First I would like to thank the community it is by following your amazing posts that I have been able to get my phone upgraded to windows mobile 6.1 with gps and rev A.
1. I would like to know is there a easy way to flash just the boot splash back to verizon in case of warranty.
2. Is that a way to change the number of the bootloader and current rom number to match what you find on a stock verizon phone.
as when I took for phone in to swap it out because of a defective keyboard the checked the boot up number be did not notice it was wm6.1 lol
thanks again
sorry If this has been answer else where I did a Google search for here and ppx ggeks
Guys, you really should start using the wiki as that's what it's there for. There are stickies at the top of the forum and nobody uses them.
Every single one of your questions is answered in the wiki.
sorry still new around did not mean to be a noob
hey sreed77, welcome to the community!
gc14 is right, they are answered on the wiki but sometimes its tough to find info there, we understand that.
both of your questions can be summed up simply with one statement: dont return your phone for replacement if it is not stock. Its very easy to return your phone back to the stock config. If you ever need to, just download the SPL relocker. there are tons of links around here for that. Its made by the same guy that makes the original unlocker (2.4 HARD-SPL) and it basically changes that fancy multicolor screen back to the one that HTC originally shipped. at that point just go to htc's website and download the newest verizon rom. www.htc.com/us/ i think is the address and then click on support.
actually i take that back. install the new verizon rom from htc first then relock it. (it really shouldnt matter but sometimes installing roms will give you issues if you are not unlocked).
i have done this twice to my modded 6.1 phones. once you have downloaded the new roms from HTC, those will flash the current (non hacked) radios as well as the roms. everytime i have sent mine in, i dont even bother setting up the device. the first time the warranty people see my phone, they have to do the screen calibration if you have any other questions, just ask. this is a community of people who all started out not knowing jack at one point or another
Sorry folks, cingular8525 stuck with mobile 5 ??? I want to upgrade to mobile 6. Is there anywhere I can do this? Old provider whom i bought phone from two years ago out of business (edge wireless).
I have not known to upgrade to windows mobile 6 until i switched provider to att. Talked to htc, att, and others and apparently i missed the second coming of htc upgrade. I am not very savvy but need upgrade is there a place that is available for me to upgrade or do i have to buy some program? Phone cost me some money two years ago and att wants me to get new phone for their better internet service. I thought i had a GREAT phone already.
Thank you so much for your help. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
It depends whether you want a official rom for not as there are many people in this hermes forum who have cooked roms that run wm6/6.1 and now some are running 6.5 as the os.
Here is a link to the hermes wiki page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes there you will find other pages that tell you all about flashing roms onto your device.
Hope this helps and Good luck
yep, just follow the wiki and make sure u install hardspl before flashing any roms!
make sure u install hardspl
Glad someone remembered to tell them.....
I am struggling with my 2-day-old Sprint Touch Pro 2 and to the eye of the newbie I am, it has been crippled so badly, I'm on the verge of canceling the contract. I was patient enough to wait for about 4 months without a phone until Sprint releases this one but now I am so p1553d off I may switch back to iPhone (and before that I was an Sprint user again). Before all these stories I had (and I still have it on my desk) a WM5 iMate Jamin and it worked well without any need for upgrade (well, at least for ME).
But Now: Except for the start menu and and the one that closes the appz I can't use e.g. the battery indicator and sound volume icon on top of the Today screen. Plus I can't install 'advanced configuration tools' and a couple of other appz that used to work smoothly on my WM5. It feels like Sprint have totally butchered the OS; I mean I shoulda been able to do ordinary stuff at least. Paid 450 (no rebate yet) and it's a pile of shame.
Now the question: is there any step by step ROM upgrade process available for this special device, cuz I am afraid I mess up the whole thing upon upgrade.
PS: My ROM version is 1.21.651.3 for that matter.
Thank you in advance.
first you are in the wrong forum... you need the rhodium forum.
since this is primarily a gsm site i would head over to ppc geeks and check out the tp2 forum there.
as far as i know they are still waiting for a unlocker for your phone so no custom roms yet.

Thank you so much for your both corrections and directions. I am gonna keep an eye on that topic out there. Hopefully something comes out in coming weeks..
Hopefully, some experts will see this message and help us so we can start cooking our ROMs ....
We must be wait for it !
It's the htc's support who say me that in a mail
so?
still waiting? i think that even the staff from HTC, even the people involved in cooking ROMs think it`s not worthing to do this. personally, I bought one Iphone 3G at the same price than the Mega, and it took me 10 minutes to blackra1n it , so I think the Mega is a great disappointment
Since when did this become bash the Mega day? no one asked for your opinion, and this topic is almost 3 months old.
You have an iPhone, glad you're enjoying it, really I am. But you came in here to what? Boast? Newsflash, no one gives a stuff.
So whats the point of your post? Oh thats right, there wasnt one!
ı bought it last month but ı still waiting hardspl

Go to the more recent thread "HardSPL", someone is creating it.
This thread is old, I only replied cos the guy boasting about his iPhone really bugged me.

I didnt like his post too, this thread must be closed.
unless bepe, cotulla, cmonex or olipro get one there will be no HSPL either.
they are the people who make them, but they need to have the device to reverse engineer the SPL on the device to remove the protection
I'm willing to put $10 down now! (and i don't even have the device yet )
who's with me?

Rooting
Getting my X10 next week all being well (from T-Mobile UK) and will defo. consider rooting it (for Bluetooth apps and Wi-Fi tethering if nothing else).
Defo. $10 donation from me too
is root so important for X10 ?
How important the root is depends on how many people pick up development for it and their output. The more that do so the more likely someone is to come up with something you want. With this one both mediascape and timescape are developer extensible so there are options for adding in fucntionality there that you might not see available from SE. An no brainer would be making it so that timescape opened up a user specified facebook app instead of taking you to the internet page. Then there are things like porting it over to 2.1 sans rachael and similar. Probably the most obvious though is being able to remove the carrier bs and take control of the phone. Thats always worth a root for me personally although I have not bought a branded phone in some time.

It is important for any device. The freedom feels good.
Add my 10$ too.
Root root root beer!
I'll add my 10$ as well!
If I'm lucky, my new X10 is waiting at my office when I just get off this bloody airport.
First time I ever wanted a phone as I much as I do now.

Is that something useful in the Rooting process?
what is the benefit of "root" an android phone? I know it is a silly question for most of u, but i never had an andoid based phone , my first will be the X10, (from wednesday)
so if i root my X10 what is the main benefit for me? Is rooting means i might lose guarante?

rooting means titanium backup and nandroid backups which means you can switch roms and restore apps/settings back to what you had before
it means custom roms
it means root applications which are more powerful than anything a non root app can be
who exactly will the money be going to? And how much $ is usually needed for the developers to start developing?
Im getting my X10 tomorrow, and would love to rip the system image (or whatever it takes), so that you guys could root this beauty! But what do i need to rip it?
Yeah, root would be nice. I got my X10 yesterday, and I am on the fence as to whether or not I want to give up my Nexus One. I'm betting that root + custom ROMs + overclocking will make me feel better about my X10.
X10 needing rooting soon!

Got my X10 ordered, should have it tomorrow
Would like root for wi-fi tether so much, so looking forward to seeing how to do it when it gets figured out
sign me up for $20.
without root access this is just an expensive paperweight
I'll try to help out, I need someone that can try a few things for me so I can look at what could be possible with this device
