NFSFAN 6.5 + MetroPCS = No Windows Live Messenger - Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development

Hi everyone,
I am using NFSFAN 6.5 the latest build on MetroPCS network. Everything works fine Voice, Txt, Data, MMS, BUT when I try to use the Windows Live Messenger I put it User and Pwd and follow steps 1 through 4, but when it gets to step 5 where it checks internet connectivity it fails.
If I connect the phone to my pc, I am able to follow all the steps and get it to work, but as soon as I disconnect it from the pc and try to sync it through MetroPCS it fails again.
Any ideas? Thx

How to upgrade to official WM06 from dopod?

I have
Dopod 838pro
IPL - 1.04
SPL- 2.10 Olipro
Radio 1.43.00.00
OS - Black Majik
whats the procedure ? as i think there is a exe file in the zip folder which i am currently downloading, if so then how do i extract only nbh. and what about the radio extraction. and flashing.
Pls senior members should post a easy guide, or many will brick their phone.
Reading wiki and researching the forum has confused me as there are lot of tech terms used which is unfamiliar. and different ways i guess. HELP HELP HELP.
For those, who have native ROMs:
01.
Upgrading the ROM Code erases all of personal data and custom-installed applications from the device. Make sure all of your personal information and data are backed up to your PC via ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center. After updating the ROM, copy the data back to your mobile device and reinstall your applications.
02.
Third-party applications may have compatibility issues with Windows Mobile™ 6. Please consult with the software developer(s) before upgrading to Windows Mobile™ 6.
03.
Make sure the remaining battery power is above 50% before performing a ROM upgrade.
04.
Before upgrading the ROM, remove the miniSD (U1000, D810 and 838Pro) or microSD (P800W) memory card from your device.
05.
Do not disconnect the USB cable or start other applications on your PC while the ROM upgrade program is running. Doing so may cause the upgrade program to fail. In the worst situation, your mobile device may fail to boot.
06.
The entire ROM upgrade installation process takes about 15-20 minutes. Please wait patiently.
07.
When the upgrade has completed, the mobile device will reboot and start installation of certain components automatically. This takes about 3-5 minutes.
08.
If you are not familiar with these operations or if you don’t know how to work with your PC, please visit your distributor or contact us for assistance.
09.
Note that once the operating system is upgraded to Windows Mobile™ 6, it cannot be downgraded to Windows Mobile 5. Consider your options carefully before you upgrade.
10.
Users who have a membership with HTC should upgrade via the HTC official website. Upgrades done otherwise, i.e. through non-HTC-authorized channels, are considered illegal. HTC shall not be liable for any damage to the data or the user’s breach of the related laws and regulations.

03.
Windows Mobile 6 New Feature Guide.
After Clicking “DOWNLOAD NOW”, please log in “Member's Club” and find out appropriate WM6 program in “Download System Update”
To install the upgrade:
1. Download the zip file to your PC.
2. Unzip the file when downloading is complete.
3. Connect your device with your PC using ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center, and then run the program.
Press RESET to soft-reset your device. One of the following may occur:
01.
The 3-color installation screen appears: Run the installation program again. Installation will then proceed.
02.
The HTC screen appears and the installation program can be accessed: Run the installation program again. Installation will then proceed.
03.
The HTC screen appears but the installation program cannot be accessed: Hold down the POWER and CAMERA buttons, then press RESET. The 3-color installation screen appears, and you may continue with the installation.
04.
If installation still fails, please visit your distributor or contact us for assistance.

How do I synchronize my PC and mobile device?
To synchronize your mobile device to a Microsoft Windows XP-based computer, you need to install Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 (or later). If you already have an earlier version of Microsoft ActiveSync installed, you must update it to synchronize your mobile device and PC.
To synchronize your mobile device to a Microsoft Windows Vista-based computer, you need to install Windows Mobile Device Center.
How do I get Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 or Windows Mobile Device Center?
If you are upgrading from Windows Mobile® 5.0 to Windows Mobile® 6, you need to download either ActiveSync® 4.5 or Windows Mobile Device Center from the Microsoft Web site:

The improved Calendar in Windows Mobile® 6 has a calendar strip in Agenda view that shows the time range.
If your mobile device connects to Exchange Server 2007, Calendar also allows you to accept or decline meeting requests from others, and add required and optional attendees when you create meeting requests.
What's new about Contacts in Windows Mobile® 6?
Windows Mobile® 6 has added the call history to the contact card. This allows you to see all calls from and to a contact when you are viewing a contact card.
What is Storage Card Encryption?
Windows Mobile® 6’s storage card encryption feature protects your storage card from being accessed by unauthorized persons by encrypting the data in the storage card. Encrypted files on your storage card can only be read by your mobile device.
Attention:
1. When you synchronize your mobile device with Microsoft Exchange Server and perform a Remote Wipe, data in the storage card will be deleted.
2. If the storage card is or was previously enabled on your Windows Mobile® 6 device, you will no longer be able to access the encrypted files on your storage card after you perform a hard reset, clear storage, or ROM update/upgrade. Before performing a hard reset, clear storage, or ROM update/upgrade, make sure you back up all your files from the storage card to your PC first using ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center. Then copy the files back to your storage card afterwards.
If I delete the sync connection settings between my PC and mobile device, will my PIM data be deleted from my device, too?
For security, all PIM data, such as Contacts, Calendar, E-mail, Tasks, Notes, and Favorites will be removed from your device when you delete the sync connection settings between your PC and device. You should back up your data first before deleting the sync connection settings.

Only need to downgrade the SPL if you plan on flashing the ROM from HTC as is. http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=59&Itemid=27
Or, you can wait until someone extracts the .NBH file which will allow you to flash with the RUU and keep HardSPL7(2.10)..
By waiting, this allows more flexability in managing the Radio and ROM releases your self.
you can try to use dutty's nbh tools to extract the nbh file then upgrade. i tried it works fine by not downgrading the SPL
can u pls explain the step by step procedure

Apologies but I'm new to this - my HTC TyTn (unlocked) starts to show the progress bars for the firmware update but then stops and tells me I've got an "Invalid Vendor ID".
I was under the impression that this Dopod 838 WM6 official firmware would work on my TyTn? What am I missing please?
Thanks all,

Upgrade to HardSPL.
then
READ THIS THREAD.
My Method
The steps that I took were:
1. First run the official EXE and monitor your c:\documents and settings\username\local settings\temp folder.
2. Eventually the signed *.nbh file will appear in a sub folder (90+ odd MB).
3. Copy out the *.nbh file to another location.
4. Continue through the EXE eventually it will bomb out and your device will restart.
5. Once booted copy SSPL-HERM (downloadable from wiki) to your device then execute it from the device.
6. Device will reset into bootloader mode.
7. Copy RUUWrapper (downloadable from wiki) into same location as *.NBH file on your PC.
8. Execute RUUWrapper select SSPL as the method and follow on screen prompts.
9. The process does take a while so be patient.
Hope this helps and Good luck.

Hi mrvanx,
First thanks very much for your effort since I have read your guide which is very useful for me.
I am using X01HT with WM6 (Black Pro 3.01 and Radio 1.41 and flashed HardSPL 2.10 Olipro), so if I wanna upgrade to Offical ROM from Dopod / HTC, do I need to use Dutty's tool to extract the nbh file to 7 files? and then repack them (include window, primary splash , secondary splash and ExtROM) ?
Do I also need to include the new "Radio" in the new repackage? (does it rewrite my current radio bootloader)?
Thanks so much!
You could keep the radio if you want to.
But it is still okay to flash back to previous as RADIO version for 1.47 is BL0108.

you dont need to repackage it...ive already done it.
See the relevant thread.
Sorry for the questions, there so much to read on here I'm now going round in circles I think!
1) I've NEVER flashed my HTC TyTn before but I presume I still need to install HardSPL as you advise, this is to save bricking I believe.
2) My unlocked TyTn is on the O2 network, I've heard mention of o2.cab files - do I need to do something extra here, apart from HardSpl and flashing the WM6 rom?
Thanks again, just had this awful feeling that it will flash okay and then I'd find that I couldn't get on my O2 network no more....

Why did I just feel in my bones that when any "official" ROM was released there would be a plethora of "how do I" questions?
Just why did I feel that coming.
I guess though, I'm glad that I've spent months reading, and flashing is a 10 minute no sweat deal anymore, thanks to the efforts of mrvanx, pof, des, and many others.
Config after flashing is another deal altogether.

Can I chg Dopod 838Pro to ATT 8525??

Sorry for my being so inept on this but I have an 838 from Australia and I wanted to change it to use in the US on my ATT/Cingular account. It only displays Asia/Pacific countries so I can't select ATT for internet connection.
I have Vista Business and tired to install the Hard-SPL but even though I've been able to sync my contacts and calendar directly to my laptop, the Hard-SPL dies and says it can't connect to my 838.
I took the next route of trying to install the ATT build with the boot loader but get invalid vendor ID.
The phone works with UMTS ATT as the carrier but I can't connect to my email via the web since I can't set the connection.
Any help would be appreciated.
If you install and run the HTC Network Wizard, you should be able to select United States/AT&T and let it do all the configuration for you.
Once installed, the shortcut icon should appear in Settings/Connections.
File attached.
Seriously though, if you are gonna try to stuff around with the os without knowing what can happen INSTALL HARD SPL... Look on page 116, post #1160 of this thread to do it with the sd card - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Cheers...
Thanks for the suggestions. I keep trying to install the Hard-SPL but following the instructions, it says that WMDC on Vista must be running and it does in fact connect to the 838, but as soon as I try to run the install, it disconnects and ends up coming back with an error that says it can't talk to the device. Frustrating.
Also, since I'm having this comm problem between my laptop and the 838, is it possible to load the Hard-SPL software on miniSD chip and execute it from there?

Yes you sure can. Make sure you read the instructions on how to flash from SD first!
Already gave you directions to instructions to find out how to flash via sd card... All programs needed are in the link I gave you WITH the post # too...

Will the Windows Mobile 6.1 upgrade work on a Unicel HTC S621?

Hello,
I am new to this forum, and I have read through a lot of the links and threads about this, but I have not found the answer to my question. Will these ROM Updates work on a HTC S621 that I have through Unicel? The phone is unlocked, but I dont know if that means that I still have to download the file that will unlock my phone? I am very interested and eager to upgrade my pnone to Windows Mobile 6.1, but I am honestly afraid that my inexperience with doing something of this nature will "brick" my phone and I will be without a phone. It irrates me to no end that neither HTC or Unicel are going to bother to come out with an official update for this phone, so if I want the lastest update to the phone, I have to go through unofficial channels. Could someone please tell me if this will even work for my phone before I try to do it? Thank you
Larry
Yes it will work sir, just follow the tutorial and upgrade... The tutorial is linked below in my signature... Also, as a beginner I would recommend using Ricky's rom version 24. ... if you need any help let me know okay... also, make sure you run connection setup after the upgrade...
Am I going to have a problem, or should I do something different since the instructions seem to be written for a phone on T-Mobile? I am really fretting about bricking my phone and I dont know if Unicel will do anything for me if I happen to brick the phone because I did something wrong. I would really like to try flashing the ROM on the phone to Windows Mobile 6.1, but I am just nervous, I guess. Thanks for the help and wish me luck
Larry
You should be fine if you read it over (print it out) and can follow directions. The main problems people run into are keyboard layouts and 270 errors.

Yah exactly just read and follow instructions word for word...
nobody on this site can promise that nothing will go wrong, but it is usually determine that when something does go wrong, it is because the instructions were not being followed.
you sound a little too nervous to me to be trying this, you may want to either find someone else to do this for you, or take a deep breath, have a beer, and then dive in.
i've done this three times without an issues.
I did it to my unicel S621, and works wonderful! pm me if you need the internet settings after...
He will definitely need the internet settings... for sure...
yes, I need the internet settings please. also, how do I get rid of the "fav5" thing off the phone?

which version are you using? which rom version (i.e. are you using Rickys or Kavana's)
If you are using Ricky's go all the way down to the last thing on the homescreen which should be settings... and then scroll to the right to Chome settings and then in there you can unclick everything you do not like... everything that is bolded will show up on your homescreenv and everything not bolded will not show up..... then restart your phone and you should be on the go...
Hello,
Okay, I have successfully installed "Ricky's" ROM. I followed the steps to the letter in the newbie thread. I installed the keymapping .CAB file. My phone needs the Unicel Internet settings. I have once before reset my phone back to factory specs, which required that I have to go into the local Unicel store and get the internet settings and install them, the problem now is that I could use Wi-Fi to access the internet before with my phone, even though I couldnt through my data plan/cell service. Since I updated the ROM, I cannot even access the new through Wi-Fi. In the instructions, it states that you should run the connection wizard, but the problem is it only lists T-Mobile, AT&T, and Carolina in my phone, not Unicel. I know that the GSM partner of Unicel was bought by AT&T, but I dont want to set my phone to that because I dont know if it will screw everything up if I do.
So what advice can you offer me? Will getting the Internet Settings from Unicel or member Outragis solve all of my problems? Thank you for any suggestions! By the way, I Love the new Windows Mobile 6.1, now I just have to learn how to use it!
Thank You,

Yes just private message that guy that said has the Unicell internet settings as you will need them in there and especially for receiving MMS (picture messages)... so just ask him to give them to you and I bet he will be more than happy to provide you with them.
I did PM him, I hope to hear back from him soon. I Imagine I would need to use Active Sync at home to download the updates to my phone.
Thanks for the help and advice, I am really liking the new interface!

I need Help!
Okay, so I am trying to find the files I need so that my HTC S621 that I have through Unicel to work and connect to the internet. I have contacted Unicel and they sent me a link to a file, and this is supposed to work, but it doesnt.
Here is the email:
Subject: Doing a Hard reset on the HTC621 will remove all Unicel settings
Issue/ Findings:
After doing a hard reset on the HTC S621 you will no longer have any Unicel settings and will need to reinstall them for WAP and MMS. To hard reset the HTC S621 (with the HTC S621 powered OFF) press and hold the 2 soft keys and than press the power button. Do not let go of the soft keys until you see the message to reset your HTC by pressing the send button.
Resolution:
The setting can be reinstalled into the HTC S621 by using a CAB file and a Micro SD card. The File has been posted on the internet and can be installed 2 ways.
Option 1: Active sync
From your PC go to http://www.unicel.com/devices/htsc621.html and download the zip file to your PC. Open the zip file and extract all the files within to your PC. Once this is done you should see the folder 2577 on your PC. Now connect your HTC S621 to your PC (you will need ActiveSync for this part and a memory card) and open Explore. Open “My windows mobile-based device”. Now drag or copy and paste folder 2577 from your PC to “Storage Card”. Once this is complete, unplug your device from your PC and power-cycle your device. After waiting a few seconds, you will get a prompt to do an auto-configure, press yes and your files will be installed. Once the auto-configure is complete, you will be asked to do a restart. Press yes to restart and all the settings the device had at the time of purchase should now be on the device.
After the device has power cycled, a change needs to be made to the GPRS Authentication to ensure connectivity. Please follow the steps below:
Start
Settings
Connections
GPRS
Unicel Info2Go
scroll to authentication type
CHAP
Done
End
Option 2: SD card reader
From your PC go to http://www.unicel.com/devices/htsc621.html and download the zip file to your PC. Open the zip file and extract all the files within to your PC. Once this is done you should now see the folder 2577on your PC. Now open your SD reader, with your memory card installed in the reader, drag the entire 2577 folder to the SD card. Once this action is complete, install the SD card into the S621 and turn on the device. After waiting a few seconds, you will get a prompt to do an auto-configure, press yes and your files will be installed. Once the auto-configure is complete, you will be asked to do a restart. Press yes to restart and all the settings the device had at the time of purchase should now be on the device.
After the device has power cycled, a change needs to be made to the GPRS Authentication to ensure connectivity. Please follow the steps below:
Start
Settings
Connections
GPRS
Unicel Info2Go
scroll to authentication type
CHAP
Done
End
Okay, so I downloaded the file and did what it said, but it is not auto running the file and doing anything. Is this because I upgraded the ROM and the file will not work with Windows Mobile 6.1? I am getting a little flustered and I love the new OS, but I would like to be able to use the internet on the phone. I cant even connect to the internet through Wi-Fi.
Does someone have the correct setting file for a Unicel HTC S621 that I could have to get my phone working right? I would appreciate it!
Thank You
Larry
Couldn't you just add them manually
Start - settings - then each add settings...
I'm surprised Unicel doesn't make them easier to access
This link might help but your easiest bet is getting the guy who commented to read you his.

Running out of memory?
I recently did the Kavana 6.1 upgrade on my Unicel/AT&T HTC S621. Everything is working fine except that the phone is constantly running out of memory (Which, actually, is not really fine...) Using the Free Memory app doesn't really work, as it will free only a KB or so, and it doesn't show the correct amount of RAM, in any case (usually around 5K instead of the 64K actually ob board). Any ideas?
Oh yes, and also, the phone now calls itself a C720W, which is a Dopod (Asian carrier) version of the S621... Anyone else?
Thanks,

I recently change my BB for a Tilt 2 but I haven't figure out how to use it as a dial up modem as I did with my BB are there any software or driver available for vista 64

Welcome to forums
Have a deep read here:

Read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!
Well after reading the last thread I'm still having problems my notebook doesn't recognize the phone as a standard modem I've installed various vista drivers found on other threads still no luck!!
os windows vista 64
im using vista64. it shouldnt matter which version you are using because drivers are automatically installed when you connect via usb. when i first plugged in my tp2, it automatically set everything up. dont try to configure the modem crap in MyComputer, but rather just hook up via the internet sharing app on the tp2 or if your laptop supports wifi, enable wifi on your tp2 and search for the signal on your laptop. the above mentioned forum topics should have more than helped. its easier than you make it bro. btw, are your carrier internet settings correct? here are settings for Tmobile and ATT. hope this helps.
For sure give this thread a read: Wifi Internet Sharing
It's the easiest way to turn your phone into a router and get internet on your laptop. That said, if your laptop or desktop isnt wifi enabled then you'll just have to teather it using "internet sharing" I havn't seen a rom yet (even my stock ATT rom had it I believe) that doesn't have internet sharing built into it as a standard option in the com manager or in the connections settings.
if you dont have the internet sharing app, its HERE in this thread
This most be very disappointing for all of you that have tried to help me on this issue but I'm still having problems...
List of things tried already
1. Installed internet sharing but cant get the phone to connect via usb, the wifi recieve data I've tried the phone on my home network without sim card and it browses the net without problems but can't use it as a router with or without the sim card
2. Follow the att instructions but my phone has the media net setting locked and I can't edit them
"Media Net This connection is pre configure. It cannot be modify'
3. installed all kind of drivers still not recognized as a standard modem
Last drivers instaled was using wmdriverinstaler

Have you tried connecting the laptop to the phone via Bluetooth (if you have that option on your laptop)? I was trying to get Internet Sharing going this way, and once I paired the two, I got an option to use the phone as a dial-up modem, rather than just sharing the phone's ATT data connection (which sounds like exactly what you are looking for). For some reason, I got this option when I connected via Bluetooth, and not USB. Also, I'm using XP, and not Vista, so I don't know if that will change the options.

This most be very disappointing for all of you that have tried to help me on this issue but I'm still having problems...
List of things tried already
1. Installed internet sharing but cant get the phone to connect via usb, the wifi recieve data I've tried the phone on my home network without sim card and it browses the net without problems but can't use it as a router with or without the sim card
2. Follow the att instructions but my phone has the media net setting locked and I can't edit them
"Media Net This connection is pre configure. It cannot be modify'
3. installed all kind of drivers still not recognized as a standard modem
Last drivers instaled was using wmdriverinstaler

which rom are you using?
ok so if you are using the stock rom, why cant you connect? your settings are automatically set up on a stock rom. you must have done something in the connections settings to screw up your connection. just reflash the stock rom.
Well thanks for all the help and suggestions but the problem was the actual phone
I went to ATT and changed the unit and now it works fine I was able to connect via internet sharing using wifi apparently there was hardware failure with my original tilt
Thanks you for all your help!!!
