Keyboard Skin - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi
Does anyone out there have a cab for making the touchscreen key-board a little more inviting.. I had one off here years ago which made it blue green and a little 3d but I cant seem to find it on here, it was a cab someone had designed....>?????
Cheers James

I spotted some on this site, look near the bottom of the page.
They are cab files and easy to install
Has anyone tried them on WM2003SE !

Well the red one is working fine on my wifes M600 (HTC Prophet)
Will try it on a 2003SE device tomorrow

Cheers
Cheers Guys, I had a go at downloading one but it doesnt work, after further forum reading yesterday I believe the reason for this is because the app isnt signed. My device is locked to t-mobile and also super cid locked. So until someone comes up with a CID unlocked version I cant get this working.
Thanks for your help anyway

You could try the cab file in the link below, it disables the certification allowing you to install & run unsigned programs & cab files.
Machinegod did a similar tool, try a search if your interested.
Well heres the link if you want to try it.

Big Big Big problem new rom

Good morning all
Is the first time that i write in a forum, i'll try to explain my problem and i hope that somobody can help me.
I'm working in china and one day i lost my thelephone, so i decided to buy a PDA HTC P3300.But only after some day i saw that some thing was not working, so i'm tring to downgrade a new rom.
Here i had my problem, i followed all the details that i found on internet, also i took some informations and file from this forum to coplete the procedure like Hard SPL and so on, the problem is that when activesync is connected to the device i launch for example Hard SPL to upgrade it but after the program showed me the version installated and i said upgrade, i waited for a while and then the progam told me to check the usb connection (i tried whit 3 different cable) ERROR 260.The same thing happened when i tried to change the ROM.
CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE?? I NEED THE PDA ALSO FOR WORK.
Thank you everybody!

Hard Spl??? For the Artmes?? Mate are you trying to brick your device cause it seems you are doing a pretty good job of it too,Hard Spl is NOT for the p3300 it is for the Hermes and Trinity which are two very very different models of HTC. Please make an effort to read the Wiki before you start messing with the phone.Try flashing the t-mobile stock rom FOR THE ARTEMIS(WITHOUT THE HARD SPL) and hopefully it may work also find out from your buyer if it is CID unlocked though i doubt wether they would know.
Check in Settings - Connections - USB to PC that the USB advanced network functionality is not ticked. That's caught me out in the past after making changes.
This is assuming that others in this forum are correct and you've not yet made a brick using the wrong model. Good luck!
One problem more on rom
Thanks all for your answers
sorry but i still had one problem more
As arvind09 said i read almost all Wiki before do some other stupid things, i downloaded anhoter rom from this page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_Upgrades
but the rom that i found is HTC rom 1.12.405.101, and is not working on my artemis, i looked in my system and i saw that i need this ROM 1.13.110.101

T-Mobile Here
Did you buy it in China?
If you bought the phone in China, there will be 2 versions. 1 for the chinese market (han huo) and the others are for other markets (usually europe) then flashed with the chinese rom (shui huo). As far as I know the chinese versions aren't locked and the foreign market versions musn't be locked either due to the fact that they have to put on the chinese rom

HTC S620 WM5 to TMO WM6

Hey everyone,
I've got the HTC-S620. Unlocked from IMEI Check.co.uk so it is CID and SIM unlocked and i still cannot upgrade to the TMO WM6 rom.
The only roms I can use are the original HTC Excalibur WM5 rom or the TMO Wm5 Dash rom and i can go between the two. I cannot use any other rom while in either of the ones i mentioned which work.
Every single time i go to do a rom update it gives me the same error.
Error [244]: Invalid Model ID
This update utility cannot be used for your phone. Please check the update utility.

did you flash the bootloader to 1.11 like it says?
it will not let me...the only roms it lets me update with are either the HTC 620 rom or the TMO WM5 rom. nothing else works, not the bootloader nor the TMO wm6
Hi
I had the same problem last night but found that following this info got it working for me.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1282882&postcount=2
Nothing else would get it working as you always get the vendor id error.

I recently did this method on a canadian Rodgers S620:

And this method on a European HTC S620:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1282882&postcount=2
However I don't know if each method works on the other device. The first one is easier, but be sure to flash the bootloader like it says and you should see a black backround with red text when you boot. Once you see that you know its ready to take the WM6 rom.
i tried that and IT WORKED!!!! THX EVERYONE!!! =D woohoo WM6 =D

WM6 update sticking at 28%

Hi all, new to all this.
I have spent the last 6 days scanning the forums and wiki about upgrading to the offical rom for the trinity to WM6.
I have tried super cid and sim unlocks as well as Hard SPL and many other tricks and advice from users.
None of them seem to work.
Does anyone have a real idea (a proper technical answer) as to why the progress stops @ 28% on this update and not on any of the cooked roms?
I would really appreciate some help on this.....
Thanks all

I know, but I have been using this for Six day's and tried all avenues. The reason to ask here is one of frustration.
But thanks anyhow....
my guess is something about the ipl or spl, since after you remove those and put it in a modified RUU it works..

First flash hard spl before flashing this rom!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299659
And dont hold me responsible if this update fails for you.
It worked fine for me.
Spl and Ipl are removed , and splash screens changed to htc screens.
Thats all , so it still has latest radio and extrom.
I advise you to soft reset when you first boot your trin and see the screen that says customization will start in 3 seconds.

Change Home screen keys (HTC DIAMOND)

Hello Guys,
This is my 1st post but been watching this forum for a while now. You guys are awesome in your field and liking. I am kinda noobie in this. Needed a lil help and am sure I would get it soon. I purchased HTC Diamond y`day and it seems that it was locked by Airtel. My phone has been unlocked and its working perfectly fine. Help I need is with below
1. How can I change the home screen left, right buttons. Left says "PHONE" and right says "AIRTEL LIVE"
2. How can I change the startup wallpaper which shows a huge Airtel logo when i boot my phone up.
Thanks a lot in anticipation.
Cheers !!
PS- Mods I think I have posted in the wrong section. Plz move it to the right one .. Sorry !!

1. Try Diamond Tweak. Install it on the Touch Diamond and run the program. Left softkey is under 14.4 and the right softkey is under 14.5.
2. Is this what you mean?
Guess you've should update to hard-SPL. Follow this tutorial to get it working. Only do this when you understand the risks.
@Crazyrooster, thanks a ton mate !! That is all what I needed .. Its looks perfect .. Big thanks .. Also regarding the SPL I was looking around and did want to upgrade my rom... Today morning I tried to install Duttys but it didnt get installed. Error 262. Tried researching and it seems that the connection with active sync is getting disconnected and thus the update doesnt work. Will check the links u have provided.
Once again thanks !!
Cheers !!

Your welcome mate!
Hey .. Installed 1.38 Olinex .. Phone seems to be superfast then before .. Tweaks helped a lot .. Just spending time with the phone these days after work .. Mail for Exchange is also working good .. When I click contacts, its taking me to company directory .. Weird .. So looking around for some solution .. Am sure will find it around here ..
Thanks again !!
Cheers !!
Airtel unlocked
Hey Shroomz, looks like you have one of the previously Airtel branded but now officially unlocked phones.
Did you run any hard spl before running the diamond tweak which got rid of "Airtel live" from home screen ? Thanks.

BT S620 not booting .. urgent help!

Hello everyone ..
I need your help , I I installed the arabizer and rebooted ... and never reach home again! phone is jamming at BT LOGO and doesnt go any further.
took battery off , same thing! cant get activesync see the phone either
BTW, I recently Upgraded to WM6 Standard !!
any ideas?
Appreciate your time guys!
check the sticky for the unbricking your phone thread and also the hard reset bootloader thread. they should allow you to unbrick and reflash your phone. upgrade to ookba's 6.5 and you'll encounter less problems. im guessing your phone wasn't unlocked to apps since you're just hitting WM6 standard. you might wanna do that next time and prevent this problem again
Thanks dude,
I will check it and get back to you

Was your BT not already WM6 as they have been dispatched for over a year with WM6.
B.T.W if you after a nicer looking better functioning device update to 6.1 or 6.5, the BT official ROM is posted in sticky too just incase you have to return phone ever "not that i thnk BT would even turn the phone on to check lol they pretty useless @ everything they do" yep i'm an ex BT subscriber
If you want to stick with BT ROM hard-reset again in link above

Sure I want, what do you recommend??? I will eventually need to have some Arabic support thought!
I bought it over Ebay with WM5, but got it upgraded to WM6 (still BT, and yes it looks stupid )
one your phone is properly unlocked for apps and you are settled in with a rom that works well for you, installing arabic support shouldn't be a problem. just make sure the Arabic support program you install will work with the rom you choose. search the forums and find all the info on the roms and find one that will suit you best. don't be scared to ask questions.. but diving head first without all the research can be sketchy. really really sketchy
tried few threads but I still cant flash any new roms !
okay i'm still working on no sleep but you seem pretty desperate and i think i know how you feel. A bricked phone sucks. So here's the threads and i'll explain as i give em to you. If you phone is locked up (bricked) and wont boot up past the Windows screen go here and follow the instructions to get your phone working again http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493266 if you had to use that to unbrick your phone and prepare it for flashing flash your phone with one of these factory roms from herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381726. once your phone is working and you can access your home screen and start menu install this program to unlock your sim and applications from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355789. this will allow you to flash through serveral of the new 6.5 roms such as the 3vo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718 and the NRGhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=527496 rom series. If you absolutly can't getting it working messages us back and one of the makers of these roms will help you because im going to sleep. good luck
EDIT: if you absolutely can not unbrick check out this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540492
Thanks for your help and time dude, but I guess you sent same link for all things by mistake
BTW, the phone is not sim-locked , but I dont know about applications , tried several ways but nothing yet ..
