Can't download files from the net..... - HTC Excalibur

I did some looking around and haven't found a solution to this problem so I figured I'd go ahead and ask.
My wife has the Dash. I was trying to download some new themes for her phone directly from this site the same way I do for mine on my Wing. For some reason her phone won't allow me to download anything. I'm doing this via our Wifi connection at home, so I'm sure that's not the problem. I also downloaded the same file on my Wing to confirm it and of course the Wing had no problem.
Is there some kind of Smartphone vs. PPC thing that I don't know about when downloading files from the net?

I have the same problem using HTC Vox (original rom). I tried to download any file but PIE or Opera gave me an error that I cannot download these files. It does not matter which kind of file it is.

By default you can download only a few file types. Please check this http://www.modaco.com/content/Smart...Standard-devices-Review-of-Opera-Mini-4-beta/ for a solution. There is a freeware at http://www.smartmadsoft.com/products.html#feadie can help too.

Reason #213 why my wife wants to get rid of her Dash.

Need Help With Motorolla Ht820 head phones!

I have a cingular 2125 and i need to get some software so i can listen to music on the bt head phones. Ive tried downloading some stuff of this forum and i cant get it to work, and now my phone cant find the headphones, its just a mess, i really need some help. If someone could tell me what to do, id be forever greatful, thanks.
UPDATE: So i updated my rom to the newest version from cingular and i installed the Tor_A2dp_Cert cab file and the .dll files, and i installed the zoa2dp_168 cab file thinking it was the cab file that automatically does the registry thing? But im not sure if that was the right one. Point is i need to do the registry and i dont know how and i need that file, and every link on this forum goes to an error so i cant get it, so if someone could post the actual file on that would be awsome. Plus my 2125 isnt seeing my ht820 head phones now,i dont know why and i cant figure that out. And i downloaded the registry editor software, but i have no idea how to use it.
UPDATE 2: Figured out how to use registry software, but the registry was already in the format that it is supposed to be in, as it says in the readme file that comes with the A2DP zip file. The problem is that the damn thing just cant find the headphones. Anyone got any ideas?

HTC VOGUE (SPRINT/Flashed to METROPCS) HTC_GUARDIAN file issues..(INTERNET SETTINGS)

Ok my issue is this..I flashed my Voude to metro pcs, I used IAMCOKEMANS loader and the alltell rom, since then no matter what rom i use the Web setting or internet settings wont keep..at all it will reset the pass word right after i save the new one.. ive tried every thing and have spent a month trying it before i decided to ask for help.
what can i do about thi problem? there are plenty of people out there claiming that they got internet and mms working flawlessly but yet no one has posted how.. so its my opinion that no one has yet lol.. not if your using the same phone from sprint that i have..and when they list the proxy settins and web setting for metro to put onto the touch there all half ass.. they do not give a step by step on how they disabled the HTC_GAURDIAN files to be able to keep there settings, and 2 they they dont tell you how they over written the file..as some have claimed..
Ok HTC_GAURDIAN is not in the start up folder in NEW roms!!! it can not be disabled by any means i know.. and every kitchen ive used just doesnt seem to install properly or when i dl the files to build an os it wont find the syw or any thing..
So can any body out there please tell me the best rom to use with this phone (thats loaded ..lol the rom i have now is really nice) and a defiant way to get the internet working on this phone from print please on the metro net work.. thanks all and thanks for the support.. after it is done i will right a guide documenting how i get it done in detail.. thanks.
Lmao it has been done and i used to have cricket and i overworote the Guardian file easily...
First off its a hidden file so your not going to find it easily.
Second its not in the Start folder inside the windows folder, its inside the windows folder just chillin there
You need
1)Total Commader
2)A blank notepad file saved at HTC_GUARDIAN.exe
once you have that... input the guardian file to somewhere on your phone and insall total commander.
you will find 2 files in the windows folder usisn total com. that are called "htc_guardian.exe" and a shortcut to this file. you need to replace the HTC_Guardiand file with the one you made and that should solve your problem with the proxy and credentials messing up...

Thank you for your reply.. ok i tried it and it is not working.. it says it can not be over written since it is part of the rom? i read some where that they disable it to being over written in the new 6.1 cn any one confirm this?
P.S. i found HTC_GUARDIAN.EXE AND HTC_GAURDIAN.ink???
Ok i got the file over written and i reset.. the problem now(wich leads me to belive that i didnt over write any thing ) is that if i create or modifie a connection no matter what pass word i put in (metropcs) I save it and i can reopen it and it goes right back to a 14-5 digit pass word and when i open a page in internet explorer it says page can not be opened due to a connection loss..any help on what the best rom would be and how to get the web working would be great!!!!! and i allso heard there is a new metropcs rom in the works or being checked out right now... CAN I BE A TESTER PLEASE!!!! thanks

Help with Mobile Firefox/Fennec install

So I had been doing some searching and can't seem to find my answer, so here is my question. I have downloaded both mobilefox 2.0.0.7 and Fennec. I can unzip the programs but when I try to load them on either of my phones, Vogue and Raphael, I get the same error message " 'startmobilefirefox' is not a valid Pocket PC application." I have unzipped it on the phones and on my computer (then transferred it over) and I still get the same message. Am I doing something wrong?
Sounds like you might have the wrong files. The WinMo files should be packaged as a cab file and once transferred to the phone will trigger the installer on the phone.
When I checked the Mozilla ftp site, they had builds for a number of different platforms. Look for the .cab ones.
I was able to find a Fennec Cab file when searching on google. Fennec is only good for the HTC phones that have a Keypad. It doesnt work on my Vogue but it does work on my Raphael. Only issue is that now that my wife and I have tried it out, its not working properly. It takes about 1 min for it to pull up and run but, when I try to load a website it doesnt load any pages. All of this is only due to myspace wont load on any other browser on her phone. Time to see if I can find another browser that will allow her to get on myspace.

Help!Where can I find LG Fathom's ROM?

Hi. I have a LG Fathom and I want to cook its ROM. However, to cook that I guess I need its ROM first. If you know there to find its ROM or if you know how to dump the ROM, can you please help me?
Thanks
Install Microsoft's Network Monitor** (its free - netmon from now on, im lazy ) http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...1d-06cb-4658-b7f6-3088333d062f&displaylang=en
Close all your browser windows, instant messenger, email, anything that uses the network should be stopped while you do this.
Start netmon, and tell it to capture all the traffic on your network card.
Then start the lg-updater program (get it from lg directly), and have it check for updates for your phone.
Go back to network monitor and stop capturing traffic when it's done.
You can then either browse through the captured traffic in netmon directly, and see if you can find a url yourself (it'll be an exe or kdz file) or send me the capture file and I'll find it.
**If you're familiar with wireshark you could use that instead of netmon.
Hey there can90. If you manage to get the base rom for the LG Fathom would you be able to post the link. There is some stuff in that phone that I'm sure others would love to port to other phones; including myself
Can we flash unsigned roms to the Fathom?
Can90 managed to get me a network capture to look through, unfortunately it doesn't contain a reference to the stock rom. I assume this is because LG just hasn't uploaded it yet.
For anyone that wants to play with URLs to try and find it, this is the relevant portion of the response to lg's updater app.
<model>LGVS750SS</model>
<suffix>AVRZDB</suffix>
<esn_date>20100420</esn_date>
<sw_version />
<sw_url />
<sw_locale_url>/</sw_locale_url>
<sw_recommand_uri>AIC/GLOBAL</sw_recommand_uri>
<app_version />
<app_url />
<cs_em_flag>N</cs_em_flag>
<cs_em_uri>N</cs_em_uri>
<chip_type />
normally sw_url and sw_locale_url would have what we want, but they're empty
Hopefuly I will be getting an LG Fathom tomorrow so I will try to help out here. Has anyone else had any luck snagging a complete ROM from LG's site yet?
Nobody that I've been able to find.
I have discovered there is a seemingly different (from the generic one used for the expo) updater for verizon.
I haven't actually looked at it yet, but it's different from the usual B2CAppSetup and is labelled as 1.0.1.8 (the generic one offered up on lg's site is 1.0.1.7) ( http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/client/app/Verizon/LGMobileUpdate.exe )
I'm not sure which one can90 used (I've pm'd him to find out and try the other) but if you've got a phone and a few minutes you could try them both.
Just as an update - I joined the LG forums and posted a question on the fathom update. Here is the post - http://www.lgcommunity.com/forums/aff/6/aft/6481/afv/topic.aspx
When I find out there's an update I will let everyone know.
I just checked the lg update tool and the fathom is on the list as of this morning! It wasn't there when I looked last night.
Is it possible that the fathom update could be a cab file? so far I have this -
URL: /swdata/WEBSW/LGVS750/AVRZDB/VS750ZV5_06/VS750ZV5_06.SV5_06.P58006.R5.cab
Edit:
link here - http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdat.../VS750ZV5_06/VS750ZV5_06.SV5_06.P58006.R5.cab
Is this whats needed? Not trying to push for an answer, just updating and asking...

This doesn't appear to be a real cab file....not one that anything I've got recognizes anyways
Windows explorer opened it when others couldn't
At 130 megs it probably is what we're after, just in a new (to me at least) format. Did you try flashing it?
Running "strings" against it the first few turned up are
These are the contents of the cab file
VS750ZV5_06.SV5_06.P58006.R5.wdb
VS750_W_1_0_7_0.dll
VS750ZV5_06.SV5_06.P58006.R5.wdh
the wdh/wdb are not extensions I'm familiar with and I'd be more than a bit surprised if it was a ms works database. I'll try and take a closer look at the file later today if nobody else has by then.
Edit: Apparently that's the same packaging the vs740 came in. From what I could find, people hadn't been able to find tools to successfully unpack the wdb.
Going through the flashing process should leave a .bin file in the usual lgmobileax location, not clear whether that's something we can unpack with existing tools either.
Hey there da_reeseboy. Great find on the firmware. Once quick question though that may help me get past where I am stuck extracting the firmware. What is the firmware version that is running on your fathom. If your not sure where to look, got to start menu/Settings/System/System Info and click on the plus box next to Version Info. What does it say after ROM?

I don't have a version info with a plus sign next to it but under software version it says VS750ZV4
Thanks da_reeseboy. I see that that is an older version than the cab from the updater program. I haven't had any success extracting the files. If someone with a fathom is willing to try this we may be able to get the rom. We would need someone to attempt to flash their phone to the new firmware. To do this run the updater program and connect your phone to your computer. Next, make sure you have an activesync connection and start update. It should place the phone in emergency download mode. The update program should start running, will detect your phone, download the new firmware and start loading it to your phone. This is where you will need to search for the rom. In win xp go to:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\LGMOBILEAX\Phone
in win7:
C:\Users\All Users\LGMOBILEAX\Phone
The rom should be in that folder. Just simply copy it somewhere so that you have a copy of it after exiting the updater since the updater deletes the file after completion. After that we would just need you to upload the rom to a free file sever and post the link for someone to download.
I'll be happy to try it in the morning with some coffee lol. I'll post my findings.
Edit: Do we want to try to pull the current version on my phone first before flashing the update? Just as something to compare to?
just an update - I dumped the stock rom, then tried to do the update but my computer is saying that it can't connect to the com port. I'm gonna try it on my laptop when I get back home (family was hungry so we went to get food). does anyone know if the update tool has an issue with win7 64 bit vs 32 bit?
Edit: home now, started update on my laptop - its working great so there must be an issue with 64 bit...
Update done. I snagged the files in that folder, but I don't think they will do us much good - its just the contents of the cab file.
For those interested, here is the contents of the phone folder during the update -

Hey da_reeseboy. Thanks for trying. i was hoping that the updater would unpack the wdb file. Guess it didn't. You had mentioned something about dumping the original version on your phone. Do you have a copy of the dump?
I just finished uploading it and a dump of the update -
VS750ZV4 - http://www.multiupload.com/M7FYR42S60
VS750ZV5 - http://www.multiupload.com/KTED97KZU3
Think we can do anything with these?
