modaco.com/HTC-Service-Manuals-Dis-t258716.html
thanks a lot dude ...... i saw the pics too and i can open it (even though the comments are given in russian, it would be more beneficial f it would be written in English ) ... but the second thing (if any one can tell) how i will find those cables which works with touch screen ..... and what exactly i have to do ????? please help me once again ..... i will be thankful to you .........................
i am still wondering ... pls guys help me solving my problem ... i am living in a small township in india and i dont even have any good service center nearby ..... i have to solve it by myself....... pls guide me to solve my problem.......
thanks ..............
Help needed
Mine has done the same thing, I have opened it and found that the connection for the screen appears to be damaged and have ordered a lcd + digitizer from US ebay for about US100 incl postage (from china) which even if it is not the connector should hopefully sort the problem. I used google translater to help with the russian dismantling instructions. I have noticed there is someone who sells the screens here too...

Hi All,
after reading many posts and searching for answers to my questions I think this might be the place to post my questions concerning my HTC X7500 ; if not please don't be .. I've just signed on to this -I must say great- forum.
Ok here we go;
I am Dutch and own an X7500 and upgraded to WM6 using Advantage_HTC_NLD_2.21.404.1_1.50.00.00_Ship.exe; as you can see the language is Dutch. No tweaks; just plain WM6.
After several mails to HTC support asking for a DL link for WM6 english (if i'm correct WWE) I was told the WWE version was not due until 2 weeks.. uhuh; X7501 ships with MW6 and in English so there should be sw out there for me. Googling brought me to this lovely site and to Duttythroy's post of 31-08-07. Installing Advantage_HTC_WWE_2.21.405.2_1.50.00.00_Ship.exe failed.
I have several guesses why but am just not sure.
So my 1st question is;
What must I do to install WM6 in English on my X7500? (if it kills my warranty, no problem; just should work). Can I also install the upgrades/updates mentioned in topic "Athena Project Black Touch Edition by PK".. Love how it looks!! if the 'feel' is as well..
The 2nd question(s); Could anyone point me to some specific reading material related to upgrading issues for smartphones? eg HTC's X7500. I'd like to understand the principles of it all. Is sw always HW related or are there some 'baselines'? Is a ROM, phone specific? Is firmware referred to as ROM? Those basic things.
Why these last questions? I'm a former IT engineer/manager who stepped out of IT business and ... opened a restaurant. IT is still a hobby but I 'miss' the last 3 years of phone sw selfeducation..
Thx for any reactions and any time anyone will spend on my post.
cheers,
Hans

Sorry for such short answers but i'm headed to bed but still wanted to start you off:
Upgrading Phone
- Take out SD card
- Use Olipro's unlocker to SIM/CID unlock your phone (All three steps)...more info on this forum.
- Install ANY Athena (x7500/Dopod/Ameo) ROM you wish (read around and you'll pick up on what others like)...you can do this either from Bootloader or after the ROM sets up.
- Reinstall your programs.
More Info on Phones etc
- Read through this forum
- Check the Wiki (you'll find it if you read through the forum ;-) )
- You can also read through other device threads to gather a little info on what they do. The forum has 90% of what you need already
Maybe someone else will pitch in and answer questions in more detail.....nite all!
Thx a lot Itxda,
I stayed up late also and read myself trough the forum.. took a lot of coffee and some beers Was my day&night off; was fun again to 'dive into' IT related stuff..
I came to the conclusion that I had to follow Olipro's unlock routine 1st, but it's very nice to have it confirmed!
Unfortunately I cannot get sound playing the video from Agent Bignose.. Other video's youtube etc play with sound so.. 1st have to fix that although I have a clue what the vid. msg holds..
After reading trough the - I like it better and better! - forum I expect that the re-installation of my x7500 will go smoothly. ehh hope so
Again thx for the response; If I find the time I will try to make a 'understanding x7500 for dummies' with my experiences which some of you might fine tune. Will save you Senior Members time explaining and will help me understanding the big picture better.
Is that ok with you?
Cheers,
hans

Pefection! Just let us know where you get stuck and we'll help along. Take care.

Just one check before I go nuts; Does any of you have sound playing Bignose's Video?
Tried out on several independent systems; nada.
It's not 1st of april. So no sound probably in vid.

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

Dear freind
Your gene is old gene and u bricked it with HSPL for new gene...
now there is no solution to unbrick a old gene.....
Reverse is possible...u can unbrick new gene flashed with old gene HSPL...
but in your case you need to the service centre...
Anycase it was ur mistake...krazy has clearly mentioned to use olip method first....so u need not to show ur angar in the forum....
If u need help u need to be polite....
correct
ya imblfmstr, I am completely agree with you.
Because that will not work for old to reverse.
It will only work on new gene.
I have got the same issue on New gene so mtty method worked for me.
I have not tried it on old but if you already tried the mtty on old and you got no success then service center is the only option.
They will replace the rom with the default setting or else if ossible they will restore the current to default.
And no one is selfish here everyone is giving there best for to solve problems. you can see this by going through the forum correctly...

You Just have 4 post , and joine 2 month before and you talking like this .
You should search and read carefully and you will found every issue related to this device have been discussed here .
But i think you are not ready to read , you want to give orders and take replay ( HOW?)
How you talk about selfish ,and you want every one here to leave all others problem and question and come to help you with something that we already discussed before , and no result for your problem until now .
How you talk about selfish , and all great people here teach us and give us nice roms and tools free , just for helping others
Buddy , if you want to ask for something, you should search well then ask and once some one read your question you will got replay .
Please see the posts I have hyperlinked in my signature. That will answer all your queries.
Regards,
Hey sunnymobile,
Don't use such rude words for the people here.
People in this forum, infact the entire xda-developers.com team, is great in helping each other without any selfishness.
Even I had bricked my New GENE using the HSPL of old GENE a year back. At that time there was no unbricker for that. But I was confident that somebody here will come up with a solution.
And I had waited for almost one year for the solution. Then finally Orefkov came with a solution to unbrick it.
People here are brilliant in solving problems, we just have to maintain our cool, for other to find a solution.
People here take such a pain to just keep our GENE's up to date. We should respect them for that, instead of cribbing that no one is helping us.
Its our foolishness that we brick your mobiles without reading/understanding things properly. Why blame other for our mistakes ??
Guys, chill he is gone i guess. There is no need to answer threads like this. Just leave it on its own. Remember, we are selfish to sunnymobile
thans from sunny mobile
i m sorry for my rood words.as i say the people are selfish here.i did not mean that every one is selfish.dont it my words so personals.i know that every one here tries to help each other.but in my case no one was relying me.so i was frustrated.i m from pakistan.hope some day some one will find the unbrik solution for htc p3400.thanks to all friends for replying my last post.wish u best of luck

@sunnymobile
Now you are talking business. Thats the way to go buddy.
Don't be frastrated, I know how it feels to have bricked our mobile, because even I had gone through the same frastration. So I can understand your situation well. Thats the reason I had shared my experience with you. And asked you to maintain your cool.
For some problems its very difficult to find a solution, so it may take some time for somebody to come up with an answer/solution.
So don't lose hope, just keep an eye at xda-developers, you may never know, some day you may get a solution.
Dear Sunny, the only possible solution in your case is to send it to service center. there was nothing we could do more. What should we tell you then? And whether you are from Pakistan or from any part of the world, you are no different for us. A buddy is a buddy irrespective of where he comes from, religion or race. We dont even know the location of many of the people here
im sending u a PM chek it @ summy mobile

Rightly said krazy. The cyberr doesn't have any religion, caste, creed or nationality. we are of same breed bound by a common bond (in this case Gene!).
so, it hardly matters from which ppart of the globe you are from.
And as I did already, will again suggest you to visit a service centre
@Sunnymobile,
See how many people are trying there bit to help you out. You should thank Haree for atleast giving you a ray of hope.
People here are really nice and very helping in nature, some times help may come bit late. But it does comes.
One more thing you can try is call HTC costomer care, or you can even email them. You can email them from there site, using the support > Customer service > email option. And ask them where can you send the moblie for service.
Good Luck man.
@haree : So nice of you buddy, to have contacted somebody in pakistan to help sunnymobile.
@Duron23
hi
this was a guy who had contacted me in the forum while i chatted with him on MSN he said he was doing mobile biz(at Pakistan) so i gave this contact to see if their is some chance summymobile could be helped hope it helps him just trying my best to help thanks for ur appreciation
i learn t this habit from nice guys like Krazy,ankit,addicted,ramersonw and many many more here

Ok a few days ago I wasnt paying attention and I installed a ROM on my LG Optimus G and when I restarted, it did not reboot. I have read a number of different forum topics on the subject and done a number of things to attempt to fix it.
From what I read, when the device shows up as QHSUSB_DLOAD in device manager, it is end game.
Ok well I did not immediately give up. I found and installed the Qualcomm drivers. I tried LG FlashTools. Of course to no avail.
This guy on EBAY (item 281151982662) will fix it for $24.99. I think that is a fine deal and since I have exhausted my other options, I was preparing to send it off to him.
AND THEN I found a link to "www(dot)zpsjbbs(dot)com/thread-5097-1-1.html -THIS FORUM POST that implies it may be fixable still with a software solution!!
The challenge is of course, that the post is written in Chinese. Google can translate and I feel I will be able to decipher it and search for and find the various pieces of software and try it out.
Question I have is, is it worth the time? Is it possible? Has anyone tried this method? Anyone have English explanation of it?
Thanks in advance. This is my first post here so I can not post links.
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=lg-optimus-g
Try catching Shelnutt2 on this link. This has come up in the past and from memory there is a Qualcomm tool availible, but I am not sure if anyone ever got it to work. There were hex files needed if I remember correctly.
Please , can you tell us what went wrong ?? so no one else tries it if they read it ??
Ive played with the Programs, Its QPST and the hope that it offers up is limited, but Im not a dev either. I can get it to a certain point and that's it, u need hex's off a working phone to get another part of the phone to say ok to get another part of it working... or so it seems, but Im all in on this if anyone wants to dable, this would cure a lot of woes if we hammered this topic. To JTAG my phone it cost 60 bux so the ebay deal if hes credible, is a good deal
