I'm really new to this whole thing of flashings ROM's but my friend said that it is the way to go. I just did my first one, which was the Kavanna 6.1. Now my computer won't recognize the phone, the keyboard is all messed up, I can't use the internet on my phone, and I would like to have the my faves thing back on the home screen. Is there anyone that can give me some assistance on these issues? I would really appreciate it!
First, you need to delete the sync relationship from your PC, as you effectively have a new phone and you don't want any conflicts.
Second, you need to make sure you uncheck one of the USB settings. I don't recall which one, but do a search, the question's been asked numerous times before.
Third, now that you have your phone recognized by the PC, you can install the Tegic keyboard mapping cab. This fixes the keyboard issue. It's a sticky in this forum.
Finally, check out the Wiki for the Tzones settings so you can get back on the internet. This is also a sticky in this forum.
As for My Faves, it's no longer on the phone. You can change your My Faves settings online though.
Next time do a search... every one of your questions has been asked and answered before.
True but...
True these problems have been asked before but when I plug my phone in after doing what you had stated it says that windows has found driver software for my device but encountered an error while attempting to install it and that the requested device registry key does not exsist. I have found the stuff for the keyboard except I can't get my phone plugged in. Any suggestions?
no, really...ALL of this has been covered

Hi, i have just upgraded to Windows Mobile 6 the black 2.5 edition.
Whilst I was doing it i had my memory card left out which had applications on it, now when I put it back, the applications are not there..? I copied all data from active sync > explore (except my windows mobile device) and then I copied it back after upgrade. I am not fussed that the programs are gone, it would be good to get them back though, and since the card was not inserted during the upgrade, the application files must still be on the card somewhere taking up space...?
Anyways, I can't seem to get the 24 hour clock on it and also can't change the date to the UK style e.g. 24/04/2007, it is stuck in american style e.g. 04/24/2007. Any answers...?
Is Windows Mobile 5 applications supported by Windows Mobile 6? Can I have links to Windows Mobile 6 downloads please
Also , I do not like the boot screen, I want to put a picture of my wife and son, how do I do that? Sorry I am an intermediate user.
Please read the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
before you get abused.....
Couple of pointers though, you might want to check your country is actually set to UK, rather than the default US.
When you install Black you wipe out the entire OS, the application files will be on the card, but the shortcuts in the OS that you find in the menu's and the programs directory will not. Search the card to see if there is actually anything on it at all.
You cant actually copy installed Apps with ActiveSync, it doesnt work that way, you can use it to re-install apps.
Most WM5 apps will work with WM6, but some will not and some will have odd behaviour because the programming interface isdiffeent to WM5.
But please, read the Wiki
Sorry, unable to help with the card issue.
But, the 24 hr clock & date is in settings, regional settings & set to english (uk).
The splash screen is explained in Mr Vanx upgrade guide, where it is explained re first & second screens.
Hope this helps & sorry if you have already completed or read the guides
Or, leave settings on US and choose (in Settings, System, Regional Settings):
Time: HH:mm:ss and you're on 24hr clock,
Date: dd-MMM-yy and you're on European date.
And if someone flames you for asking, screw that
Thanks very much. The ony things I need to do now is fix the wifi, it doesn't turn on..?
Also, the start bar sometimes hides....
and about the applications on the card. they are still there under "program files" and can be opened but some of them - registration fails. The shortcuts are not in the menu though...
Also how can I add a running programs shortcut on the bottom like I had on WM5..I can't seem to do it....
Sorry for sounding so dumb...

Hmmm, there is a known issue with wifi settings getting wiped out, there are a couple of threads about it in Hermes upgrading, Olipro and pof are working on a fix that they say should be out in a few days.
Dont know about the start bar hiding, havent seen that myself, as for the apps, I would say maybe install them again to the same location to put all your shortcuts back, technically you will just be putting the same files on the storage card and any settings that went on the card should still be there.
I cant find a way to add running programs either, go into settings/memory/running programs or use the taskman program. If anyone else has seen a way to add running programs to the softkey setup I would be quite grateful too.
Its not about sounding dumb, you dont - you're just lacking the necessary info, its just if you ask questions that have been answered elsewhere people figure you are just being lazy or ignorant especially if they are the same kinds of questions that people keep on asking that can be answered by doing an advanced search and selecting show posts instead of show threads.
Just keep at it, you will get there in the end.

Thats odd because the wifi and radio dont actually have anything to do with each other, radio rom controls GPRS/3G stuff. Oh well, go with it.....

Really..? That could be why my web pages weren't opening. I've just been on the phone to T-Mobile as it goes and they say that their 3G is down. I'm able to connect to GPRS but loading the web pages it just says opening and nothing opens. They said it should be OK in a few hours...oh well.

LOL no that time my network problem was fixed because i had went to Radio 1.40 just web pages werent working. Then they called me back on my work phone to help me solve it anyways...
I recently installed a different ROM onto my device, and now when it syncs with my PC to install the device driver, it installs "Micro$oft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter #3." What the hell is this? Removing it from the Device Manager only reinstalls the same one and I can't sync with WMDC. How do I get Vista to install the correct driver, and why did it never have a problem before?
This happened to me as well after I installed Schap's 3.54c ROM would like to know if there is a fix.
Oh come on, guys. I really wish just once someone would successfully answer one of my questions. This is kind of a big deal here. I can't flash another ROM if I can't sync, and I'm a little skeptical that NO ONE HERE has ever encountered a solution for this. Help me out!
You've been very lucky my friend.

You’re damn lucky no one has flamed you for all of your noob posts. You need to post less and search and read more.
However, because I'm somewhat of "noob" as it relates to posting but, I'm a bit of veteran when it comes to flashing, etc. I’ll bail you out on this one.
1) First, in order to flash from Vista you should visit the Incredible MrVanx’s site. That should allow you to flash from Vista (I haven’t tried it as I have an XP machine right behind me from which to upgrade my 8525 without the risk of heartburn).
2) If it’s syncing you want then you may need to disregard the above and follow the advice posted here.
And, as advice I gave to another smarta** poster (free advice being worth exactly what you paid for it). Drop the attitude and improve your searching/reading skills. If you don’t want to do that, then stop f’ing around with ROM upgrades.

Meanwhile, you need to post less and learn to read more carefully to the posts of those you're responding to. I have flashed ROMs a number of times. Where did I say that I did not know how to flash a ROM? I said that I can't now because since my last flash Vista will not recognize my PPC. It installs the wrong driver and I cannot figure out how to change that. The only thread I found that seemed to answer this question (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303634) did so in italian.
I also found another thread dealing with this same problem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=301876&page=3) but aside from re-installing Vista which I am loath to do, none of those solutions worked either.
And as for your second thread you directed me to, I'd already read that and tried downgrading WMDC before. I suppose I should have clarified myself by saying that it's not simply that I can't sync, I cannot connect my PPC to my computer through WMDC at all. I should have been more specific, but I figured since I mentioned that it kept installing the wrong driver, you would have been able to figure that out on your own.
And let me get this straight, you call yourself a veteran flasher, but don't even HAVE the computer operating system I'm having trouble with? Perhaps we both have things to improve about our postings, Timmy.
As for all my "noob" posts, I searched all of them before posting. Not to mention I've only had to post three previous questions which I could not find an answer to on here or elsewhere, those being
A) Is it possible to copy the gwes.exe.0409.mui without having to do a ROM dump? (Never got resolved, though Sleuth at least tried the basics).
B) Is there anyway to redate SMS's since Jeyo screwed them all up when using the program to back them up. (Never got resolved).
C) Can anyone help with the device lock asking for a password I never set up? (Yep, never got resolved).
If you would like to direct me to RELEVANT threads that answer these questions, I'll be more than happy to thank you for it, but until then at least you did get one thing right about your post, that being what it was worth.
Don't know if you've tried this, but.
I had the same issue. After installing one of JJ's ROMs, I couldn't get WMDC to recognize the new build. Broke all partnerships, nothing helped.
I then completely uninstalled WMDC and rebooted. I then went back to MS and grabbed WMDC again. It installed, I plugged in the TyTN and crossed my fingers.
The drivers re-installed and everything is good in the world now.
Also, Mr. Vanx's guide for downgrading drivers is not necessary for the HTC official or at least the last three builds of Black. I can't speak for any other RUU's, but the latest completely work with Vista (Ultimate & Enterprise, at least).
Hope this helps you out.
Thanks for the effort, silverfox, and the tone. Unfortunately I've tried that a couple of times, and it still goes along merrily installing the wrong driver. Does anyone how I could manually select the "HTC USB SYNC" driver? Not even sure where it's located. Checked under system32/drivers but it's not in there.
Nevermind...

Wrong again blowhard, read the post again, especially the part about where I say I have "...an XP machine right behind me..., I'm posting from a Vista machine.

Oh Sh!!T... I just changed the bbsecurity service to manual from automatic, now I cannot get back into my TyTn... does anyone have a quick fix other than HR... I've tried SR several times, but that didn't work... I can connect via ActiveSync, I just need to start the BBSecurity service, then I can input my password (theoretically anyways) and should be fine... I used Memmaid to make this change... Just another example of using advanced tools without knowing the ramifications....
I guess i should have asked for more clarification first...
I almost hijacked someone else's thread, so had to start my own.... Mods, I apologize in advance...
originating thread is here
Never mind, I bit the bullet and HR... now for my next trick...
I am not sure if this is the correct place for this thread, and it is my first post so please be gentle if this is the wrong place. Sorry to the Mods in advance.
I purchased an at&t Tilt when it launched and have loved the phone since I got it. A customer came into my store the other day with the Touch Flo Cube(I believe that was the correct name for it)setup running on his. He showed me how it worked, and I fell in love with the user interface on the spot. His Tilt also played streaming videos from Youtube and other websites and said there was a software update for that too. I have been online for the last few days researching software updates for it and have had not problem finding any. The problem is that everywhere I go there is a GIANT warning saying that if you install this stuff without knowing what you are doing it will ruin your phone. Well, as stated I am a Noob to all of this. I have no idea how to do any of the stuff and have not been able to find New User Friendly instructions. I was wondering if anyone out there could help me with updating my Tilt to run the interface that I mentioned, and or if someone could point me in the right direction to find instructions on how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
im having the exact same problem ... i read oen that said to run it on ur computer then sink it with your phone and then i read one that said sink your phone then run it on ur phone .... but which is the right way?
im having the exact same problem ... i read one post that said to run it on ur computer then sink it with your phone and then i read another post that said sink your phone then run it on ur phone .... but which is the right way?
ok, the best place to post this is in the kaiser upgrading forum. dont be scared, we were all noobs once. If you read the instructions properly, and follow them properly, you will be very very very unlucky if you damage your device. The roms and unlockers only have those warnings because they arent responsible if you break your device, and though its obvious, they still have to say it.
kaiser upgrading and unlocking : http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=378
So dont be scared, but be cautious, and take your time, rad it all, and take heed of the warnings, but dont let them put you off...

Sorry, another dumb question. I have found a person on htcwiki.com that says all I need to do is to install the Cube programing to my Tilt, then when I open the folder, it will auto install the files to the correct places on my Tilt enabling the Cube to work. Does this seem correct?
The cube updating changes the browser to mirror the i-phone correct? Where I can simply run my finger across a web page to scroll from left to right and side to side?
Where would I find an application that would allow me to view Youtube videos?
My WP7 (Samsung Focus) Has been dev unlocked before, I am doing the SAME exact thing except it just decides its going to give me the error that its not plugged in or its zune is not opened which both are done.... I have no clue what is wrong I have tried everything but nothing is working.
Things I have tried include making my host files not read only, Reseting phone, Restarting computer, Restarting phone... I have been trying for about a week now and I decided to bite the bullet and ask for help
Welcome on the forum...
i suggest you use a function called: Search.
And browse the stickies.
Remember: you are not the first with a problem, or at least not the only one.
Asking for help is easy, using the search function does not irritate ppl.
Thanks.
Have you made sure that the lockscreen isn't showing? I'm pretty sure your phone has to be on the home screen.
