Hi I have asked this question in the rom section but I guess it got overrun
Anyway the problem I am having when I use any HTC Sense rom and if I download file using the browser on the phone say for example abc.zip the file download as 1.bin
Can someone please explain how to correct thin problem or it a known short coming of all htc sense rom I do not have this issue with defrost rom.
Many Thanks
I havent got a clue how to stop it doing it but after its downloaded just use your file explorer to change the extention to apk then you can run it
There is some information on this thread it seems like few others where having the same problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=744544&highlight=nzb
For me renaming it after the download does not work. What works, though, is renaming it before the download has started, when the browser displays the download confirmation window. Then simply change the extension from .bin to .zip. I'm using Samsung J500FN.
Help please!!!
I have a bricked USB desire with the latest cyanogenmod 7.0.2.1 rom installed I'm trying to generate an img file to repair but cannot find the rom number for the generator as per the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639
It isn't in the menu settings > about Phone
I have found the kernel number but that's only 8 digits (2.6.37.4) and doesn't work.
Can anyone help been trying to unbrick for two days now without success.
Many thanks
I think rom number doesn't matter, you can use any rom number becouse you will not use your own mtd0.img but this downloaded
Or use modaco way

and google for hex editor
good luck
hi, do you remember the stock rom you had?
the latest update froyo rom (desire bravo gsm) was Bravo_WWE_2.29.405.5
if you have got a desire bravo gsm, you can try with that rom number.

hope this help
Ok guys I've managed to fix it!!! After numerous attempts I've carefully followed the guides in the forum and used the hex editor to create and edit the mtd0.img I then downloaded the terminal emulator and after several attempts at getting the files in the right place on my sdcard and getting the spaces, slashes and dashes all correct in the command lines my device has sprung back into life. Many thanks to this great forum and the genius who came up with the fix!!! Next is to get the Leedroid rom working!
Okei.. Before you tell me to use the search button, ive been searching for an hour for this question..
How can you find out what hboot my G2 is on? Because ive been wanting to flash a radio to my phone and threads say that i need eng. hboot to actually flash it or it will brick my phone..
It will be helpfull if someone tells me how to find out..
Also, can someone please link me to the eng.hboot file?
Thanks in Advanced.
Turn off your phone and then hold power+vol down.
Will it show the eng hboot symbol any where?
Ok, well this is what it says..
VISION PUT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-0.76.200(PC1010000)
MICROP-0425
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-BOOT
It says ENG in the beginning but at the end it say eMMC-BOOT.
sooo, idk?

couple of things...
1) you have engineering hboot as evidenced by the "ENG" in the first line
2) you do not need engineering hboot to flash a new radio. I don't know who told you that, but it is not true. in fact, I would say that it's easier to flash a radio the PC10IMG.zip way rather than the fastboot way. if you need instructions on how to perform a PC10IMG.zip radio flash, let me know. it's very easy.
Can you show me please?
You can find all the radios you need and very simple step-by-step instructions here

I followed those instructions but when i went into bootloader it didnt scan the zip file. I seriously dont know what is wrong.. people tell me to name tthe file in capitals and all but it doesnt work either way.
Any help?

Did you ever format your sdcard to a different format? I think I read somewhere that Android won't read NTFS, only FAT
What do you mean by formating it? Hmm..

Did you rename your file "PC10IMG.zip" and when you do so, make sure that you have windows set to show you the file extensions otherwise you'll end up naming it "PC10IMG.zip.zip"

Yes i did rename it pc10img.zip
Okei this is what i did:
1. Downloaded .30 radio
2. Copied it to the root of the SDcard
3. Renamed it PC10IMG.zip (while in the sdcard)
4. Mounted the sdcard to the phone
5. Turned off the phone
6. Did bootloader by doing so; vol_down and power
7: and this is when i see it get scanned but it doesnt find the pc10img.zip file.
By the way i have the realesed sense 3.0 rom for G2

Ok, I've had this problem before. Delete the current PC10IMG.zip and redownload it, that should fix it. Just be sure you're naming it correctly by changing your settings in windows file explorer to show you the extension of the file

Ahh i don't completely understand this you said..
"Just be sure you're naming it correctly by changing your settings in windows file explorer to show you the extension of the file"
Ok, no problem. When you open "My Computer", click the "Tools" menu, then click "Folder Options", then the "View" tab, then the tenth (or so) checkbox down should say "Hide extensions of known file types". Make sure this is unchecked, as you want windows to ALWAYS show you the file extension, this ensures that you're not misnaming it by accident i.e. "PC10IMG.zip.zip", this should help you prevent that.

Omg, thank you! You were right! On root of the sdcard it said it was .zip while in the winrar folders it said .zip.zip
I flashed the radio already it seems like it didn't do any improvements.. I'm using .30 radio. You recommend me any other radios that work good?

I'm currently on the 04.30 radio as well, and it's about as good as it gets for me. I hear a lot of people have favorable results with the radios ending in .17 and .26 - I think, lol. My recommendation is to keep flashing until you find the best one for you (keep in mind different radios also affect wifi and data speed, not just signal strength)

I've been reading and searching the net trying to find out how to root my DHD and the 1st step seems to be to downgrade the software. I understand what I need to do but I have one problem, where is the downgrade folder I am supposed to be in when I type the adb commands? I imagine it is either part of HTC sync or a folder I have to download that contains certain files like gingerbreak. Non of the posts I've read on this or any other forum have said where to find this downgrade folder, can anyone help?
You posted in the wrong section.
Sent from my Leedroid HD.
where can I find a new radio for my desire the reason is that the one that comes with wildmild roms (that are very good roms by the way) you carnt name the station yourself id like one that I can see what the station names are if I can
Found them here
In the first result, click the mirrors link at the bottom of the first post.
You will find them in .zip format. However if you're using a recent recovery they won't install via traditional 'install zip from sd card' method.
Download the radio.zip you want extract the radio.img. Learn to flash the radios using fastboot (requires s-off), just read the fastboot part.
However, I'm still a bit confused, "you carnt name the station yourself"? What exactly are you trying to do? Changing radios may have an effect on mobile / wifi signal and battery, I don't know if any can "see what the station names are"...
