... after a wrong change in shellres.dll.049.mui !
The hex editor seems not so good... Maybe I didn't use it properly.
Activesync cannot detect the mobile because of that change.
I have the right file on my computer and on my phone (in Temp folder).
I have not safe mode tool installed on the mobile.
I think that a hard reset is not useful because I changed a ROM file.
So, how to recover the file ?
Thanks for your help !

i tryed to change the icons in shellres.dll with ResHacker, but when i put this modified file in the rom, my SPV c600 cannot recognize the MiniSD card...Have anybody tryed to modify this file？And using which tool？
First you must never touch the shellres.dll it self. To change resources create a shellres.dll.xxxx.mui (xxxx hex number of your language).
Also this is a system file so it has to be signed. When you edited it you screwed up the signature so now the system thinks its a corrupt file.
You need to first remove original signature, then edit resources, then sign it again with a trusted certificate.
Frankly I am a bit surprised the Mini SD is the only thing not working on your device right now.
Explain more PLZ

Hi there,
Could you plz explain more how to remove original signature? Also how to sign it agian with a trusted certificat?
I will remain to hear from you.
With my deep thanx
You should search this forum.
I don't remember exactly where, but there was a sort of manual on how to do it around here somewhere.
The tool to sign files is available with WM 5 and WM 6 SDK you can download from MS site. The SDK also contains test certificates, and the tools to place them on the device (provision the device) so you can use them to sing your files.
MS does not have a tool to remove signatures, only an API, but I think someone posted a tool like that here.
Sorry I can't give you more detail, I have not worked with these thing a long time.
The tool is called CeleSign. You can remove old signature and sign modified file with it.
Deep thanx for your wonderfull inforamtion about that subject. After I searched so found this:

But unfortunetly is in Chiness.
the software can be get it from here also:

HI everybody
Like other people on this forum, i'm a linux user
I'm working under Ubuntu Hardy Heron. It's impossible to run any RUU under this system using WINE ( Software than give the possibility to run windows apps under linux ) because it need an active sync connection witch also don't work.
So my request is the following: Can we have a ROM Update utility for our cheer Penguin ?
Big thanks to all developers that works so hard for our community
you and me both: i'm on Linux Mint 5, though
i don't think it's a problem of the people on here: i say it's microsoft's refusing to release drivers for activesync...
There have been attempts made, but i don't know if any of them are going to work with these newer devices... Try googling SynCE...
Hello penguin's friend
SynCE is hard to configure...
But the question is not about synchro, but for ROM updating.
Okay Microsoft is radin... But for upgrading we only need an USB connection for data transfer through the hard SPL.
Activesync is only necessary to retrieve informations from the PDA during an update procedure ( Rom version for example ).
But the flashing procedure doesn't require it ! the prove: when we lunch this procedure the active sync connection stops and the SPL appears on the PDA's screen.
Here is my idea to make it possible under Linux : Run manually SPL on the PDA, and start flashing directly (with USB connection only).
In fact, we only need a ROM Update Utility that pass-through device information retrieving step ( is it really important? ). May be it can works.
All of this could run with wine. But I still think that a native linux RUU is the best way to explore.
There still exist a linux RUU update program (I don't remeber where, but if you make a search into this forum you can find it).
The matter is another one...our diamond don't use the common way to establish a connection with the laptoop ( /ttyUSB0) and so, till now, it's impossible to update...we have to find a workaround for this issues...
I don't understand...
It's the SPL that give necessary connection (usb/serial). Is the problem from it ?
Exactly
Take a look: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410302
By searching, i found a solution by flashing from a SD card with a special SPL.
Its solution was developed for ARTHEMIS PDA here : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_SD_Card_Flashing
Do you think this SPL could work on our diamond ( we don't have SD Card but internal storage ).
I'm afraid to try it. My be it can crash my device permanently ...

GREAT ! i go take a look
Sers,
for Linux, HTC Flasher from the link in previous post is what you need.
It's working well for much HTC devices but Diamond still got some connection issues. It doesn't get attached to any serial port in SPL Mode, so flashing via Linux seems impossible.
Even flashing throught Virtualbox doesn't work because it's impossible to attach the device to the VM.
Maybe you're gonna find a solution, let's hope.

There you're wrong.

In this thread a guy manage to flash Diamond via USB.
OK I have the solution !
It's very simple and don't need any computer!
BE CAREFUL BEFORE STARTING TO HAVE GOOD BATTERY !!!
Install Olinex hard SPL
Connect your PDA to linux in USB Disk mode
Simply copy your .nbh file into internal memory in root folder. rename it to DIAMIMG.NBH
Reset your device with pressing volume down and right key.
You will enter in Olinex SPL flash mode. Wait two seconds and it will ask you if you want to flash from DIAMIMG.nbh !!!
Thanks everybody for your help.
I think this solution is the more simple !
Congrats! Nice find!
This will make things much easyer for many ppl!
regards
demacus
it's much faster than trought async... always used this trick, the only thing to REALLY pay attention to have at least 40/50% of battery
All Right !
Is the file still there afterwards?
Nice find.
Possible to choose from more files?

Well.....The file need that specific name.
You CAN transfer other files and name them, but you wont get a "menu" for choosing.
Just turn to your friend, and use his computer that runs Windows.

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
Hi, anyone knows a way to how to remove AT&T "global phone" orange splash screen without flashing the phone (Samsung focus)?

Im not sure if this works on samsung focus (or under Mango) ,but Im gonna try it , the method works great for replacing alert tones , so I cant imagine why it wouldnt work for the image as well!
I might add , you dont need to follow those intruction , just open heathcliffs root explorer (you need to be dev unlocked ) , go to the windows folder , copy your picture and put it in my documents, (you have to email it to yourself ,open in phone and save,it will go to the wallpeper folder,for there make a copy) once the windows folder is open and stops loading , hit paste , it will say its gonna overwrite the original , let it ,then get out of there restart your phone and it should be there .

i have a old mediacom tabled... a smartpad i10 3g (link to product at mediacom -> http://www.mediacomeurope.it/tablet/scheda.aspx?XRI=30) and i have tryed to restore to factory instead so many little troubles.
I have download the FactoryTool.... i have installed the Flash driver and i have download the firmware for my serial............ i have extracted it and i try to flash following the pdf instruction.
I have turned off my tablet.... clicked run and connected the tablet to usb pc port.......... i can see a usb driver has correctly loaded (Intel USB Flash Loader Utility) but on FactoryTool i see so many problems immediatelly.
So many times i see an errors says: Syncronizing device failed.
I have tryed so many times (also ever restart my pc) and some time i see an errors says somethigs similar "failed to download boot.fls"
Now what's the problems.............. the tablet it's apparently dead! i can press the power buttons also for 20 seconds and never append... the screens goes ever black and never appends.......
How i can do now ? It's time to trash this tablet ?

OH.. ok...
Otherwise i found the solution later the same night........... i thinks it's a BUG on Flashtools 1.28......
When i extract the mediacom firmware downloaded from site i use a folder on D:\ . The zip files of roms contain a special caracter inside and the folder.
When i load all firmware files inside flashtools apparently all it's be loaded correctly but during the flash operation i obtain ALL FILE CAN'T BE FOUNDED!!!
Yeah... all files it's not be found because the app can't reach the files in this "special" folders!!! I have notified it only after hours and hours and i have read it inside a log files (ah.. all files log it's not a text files...... very strange).
After i have read the log files i copy all files extracted inside a folder D:\AAA......... i reload all files on flashtools and BAAM!! The flash opertion it's completed whitout any problems!!!
DAMN!! it's only this the problems.... the flashtools app can't reach the files if it's inside a strange name folder!! DAMN again
Now the tablet it's back to live again......... but apparently some of little trouble it's remain like the continuesly disconnession from my wi-fi............. i don't have idea what's it's the problems.......
Can you explain with more details please, I have the same problem with a tablet : Mediacom Smartpad i10
Is there any video explaining the solution ?
