SAMSUNG ROMS i780 ! ALL you need to know - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

hi
this is a post that resulted after extensive testing of all the available roms and testing with combination of eboot , radio and pda roms of different complete roms
the results are as follows ....
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

legend :
WLM means windows live messenger .. P(resent) , W(orks on wifi) ... the only one working on wifi was with DXHA1 with the RADIO from XIHA7
all other combinations couldnt make the WLM work on wifi
HR --> HARD RESET by holding the green and red keys while resetting
GPS was not tested on any rom (dont use it too much) but you may find following info useful
the ITA rom to use gps use port port 1..the DXHD1 GPS works out of program port 8 (thanks to Avantis)
to change the OP settings --> 1) Press the phone button (green one)
2) Type on phone *#1546792*#
3) Choose Preconfiguration (to enter this menu type *#81230*#. Here you can change network operator specific settings) (thanks to rlai)
hope this was of some help !!

Any chance to changet the keyboard layout?, The preconfiguration method to change the operator didnt change the layout (in my case english -> spanish)

this is weird, i thought that the DXHD1 is the NEWEST ROM, thus should have the latest build and issues working, but it seems that a relatively older ROM, XIAH7, has a newer build ?
Which one should I upgrade to then?

Excel Table
zohaer21, great job dude!
I would really like to see an updated table regarding the new ROMs though.
I'll try to do a similar one
Thanks man

All this is THANKS to Gixxum!!!​
The ORIGINAL PDF manual if you need it..
Before getting started, please take a quick look at the sticky's that are located on the very top of the Excalibur forum, or visit here for an encyclopedia . At the very least, this will help you learn some of the terminology used here as well as give you an idea of common issues and how to solve them.
First thing you want to do is decide which ROM you would like to upgrade to. Take some time and read these threads:
Kavana’s 6.1 ROM.
Kavana’s 6.1 ROM - Remade by Ricky.
NRGZ28's 'Rose' Rom.
NRGZ28's 'Rose' Rom - Remade by Ricky and Stylez
Read the features and changes (for each version) in the first post of each thread linked above.
Once you have decided on a ROM, download the appropriate file to your computer and place the unzipped folder on the desktop.
In addition, download the files below and save them to you computer. (You might need them later.)
SDA Unlock Application (unzip this file and save SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe to your computer)
Tegic eT9 US English Keyboard Layout
Error 270 Fix
So lets get started:

Nobody else ?
Well it seems a realy nice ROM, but please give more description: what is the memory/storage left, why is it a special alternative interface ROM (Is Manilla totally removed ?), what is the system version number, is it based on specific kitchen ? See other ROMs release for the provided details.
As I'm French, I support localized ROM like yours, but in return, non french-speaking people cant' appreciate your work. Good luck !

Upgrade hx2490b to WM 6

Hi! I'm new here so, go easy on me
I'll try to explain:
Today I got an old HP iPAQ hx2490b from a friend of mine. This has windows mobile 5. No problem. Until i realized that WPA2 Was a no-go
Read and tried to understand this; forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1516882&postcount=66 But didn't understand to much. So my question is, Does anyone know of a dumbed down guide on how to do this?
-bolla3
Edit: GOD! how hard can it be to post a topic whitout typing errors.
Why do you want to install old WM6?
Just give a try to WM6.5, you can get it from [here]
It is possible that I am the dumbest person to ever have an PPC, Because I didn't understand a thing..
Ok, I did som testing... When I start the updating it gets to 1 % Then i get ERROR 608 message. On the iPAQ it says "Digital sign mismatch".
Any ideas why?
To update iPAQ you need to use PRE-BL mode.
Contacts + iTask + Reset (with stylus)
Release when Pre-BL appers on screen or if You see just white screen
Connect USB cable or Cradle and push Calendar button to get connection with PC

​
Always HARD-RESET iPAQ after update!
Calendar + Messaging + Power + Reset (with stylus)
Release when Formatting PS.. appers on screen
Hope that helps.

Spiaatie You are a god! It worked! Thank you very much.

[Q] advice

I finally made way to downgrade my htc dhd 2.37 .
now anyone please suggest me which rom to flash and kernels etcs
I am using softbank movule network
after I downgraded my 3G network is not working..
what should I do?? please suggest
With softBank you need to be using the correct APN otherwise you can get charged the wrong amount for Data costs. (At least this was the case with Windows Mobile and SoftBank.) If you are not sure after changing things I would switch off mobile data until you are. See Below.

}
Always backup your original rom using a backup program like Rom Manager which you can use with a rooted phone.
(Label it SoftBank original rom or something. This is peace of mind in case the phone has to be repaired and go back to SoftBank etc.)
You can use a program like APN Backup & Restore to save your SoftBank APN (to SD Card) and then restore it immediately and every time you change roms. (So you can connect to the net/ 3G etc.)
This is important with SoftBank or any carrier.
You can Google `apn backup and restore apk' if you can't access the market with your phone.
Take a look around at rom screenshots to get a feel of the look you are hoping for.
My site has a few screenshot examples here and a list of roms here.
If this was helpful - please give me a thumbs up.

[APP][2/5/2013]ShowTabTip: a workaround to resolve touch keyboard issues

Hi to all members of XDA comunity, today I'm presenting you my new tool, this one is very small and simple

ShowTabTip
Some users used to have problems with text forms (with touchscreen too), the touch keyboard didn't appear and it's very annoying to open osk or the touch panel manually
This tool is very tiny (<900KB) and run in background, only an icon in notification area will be show
This tool check a clicked/tapped textbox and opens the touch keyboard
This is the first version, so sometimes it might not function, biu I've tested with a lot of user, so iThink that it functions correctly
Sorry for bad english
Waiting for feedback!

Does not work on Acer W700, Windows 8 x64. Additional components are required?
As I writed before, this is the first version and sometimes the keyboard did't appear, butI don't know why and I'm trying to find a solution
This app don't require anything other as far I know...
Is this based on an autohotkey script?
Yes, and the script is based on a script that i found on ahk forum here: http://www.autohotkey.com/board/topic/89058-help-converting-autoit-script-to-ahk/ with some edits to make it smarter
This does not work... have tested on Dell Latitude 10 x86... icon appears in taskbar, but I click the address pane in internet explorer and nothing happens, still have to open keyboard manually.. Its a shame because that is something that really pisses me off about Windows 8 and I hate using metro mode all the time because apps only run full screen..
