hi!
unfortunately i've forgotten how to put my universal into bootloader mode :-(
I'd really appreciate if someone could tell me how to do so!
(i can't search around easily as i 'm on gprs here and its awfully slow :-()
Thanks in advance!

Reset, whilst holding down the two "-" keys (soft keys), and then press "0" (zero).
Tip...being slightly more specific with your title would probably have meant getting a response faster! :lol:

The above post is just for a simple hard reset. It has nothing at all to do with the bootloader. That is 'light+power+reset'
Oops...my mistake. That's what I meant to put...
Sorry.
Ant
thanks everybody!
I badly needed it to flash my rom...
Had to get rid of the horrid rom from o2!
back to my dear old qtek rom once again
cheers!
San
horrid rom
I have the qtek and the o2, and I have the 'horrid' rom in both units. Everything works perfectly, so I am curious as to what problems you are having. I have 1.13.82wwe, 1.13.188wwe, and 1.06.00. I have installed lots of software as well, and everything works.
its the extended rom (from o2) which went loose and took a leak all thru my universal ;-)
I accidentally went into basic install, shifted into corporate mode later on....and it happened to leave a lot of crap in the windows folder...something went wrong for sure...and especially since theres hardly any differences in either of the roms...and qtek has lesser "goop" in the ext_rom, I just preferred to head back to good 'ol qtek rom ;-)
cheers!

Quicker than 6 minutes? That's pretty quick...
I'd be so happy if all my questions were answered within 6 minutes!
My camera's flash stop working, sometimes can't hear incoming call person's voice but hear my voice echo, no drops/scratches.
What steps am I to do?
Here is what I have done so far:
- Cleared my storage (factory reset)
- It was CID unlocked by lokiwiz unlocker, but I locked it back with lock_backup.bin
- Had Cingular_Custom_AKU2.3_Combo_Installer_V1.exe put in; but downloaded and installed HTC's original ROM from their site: http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8125/software-downloads.html
ROM 2.25.11.1 WWE: http://www.htcamerica.net/support/docs/RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship.exe
(their ROM also fixes the blue speckles from the camera but not the brightness)
I'll be receiving my replacement phone today since Cingular's warranty facility is only a state away...
Hope this is all I have to do?
Thanks in advance!
you should be good, i have returned several 8125's with the cid still unlocked, so you are more than covered

i wont say its way better, it has its improvements and disadvantages... if this phone had the same battery life as i had in the wizard i would be sooo happy
8125 return/upgrade
I still can't hear crap w/ my 8125. I have Cingular and have had several replacements units. They have offered me BlackBerry, but want to stay with PPC! Anyone have success or inside info for getting it swapped out for an 8525?
Did anyone have a problem returning a CID unlocked wizard for repairs? I've CID unlocked, and installed custom roms.. My plan was to just grab the original cingular ROM from the website and send it back like that..

How can I see the cabs you have on your repository? clicked on your cab repository link, and got no cabs. Is it because your site is still under construction? When will the cabs be available?
Thx!

Hi!
Since yesterday my ok, windows, on and off hook and -- buttons aren't working anymore. The button in the middle and the cursor are still ok. Any ideas?
Due to the fact that the "--" (left and right) are not working I can't even do a hard reset.

Hi all,
OK I did a hard reset but it didn't work. Still no go :-(
The black coating is also peeling off. What a nice device.
mine just packed up too
more and more bugs are showing up every day passes... I somehow knew It would happen.. I don't think I'll take the risk of buying a p3600 through import without warranty after reading all these problems..
Good luck man
Trinity working well ..

While I dare not say my Trinity will be problem free, so far it has served me well. Everything is working as it should and the internal GPS has been enabled without a single problem. I'm on the test ROM (AKU3.3) and so far the performance is much better than my old Dopod 838 Pro (Hermes).
So far I have been very impressed with HTC built devices. A friend of mine's Dopod 838pro (Hermes) went into the pool accidentally, and it refuse to boot. After 3 days of intensive 'drying' it finally came back to life and it is working problem free until now.

Hehe, good to hear that....
I'm personally considering the hermes (TYTN) myself, because it's available here with warranty.. I hope the new ROM with AKU3.3 will improve it..

My personal advise to you would be to test the 3G call on that device before you buy it. The only advantage the Tytn has over Trinity is:
1) Flash light & Macro Picture
2) Keyboard
3) Additional hard button (Messaging, IE, 3G call)

The main reason I'm considering it is that i can buy it from here in israel with warranty, I don't wanna risk buying the trinity abroad.
I don't really care about 3G calls, I never use it, but 3G internet speeds aren't bad
the keyboard seems a big advantage over the trinity. The main advantage of the trinity is the small and pocket form factor, but unfortunately I can have it only by importing it

No. It's @ HTC since 2 weeks

ok cheers, if it's any help they have repaired mine twice for this issue. Originally it went in for the peeling paint, but while they had it the buttons failed the test so were replaced. Then when they bodged the repair and it went back again, again the buttons failed the test and they replaced again.
Then when I get the phone back...the buttons don't work! Incidently before they started repairing the phone I never had a problem with the buttons
Hi!
I know that this thread is quite old but I prefer to post in this thread rather than opening a new one (sorry if I am not doing well but I am new at the community )
Yesterday I was working on a P3600 and suddenly all buttons stop working. The irDA also did not work. I have left the phone all the night without the battery (I really don't know what I was trying to achieve ), and this morning the buttons (and the irDa) did not work yet. Now, after a hard reset, it seems that all is working as it should.
My questions are, why after a hard reset? (it seems to point out a software issue); is this problem related to the touch screen problem I've been reading about in the forum? (perhaps the cause is the same); and finally, is it likely to appear again?
Thanks in advance
ROM version: 1.15.412.2 10/23/06 (original one)
Radio version: 1.20.00.11
ExtROM version: 1.15.412.101
My D-pad select, down, right and OK have been getting steadily worse requiring more pressure to use. Mine isn't software related. Just sent it back today asking for the black peeling issue to be repaired as well.
I held out as long as I could hoping that any issues had been resolved by HTC. I'll post when I get it back.

did u get it back? my keys also stopped working..windows + ok + up key.
should i contact htc or e-tailer?
You will probably have to get return authorization through your retailer.
It's been about 2-1/2 weeks and no word from HTC. I emailed them today. I will be sure to post when I get it back regarding GPS Rom and peeling.
Just got it back - all pretty again. They replaced the bezel and switch board. Still has old rom but I am happy.

I've had the exact same thing happen twice now. Everything is going along fine and then suddenly all the keys stop working until I do a hard reset. The touch screen keeps going as normal. I haven't tested the IRDA but it appears that USB and active sync don't want to go either. A hard reset solves the problem but then I have to reinstall things which is annoying.
There must be other people out there with this problem. Has anyone come up with a solution?
I don't think, that there will be a fix...seems like a hardware problem to me.
I have nearly the same....the red and the green call buttons don't work properly!
For me they work immediately after a soft reset and then stop again within about 30 seconds. Hardware or software? it would appear to be software but I had the same issue using the official T-Mobile WM5 and still umder Black Satin WM6.....
think I'll flash back to official ROM and take it into the shop tomorrow!
Yes, it's true. My Wizard revived, but with a small problem: the backlight doesn't turn on not even after some Hard Resets and even on bootloader mode, the screen is dim all the time.
I've also changed the settings on the slider with no success and searched the forum and found no answers.
What can cause this and what is the "cure"?
Thanks in advance.
probs it the LCD find out what type of screen it is my mate can get hold f one at a decent price if interested

Thanks for the tip. Is there any way we can fix the light?
The screen works, the touch works, but it's far too dim to use it.
Anyone else?
You say you have hard reset it, but have you tried flashing a different original rom to it to see if that fixes it? It might be a hardware problem with the lcd but i did have an issue once on my himalaya after flashing a new rom and i couldnt get the backlight to work, but after flashing an original rom it worked again and then i reflashed a cooked rom and it still worked

I'll try that!
I've already flashed the original one...maybe flashing it with something else could fix it...
Thanks again
OK, just reflashed with a WM6 ROM (TNT.1933_Professional___HTC_Home_Wizard.rar) but it's the same. I can barely see what's on the screen. The screen works, the touch works, but it's too dim to use it.
So maybe it's not the backlight, I think it's the front light...
I also have dismantled it and cleaned out the contacts, re-assembled and flashed it again with no luck...
Help?

WM6 ROM (TNT.1933_Professional___HTC_Home_Wizard.rar) <---- that isnt an original rom, i am on about a operator rom that was officially released for your device, i.e. mine is an xda mini-s so my original provider would be o2, so i would use an o2 rom update that was released by them.
What you have basically done is install a cooked rom from itsright. Whoever the phone was released by try flashing their original wm5 rom to your device to see if it fixes it. THEN try flashing the tnt rom
Ok, some new developments. The LCD is fine and working and there's no problem with the backlight. I've manage to find that the issue was the mainboard all along.
I've used another LCD (a good one) and the backlight was still on, so the problem might be the mainboard is fried.
So, anyone can help me out? I just need a new mainboard (can be with the USB Connector in bad conditions, cause I have some solder skills).
Please help me out.
Edit: The Thing now doesn't charge properly. After some time, I get a flashing orange led and my Wizard heats up like it's going to blow...
hello Everybody
returning Universal user, just bought one used from a store, then a just whent on trying a lot of different Wm6 roms but they all had the same problem on my Uni, they ALL crashed by either freezing or just "turn off itself".
then after some time using the rom it crashes hard that it cant be turned on then it crashes at the boot screen.
i would like to get the original Wm5 rom back but where to go for finding it?
Regards
Prosasan
There are more mobile providers which sold Uni, so there are more factory WM5 versions. Personally I'd recommend the TMobile one. I'm sorry, but at the moment im using my notebook, and i dont have the ROM here, but i'll upload it somewhere ASAP
THX !
That would be absolutely GREAT !
i've been "forced" to use my Kaizer instead of my uni these last couple of days
but mine is from denmark, which was branded by Sonofon, but i would rather have some kind of "clean" unbranded version, by the way are there any difference between a branded and one that isn't ?
Found a Version of wm5 that is clean
so i think that i wont need the one from t-mobile, but we will se how it evolves
anyways how to support 4gb in wm5 ?

Welcome to the forum
I don´t think that the problem is caised by a 6 or 6.1 ROM, however try a wm5 and if not corrects try to read the Wiki
And don´t forget to vote!!
Good luck,
orb3000
thx for the welcome, the wm5 rom didn't help it still just shuts down randomly.
wth is wrong with my device argh, i've tried the universal wiki but didn't find anything about my problem.
i've already voted for the Universal

Could be a battery problem issue, test connected to wall charger and see if behaives the same, also remove your sd card and sim to test
Doing this we can try to identify the problem

So that´s it!
There are some problems with your new battery, perhaps not the original
Here on Universal forum there is a member called duke nukem, he claims he sells the original ones, try to buy another battery
Good luck,
And all Uni members!
let´s vote!!!
i see
but the new batteri is Original ? from qtek/Htc
