Hi all,
I've been Googl'ing my ass off today trying to find service codes for HTC phones (Artemis in my case).. you know, the *# type of codes like you can use for pretty much all mobile phones to get access to hidden information / menus.
Does any of you know any codes for this phone, specific?
I need to find out if there is a code on the HTC P3300 (Artemis) that shows me the manufacture date of the phone.
Any useful or useless code for this handset is welcome though!
*** EDIT: Sorry if this has been posted before.. I'm getting cross-eyed by reading all the thread topics
Have a look here and best of all : GO TO WIKI

Yes this is the real thing!
I can't believe how long it took for this to get out to the public finally. This is works (so far for over 1 week) great on my T-Mobile Dash. I didn't need to CID unlock it or anything (though i believe I tried application unlock app and that didn't seem to have worked). This is T-Mobile branded so if you have a different carrier there MAY be some modification required for proper function...though I wouldn't really know since I use T-Mobile -
This thing has it all working so far except the T-Zones in WINWAP. It tells you this version of WinWAP is not supported by tmo..if you are testing you are using an unregistered version and you should contact your test lead to get it registered...No biggie because you can access your account info via the new IE browser.
The new IE Browser is quicker and more functional in general. You also get Live! Search for 411 directory (which can dial/add to contacts directly from there!!!!) also Satellite and road map/GPS/directions/traffic... oh yes no bull... It has Windows LIVE! messenger and email integration to your home screen which is still buggy (gives error and you need to change to another home screen). Tmobile Blue home screen works fine...though there is a BETA stamp in the lower right corner (Also a big red UI TEST BUILD notice when you turn on the phone...oh well).
Anyways...I'm sure you've read all about the new features forever and been pissed that a couple of leaks for other version were out but not our beloved Dash. Here it is guys...Oh yes not a virus either.
Just one bit of advice. BE PATIENT DURING THE UPGRADE !!! It may look like it freezes at some points, but trust me it didn't.
File named RUU_Excalibur_TMO_US_1.20.531.1_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Test.exe and it is 44.7 MB
Since I can't attach it here to the post I am posting the link to a torrent site which I've...yeah...well it's there and it works:
http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1061423/4574331/
If for some reason the link doesn't work go to the main webpage and search...if you STILL can't find it...you don't need to be upgrading your phone - you'll probably break something lol
fo a second there i thought you had a different beta rom this has already been posted but thanks anyways!
thanks for posting a link, but this has been discussed in this forum for two weeks and there are a few threads that discuss different aspects of this rom. you really should do a little research as you will find fixes for a few of the small bugs you are no doubt experiencing
argh...I searched and didn't see any thread clearly saying there was something for the excalibur...maybe I should have looked closer. Sorry guys, but hey - it's another source to download it from I guess. Hopefully someone finds this useful.
Didn't mean to make it seem like I released something "newer" -
oh well - This site rox
Hi
I have been on this forum for awhile since I got my first PDA (XDA II) about 2 years ago but only a few months ago did I register when I got tired of waiting for other people to ask questions for the answers that I wanted.
Now I have an XDA Orbit, and all of these new terms are popping up... such as USPL, CID, etc.
Because I took a long break from the forums I need to catch up with everything, and thats very difficult since its hard to make out what people are talking about and referring to when talking on the forums. I can't really comprehend what people are saying because they are talking about things that I dont know (lol). I have looked through the wiki and it doesnt explain everything, and the acronyms section doesnt contain much.
Although the WiKi is a fantastic place where people can share their ideas as a community, I was hoping that someone could maybe upload a guide such as a text file explaining everything, including terms, what certain things are used for, etc.
One thing that confuses me is that someone managed to get a leaked WM5 rom that 02 use to unbrick devices. From what I've heard dumped ROMs are exactly the same except they cannot bypass the bootloader.. could someone explain why this is? What would be the point of the dumped ROM if it cannot bypass the bootloader - surely you wouldn't be able to flash the ROM?
This is just one of many questions I have - but by having everything explained I hope to work out answers for myself using the knowledge gained from learning all these technical terms.
Thanks for your time.
Well, as much as I know...
CID = Country ID and is used to 'lock' the device to a certain country/vendor id so that any other ROM downloaded to the device would render it useless, sometimes this screws up the bootloader and 'bricks' the device... much like a sim-lock with other carriers, but more serious.
USPL = A program used to circumvent the CID lock by providing a temporary SuperCID, so that other ROMs can be flashed without the aforementioned bricking. It has to be flashed to the device before any 'exterior' ROM download.
These terms have all probably come about after the release of B&B4 ROM by tom coden, which I must say is brill!
Hope this helps,
Pete
Thanks for the info, CID locks I assume are being put on newer PDAs since the XDA II or XDA IIs didnt have these measures?
I would guess so, although I haven't added cooked ROMs to any other device as yet...
Sorry to scrutinise every answer (lol) but does 'cooked' mean that the extended ROM has been edited? or is that baked ROM?
Not being the expert on this I assume a cooked ROM to be one that has been put together, more likely meaning one that is not from the original vendor.
E.g. HTC cooked a ROM in the first place, then O2 edited it and cooked their own etc...
Anyone? Am I right?
well from how i have seen it used over the last few days since i joined, i was assuming "cooked" meant hand made or modified by someone other than the device vendor/manufacturer/Microsoft
Yeah pretty much!
Come on everyone to organize wiki
I agree that it is very hard to get into this... I have been studying for hours these late days...
I just read the 2 necessary steps for begginers:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=FAQ
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueAngel_For_Beginners
I strongly recommend them!
back to the wiki... I think that we should be writting more there and try to be more organized and cross-linked.
Some kind of tree structure would help a lot.
Besides some topics (like the one for BA above) should be generalized to give basic ideas for all devices.
I am quite new to wikis but I feel that we should exploit/collaborate more this resource.
Regards.
Thanks for those links, they are very helpful! I managed to get a read of a few useful links aswell - they were in the Himalaya section...
Also, does anyone know how I can get rid of the notification that displays your balance after making/receiving a call?
e.g. Receive a call, talk or whatever, close the call, then the message: 'Your Balance Is £283.39' (lol just an example im not really that rich hehe) comes up. I was thinking I would have to tweak the registry to remove that..it must autodial the number that displays balance automatically after making a call.
Thanks
Fellas...
I'm back from the iPhone world and have an unlocked Diamond for use with AT&T. Was wondering if anyone knew where I could get the latest ROM from. I went to HTC's worldwide site, and entered the serial number, but it said the update did not apply to my phone. And america.htc.com only allows access to Sprint and Alltel Diamonds.
Thanks

mmmh did you even check here? where you posted.

Of course not! I felt like making you waste your time instead of trying to help. I posted without even thinking of searching the forum because even though I've been using the internet since the Mosaic days, the concept of "search" continues to elude me. jackass...
With this search string "official diamond rom":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410720
with this one "official diamond rom 2.03" :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471699
if you want another official try to post which version you want. I didn't want to be rude but you neither had to. Mosaic really get older faster...
Hi. I've just purchased my first Touch Pro phone, and i'm not liking the Vodafone GUI that comes with it and a friend that uses the Touch Pro 1 says I can get rid of the Vodafone interface for the standard TF3D interface using a program avilable on this site, which I'm not able to find. But it's something to do with putting the original HTC interface over it.
I'd appreciate it if anyone could link me a beginners guide to do this or even post one up themselves. Thanks.
Try using search. I know everyone says it, but there is actually an entire thread called "Vodafone UK users only" which if you just bothered to read the forum you would have found, like I did!
There are two suggested ways to overcome the Vodafone-ification of the otherwise lovely TP2, and comments from users about them

Well I tried searching, but since what I'm not really sure what im searching for I didn't get very far, I was using terms orientated around TF3D keywords. I've found the thread you've mentioned, but that's not exactly a beginners explination.
(not quite sure where to post this so just incase - sorry in advance)
ok, i rang O2-UK customer services today because since ive been flashing my p3300 i cannot access most websites because of an age restriction.
im not looking for porn, im talking about most sites in general.lol
for example google image search url is redirected to:
http://wap.o2.co.uk/18plusaccess?op...MBER''&av_payment_type=2&business_user_flag=3
the operator said i can make a one off payment on a credit card or call into my local o2 shop with my id and they will 'unblock' the restriction on the sites fro free...
* i have id and i intend to go..
further into the convosation i mentioned that this would be in the regestery of the device, and if he told me what to edit id be able to do it myself.lol
however he was not allowed to tell me how to change the regestery BUT said yes it would be in the regestery somewere.
which brings me to my question..
can anyone find out where this is in the regestery and and post me the regestery string where i need to edit.
if not ill be looking tonight myself but would be cool if someone already knew how to do this.
however he also told me if i flash the device again after ive been to the shop - i will have to go to the O2 shop again - to do it all over again.
i hope someone knows what im on about!lol :S
thank you
