[Hotfix] to enhance the security mechanism of Bluetooth FTP - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Since I see no mention here and search for hotfix yields nothing I guess for the record we should note that HTC finally released a hotfix for security issues with their Bluetooth implementation, even if as usual they do not provide details. Speculation is that it covers the directory traversal vulnerability in the Bluetooth OBEX FTP Service.
Hotfix to enhance the security mechanism of Bluetooth FTP service for HTC Touch Diamond/Touch Pro/Touch HD: http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=0&dl_id=609

"Incorrect version": This hotfix is not compatible with your device
On my Dutch version of TouchHD I've downloaded the European version of the hotfix, but setup is giving me the error "Incorrect version": This hotfix is not compatible with your device.
(I've applied the latest ROM-upgrade several weeks ago)
A friend of mine has got the same phone *without* the ROM-upgrade but also the same error.
I left a note with HTC, and they advised a hard reset ........
Anyone with the same issue ? Any ideas how to solve it (except perhaps the hard reset) ?

Not required for the latest official ROM
I've just had confirmation from HTC that those using the latest official ROM already have the hotfix installed as part of the ROM upgrade.

txs Scarymonkey.... then one 'strange' thing remains: my friend hasn't done the ROM-upgrade yet, but also gets the error...

Siemens SX66 Upgraded coming this week....I hope!

Last Monday, Feb 7, I spoke with Wayne Achaka at Siemens North America in San Francisco. He assured me that they have a firmware update coming out by the end of this week (that would be Feb 18) for the SX66.
He stated that it fixes the Bluetooth issues, especially with the Jabra 250, and improved the Wi-fi support, as well as some other issues which he declined to elaborate on.
Now, I AM concerned that they are going to try some trick in disabling the use of the phone as a modem when connected with a laptop...that is the purported reason Cingular took it off the website for now. I don't use it that way, but I wonder if anyone else has, and how it can be done...!!!
I will post again as soon as I see the upgrade is available.
I dont use my phone that way - but lets see what happens. better WiFi is welcomed. This week the WiFi connects to my network but has trouble maintaining the connection. Odd
What intrigues me is that Siemens says they're coming out with an update, but isn't i-Mate or HTC really the ones who come out with an update first, then all the other "manufacturers" release theirs, possibly with Extended ROM updates? Wouldn't all other manufacturers or carriers be behind or at most up-to-par with i-Mate or HTC?
Food for thought
The siemens is a PH20B1 device thus not on par with the others PH2OB.
The version 1.22, 1.31, 1.35 upgrade is a conbination of the Windows version (CE) as well as patches that have been intergrated into the version.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_ERK_131vs122
Based on a user that tried to update the CE portion (only is what I understtod) of the 1.35 NZ Telcom (a non gsm system) and failed I feel it is safe to say that the major version also adds components (such as protocol) that are not seen in other version of the same number.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=91220#91220
Thus as users all that we can realy do is cook our exteneded rom to the best know up to date postion which is why we have the kitchen.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_RomKitchen
I have found no infomation anywere that tells me what is infact in ms.ndf and we fail to have a tool that extracts that.

sx66
anyone brave enough to put on a pda2k?
Look closely at the 1.35 WWE thread... I'm that bumbling user! I tried it and thought I hosed my PDA2K entirely - it wouldn't boot past the first splash screen! Thank God I was able to access the bootloader (searched this site for some kind soul who provided the key combination: Power + Reset + Record) and reinstate the previous firmware.
So, I feel safer to give this Siemens upgrade a try on my PDA2K. I'll report back as soon as I have an update. Hopefully it'll fix my damn 05 text message issue for voicemail.
BeyondtheTech
I did, before I posted it!
If you get anywere can you do an install with a flushed rom.
Things I would like to know for the kitchen.
Camera, (is there or not) if so what does about report as version and build nr.
BT, What does about report and what do the modules report.
Protocol version
Wifi is it around.
What does windows version and build report.
Still have the q about how you did that intersting upgrade as it has been reported that the password did not work.
Beyond - I did see your post in the other thread yesterday. I'm glad, because you kept me from doing the same thing. A client has a 1.32 rom on a cdma audiovox 6600, and his bluetooth works great. (which is why I was sorely tempted!) Please let me know your findings on bluetooth and if it has wmp 10.
First country code error which was expected.
Then ran fixbat
Came up with header error
The ran for the fun of it BaUpgradeUt.exe
Came up with checksum error which was also expected.
Looks like we are all back to 1.31 Arabic with 1.06.00 FRA.
Would be nice if somebody would solve the password issues
The encryption method is definitely different. It may have been encrypted twice, or that there are two operations instead of just the XOR.
Here's what I know.
1.22's CE ROM password is 0x20040521. Looking into the HTCRUU.DLL file when you extract the self-executable upgrade utility, you can actually see all three passwords at offset 9F83h, 9F8Ah, and 9F91h. Funny thing is that the same passwords are in the RUU.DLL file of the SX66 Update.
A proper XOR decryption of 1.22 CE ROM will show the NK.NBA to have the NBF header and a near-full page of zeros. The corresponding NBF file will show the unXORed data of 21 05 04 20 21 05 04 20 .... Obviously XORing that value will bring back the zeros, as it's shown in the NBA file.
However, looking at the SX66's ROM file, the encrypted data shows 19 E8 7B B6 ... Performing an XOR will turn all those into zeros, but the header is still scrambled.
Also, the end of the SX66's encrypted ROM file, when unencrypted is supposed to be zeroes, just like the unencrypted 1.22 CE ROM file. However, at the end of the SX66's encrypted ROM file, it's 66 00 0B 20 ... Yes, XOR'ing that will result in zeros, but the start of the file is still garbage.
Anyone following me yet?
There's more to the decryption than just the XOR now.
BeyondtheTech
Now you are showing your true colors.
There is a thread on the encription that I dont have saved on this pc.
The xda3tool reports a not a valid header when run agaisnt the siemens 1.35 which could be due to a header change or a encription method. I pass on which one.
Given that you have found the password can you check it against the qtec 169 that always came up with a password error. May be a new one is also stored in the dll. DOwnload found on wiki. thread below.

Thanks Man, is not this suppose be available next week as per tommc4? or this is a different firmware?
Another CONCERN: Why is the firmware 37 M in size? does it mean it will replace the old one without using 37M or not?
thanks

If you change the those hex bytes in the DLL file, the upgrade utility will say the CE file is corrupt. So, I'm thinking it may be related, but it's only part of the algorithm.
I'm convinced there's a second mathematical operation but I don't know what it is. I haven't been able to decrypt the nk.nbf at all, and it's driving me nucking futs. I'm not a good mathematician, either. In either case, I think XDA3NBFTOOL.EXE is due for an upgrade. Who made it, anyhoo?
Anyone else notice that the latest NBF file is 44 bytes longer than the previous versions (1.22 and 1.31)?

Please can someone answer my question.
Please can someone answer my question????
"Guys, can we upgrade our SiemensXS66 with this firmware: http://communications.siemens.com/cds/frontdoor/0,2241,us_en_0_21774_rArNrNrNrN_prodId%3A76051,00.html#Firmware"
The answer is YES. The upgrade is for the Siemens SX66 for use on Cingular's network.
It should be obvious, considering the picture of the unit and the model number and the fact that everyone including myself has been trying for the past week or so to find ways to make it work on all HTC BlueAngel GSM models, not just the SX66.
Thank you for your response, is this upgrade worthful? because, I have seen some people are saying they might disable using PocketpcPhone as wireless modem function.

TomTom 6 and WM6 Official ROM

I have flashed my Orange M700 with the official ROM with no problems, most of my software is working. However TOMTOM detects a new device ID everytime I hard reset the phone.
I have spoken to TOMTOM support who have confirmed that this is an issue with WM6 and at the moment do not offer any official support. They have also stated off the record that it is likly that TomTom 7 will not be released on the WM format partually due to this issue.
Use TomTom 6.0.3 - works for me?!
Which 'official' HTC WM6 ROM are you trying? The only one currently available is the Asian ROM, developed by Dopod which is not supported in the UK; I went from Orange ROM to HTC WM5 without any problem; it was only when I flashed another WM6 ROM (based on the Dopod Beta WM6 ROM) that I had problems. TomTom agreed to give me another activation code, but in the meantime I flashed the Mun-Rus WM6 ROM, and the device code reverted to the correct one.
The ROM 'chefs' suggested there was some faulty code in some of the ROM's- it affected the Hermes as well- which changed the device code, and it looks as if that may have carried over to the release ROMs
Once you have a new activation code, you should be OK, as the devcie code should stay the same till the next ROM flash!
Nealed: The Activation code is linked to the maps, not the application, so if you have one of these suspect ROMs, it shouldn;t matter which app version you have.

WM6 update - "Invalid Vendor ID" bug

I just got off the phone with HTC european technical support.
Apparently theres a bug in the current WM6 release, which is causing some customers to receive an "Invalid Vendor ID" error when they try to update a HTC S620 device.
According to the technical support, there should be a new release available sometime in the next week or so, which should fix the problem. They said there probably wont be any public announcement when its released, so people experiencing this problem should simply try again in about a week or so.
Well, thats what I was told... just thought others might find this information usefull
Thanks!! You saved me a bundle of "hair loss"
BR
invalid vender
new week and still no working update
Any news for us in scandinavian....
Hmm, just called them again, and basically got the same answer... a working release of the nordic versions of WM6 should be available in a few days...
Sooo.... guess we just have to wait and see what happens
Today I have tryed to download VM6 update but still not working.

We are talking WM6 on S620 for Nordic.
Does someone have a link where to download WM6 nordic?
need it badly!

HP IPaq hx2750 WM5 -> WM6... Success!

Hello all...
I've seen LOADS of questions relating to this particular model and upgrading to WM6, both on this forum and throughout the web.
I followed instructions from here, but alas I couldn't get the PDA to accept the new ROMs for various reasons. (I.e. ROM Sink Mismatch, Incorrect Model, Incorrect Version).
I then found this page burried in the links of the above thread, and tried the WM6 upgrade from it... I don't know if it's the PDA4 or the PDAViet ROM (or another altogether), but the big thing is: it works! Bluetooth, WiFi, Battery Indicator, Activsync... everything I can find to test works.
Now... I had originally got Windows Pocket PC 2003 with the device... I upgraded to WM5 using the official "WM5 Upgrade" from the HP UK website... I updated the firmware and drivers for WM5 from the same site, then I applied the WM6 ROM from the link above in White Boot loader mode.
One quick restart later, and now it's working...
So, thanks to all from the massive thread, thanks to the person who made that site, and thanks to whoever made the ROM

HX2750, WM6.5 Bluetooth Radio Problems
Hello,
I've installed Spaaitjies WM6.5 V4, and trying to run TOM TOM 7 on my iPAQ HX2750, I find that the Bluetooth Radio cannot be turned on. The error message that pops up reads:
"The Bluetooth Radio failed to turn ON due to insufficient driver memory available. You must perform a normal rest before you can turn ON the Bluetooth Radio"
So, naturally I've reset the device (soft & hard) but the issue remains. Can anyone advise what I might try next?
Many Thanks,
Gareth

Which BlackBerry Client on my Artemis?

Hello,
I have searched hours to have a blackberry client working on my Artemis :
- have tried many versions
- have tried different ROMs from Meschle
Everytime I have same result I cannot connect to Blackberry and the black berry client does not show any service...
Anyone have HTC P3300 (Artemis) with working Blackberry client?
Please advise I I really need this for my work...
My current configuration :
HTC Artemis P3300 unlocked
Meschle's ROM 4.02 Lite w CUBE
I live in the czech republic and my SIM card is a T-Mobile one with all services activated (BlackBerry + Edge...)
Thanks

look in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369269
Dont work
Thanks for reply but I already read this post among many others it does not work on my Artemis... still cannot connect or get an IP...
How to know which version of radio i have? is it on boot screen?
Thanks
I have an Artemis and I am using the blackberry functionality successfully. Here is a site where you can find all information about HTC and blackberry:
http://sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=276
Under Start-Settings-System-Device Information you can find all information required about the OS etc. of your Artemis. I use the 03.07.90 Radio version and it works fine for me. I use the Artemis Touch 3.01 Rom. Apparently nobody has been able to run the blackberry connect under WM 6.01.
For me it was crucial, to ask your IT department to re-activate my Blackberry account. Before, nothing worked and since then, it is quite stable. I use 4.0.0.97.
Hope this helps.
WM5?
Thanks a lot for reply.
So are you advising me to flash my device with a ROM containing WM5?
I would do it if I find that I can use BlackBerry as this is very important for me...
Are there any big differences between WM5 and WM6? Would I lack anything by downgrading ROMs?
Currently I have Artemis Touch 4.02 WM6.1 WWE ROM, 5.2.19199 (Build 19199.1.0.0) (Lite)
Thanks again.

Jeremy
As mentioned, Blackberry connect does not work with WM6.1, but does with WM6. I am using
Artemis Touch 3.01 Rom
which is based on WM6.
All OK
So I downgraded ROM from 4.02 Lite WM6.1 to 3.01 Lite ...
Then I installed BB Connect (same version as you as all others don't work with this ROM and my device)
Finally I got the everything working!!! What a releaf !!!
Thanks a lot!!
Nevertheless I am looking forward for next ROM from Meschle which will be compatible with newer releases of the BB Client...
Best regards,
P.S. I also tweaked registry in order to save my corporate emails to storage card instead of main memory!!
P.S.2 : Didn't you notice that your device is slower after installation of black berry services?
How did you do the tweak of the registry?
In some instances, my Artemis has become slower, sometimes it even seems, it hangs up. But it seems that this is the price to pay.
BTW, HTC and RIM have now entered into a strategic partnership and all future HTC models should be automatically provided with Blackberry connect. Thus we might see an updated version of Blackberry connect sonn, that also works with WM6.1.
...
Hey,
Thanks for update...
I have modified the registry this way :
1- add "PropertyPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail" datatype="string"
to this place in Registry : HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings
*** Note : Do not put quotes in the value... ***
*** You can edit registry with many editors such as PHM or TRK ***
2- Create a folder Mail in on your storage card
3- Copy whole content of \Windows\Messaging in the new created folder \Storage Card\Mail
4- Finally after you do this make sure that you take away the messaging today plugin from today screen (important... you can put it back after soft reset)
5- Soft Reset
-----------------------------
I have another problem now with the BB Connect. Since I installed it everything is fine just I have to unlock my phone every 30 min using a password. This is very annoying as you have to open keyboard and enter password everytime you dont use your phone for some time...
Do you have this as well?
Is there any way to disable locking of phone?
Thanks
Solved
I have solved the password issue :
I downloaded MEMMAID application which is able to manage system services and I manually stopped the BlackBerry Security service.
Be careful though this is a powerful piece of software which can really harm your device if misused...
advice : do not change the service startup type (auto/manual) just stop the service after each Soft Reset otherwise you will not be able to use your device after soft reboot.
I managed to get my Blackberry Connect working on my P3300. Here are the details:
HTC P3300 (purchased in India)
Artemis Touch 4.02 ROM
Radio 3.08.90
Blackberry Connect Version 4.0.0.97
Device Id set to HTC_P3300
HKLM\System\Version\AKU = .0.3.1
Carrier = Airtel India (http://www.airtel.in/wps/wcm/connect/airtel.in/Airtel.In/Home/ForYou/BlackBerry/)
Connecting to BES on Exchange at company workplace.
I see email, calendar, notes and contacts synced from my Outlook.
Thanks to all for the data/input on versions/radios, etc.
tip
Hey,
I updated ROM (6.1) and for some reason the connection would last few seconds and then I would loose IP address...
Long time I didn't know what to do and even going back to original working ROM it didn't work...
Finally, I deleted my internet connection and soft reset.. HOP the connection was up and running again
So now I will add again my internet GPRS connection (for www and other games/weahter...) and will see... Probably I have to setup some sort of exceptions in the lists to prioritize BlackBerry somehow...
Cheers.
BTW, BlackBerry works with WM 6.1 ! Also there is new version 4.0.0.100 which works as well for me.
