On a Gigabyte G-Smart.
Please forgive me, I realize that this forum is for XDA / HTC devices only, but I thought that with the wealth of knowledge on this board, somebody might have a quick solution to the proposed problem.
I am trying to create an "extended_rom" like solution on my Gigabyte, where files automatically get installed when a hard reset is done.
Any help our suggestions would be appreciated, although I realize this is not the focus of this board.
Thanks!
Wow , you have a gigabyte g-smart ?
can you please tell me wath is this rom version and can you realize a dump.bin with Grabbit software ?
Thanks a bunch for the reply...
Yeah, I have one. I have not been able to get the bin off of it, but I am using stuff that I wrote. Might have to grab something out there that is a bit more robust. The stuff I wrote works fine on HTC and HP stuff, but just seems to want to die on the Gigabyte. I am not suprised at this...
As for the ROM version, there is no Asset Viewer on the device, so the only version numbers I have gotten for the WHOLE DEVICE are as follows:
Windows Mobile Version 5.0 OS 5.1.195 (Build 1429.2.2.1) (Version of WM5, obviously)
The only other version that is readily available without poking through the entire registry is V1.08.12 assigned to the device by Gigabyte (Device Name: Pocket_PC Description: V1.08.12).
I am trying to find more information on the versions of the radio ROM as well as trying to be able to write to \IMGFS and/or \ROM...
Let me try to get the bin off of the device. Will try someone elses stuff now.
wow , 1.0812 ... very very interesting ...
Why don't you wan't to use grabbit software ??
it just make a file called dump.bin on your sdcard ....
youhave just to make a directory called 2577 on your sdcard , put grabbit.exe on it and rename to autorun.exe after that , put your sdcard on gigabyte and that's fun ....
It's not that I don't WANT to use grabbit.exe, it's that I don't HAVE grabbit.exe... and I have a rom dump program that I wrote that works on other devices.
Do you have a link to grabbit.exe? Quick search of this forum doesn't come up with anything when I search on "grabbit"...
Thanks!
EDITED TO SAY: Heh... found it... did a search on "grab_it" and found all of them. I will give it a try. Thanks!
wow cool !!!!
if you want , i can make an ftp for you or can you please upload your dump.bin in this ftp ...
i've a g-smart dump , but this is tha 1.05.20 ....
theoretically you can use my imgfs tools to edit ROM image. But you'll need a program that can update ROM, and create file in format that it understands.
yes mamaich , i've a dump.bin created with grab_it of a g-smart(1.05.20) and your tools works like a charm !!!!
Thanks so much for the suggestion!
mamaich, would you be able to post a link to the imgfs editor that you have? Or, I could just search for it on the forum. I actually think that I have it...
I have the bin file, will upload it soon.

Will try to get it up by tomorrow.

Hi mates,
i have an i-teq BOND aka Gigabyte g-smart. It has rom v1.10.18 and is working very bad, absolut bad.
Is there any other rom (english) than this 1.05.13 that you are talking about.
Thanks.
I ave the i-Teq Bond as well with the similar crappy update and no old ROM.
The gigabyte ROMs are all in taiwanese or something like that, so not much use. :?
Anybody has i-Teq or Gigabyte gsmart ROM in English? :?:
Sjengie
I have a Gigabyte G-Smart with 1.08.12 English ROM. There are some issues with it and I'm looking for later firmware or a place to look for it.
There's so many different versions quoted on this thread that I'm unsure if I have the latest English ROM or whether there is something newer.
Can anyone summarise the versions out there?
wow fasteye ...
can you please dump your rom with grab_it and upload here ?
the 1.08.12 is the last , i think ... is the ansewr machine work ?
I don't have the grabit software. If someone is willing to provide a link to it then I'll give it a go.
This firmware is not great though hence I'm keen to find something better.
Without doubt the best Pocket PC phone I've used in terms of design and size just a pity that the firmware and battery are not better. TV and FM Radio don't seem to work in the UK.
Anyone know if there is any way to get T9 on it?
rom update problem

Bat i desperate, after update to rom version 1.12.18 my radiofm and tv not work.

I was just poking around the HTC europe site looking for the BBconnect v4 for the dash, and i happened to run across this.
RUU_Excalibur_HTC_WWE_Brightpoint_US_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship.exe
p.s. - if anyone knows a link or where i can find this elusive bbconnect v4 for the dash, PLEASE hook me up.
Think you could upload the rom to rapidshare or something, since my Dash isn't HTC branded I can't register and get the download.
Encourages. Probably Russian ROM will appear soon
damn...here ya go ya lazy bastids =)
http://rapidshare.com/files/7886560...S_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship.exe.html
i put the spl bootloader on there too, if you need it.
what's the change log for this rom update? anyone?
Good and fast rom, but i have one problem after remapping the keybord.
He didn't reconize the "z" in searching contacts.
Is there a solution ?

Try flashing it to t-mobile wm6 then use Excalibur USPL- CID BYPASS, afterward just flash it like any other rom. Thats how I did mine and I have the same error as yours.
I've been running it all day. It's a bit quicker but nothing major.
Is this quicker than the Rogers ROM? Any reason to upgrade to this?
Does the ROM support SDHC cards?
Any early verdict on better or worse than the Rogers Rom?

Hi,
i've got this ROM on my Excalibur:
HTC_S620_GER_1.27.407.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship
I'm german, so I want to use a ROM in german language.
Is the ROM mentioned in this thread suitable for me ?
I think it says ..Brightpoint_US.. in the filename, so it's for the US only ?
I do not have access to the HTC support area since my device is non-HTC branded. Maybe someone can upload a german version of the 1.33 ROM if available ?
Thank a lot
wtf! does anyone know how to get full screen on the esmertec java? it's quite annoying...anyway this rom is damn fast...

No, I just before 20 min finish download, and extract in to the some folder just to see, all files are there and work.
Can we get a new link for this rom? This zip is corrupted!!!
Edit: I get it now
It is not corrupted . I have installed without problem. maybe I dont remember just try removing .zip extension it might just be an .exe file
Yep, worked for me too, but not the usual way I use for unzip. I unzip it another way so its worked OK!
What is the Rom Date? of this rom by the way?

Thanks for the ROM chand4u76.
For everyone struggling with this download follow below.
The rom seems as fast as my default rom RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.93.831.1, will test tonight and report back, my main interest to get rid of the TomTom 7 gps lag.
1-After downloading file delete the .zip end of file name, i.e file name should look like this
RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.93.479.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe
2-Right click on this file and select extract (you need WinRAR for this step)
3.Run the extracted file
I flashed this rom and its dated 25/7-08 ( Euroe rom was 10/7-08) and its seems to be faster then the Europe version and works much better, in Tflo you now can schroll the pictures in bigger mode too which didnt work in the Europe rom(for me anyway). Wonder why they call it EE rom? only EE i found was the weather citys which was pre-installed
even the XT9 was the usual countrys, engl, ger, and so on..
Thanks for the upload by the way chand4u76 !!
Very fast..

Hi again omaga..
This is the fastest ROM to date and just beats my original 1.93.831.1 WWE for speed, also a bonus to is no active sync running in background. My TomTom 7 seems to get loads more satellites?
The only ROM I am waiting to try now is bepes v1.0, mainly because its the only ROM that G-Sensor calibrator works first and every time (looses settings after soft reset, but easy to run once again after).
Can some tell me what version of Manilla is in this ROM? Thanks....

Only difference i notice is that the picture scroll in Tflo when you tick the picture bigger and in landscape is working, its shows all the pictures. In Europe 1.93(dont remember the Tflo v in this rom) rom that doesnt work its just show the picture you tick and when scroll its only show that picture.
This rom seems to be much faster and more stable then the 1.93 Europe rom a used before

Can somebody mirror this rom please??
I can't use RapidShare...
I'm also flashing this right now. I've downloaded both this ROM and also one that I've found on HTC's site (1.93.401.2). I've flashed this one since I presume it is newer (1.93xxx.3 compared with 1.93xxx.2). Does anyone knows any main differences between these two or there are only minor changes?
Now it's booting...

NOTE (Jan. 11/09): To make Rogers Name Display work on other ROMs, you need to cook the attached rilphone.dll into the ROM. Also, you have to subscribe to Name Display on the Rogers network in Canada (of course).

hello there, can you please upload the ril.dll file as well as any other ril**.dll in your /windows. i'm trying to get the name display working on my diamond.

No problem, it's a relevant point because it's Rogers and only they support Name Display.
I think Trueg can help you out with that, he figured it out for the Elfins.
Actually try this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"Dll"="rilphone.dll"
"Prefix"="RIL"
"Order"=dword:10
"Index"=dword:1
And then copy rilphone.dll
no luck there. still unknown

Could you summarize what you did and name display works
Did you use the new rilphone.dll from dsixda or the one your diamond had?
Actually it will be good if someone know how to create a cab
with the registry settings and the dlls
Thanks

i copied the dll from internal storage to /windows with total commander. next looked in the reg, all entries existed and the only one i have to change was "Order"=dword from 16 to 10. soft reset, and it worked! simple
at first i was like o_0 then i was like ^_^ then i **** my pants! lol
i'm soo happy! i have had this phone since May and now its finally fully functional.
I dont know how name display is working in your diamond
but when I copied the dll to my windows folder i lost the radio
I could not start the gsm radio not even when i replaced the original
dll file I had.
Bottom line I had to reinstall a new ROM
By the way I use Dutty's ROMs
It happens twice to me

You will likely have to use the itsutils tools (I used "pdocread" when I extracted it successfully for the Rogers Touch).
Roger HTC Diamond
To the author. Did you mange to unlock and put a cooked ROM on your Rogers HTC Diamond? Another thing is there a way to manually disable 3G connection on a Rogers HTC Diamond phone. I just got my Rogers branded Diamond and sold my EU/Asia Diam. In my opinion the EU/Asia is better than the US/Can version. The EU/Asia ver runs smoother and GPS works really well. With my new Rogers Diam, it's a little bit sluggish and acquiring GPS signal takes like 5mins. I'm thinking maybe debranding the phone and flashing a cooked ROM will fix it.
Thanks.

Yes, of course I can put a cooked ROM, because I restored this backup successfully, which itself is a cooked ROM because it is unsigned (and I also had to "cook" it with the SYS/OEM/XIP components). Dutty's ROM works as well.
Regarding the 3G connection thing, there is a thread on howardforums.com where trueg mentioned how to do it.
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1448329
I'm not sure about your GPS issue; it's probably your own issue. It only took me less than 30 seconds to get my first working signal.. which is just as good as my GlobalSat bluetooth one.

Are you on the Rogers network?
Hey there mate,
Rebuilded the rogers rom for myself as well and compared it to what you had built as well. I don't see ril*.dll in the OEM folder (searched all the dll's and did not see any ril*) [in mine or yours]
Is it really suppose to be there or ... i'm not doing something right?

my friend just recently bought diamond and everything is in korean(he can't read korean) i'm going to get his phone tomm and install hardspl, dump the rom and make a minor modification on his oem korean rom. i'm not asking how to do it, since i found most of info here in xda, but i am asking you for tips. i have never flashed rom nor dumped rom before. any tips you can give me, that will be great. after i dump the rom, i will try to post it up so that everyone can take a look at if they want to.
p.s one quick questions....is it possible to change tf3d's language only? i've been hearing that diamond in korea can't use custom rom because it uses diff xip and radio. if that's the case, is it possible to forward xip and radio from korean rom to custom rom? please any tips can be helpful REALLY!!!
Usually, when you make a custom ROM, only this part gets flashed, which means, your radio stays intact, unless you explicitly add a radio to flash also.
XIP usually accompanies an OS build.
Your device should work just fine as long as you don't make a mish mash of the os files, and as long as you preserve your OEMDrivers (along with any operator provxmls).
If you need any help, just dump the rom, upload it to mediafire or filefactory and PM me.
