Hey guys! New to register..not to forum. Sorry about such a long first post, but I try to be as clear as I can, so you guys get my problems! I'm not sure where to post this, but this looked pretty good to start! BTW...I REALLY have searched everywhere, INCLUDING the "Bible" but to no avail. 2 Important (to me anyway) Questions. 1...I have my Amaze Rooted...Unlocked and S-off. I'm using the "Energy ROM" and have changed the Bootanimatio.zip for video..and changed the Android_audio.mp3 for start up...works fine. I also liked the "Energy" shutdown screen (TV shutdown) so I left that. I then added (through .xml) a Down_Audio.mp3 file...WOW! That worked GREAT! Now problem 1... After S-off, I had to re-unlock HTC Bootloader..Done! Then had to re-flash "Energy ROM" ... no problem. When I went to re-install Bootanimatio.zip plus the audio, it worked fine, BUT NOW I can't get the Down_Audio.mp3 to work!?!?! I have check, re-checked, and triple checked the path and it SEEMS? Correct. I believe it's right, because when I change any parameter, the front Bootanimation.zip, or that audio doesn't work. WTF am I doing wrong?? The mp3 plays fine, and even if I rename it..it stills plays. It just seems not to be able to find the path...System/Customize/Resource/Down_audio.mp3.....Please HELP!
Thanks in advance guys!!
Nobody has experience with this??

Issue 2... The ONLY reason I stuck that wire in my phone was to be able to change that Dang splash screen! I've tried ALL of the downloads for this from this forum, but I keep getting error messages...Not Valid Command...Can't find path...path not valid...cant't find adb...can't find fastboot..plus others! These show up differently with every try..not all at the same time. I'm also not sure (see I do read!) How or if I need to flash a different Bootloader...I didn't when flashing "Energy". ANY help would be greatly appreciated from a long time viewer, and now member, of xda forums!!!!
Thanks in advance guys!!

1) You may want to try checking out your default.xml file (/system/customize/CID/default.xml).
Look under <ShutdownConfiguration> for the correct down audio name and location. If there is no audio="..." you may have to add that in"
Look at the <BootConfiguration> as an example
2) not real sure about this one.
Also, make a backup before editing any files, just in case something goes wrong you can always just restore to your previous spot.

Thanks for the reply! I did change the .xml files for both boot and shutdown..boot A/V still works fine. The first time I flashed the new ROM, I was able to add Audio="\ to the down sound and it worked...after re-flash is why it won't work again. Maybe I should re-flash the ROM..but I really hate have to recover everything all over again.

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
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.
David
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.

It's for the Diamond, but assuming it works on the Raph, Da_G, can you work your magic and integrate whatever's needed from here into your kitchen(s)?
OEM_Misc.dll
Extracted Diamond_audioplayback.exe contents, verified _Setup.xml, Platformxxx.reg and CM_Entries.xml:
- No registry changes
- Attached file is copied to .\Windows folder on device
Place file in .\OEM\OEMDrivers if cooking in kitchen.
Cheers,
Thanks -- trying it in my own ROM now ...
hilaireg is way ahead of me
ill check it out when i get home from the hospital! sounds good
Super-newbie question: What did you use to extract it from the EXE?
@Da_G:
Figured your queue was full enough as it is
@Wordsmith9091:
I used WinRAR 3.3 (IZArc 3.81 couldn't open the .EXE). Once it was extracted, I had a look at _setup.XML as it contains the short-to-long filename conversion details.
I renamed the pertinent files (previous post) and had a look at the content in those to ensure that there were no special requirements.
I used IZArc 3.81 to .ZIP up the file so that it could be posted here.
Thanks -- I learn a new trick every time I come to this site
Just tried building my ROM with it, all seems well so far, though I havne't played enough audio to test yet ...
... but I lost the ability to set button assignments other than Button-1-hold in the buttons panel -- it's like the stock behavior. Is that also controlled by this DLL?
Edit: Never mind, I'm a moron, this issue had nothing to do with this DLL
I don't think so ... the Stock HTC ROM only included "Button 1" which drives me crazy.
I've got a task on my list to deal with that I soon as I'm done some other kitchen related stuff.
I'll post up - unless someone beats me to it - once I figure out how to get button mapping.
Cheers,
I can't be 100 percent sure it's what interfered with button mapping, but it's the only thing I can think of that i've done different between builds.
Since this fix only requires a single DLL copied to the \Windows folder, I was able to cab it up using ChainFire's DriverWiz tool, and install it. I stream music via A2DP during every car ride, so I'll be able to test this on my ride home. I'll attach the cab if anyone else wants to try it as well.
You make me proud Captain
Following your lead, I have attached a .ZIP that can be used in a kitchen; to use:
Extract the .ZIP to the PACKAGES folder.
Verify that the <GUID>'s on the .DSM don't collide with ones you are currently using.
Remove the OEM_MISC.DLL from the .\OEM\OEMDrivers folder.
Cook away.
Note:
Tested on Da_G's (ERAS2R/Me) 21042 kitchen.
HTH,
HTC Diamond Hotfix..
Many thanks Captain_Throwback for the CAB, am testing Music Player now. The HTC version will not install on the Orange Diamond says 'Not Compatible'.
... 25mins in..clean as a whistle!!
....3 albums in, job done.
Never mind on the button-mapping question. I realize what I did (I think). HAd nothing to do with this dll.
Any info you can pass my way?
hilaireg -- PMed you.
Well, I drove around for a bit after cooking this in and reflashing, and I still got some skips listening to music in Kinoma Play. Don't know if that's Kinoma's fault or if it's a symptom of the problem this is meant to address. I wasn't getting any skipping with the TF3D player even before applying this.
improvement?
I saw a noticeable improvement in the length of pauses in between my songs while streaming over A2DP (though it did get stuck on me after about 20 minutes). Its better than it was . . . I think. I don't know if there's really a scientific way to test this, really. Maybe the problem this is supposed to address isn't that at all. Maybe we need to find someone who actually KNOWS they have this problem, so we can see if the fix really helps.
Hotfix for Diamond..
I have a Diamond on the Orange Network with the stock HTC 1.93 ROM. It used to skip every 5 mins but after installing your CAB it is now perfect, not a glitch. I am a very happy bunny. Thanks for your work Captain..

All I did was make the cab. Wordsmith found it, and hilaireg extracted it. Its a team effort. That's what a community is all about .

And if he has a diamond, he could probably just install the hotfix directly from HTC

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
http://balsat.hopto.org/builds/seX10-system/index.php?dir=..%2FseX10-system%2Fdir%2Fsystem%2Fapp%2F
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, I state that my English is poor ... hoping that I apologize for that ...
are now asking if anyone explain to me how to install Android on my TG01 ... are at zero with linux, so it must be a simple explanation ...
Thank you so much for the help

It's right there in VERY FIRST POST in the thread indicated to you! I will be surprised and shocked if you couldn't find it!!
However, in case you really struggled, here is the WHOLE bit copied and pasted from that thread's first post.
Now to run Android properly in your phone !
1.Download any of the builds we have around here.
2.Do backup on your sdcard or if you have additional one use this one.
3.Extract the file with android in your sdcard.
4. Check all the files are inside (sdcard/Android/AndroidApps"folder", media"folder",root"folder",clrcad"file",rootfs"fil e",startup"file",system"file",zImage"file",init rd" file")
5. If you want you can take everything from Android folder and pest it in root of the sdcard but you have to change default text (set cmdline"rel_path=Android change to set cmdline"rel_path=" or set cmdline"rel_path=sdcard") tri with one if is not working try with the other one. I thing the best is leave all files and folder in default Android folder and just copy this folder to your sdcard.
6.Check your zImage and Startup is for Toshidroid :OP (TG01).
7.First RUN haret without CLRCAD.
8.It take no more than10 min to run for the first time.
9. If it take more time RESTART the phone by pressing the POWER BUTTON for 10/20 sec it will restart and back to windows.
11.Try to do the same one more time.
12.If it still not booting to Android and you receive any error messages. Check your sdcard if there is space left in it. Check error message if it say that it can find some file or it can't create a data.
13. Delete everything from your sdcard and format it to fat32.
14.Start from the beginning.
15. If it still not booting to Android then check if you have all files and all set how it has to be.
16. Don't forget you can broke your phone. And we are not responsible for any damage you cause to your phone.
17.It is all up to you.
19. If I forget something sorry about just ask there are other memebers who will try to help you if they can.
20. Sorry for my English mistakes. I'm trying to fix them. :OP
Thanks to all people who try their best to make that possible: Markinus, Arash18k,Bally3,Endrix,Nyl,Arnookie and all other.
Please don't feel bad or offended by any of our posts, but I think the response to you was correct at beginning and we all at XDA do appreciate that the number of threads are kept to minimum and you follow the rule of 'Search before asking' as this keeps it easy for moderators as well as other new members or current members to find something they are looking for in a single thread rather than 10 different threads! Imagine if every new member started opening a new thread!
when it is finished you can put in the NAND as the HD2?
Hi everybody.
Many years since I have been on XDA Developers. I recently got given a Sony Tablet S and, in my search for info, ended up here. Great tosee the forum is still great and very useful.
I am from the UK and rooted my tablet yesterday (using methods and SW found here) in order to upgrade to ICS. All went smoothly but I have noticed that I am unable to use the infra red functions on my Toshiba TV and Sky Satellite box after rooting and upgrading. They worked fine before.
Would this be anything to do with changing region?
My world will not end as a result of no longer being able to control my TV and satellite with my tablet. Just curious as to why.
Anyone with explanations or a possible fix, I would appreciate some advice.
Also - and this may just be me - I noticed that if you plug a USB device in or insert the SD card, it creates a folder in the Storage directory which is empty but cannot be deleted. So I currently have sdcard, sdcard1 and sdcard2 and usbdisk1 - usbdisk8. Is there any way to remove these as when I try to delete using File Manager HD, it says no.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I cant give u answer on all but it have two things
First : i hope u did not do a gegion chance while running ics i hope. Strangely enough i thought device should brick but idunno if its supported already
Second : there should be an option to accept root browsing and changing try "Root Explorer" the blue app you can change things if you want. Dont know how much you can adjust change delete etc. Didnt tryed all ofcourse and i think your regular internal sd can not be changed. Permissions for example.

I'm changing my device region all the time, now I've got sony tablet P region lol
About thread/problem name 'Remote Control Not working after Rooting for ICS Upgrade' - what root has to do with remote control?
If you don't want to have it, then you can reflash your device with stock ICS zip without any mod, root etc. Remember that its 'one-way-ticket'.
Maybe tomorrow I will check xda forum, and will find a thread about 'I used AiO tool, my leg does not bend to the end'.
OK so, the point is that most probably its an ICS issue.
I've got not-US region device, got ICS on it,
and remote control works just fine!
Start with wiping device, then check, then if its not good for you,
then you can still downgrade your device, back to 3.2.1.
(more info about downgrade in AiO thread - FAQ section).

Maybe tomorrow I will check xda forum, and will find a thread about 'I used AiO tool, my leg does not bend to the end'.
HAHAHAHA lol xD
Thanks for the advice people.
Condi, thanks for taking the time to read and advise - It was your tool I used to root my tablet in the first place so that I could upgrade to ICS.
I think the point of my post may have got lost in translation a little. All I was saying was that before rooting and upgrading, I/R remote was working on my TV and Satellite receiver and after rooting and upgrading, it no longer does.
I just wondered whether the connection was known or obvious. I presume once Sony officially launch ICS in the UK, we will know!
Thx again
