Rogers HTC Dream custom splashboot image

anyone know how to do this....i found some for the G1, but i cant seem to find any of the files that it mentions in my phone...i have searced and searched.
so if anyone knows the answer to this, please let me know
Edit: never mind. I just went for it. And know I see the aperture science logo when my phone starts up.
The aperture science circle looks shockingly like the Rogers circle. With a few more slits

Challenge - Root my NEC N-04C MEDIAS

I am laying down a challenge to see if anyone can work out how to root the NEC N-04C MEDIAS...
I haven't found anything about this phone being rooted...apart from some attempts by some Japanese guys, which have so far failed, as far as I can tell...
I don't know much about phones/computers, but know enough to get me by. Have tried to learn how to do it myself for the past few months, but don't have the skills.
So...it is over to whoever reads this and wants to take on the challenge...
I have copies of the following files which I can post online if needed:
These cannonly be downloaded from NEC using the IMEI of your pruchased N-03C MEDIAS phone...
bionic_N-04C.tar
external_N-04C.tar
kernel_N-04C.tar
system_N-04C.tar
vendor_N-04C.tar
I am not sure if you need these files to work out how to root the N-03C, but they may be useful...right/wrong?
Anyway...looking forward to hearing from people about this challenge, and if anyone thinks they can root this phone...or knows of anyone who has rooted it already.
Nobody interested???

Any luck so far? I have also asked a few people about this as I am going to Japan very soon and seriously considering this phone. But I may have to get a Samsung Galaxy (blech!!!) instead just so I can have root privileges.
I have the same problems. Wish someone help.

Anybody needs a Testdummy twom?

If anyone has any jailbreaking/ROM snatching ideas but are too afraid to use the software on their twom I can be your test dummy, a part of my phone broke and I got a new one. The broken one is still fully functional, just the mic doesnt work, however I can test any software or any trial runs of anything if needed, just post here
BTW i know there hasn't really been any progress in anything and nothing can really be done at all until we get ahold of a ROM or the drivers, just thought Id offer, since ive been paying attention to these forums for about seven months and haven't chimed in

is there anything else??

well ive found a good rom that i feel is right for me. its paranoids aokp, cyanogen, mix. got some good stuff on it...and have yet to have an issue.
i feel like im at a stand still. ive helped friends out with their s3's and they love it. im just wandering...is there anythign else?
ive read about the modem deal, but thats all greek to me, is there any benifit to changing or putting one on my phone? ive yet found a kernel that works with my phone, granted that ive only read that kt747 and another stock based one are really realiable. but has anyone that is using or used my rom, found one? i really like aokps boot animation! is there a way to put that on my setup?
im just wandering is there anything more i can do, really to setmyself apart from the average s3 owner? granted i am a guy, like any other one, the first thing i do to a car when i get it, is make it louder!! lol. so, that being ssaid, i feel like it aint over till, well theres nothing more i can do! :laugh:
It's hard to answer your question objectively. But that's the beauty of android, its up to you set experiment and find the ideal setup. Personally, I don't mess with kernels because I'm not into overclocking, and I wouldn't mess around with modems because they're there to ensure you stay connected and there is not one which performs substantially better than the other.
Good luck!

There's themes, I use KT747 for the kernel and keep the latest modem. You would flash them like a rom and fix permissions after the kernel being flashed.

Bought a used M9 and its really messed up

I bought a used HTC One M9, and everything seems to work fine until I try to update it (Its on Android 5.0.2) it looks normal but then goes to this screen (See attached photo). I guess the phone has S-off? I'm not really very good with any of this stuff, if anyone can help me get back to stock so I can get OTA's that'd be great. I tried doing all the research I could but have gotten nowhere. The phone is an unlocked model, I was told it's a developers edition but IDK how to tell the difference. There is no carrier branding so I'm assuming he didn't lie, and that the phone actually is unlocked. If anyone can help it'd be very greatly appreciated, I planned to use this phone as my main phone but I cant use it on almost 3 year old software.

Not to be polemic but, writing: "its still screwed up" don't help at all. Too much links and redirects? Well, write it about. Suggest some own ideas, if you have one.
Maybe you lost THIS.
Greetings
