hello every one in the world i am new to advantage x7501 just got it yesterday ok my question is. Is there any other way to access the micro drive besides using activesync trying to drag and drope larg file oh my god i dont even think the slider actually moved so is there a way too make it a storage drive? what i was think way i have a 2 gig mini put file on there then move too micro drive and yes i want to flash black rom but im scared i just brough from tigerdirect for nearly $900USD and dont want a bricked phone any help would be appreciated
just use the olipro athena unlocker, and flash away.
if you experience a lag during moving files to the microdrive, maybe activesync is syncing at the sime time? activesync is a majorly powerthirsty app.
yeah but try moving a 2 gig file via activesknc and you ll see what i mean that darn thing is really slow it would take a really long time move file at the size im trying ta store the movies i converted onto the micro drive and trust me i have a sick @$$ rig
oh yeah and one more thing where i just seen something on here that said hard spl unlocker which i just downloaded a file AthenaWrapper.zip is this what i need ta unlock in order to flash black rom? be cuz i was reading something about 3 steps i only see one file in the unziped folder

Install wm5torage version 1.73 into your device, run it to make it a usb 2.0 disk to your pc, then you'll be able to move your large files in pc to your microdrive or storage card.
the olipro athena unlocker will take you trough the three steps
moved the movies onto my sd-card with a 2.0 usb card reader. was rather quick.
You might want to use version 1.73 even if the cooked ROM already has the wm5torage, because 1.73 is the only stable version. I've tried the newer version with no success myself.
ok thank every one for your help just have one last question and then im off to flashing ok like i said i just download the file AthenaWrapper and its small like almost around 1mb. now there is one file in side the folder when i unziped it. ok is this file the first thing i run? let it finish and then flash rom? and btw i have a pre-paid t-mobile sim card but im thinking of getting at&t be cuz of 3g now will this work after i unlock and flask new rom? or do i have to flash the radio to i was doing alot of reading and heard some one bring this up just want to be sure of what steps i need to do THANKS AGIAN oh and how do you make the pre-paid t-mobile go online they told me they only support side kicks with web service this sux because this one of the reason i brought the phone was for internet

Hi there, thanx again and again for your eccellent work!
I got into a heavy rain the other day and when I picked my toy from the waterproof compartement of my backback it was completely soaked! :shock:
And after a lot of fancy flashing and ringing, that I could only stop by hard resetting it, it went dead altogether.
Now it dried up again I'm kind of surprised to find it actually works again only it obviously lost all it's memory. And after honestly following every single thread and reading every post, I give up and finally post a question.
Used to be Rom 3.14 and Radio Stack 3.16.xx (I don't remember) all german O2. Bootloader 5.15.
My problem is, that whenever I try to get a rom image (the newest version of the german Programm A - which is an .nbf file after extracting)
onto my SD card (Scandisk 256 MB), it will stop immediately after I hit the OK Button in the XDArite App, outputting 'Successfully copied image of 65538 blocks'. Obviously it didn't because I figure it would need quite some minutes to copy 30 MB of data onto the SD card. And the bootloader doesn't recognise anything on the card.
In the beginning I could read the card under XP and could save all my data, but now after trying XDArit a couple of times I can't read the card anymore under XP (it still shows up as a removable Harddisk in the explorer but Windows can't even format the card anymore). :?
Does anybody have any suggestions on that matter, I would very much appreciate that!!
Have you recently downloaded the new version of XDArit? If so: be advised that there's now two other people that seem to be having problems they did not have on the first version. So you could try the old version, still around at http://xda-developers.com/XDArit/old
You may to also read the page for the warning on the old version.
(We created /old/ subdirs for all our software, by the way)
XDArit needs a rehaul, and we know it. We currently don't have much time, and this would be a good project for a coding volunteer. We have plenty of good ideas as to what should be in there.
Same problem, It doesn't actualy write to the card ?
Same problem... this is how I fixed it... the old version may work better for you (but I've never used it). http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1451
Thanks for your reply, Ive requested assistance from the author of the post you suggest, but i`ll ask you the same question. Any chance of the recompiled file so that I could try it.
Many thanks in advance BORIS.
So, ive read post after post on performing this task and it is still beyond my capabilities. My wallaby is running ppc2002, rom version is 3.20.06, radio version 4.21.01 protocol version 32s54. It's running bootloader 6.22, i havent got active sync, xdatools wont run due to missing dll's or some such thing. Have a 1gig sd and a 512mb mmc,,,,
How can i upgrade with this setup? visited rom kitchen (awesome site) and cooked up a rom, extracted NK.nbf,
Need help! Surely i can upgrade with this equipment,

Right, well got active sync which meens the dll's i needed are in system 32 or whatever. But,,, Does bootloader 6.22 cause problems?? Thanks for all the help,, sure this fone is a bit old but who cares. Massive screen, runs office, windows media, touch screen, great fone
Any suggestions? I cant be the only one without a data cable or cradle. At the end of the day i want the fone to run best as possible. I am thinking there is alot more compatable software for wm2003 then ppc2002? @ the moment im running mame and pacman,,,,,,,, Speaking of software, is the media player in 2002 meant to be slow? As far as video go's ive given up there.
what is your problem?
Problem is i dont seem to be able to downgrade from bootloader 6.22 to 5.15 so i can update the rom to 2003. doing ll this without a data cable or cradle.
Bootloader should not cause any problems.
Missing Dll´s for XDATools came as you have ssen correctly form ActiveSync. So you need to install this programm on your PC to use XDATools. Afterwards you will be able to wirte the ROM on your SD-Card and then flash the new ROM on your device.
So if you don´t have any cradle or cable, and don´t sync with ActiveSync, how did you manage your conacts,install software, exchange files, ....?

I see the confusion
I have card reader's on the front panel of my pc. So i am using xardit to transfer the bootloader images onto either an sd or an MMC card. So i transfer the patch with the NB2 extension on to the card. Cold reboot xda and it gets to the normal screen telling me i need the keycard.
I can use either xdarit or isoimagetool to transfer the .NB1 file on to an SD.
I have no data cable, so these are the only methods i can use. Just pc with multi card card, sd car, mmc card.
LumpiStefan, the rom kitchen is a damn fine peice of work!
when i had a wallaby i only ever flashed it using a sdcard reader
was pretty easy used ositool put the nbf / nb1 on the sdcard
after which the cardreader could no longer read the sdcard(that mean it's successfully planted)
then i put in the sdcard and entered the bootloader and it autostart upgrading
and when it's don i hardreset and thats it
Hi And thanks
I have tried this with a 1g toshiba sd and a 512 sandisk mmc, neither seem to auto start an update. I have browsed the web a bit and have found different theories on bootloader being a problem. My card reader is a panel on the front of my pc, or using my ngage. tried formatting fat16 or fat32. Im sure it's currently ppc2002 as this is the first screen after the o2 water screen
I think your problems come from your card reader. Many people have reported, that the internal card reader causes problems in writing the ROMs in correct way on the cards. I would s uggest to use an external card reader/writer.....
Stefan
and those are only 10£$€'ish
Thanks guys for your help, all up and running now. I appreciate the advise. Rudegar, my problem was getting the wrong info from elsewhere, the solution was the card reader, Cost me $9.00 au to buy one. I thank you both
Hi guys,
My USB port will charge, but it doesn't seem to want to connect to a computer regardless of the cable or the OS/machine. The device manager won't even flinch. Not a huge deal, I sync to exchange over the air and I can bluetooth if necessary... but, I really want to upgrade my rom to the new tmobile 4.26 that came out recently. Has anyone had luck with the SD card flash? I formatted the card fat32 and put on the file as HERAIMG.nbh, but no luck, the bootloader just sits there whether I have the card in, or put it in in that screen. I see a quick "searching for SD card" before the bootloader goes, but nothing ever takes. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ray
I had to rename the img to "heraimg.nbh" lower case for some reason. I am using a 1gb card formatted Fat32.
Also, your phone has to be HardSPL'ed. It SHOULD be all upper case, nailtoe's phone would be the exception. How big is your SD card?
It's 1GB. Am I out of luck without USB, or is there a non-usb hardspl technique? Now that I just asked that I'm going to search the forum to look, but ... meh. I think I'm gonna have to call t-mobile and get a replacement.
I need HardSPL even though I'm trying to go to a t-mobile rom?
if you're trying to flash back to the stock tmobile rom and you've extraced the .nbh from the RUU, you shouldnt need HardSPL to flash if you're not already HardSPL'd

I had no idea I was the exception. Not trying to counter your statement I know you are experienced enough to know what you are saying. But I tried and tried for days with capped and it refused to boot it. Ever since then I go lower case haven't tried it with caps since. Might have to try it proper next time I flash. Interesting how sometimes things do what they do though.
Hi all just flashed my X1 with the generic se rom and removed the vodafone rom, what a difference a whole new phone , its faster more responsive opera displays pages faster, glad I risked it.

is this a full debrand? any extra programmes and what benefits?
yep full debrand, one tip though remove your sd card before doing hard spl, no more vodafone stuff, runs a lot smoother and it downloads all the needed vodafone internet settings on reboot opera is like night and day now doing what it should and not restricted - wifi is also a lot better + you can now get more uptodate roms direct useing se update. (not tried this yet). All good

i dont hve a card reader how will i format m memory card?
dont need a card reader most likely your card is already fat32, as for copying the file rom to the card just do it as you would normaly transfer something to the phone. If you are going to try it remeber it is risky and could brick your phone if done wrong.

im currently formatting mem card, taking a long time
the NBHUTIL folder which is also extracted do we use that?
i dont see it mentioned.
no not needed
im at the 2nd stage and there a white screen saying loading...
is this normal?
is your sd card in the phone, if it is remove it then run hard spl without the card inserted and it will work, then just follow the guide rename the rom place onto your sd card remove battery, put battery back in hold volume down key and press hold power button at same time until you get the 4 colour screen and follow the instructions displayed on your phone.
Hey there guys once again. Ive scrapped my other threads about trying to upgrade to Wp7 NoDO. And now im running into a HUGE problem.
On the downgrade from HSPL to SPL and Stock ROM. I came across the fact my insurance replacement is a GERMAN phone. All via the help desk of HTC.com's Phone support. Which is funny since when i get the phone replaced via my insurance it was on 3.14 or so , WWE not GER.
So the short story is , Ive gone back to stock , And HAD to use a GER Rom , Which in all honesty is absolutely daft. I cant read it? I cant do anything with it :s
Also the USB part of the Phone ONLY accepts Charge , No Data. So its proving difficult to do anything about. So heres my question to you smart guys @ XDA D.
1) Changing the ROM to a WWE Version without the use of USB Data : Is it possible?
2)Getting it to a Later ROM Or at least a working 'English' ROM so i can use it until december? Or even so i can send it to Tmobile for a fix.
3)Do i just 'lose' the phone on purpose and claim on the insurance 'yet again' and bin this absolute PIECE.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591314 , that shows it CAN be done , but requires the use of the Data portion lol!

Yes but doesnt that require you being able to use your USB Data part of the USB port? I unfortunately cant.

not if you have either a pci card reader, (many are internally mounted to usb headers on your motherboard, , these wont work, they return the ID for the usb header, not the attached card) or best of all, any other winmo phone with an sd card slot, , you only need it for 5 mins, so if you have a friend with ANY winmo phone, or, many laptops (but by no means all) have a pci mounted card reader, then you're good to go at making a goldcard.

Ive obviously got a card reader. But all the laptops i have here with Card readers are dead in the water atm ( PC repairman by trade ) I was going to attempt this http://www.nazriawang.com/2010/04/how-to-create-goldcard-with-ubuntu.html , Just unsure on how well it will work. The other unfortunate problem. Ive converted ALL my friends to either HTC's with Android or WP7.
Any nice link on creating a gold card? Other than the one i searched and posted in my original post?

That link is for android phones,just cos the hd2 runs android, it is still a windows phone.(same goes for the webpage many people keep mentioning that offers free goldcards,,, they're for Droid and wp7,,,)
Once you figure out how to get the serial, pm it me with an email address and I'll generate the image for you.
http://samsamuel.co.uk/news.php?id=8
Will show you how to write the image, but you are stuck till you get the serial. Any friend good enough to let you backup their android rom and flash back to winmo temporarily? That's ten thousand times easier than any other way of getting the serial.
