hello developers
i bought a htc p3400 for a month i read all most all the threads on upgrading gene to WM 6 i tried to know everything before getting myself in troubles so i thought that i must take your professional advice i know all the procedures all the way long to get my gene upgraded but i wanted to know it perfectly before doing anything.
my gene have WM 5 and i am attaching all my gene information pics so you would be able to tell me the best for my gene
so please refer me the links for the tutored instructions for upgrading and the best ROM (better be the original ROM of the p3400i ) ,the best hspl, and the best procedures all the way long .
another request if there is a tutorial video indicating the procedures, it would be very helpful
some information to consider :
s/n: HT8229fw=====
ONBL : 1.10.0000
SPL : 1.10.0000
GSM : 02.79.90
OS : 1.10.0.0
also i had made a ROM dump ( OS.nb , EXTROM.nb )
so i want to know how to use it and transform it into a flash able image so i would be able to restore it to its original state if anything wrong happens
i know i have said that i know all the procedures so why i am asking these so many questions but i wanted to know the advice of the professionals and the developers so i wont do anything wrong specially as i'm in a country that there is no support for htc devices, i have been told that no one would help me as the xda-developers.com users .
i know i asked for many things but please try to help me out and i'll appreciate your help.
i am only asking you to refer me to the perfect threads for my gene
and to refer me to the original ROM of the htc p3400i .
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
1st: do a Hard-SPL;
2nd: Flash your device with a rom.
For your device i recommend you read this Thread
thank you man
sorry man but do you think i wont be having any problems at all with this one
and would you be kind and tell me where i can find the original ROM for the p3400i please
( if you know)
many many thanks for your reply.
and waiting for more recommendings
Genuine advice
Dear brother
My sincere advice regarding upgrading with all these custom ROM is DO NOT GO FOR IT.
Ofcourse u can try these if you are flush with money and do not mind if ur gene becomes bricked.
Okay, Let me tell u some thing. Instead of changing the ROM, you can install some third party applications in ur gene which will improve the look & performance and there is no fear of bricking ur device.
My suggestions:
Batti - freeware
Pocket digital clock - freeware
SPB pocket plus or SPB mobile shell
SPB phone suite
Wiscode Pocketalarm
Second today
SPB Time
SPB Traveler
Vito funcontact - Shareware
Install all these and keep them in the same order in ur today screen and you will see the difference
thanks man for the advice but there is a solution for the bricked genes here
by orefkov and i had made a ROM dump for mine to be prepared
and i'm not going to do this upgrade for only the look
thank you man
and waiting
I only mention this custom rom because is the only available right now for the new genes (s/n: HT8xx).
The only risky process is the hard-spl. Flash a rom never gave me problems (already lost count of how many times I did it testing my cooked roms).
There is a official rom (wm 6.0) here in the forum, but I'm not sure if it works in the new genes.
------------------------------------
PS. sorry 4 my bad english.

To mido0109850352
To dump ipl, spl and radio you need an original rom(wm5.0 or wm6.0) and use nbhextract to dump. I do not know if you can directly dump from the device. Maybe using pdocread
To deepv84
For HTCRT, simply select gene, and it will load the settings needed.
No. you CANNOT use os.nb from others devices than gene. it will not boot.
I made a kitchen for Gene and I'm planning releasing it soon.
I still have to correct some errors before.

sorry 4 my english, i hope you can understand.

Thanks man i'll try it tonight
and for the original wm5 i downloaded it and i already dumped out from it the spl and the ONBL but i am not sure how to figure which version it is so that is why i needed to dump my own ones so i would be sure.
thanks again
but again i needed something else to be sure of ,and i'll appreciate anybody help.
The matter is ,as i traveled through out the hole gene section and read a lot i found that some genes have s/n ht8xxx but in fact accept the old hard spl without any problems , but some other gene with also s/n ht8xxx but in the conterary does not accept it .why?
in my opinion i think the way of of hard spl gene is based on the spl version firstly not on the s/n or the device manufacture date because mine is having s/n ht8xxx but with a 1.10.0000 spl as the same ones that accepted the old hradspl so if you have spl 1.10.0000 you would use the old one and if the spl is 1.17.0000 you should need the new one.
don't you think so?
i am wandring if any one had noticed this thing too and if i'm wrong please correct my thoughts
thank you guys
To mido0109850352
hi sir, every custom rom which i got from this site doesn't contain spl ,ipl
every nbh file contain only os.nb and ext_rom.nb.
and u said u r going to use spl, ipl, from wm 5 rom.
i m novice but i also want to create a full backup of my running rom ,so i m searching a lot in this matter.the orignal posted wm5 rom is not matching with my running rom.so it is useless for me.
and i also have questions -WHY Costom roms dosen't have root certificates??
--can by available backup tools i can dump sucseesfully my all rom parts and cook a rom like original shipped rom?????
if u know How to do plz tell procidure!!!!!!
please!!!!!!!
CAN ANYONE tell me !!!!!!??????
how can check my cooked rom is working fine or not without flashing to my device ,i mean there is any testing tool or emulator for checking cooked ROM???
to deepv84
i had successfully dumped my rom into os.nb and extrom.nb using dump_gene_os_extrom.zip and converted it to flash able (.nbh) file using htcrt (in the attachments)
and while i was searching i found useful tool to dump spl directly from the device (in the attachments ) and i successfully dumped it.
i found another tool to dump the ipl but it didn't work good i think it is for another device (in the attachments too).
but after all searching i finally found the important parts of the rom is the OS.nb and EXTROM.nb wich you can convert them using htcrt(also attached)
because after you do a hard spl for your device hopefully you wont be needing the original spl again because the hard spl will allow you to flash any rom you want even the one you dumped.
but man try to be sure that everything in the right place before doing anything to your gene
take care man
wooooooooooooow yahooooooooooo
hey guys
I has just cracked my gene i couldn't believe my eyes but really i cracked it i am posting for every one who helped me
( many thanks guys special thanks for "Sumit Bhardwaj" you are the man) thanks again guys.
i'll post later on the procedures i followed now i am searching for the best rom for gene to flash .
and if anyone need help i am up to it .
it really worth it
wooooooooow
Congratulations. Now comes the fun
Sorry guys im not going to finish this rom, the main reasons are i got no time to do so, uni and work take almost all my time and the other one is i lost interest in my blue angel, soon il be buying a touch pro so ive decided not to finish my rom, i apologize if anyone got exited about it but its just that i have lost all interest in making the rom , again sorry for not meting your expectations, and lasty i want to give a BIG thanks to swampy for guiding me into the right direction and providing me the tools for doing so, swampy you got my respect and thanks.

Ok guys ive ported or at least i think i did , the newest 6.5 build to our beloved blue angels..but theres a problem the rom is not booting its stays in the bootloader screen, my guess is that something is wrong in the imageinfo.bin or maybe the rom is to big hence the OS wont boot up(although the output .nbf image is exactly 32mb in size), i need help from senior rom cookers xplode,sun_dream,swampy so please guys if you see this post hit me up with a pm so you can help me figured out whats wrong in my rom.
note: Ive removed lots of things from the original rom like welcome center,IE8,widgets,office and a bunch of other crap that makes the rom heavy, don't worry il release them as cabs
And also i wanna thank bepe for his rom tools, xplode/sun_dream for inspiring me on taking this rom cooking journey ;D
Anyways stay tune guys.
Way to go Rafyvitto!!!!
Is it a true release or just a hex edited (aka fake) release? Reason I am asking is because I have seen a load of new builds in the Raphael forums (all of them within one weeks time)
In either case, I am looking forward to it!

Hi mate Have a look inside your XIP.bin and you'll find a little bit of space were you can put some OEM_Driver files "there's not much but can save you some space in rom image, or use explode or sundream XIP.bin as "base xip" but dump "it" and look inside and then remove the extra files you find from your OEM folder and make use of the ones in XIP.bin

We all want to see you growing up as a ROM developer, our best wishes.
Maybe...
Maybe you need to port the xip with other tool, there must be the mistake... ask personally to xplode i think he uses a different way to port, i mean manually. i have saw a thread with this kind of xplanation but i cant remember where...
Good luck man! nice to see you trying to cook.
Im trying to cook 6.1 on Elfin i did two roms now nothing to be surprised of course i need to know so much more!
I Flashed the Hyper Rom just to test. Now that Splash Screen wont change even after a Task 29. I have A number or roms back and forth but that splash Still stays at the Hyper Rom Logo...
Plz someone help. LOL Sorry but i did a Search and couldnt find anything
put stock rom back on then go to a custom rom for a rom that doesn't change it kumar is a good one.
Yea i figured Stock would help But is there no other way
sure there is.
Splashscreens flash exactly like radios and roms. They have their own memory space so arent affected by rom flashing or task29.(unless the new rom has one included, all stock do, and some cooked do.)

Hi,
i have to send my HD2 to the Repair service (because of the touchscreen problem from the first devices) but i had a custom-ROM on it..
Now my question:
how can i remove ALL signs of the Custom-ROM so that HTC cannot say that it is because i had unofficial ROM on it?
I have flashed the original ROM from my SD-Card...
is there something else i need to do?
Nope that's it, it's ok .
Did you check bootloader?
If it's not saying CotullaHSPL you can return it.
@Laurentius26
if I make Hspl, and then for warranty reasons I return to stock loader, can they discover that I was using cooked ROMs at any time?
Thanks...
Nope, if you flash factory stock from storage card, SPL and OS are restored to stock.
