do you see it on?

Any idea anyone ?

right now

protected too !

i'm trying a password on it too, i don't know if it will work

somebody have to have uploaded them there

This looks like someone's cruel joke. :evil:

i don't know, the size of the file for the rom is 27megs and the file version of the file is the right one for the smartphone that has been confirmed by other users. my program to crack the password for the zip file can take up to two days. i wish there was a quicker way around this.

now just have to figure out how to load it

i got as far as loading the mtty program but i get an error when i try to load the rom
Cmd>l c:\myalias.bin
clean up the image temp buffer at 0x8C080000 Length 0x01B00000
MTTYDownloadImageNot allow operation!
Error : DownloadImage return error (code = 0xFFFFFFFF)
i get it with a audiovox 5600,i wonder if it's cause i don't have the c500

would make sence when no 2 HTC pocketpc can share rom then that no 2 htc smartphone can share rom would make sence

figured it out, your bootloader needs to be upgraded to say Typhoon IU. mine didn't follow the second post from here to learn how to do it.

not goood!!!

does anyone know how to downgrade? help!!!!!

haven't figured out yet how to downgrade.
the 0109 bootloader does not work with the normal upgrade utility.
I am working on extending my typhoonnbfdecode.pl script to also generate sd card images.

can anyone cofirm this specific download works on a uk c500? And has anyone tried tomtom on it? Still a bit nervous of trashing my phone!
Thanks

if you read the 3 posts before your mainly the first i cant blame you for being spooked

it works on the typhoon type devices ( with the long horizontal navigator button ), not on the feeler ( with the small round joystick), or sonata ( with music player buttons )
on the non-typhoon devices, the joystick button behaves strangely, you cannot move left/right.

System problem after installing igo8

Please anyone help!!!
i have installed my original ROM for diamond many times and after installing it I install all my favorite programs.
1st to install (DIAMOND HOLOGRAM) & (POCKET PICTURE 2) “ as the next problem happens with them “ . and to be sure that they work well then to install all the rest programs.
After installing all my programs I found (diamond hologram & Pocket Picture) to stop working and gives these errors :
For the hologram : (An error has happen but could not be displayed as an optional resource assembly could not be found )
For the Pocket Picture : ( an error message with two options – quit and more details ) … I can’t remember the details for now.
Anyway, after many trials to find the source of this error I found that these programs stop working after installing IGO 8.0… not only that but after installing it and got the gps receiver connected !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ….. yes that is what I found.
Now I need to install all my favorite programs and also to have IGO 8 on my Diamond.
By the way, I have tried to install all the .net versions !!!!
Anyone know what is the problem and it’s solution ????????????????????

!!!!!!!!
no one can help ?!!!

I think you have the same problem as me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3469865&postcount=546 no answer yet

more tests
Thanks for your reply
Just wondering are we only 2 in the diamond world having this problem with igo8 !!!!!!!!!!!
I have searched a lot online trying to find anyone have this prob. 2 but failed
By the way let us help each other to find a solution for this.
Yesterday I have tried the same steps:
1- Installing my ROM
2- installing the hologram and pocket picture2, then to be sure they are working.
3- Installing igo8 and before got my gps receiver connected exit the igo and try the hologram. An I found it still working.
4- Starting igo again and got my gps receiver connected. Then to exit it.
5- Trying the hologram again to find it stop working !!!!!!!!!
After the previous steps , I continued with the next steps :
1- Removed the igo8.
2- Trying the hologram and it is still not able to start.
3- Reinstalling the igo8.
4- Starting the igo without having the gps receiver connected. And then to exit the igo.
5- Trying the hologram again (( STRANGE…. IT IS WORKING NOW !!!!!! ))
6- Starting igo again and having the gps receiver connected. Then to exit the igo
7- Testing the hologram again. Sadly to find it stop working again.
From these trials and yours ( sof treset twice or more ) … I think the the gps connecting proccess of the igo8 makes a modification some how in a necessary files required to start the hologram, pocket picture, citytime …. Etc.
Now what is this file shared and required to run all of these programs. And what is the relation between this file and having the gps connected.
Note: the 1st time to have the gps connected it takes too long time. After that it is just one second to get it connected. That means there are some data has been written into the system which makes it takes a long time at the 1st of the program after installing.
Note: at the step no 5 ( underline step above ) the hologram and the pocket picture gave a message indicating that this is the 1st use of this program after installing it, where I have tested it b4 installing the igo and have them to stop working after installing it. This means that the shared file between the Igo and hologram is being rested somehow after the step no 4.
That is all I have tested 4 now….
Any new ideas !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

temp. way to slove the problem
my temp. solution for this poblem for now is to make the system.ini file under the folder "save" on the igo8 folder a read only file before got my gps connected for the 1st time. so by this way no modifications about gps settings will be saved. and as u exit the program of igo u will lose all the new settings u made " also the gps data " .... all you have to do now to make your program working is to open the igo8 again and close it without having your gps connected. that way u will have your programs working without a need to soft reset twice. !!
that is my temp solution for now, any other solution is welcome.

i had igo8 working fine on my touch diamond but i much prefered tomtom, when i uninstalled igo8 my system became really unstable. freezing all the time etc, so i tried to figure out what it was. when you install igo8 it puts loads of files onto your phone/internal storage wherever you installed it. and it doesnt work properly until you remove every single one of them

Problem with iGO on Touch 2 factory ROM

Look guys..My eyes have popped out trying to find a reasonable solution for this problem.. :\
I have a Touch 2 Mega 6.5 Windows mobile ,its just brand new!Haven't flashed it or anything.My colleague,who also uses a HTC (its not a Touch 2) not sure which one,gave me a copy of his iGO.I have installed it successfully.
I tried to start iGO but it just crashed after the first loading screen when API INIT or something like that appears in the corner.
Next time I started iGO it went the good old "previous instance of iGo.. bla bla"
I did a soft reset of Mega.
When I turned it on again I have tried replacing the sys.txt file with the one provided in some thread of this forum ( sys.txt for Touch 2) and it still didn't work.
Then I tried adding this to that sys file:
[device]
sdcard_dsk_num=7
it was like: starting screen>INIT API>LANGUAGES and it showed me an error saying
Fatal error occurred in main thread.
Address: 0x002dc5fc
Exception: 0x80000002
I've tried modifying the goddamn sys.txt file (curse it!) a thousand times with various stuff but the "fatal error" is as far as IGOt . Any help?

iGO
Delete everything and try with this *cab
iGO 8.3.4

"The file link that you requested is not valid." :\

iGO
Try now or copy and paste this in your browser.
PHP:
igo8down.4shared.com
I have also Sygic,Garmin,Primo,Amigo,Becker *cab files , but they all are in bulgarian language if you want it i will upload them somewhere.

igo8down.4shared.com ??
Never mind. I downloaded Garmin. It kinda rules! A good and reliable software.

What you can not understand , just copy this igo8down.4shared.com in your browser and hit ENTER.
For me the best GPS software for MEGA is Sygic.
Have a nice day!!!

all 3 Navi works fine.....
I find, Garmin is not so great. It works good but looks like a little bit "old school",
Sygic works well, it's quick an reliable and
my favorit is iGo 8, that looks like very awesome and works well on my Mega.

[Q] booting an rom present in storage card

guys i have playing around the registries and i saw that i can boot a rom present at the location mentioned .but the problem is that it cant boot an .nbh format file..Its booting files present in it can any body help me extracting all the files in an rom ....if this worked it will profit all the win32 users alot who are faceing flashing problem this is simplest method i found ....plz after getting solutions n after making sure ill let u know guys how it done i dont want nebody taking this riskk....sooo plz

what reg keys are you talking about here??

hiii ..the registries were like h_key/localmachine/init/bootvars/masterkeyfiledictorie it was /windows by default..i used my extrom that is /storagecard/windows/ well its booting the folder but due 2 lack of some file getting switched .off....kkk..lets see im not gonna give up ...ORTHER PLEASE DONNOT TRY THIS ITS VERY RISKY UR CELL MIGHT GO DEAD SO PLEASE..well hopes so this work still waiting of our members to a conclusion....

i'm just guessing here coz i don't have that much of in-depth know-how about it but...err...even if your system theoretically worked, wouldn't that reg key only be present and accessible when there is a proper booting Windows based OS on the device first...
as far as i am aware of (and that awareness is very limited in scope at this point in time) Windows is the only OS using the sorta reg keys we use (do correct me if i'm wrong)
and assuming that even if we do get it to boot from an external location, for instance a mem card, wouldn't that still mean that we would require a Windows base on the device memory first...
isn't that kinda redundant??
and suppose we keep an absolutely clean ROM on the device and have a loaded ROM in an external location and then boot off of it...our GENE's processor and RAM are still not powerful enough to deal with the added load on it...
now don't get me wrong...i'm not trying to put you down...i would even help in any way if possible but i just don't what it is you're trying to do because i fail to see how this would alleviate the problem of flashing in any manner...
may i also suggest you post you idea up in the WinMo Development thread so that you can catch the attention of other advanced users who could help you out or shed some light on the use of the reg key...

u haven't put me down ..wat u said was n is absoulately correct .thankin u from bottom of the heart for giving such an precious knowledge 2 us.n pls help me with sum more ideas in future regarding this thread pls pls ........thankinn u n hve a greatday....;-)

just because you hit a stumbling block here doesn't mean you have to pass up on it...
try posting stuff that you find out that hasn't been tried/used well before on the WinMo Q & A or Dev thread...you never know what sorta breakthrough you might make...people here are incredibly helpful but the only way they (we?) can help you is if you are gonna share information that you have...

well booting is possible through Storrage card -. but the problem is that getting the rom files does any 1 has and idea how we get all the files From nbh file any body having 1dea of getting Please p:s^here ..well sum guys say tht omap 850 can't offerd such an data load ...well tht fake I don't believe thz it nothing 2 do with processor it regestry ..me n friend found tht default setting for data transfer with microsd is 64 byte and and sdHC is 256 byte for booting if u microsd whn u use microsd change it 2 128 byte not more tht cool speed has omap 850 can handle 32gb memory card 2gb is nothing in front of it ...well got 50% sucees for thz post.i put all start menu programme in storage card guys u not belive tht i've got ram space used is only 34% ill post an image of it .....tryin now to put all the programmes let see let c for rest 50% plz feel free to post ur suggestion it all for u guys n e1 im not gonna give up so early ....the reason y it takin time is tht pc's motherboard has crashed n its given for repairing.............plz keep post I'll prefer reply
POSTING THREAD UNCESSARLY MAY PROVE DANGEROUS BECAUSE WE GUYS FLOOD THE SERVERS N THE ADMINISTRATION MAY GET UPSET SO PREFER REPLIES INSPITE OF REPLING WITH NEW THREAD ....BECAUSE I'VE SEEN MANY GUYS DOING THIS.....have a nice day

guys guys my solution is working ...u wanna know does ur memory card has the folder WINDOWS on the root..
.well if not don't worry ..
1-if u are having .net framework 3.5 cab install it on the storage card ..after tht u will windows folder on ur sd root "ROOT-the folders which r welcomed or opened when u open or execute storage card through explorer..
NoW things tht u need to boot rom on storage card r
1- resco explorer latest version install it ..n if u r havin it check whiether it not an expired version ...
2- run the resco explorer ..one good thing is tht resco has an regedit s\w in it which we will require after wards ..
3-configure resco explorer ..n then in menu\option\ general\ browser uncheck all options n press ok button...
4-go on windows folder not the one on storage card outside it ...the windows folder where all the rom files are present ...and select all files on in the windows folder..
5- after tht a long tab on it thn select property..uncheck all except ROM option cause it not possilble to do so ...after tht press ok...
6-now start copying file from windows to \storage card\windows ....it take a very long time and do make sure tht u have 120 mb on storage card ...
7- while copying u will hve to keep pressing "yes" button all the time whenever required ...because copying denied by sum file but thts okay ...n don't lose u patient while doing so ...action stopped due to sum reson u may continue by same proccedure but "skip all "file already copied.....after finishing ....go to resco registry...
8-in resco registry open HkEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init\BootVars and modify the string value of MasterKeyFileDir from
\windows to \storage card\windows
pls don't mistake it with backslash"/" it ALWAYS "\" in registry ...now what
9-its finished n u all done but plz check all file copied I know sum file couldnot be copied but don't worry thoose file are .dll files mainly containing registry and work according with HKEY's ...
now do a softreset let it boot n after booting let it settle down for few minutes for the 1st 15min it goes slow but after ward goesssss very smoth....
note:-THIS CONDITION GOES TRUE IF U R HAVING GENE THAT IS HTC P3400 OR HTC P3400i BECAUSE ITS TESTED WITH GENE OTHER PLEASE DON'T NOT TRY IF U TRY AND CAUSE ANY DAMAGE TO UR OS OR ANY OTHER RELATED THING ...I AND XDA ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT"
10- BEFORE I EXIT ONE MORE THING THIS ARE TEMPORARY CHANGES WHICH MAY BE CHANGED AFTER U HARD RESET UR MOBILE N U CAN FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION IF U HAD N HARD RESET UN WILLINGLY.......
have a nice day n sry abt my english ....pls give a feed back .....

regarding your first post ->
before i begin i'd like to make to assumption, one for me and one on your part...
assumption 1: your project aims at getting a ROM to boot up from the memory card instead of the very limited phone memory
assumption 2: you believe booting off the memcard will improve on the performance and speed
now let me get to the point-
if you dump a stock ROM or even a cooked ROM what you will get is a huge number of files and modules...alongwith a .rgu and .reg files...tons of them...
now simply copying them over to the mem card won't make it work...
the .reg and .rgu files which contain all the registry entries for the software need to be added into the system registry (which is ironically located in the phone memory) for the program to function as most of them maintain settings and records and certificates on the registry and access and refer to them while running
now this work or adding the registry entries is usually done by the kitchen for us cooks...
it can be done by hand as well but the sheer amount of time and patience required for it to be done this way is way to overwhelming....
and it can only be entered by hand if there already is an operating system functioning on the device
so for now...i'm leaving that out as an option...because basically no reg entries mean no OS
our gene are able to read mem card higher than 4 Gb because the SDHC drivers required for this to be possible are cooked in with our devices...
SDHC cards do not work with stock 5.0 and 6.0 WM ROMs because they can't recognize/handle them...
now about your second post ->
what you've done is copied your system files onto your mem card and made your system boot into it...
the only way to know if it is genuinely booting up with the file in mem card and NOT with the ones in the phone memory \Windows folder is by deleting the files from phone memory...
and even then, you'll still be accessing the registry from phone memory to get the files from the mem card to function probably
now a request to you...
i want to know what exactly it is that you are trying to do...
you mentioned you wanted to get a ROM working this way to ease the burden of flashing...but this wouldn't help at all as it would still require a running OS on the phone and also need corresponding reg entries for a different ROM loaded on the mem card if you were to boot into one from there...
its just that i'm losing point to what you are aiming to do...
if i understood it better i could even help a bit myself...i've been cooking ROMs for a fairly long time so i could even provide ROMs dumps if needed...
so if you could, just write down a few lines about what you want to achieve via this...

Brother wat u said is correct...e1 im tryin to reduce the flashing accident without excepting any reward ...I've been a victim of flashing.losing my gene dead so.
frist I was scared after completeing the procedure tht my mobile might get stuck on bootloader mode but fortunately it started ...after looking at the registry sawed tht while booting it take help of the files present in documents n setting folder rest everything from windows which now is \storage card\ windows getting RAM free near 50% ...but the problem is tht flash a rom files go in windows folder im looking to change tht scenerio over here ....belive me the speed is improved a bit while multi-taskIng ..so I can say i ve 5% success...pls post sum ideas or question u may get....'''IDEA GIVES BRITH TO INVENTIONS''' tc

have a look at the ExtenDir project...you'll find it in a quick search
