Congrats to all hard working folks on this board... - HTC Excalibur

I know it's not much...but I just wanted to take a moment to congratulate all the hard working folks who've contributed their time, angst and energy on this board. It's because of them I was able to successfully convert my T-Mobile branded device into an unbranded device and am now happily using it with my carrier, Cingular.
Thanks once again.

Can you explain HOW converted Locked T-Mobile Phone?Because I Can't?

Please Help Reflash Prophet/overcome CID(Vendor ID) Error

First of all THANK YOU all of the Great Minds of XDA Developers for all the support and great work you do for us!
a lot of your work, support and software and advice has been priceless help!
Any way no ass kissing here, just wanted to say thank you. ...and ask for help. As you probably know, there has been a lot of problems and issues with Prophet. (and very little or NO support and from manufacture and from providers. and there is not much available from xda developers forum users on this device. Though there has been great amount of support on any other devices. which has made me a happy user of Magician. But to cut it short, PLEASE HELPPPPPPP with Prophet!!! I can't reflash my XDA Neo with new WWE rom due to CID (vendor ID) error! It comes with german rom and I don't read german but love the phone! (and stuck with 2 year contract!) I tried aWisard utility numerus times in hopes that it would work despite the design for different device. I tried all kinds of roms available out there with no luck. and ofcourse HTC or O2 wouldn't help in any way! (different O2 support
techs said to me that I couldn't flash my Magician with WWE rom becouse it would kill the device! And I had it flashed in all the possible languages!) Any way, my magician is now a history (sold) and my new prophet is great pain in a ass!
Do you guys think you could help all of the xda community (and unlucky suckers) out here and help us overcome CID error so we can update/change our roms? (and screw the HTC, Qtek, Imate and O2 for such a poor support!)
I would greatly appreciate it! and it goes from all of us!

New user SX66 need help

Hello to everyone.
Well let me say that I'm really happy my first HTC phone is in it's way.
I want to be prepared to upgrade to a good usable ROM, and if anyone can give me advice on this it'll be very apreciate.
I bought an SX66, and I'll be using it in Argentina, I need to know what's the best I can flash this device with.
I read SX66 Standardization Project but it seems to be specific for USA carriers, so maybe I'm better with another rom.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

Small question, Noob in Rhodium

Hello guys,
As you can see, I am a noob in Rhodium but have been flashing since Magician, Tytn ,Tytn II.
So I know what to ask before posting, so please do not bash me as I am a noob with Rhodium and never had this Warning Come before in previous Phones.
Warning:
This package is not intended for your device type!!
High chance of bricking!! Existing Now!!
I bought the phone SIM UNLOCKED as I am using another network SIM on it.
I get the warning when trying to Flash automatically.
Now my question is, Should I go manual as the warning says do not attempt Manual UNLESS Another warning comes. Nothing in the Noob section talks about this particular warning.
If anyone could lead me to the right path, it would be highly appreciated
Hope you guys welcome me aboard and start multi flashing as I did on my previous phones
What model of Rhodium do you have? Under the battery, there should be barcodes and RHODxxx, where xxx is a number like 100, 300, etc. For example, my Tilt2 is a RHOD300. See, you might have a GSM/CDMA hybrid device, which needs a different HardSPL (which is in development). The model number will allow you to know if it's GSM or GSM/CDMA. If your device is GSM, it still gives a warning, and you've searched for others with this problem, you should post in the HardSPL unlocker thread.
mine is a RHOD500.
Help me, what should I do.
I see We ve both followed the same path. Kaiser than Rhodium
Yeah, seems like quite a few Kaiser owners were waiting for a better upgrade than the Raphael, and went with the Rhodium.
Anyway, back on topic. You have a RHOD500, which is a GSM/CDMA hybrid device. Unfortunately, there is currently no HardSPL for the RHOD400 or RHOD500 (only the exclusively GSM Rhodiums have HardSPL). However, you can rest assured that cmonex and Olipro are working on it.
That is sad as I was really looking forward to turn this Rhodium upside down.
Coz i know it has high potentials.
BTW, wht is the difference between rhod100,300,500,etc... Why the different ones? Were there flaws that were corrected everytime?
Oh well, back to kaiser forum and pimping it out with Stylez
Cant wait to get here and start flashing and helping out with the testing
The difference in model numbers reflects changes in hardware (AFAIK). For example, the the RHOD100 is the European GSM version from HTC, with the front camera, but the RHOD300 is the AT&T Tilt2 without the front camera (it also contains a slightly different chipset). The RHOD400 & RHOD500 are both GSM/CDMA devices, and as such have different chipsets than the GSM only versions. If you remember that the Kaiser had models KAIS100, KAIS110, and KAIS100 (depending on the amount of cameras), it's pretty much the same thing here.
Also has to do with Radio Chipset. The T-Mobile GSM Only Rhodium is different than the AT&T GSM Rhodium. They have different 3G hardware to handle the different 3G bands used. This is also why the European one has a different Model #. They have different 3G bands as well. T-Mobile is the RHOD210. Also, if you go to HTC's site & check, you'll see each one has a different Qualcomm MSM 7K chipset listed.
AT&T has 7201a
Verizon & Sprint have 7600
T-Mobile & European have 7200a
Thank you guys. I appreciate your help
A few more questions if you guys dont mind
1- When I had the kaiser, i used to flash different radios(kaiser,polaris,neon,niki) in order to get MY desired radio(GPS,batterylife,etc..). Will I be able to do that with my RHOD500?
2-Regarding also waiting for a HARDSPL(thank you Olinex and Olipro), will I have to wait for a better release in the future? (i.e: Production cars, people dont always buy the FIRST fleet of cars as they still have flaws, so they wait for the 2nd and 3rd production fleet where the company would have fixed the 1st release flaws)
I am not talking about roms as I know thats the case, but close enough since we had 3.29,3.34,etc..for Kaiser.Which will I have to flash?
Will I have to do that?
3-I bought my Rhodium Unlocked(since I am using another company), will I still have to get security/sim Unlocker in order to flash different radios?
Thank you guys for welcoming me over here
I'm not sure about that. Since those devices have GSM/CDMA capabilities, they might use different radios than GSM devices (I don't know), but I'm not sure if anyone other than cmonex and Olipro could answer that.
No, there really isn't a reason to wait. It's extremely unlikely that any unforseen consequences would occur since they have teams of people testing HSPL long before release, to ensure that it's okay to release to the general public.
You do not need to security unlock to flash radios. You DO need to security unlock to flash radios from other devices (such as the Topaz). However, this brings me back to your first question, which as I have already said, I do not know the answer to. Therefore, I think you'll need to wait and see (though HardSPL for CDMA devices should be out very soon from what I hear)
Appreciate your answers Dave .
Thanks for helping me out.
I do hope they get the HARDSPL soon as I am dying to start working on my RHODIUM.
I do want to ask the questions to cmonex and Olipro, but I am sure they are quite busy. Also I doubt they will answer my questions as they are busy and usualy, most busy people just tell me read the FAQ, which sometimes doesnt have the answer to my question.
BTW, have u tried STYLEZ Black, V3. Trust me, you ll luv it.FLAWLESS

Sure, happy to help
As I've said, HSPL should be ready very soon. CDMA HardSPL has already been finished, but cmonex was busy IRL and she also has to work out mirrors and the licensing server (or something like that). And when the Security/SIM/CID unlocker is ready, I'm sure that Olipro or cmonex (whoever posts it) will say what radios you can flash, etc.
Thx for the explination. Appreciate it
I am watting anctiously to start flashingm y RHOD500
Hey guys. Now I have a very good question.
In all my previous HTCs, I used to install NeoS2007 OpenVG and Chainfire's GFXBoost which seemed to improve Significantly the proformance and graphics.
Should i also install them on my rhodium?
When I used the NeoS2007 driverpack 3 on EnergyROM "Leo", I actually got worse 3D performance, and it seemed slower than before. GfxBoost didn't really have a noticable effect, IMO. However, you should test them on whatever ROM you have, since the overall effect may be different in your particular setup.
The thing is, I have the RHOD500, no HARDSPL YET. I just wanted to know in advance of the effect so that when the time comes to flash, ill get everything done by the first flash.

Don't remember there being a specific place for this here @ XDA.
But very social of you for doing so anyway, welcome.
And don't brick your device and be sure to sim unlock first if your locked to Orange with a Desire.

You are so welcome
You waited a year before taking the plunge, and you still messed up?? No offense. I just find that rather odd. Not saying anything so don't be mad. We all make mistakes. Take care. =)
I too want to say thanks to all you great gents& Ladies her for your time & patience with this old broad. I haven't been on here for very long but I find that I am way out of my league with you bunch. In a lot of cases trying to read what you reply of post is like trying to read Greek & I can barley read Enlish & I am a Canuck. I have loved my Streak but as I rarely use it anymore for anything more than a phone & the problems it has given me, I have put my sim & SD cards back into my BB and will just use it in my latter years. I may upgrade to a Galaxy but I don't know just now. So anyway I have put the Streak up for sale here in the to sell forum as well as the accesories forum & next week or so I will put it on Ebay, Kikijji or Craigslist. Again thanks for all the advice I have placed this forum into my favorites so I have a place to come to if I need expert electronic advice. Cheers Angela aka fysty-1 Dodds.

Additional Thanks
I would also like to echo my thanks to this site, to everyone behind it and all the contributors and wealth of knowledge that is assembled here. After finally having enough with VZW, I unlocked and rooted my GNEX and it's been absolutely wonderful! THANKS!
Welcome in guys!
I see you have decided to step out of lurking and perhaps become part of the community, that is very noble cause indeed.
Feel free to roam the forums you guys frequent and help other members with questions or issues that you once had, this way we can help perpetuate the greatness of the forum and save developers' time answering things so they spend it developing.
That may be the best way to show your gratitude.
I too want to say Thank you to the xda community!
I've been here for many things, questions, ROM, some help.
Thank you
Agreed! Loving the support for my Galaxy Nexus. All answers seem to be found here

Hi all,
I too wish to thank the forum's contributors, without them my phone would not be rooted etc...........still it can be a 'daunting task' wading thru the 'info', especially when one does not have any background in this stuff........I literally need step by step instructions....
A Big Thank yous
