Tried to make a copy of my ROM to SD Card. Dialog Box shows it copying but after completing in 6mins or so nothing shows on the card. I want to back up prior to copying XDA ROM and unlocking. Any advice would be appreciated.
well
you dont really need to save it on your sd card. You can just back it up in a file on your pc. click the browse button beside the combo box(ie the button with 3 dots) and select a name and a path. it would transfer the os to your pc and u can keep the back up there where its safer. :wink:
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I've already tried that and I just get an error message - Unsupported target filetype - don't know how to write destinationfile c:\Program Files\etc...
well
okay this is what you'll do :: put this line in the destination "c:\rom\os.nb1"; for the source select the combo box then select from device and it should work. if it doesnt then reply me asap. :roll:
Thanks again but unfortunately entering c:\rom\os.nb1 in the destination dialog didn't work. It returned: error opening c:\rom\os.nb1 for writing. The system cannot find the path specified. error opening target device.
Well
PS. Should also add I didn't quite understand your reference to "for the source select the combo box then select from device and it should work. if it doesnt then reply me asap

check the image i just sent u. ull see what i asked you to click for the source.(Device Memory (current rom))
then for the destination clikc the 3 dots on its side and type in a name eg os.nb1 and lcick open. :!: :?:
Cool
Thanks, man. It looks like that's done the trick. It's currently copying. Once that's done I believe I need to load the XDA ROM to facilitate the unlock. Many thanks for your help.

no probs men. but i need to unlock some 2 more phones an am having a hell of a time. my bros samsung e700 and my dads hp6315. do u by any chance know how i can get that done
I wish I could reciprocate but unfortunately I don't know much about my Wallaby let alone those you've mentioned. I've just downloaded the XDA ROM and my device is not accepting it. Reading stuff on the forum to try to figure out what the problem is. Don't want to take away from your other problems with the Samsung and HP but let me know if you've heard of any problems as to why a device won't accept the XDA ROM. I'm probably doing something wrong.
Cheers for now.
okay i see you really do not know much. now all you have to do is get the special edition rom u get. then use the same program u used to backup your rom to upload the new one. i really want you to be 100% sure you have a back up. then duplicate the back up for safety reasons. Then extract the speacial edition rom. if its just the rom u got the use the program to do it. if its the whole installation u got a progamm called PROGRAMME A should open and it will guide you throught. Then i hope your phone is a wallaby/qtek 1010/ o2 xda/tmobile MDA they are all the same. else your better stop now. then why dont you lets chat i think it had be easier. yahoo ::nowoxi or msn ::[email protected]
Unfortunately, I haven't IM loaded currently. However, what you told me is a big help. I do have the MDA version of the phone so I'll try that when I get back as I have to leave right now. Thanks again and I'll keep you posted as to how it works out.
Hi nowoxi,
got a problem with OSImageTool, I did my own ROM copy but now how can I upload it to my device in case of need(mine is 2020..)? Do I need a SD card or I can do it directly from the xda image program? Many thanks
P.S. if you find a Yahoo mess request,well...it's me!
Didnt really get your compostition. I dont know where to start from or what to think. I know you have a problem and i know its with the ostool but i really dont get (understand) what your problem is. The rom u said u have. is it one you cooked up or the one on your phone before. then wher edo u wanna send stuff to. your phone or you wanna backup the one on your phone :?:
Sorry for the confusion, here's the story.
I'm the owner of an Orange SPV m1000, I received it last week and don't know much about PocketPC....my device is an English version, I'd like to convert it to an Italian one. I found an ITA ROM (it's for Qtek 2020 but it should work..) and soon I'd like to try to flash it. In case of need (maybe something wrong in the flashing...) I'd like to keep a copy of the original ROM installed in my device so I used XDAtools to get one, as you explained in this thread. Now I have this .nb1 file in my pc and the question is: can I upload it from my pc directly in case something goes wrong during the upgrade flashing? Or should I copy the .nb1 file to the SD card first and then try to flash from it ( but in what way?) ? Hope to made it clear now, thanks to your help!
P.S. Still looking the forum for a guide on using the imagetool....please be patient :wink:
Well you can restore it directly from your pc. just follow the steps in the thread. for source instead of selecting something in the combo box. click the 3 dots at the side then use your phone as destination. i hope that helps you out.
Sure thing!
Just one more question: what happen after I have finished upload the .bf1 file to my device with imagetools? It's a kind of autostart procedure or do I have to make some move? Thanks again, bye from Italy
nowoxi
I'm back and about to try to load the XDA ROM based on your instructions. However, question: do I have to removed the existing ROM from my device or will the XDA ROM simply overwrite it?
Hope you're around this Sunday evening/Monday morning!
Cheers
The rom will be overwritten.

tried copying over to prophet but have not done any modification yet. Looks like we need more changes to make it work in our device. Guess I need help from experts here. Below is the screenshot of my failed attempt.
i hope someone will make it work well on our device !
can't wait to have this new keyboard, it seems awesome
there are two things that i need to do now...
1. get the mapping right...which I am trying figure out now
2. produce it as a cab file so that everyone here can use it...have to worry about this later since i have no experience creating a cab file
it's working on my prophet now but for some strange reason it only works in Word mobile I don't know why but I'm looking into it
Edit:
It works in most apps but only when making a new file or document.
i had little success, suspecting picture files are not complete. if you looking at the entire sets of image file, you will probably see various file similar to those in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331155 and registry key may have point to the wrong files as well.
as for me, i managed to get to the stage same as shown in the thread. but after typing a few keys , it went haywire....sigh...
Try this http://www.cootek.com/ and quity wasting your time ...
thanks..i have mentioned that to fellow members before. maybe i shld wait for the official release by end of this month
the cootek software is pretty nice
too bad there's no multilanguage support yet
Greetings. Been haunting this place for awhile, happy to finally have root.
After the phone is rooted the last step is something that sweeps up a bunch of SE's stock apps that most people don't want. What about us who actually liked a few of them, though?
I would have liked to keep the app called "TrackID," and am wondering if there's any way to get it back? I can't really find like a repository for the base APKs (I might want the Mixi plugin for Timescape back in the future, as well).
Can someone rip these out somehow for individual installing?
Here it is:
http://rapidshare.com/files/403753839/trackid.apk.html
Just install the apk.
Its works for me.
Nice threat, nice anwser.
It works fine with me too.
Thanks!
Preventing the rooting process from removing apps
Hello, You could just enter the step4 folder and open the cleanup.sh file in notepad or similar.
Remove the line saying rm *packagename here*. Then your app will only be copied to your SD, but it will also remain on the phone.
track id request
i couldnt download the package, the link no longer works :-(
Could someone uóad it again to another server? Because its a common problem and will br of much help thanks

ok... but now...
I have the app already installed, but now evertime it tries to connect it says "authentication error".... help?
I gave up and rooted the phone again, i went from steps 1 to 3 with no problems, using track id everytime to make sure it worked, and it did, I even used the cleanup script and it was there working very well...
So, I used steps 4 and 5 (for the X10a) But now it wont work... it says "authentication error".... what gives?
Sorry for my english, I´m from mexico...
Everything on my phone is working fine...
For TrackID I can only say that it was probably a rights issue.
Use chmod or Root Explorer to set the rights(644).
For step 4 and 5 i cant help,i have only a 3 step X10i ,sorry.
But dont give up, i think u find the help here on XDA.
hello people

Hi,
please flash your phone back using the sony updater on your pc, once you have done that go to the link below, read everything carefully, follow each step and you should get there-good luck.

thx for the answer
problem is i have windows xp 64bit, and i can't install android new version because there are no files for 64bit version (i think)
maybe i only need a complete theme, because it only disturbs me to see that sun pic on the bottom
btw, how do i install it?
i got universalandroot, but when i open it on my phone the install button won't appear...
I can probably send you your phone numbers and those photos of your holiday in Maui, but I'm inclined to keep some of the text messages between yourself and a Miss Kandy Trix... Unless of course, we can agree on a suitable price.
didn't understand that
Hi,
I've installed CM7.2 on my RHOD but the layout of HW keyboard is wrong. How can I change it to us layout?
Cheers,
Tom
It should 'detect' your keyboard layout.
Do other NAND ROM's have this issue?
I'm not sure, only NAND I tried was the CM7.2

At least give OMGB a shot...
Although, IIRC CM7.2 from Mr. Walter detected my keyboard no problemo. I'm sure we can get the right one shoehorned in, I'm just curious if it happens to you on other ROM's.
Ok, I've tried OMGB. The layout of normal letters/numbers seems to be correct but the function keys seem to be broken. Fn types @, Ctrl lights up the FN led but doesn't act like Fn, arrows are wrong (up is left, right is up, left is down, down is left).
Any more ideas?
Thanks
You could try copying the keyboard map file from the rom that worked to the one that didn't.

You never even stated which RHOD you have... I kind of assumed "US" layout meant one of the US RHOD's, but it sounds like you have something different.
So which one is it?

CM & OMGB were the only android roms I tried. Keyboard didn't work properly with neither of them. I used haret with win6.5 rom before. Can I use keyboard map from win rom?

WM and Android are totally different. Haret and nand android will probably work ok though.

I've got RHOD110 (got it in New Zealand).
The 100's have a awful time with issues, and you have an odd subset of that. No wonder you are having trouble.
You will probably have to make your own keyboard map.

This ^^.
I think someone might've made a layout for F22's rootfs - you can poke around there and re-use it perhaps. Otherwise, you will have to make your own layout. There's really not many with the 110, at least not interested in this project... so the layout isn't solid. I think the 100 still has layout issues with the FN and CAPS key as well.

One nice thing about NAND, the files are easily edited before flashing.
For example, CM7.2.0-RC1-rhodium-GSM-kernel-3.3.6-201200523.zip\system\etc\keymaps\ is where the keymaps are.
I'm not sure which one your device is getting mapped to... and I'm also unsure of what you need to do to get yours detected properly. Sorry I can't really help more...

I am having the same problem of an incorrect HW Keyboard layout on GBX0* + 3.4.17 kernel - update 11/7/12 using a UK Rhod 100. In system/usr/keylayout/ the qwerty.kl file is correct and can be editted and the changes persist after a reboot. I was able to map the end call key to home.
However the microp-keypad.kl file which contains the keymap for the HW keyboard is incorrect and matches the default layout in system/etc/keymaps/default. Any changes made to this file have no effect and after a reboot the files changes back to the default one. The files I need are in system/etc/keymaps/rhod100_uk. i have also tried editing the default layout files with no success. Again after a reboot they revert to the original files.
I had a similar problem with the CM7.2 NAND ROM. While using the 2.6.27 I was able the use the correct keyboard layout however after flashing a kernel update to 3.3.6 the keyboard layout was incorrect (and was the default layout).
I am unable to find any .kl files in the GBX0 zip and therefore I am unable to make any changes prior to flashing.
Thanks all those still developing for the Rhod.

GBX0* is a different rom than CM7.2, and will have many files in a different place. You would be better off making a new thread, or posting the the thread for that rom.
I see that this issue has now been tackled in the ROM development thread. I will download the new package. (Sorry I was unable to post in that thread)
