If you are running a T-mob Ameo on WM5 (i.e. you haven't upgraded to WM6 yet), could you please upload copies of the T-Mobile ringtones / alarms from WM5 - that is the only thing I miss from the previous ROM and unfortunately I forgot to back them up before upgrading.
Thanks
Why would you want them?
They're fairly offensive to the ears don't you think.....
I've just realized what you said.....am I missing something? What have you upgraded to?

Again, thanks for the help. I don't want to hard reset, lose all my data (or risk it), then reflash and then reinstall all of my apps.
If someone could, pretty please, just take the two minutes to upload the files I would be very grateful.
I'm just about to do the upgrade, but want to backup the WM5 rom before I do owt - how to? If someone can point me in the right direction, I'll be happy to oblige...

It's too late for me as I got excited and flashed, however aren't the tones identical across ALL windows mobile devices as well as the Ameo?
Might be better to post it on general discussion for a faster result.

Not unless you did a nand backup.
yeah just boot to recovery and do a Nandroid restore of the back up you made. Assuming you did this like every ROM thread warns you to.
yes i did the nandroid backup but if i restore the backup will i still have to rom??
You can start by reading the forums and learn what you're doing before you do it.
Example

Hey I saw this thing that told me how to delete System32, and I did it, how do I make my computer turn on!

really man you should read up on this stuff, go to the DamageControl thread and read about it. do a search and see what other people have said about it. 99% of the roms YOU are going to be dealing with are the same exact thing with minor preference variations.
yeah but how am i suppose to learn about it when i dont know what "dealing with are the same exact thing with minor preference variations" even means. How does that help me??
xxxk15 said:

Because you have your Contacts set as Google and not phone, and you back up your apps with Titanium Backup.
Before you ask how to do either of those things, read the little book that came with your phone. It will tell you how to backup your contacts to Google.
Search the Hero forums for what Titanium backup is, and how to use it.
ok thanks!!

there are very few people who will hold your hand and walk you through these very easy to follow steps. READING about what is included in a rom, which i will tell you is ALWAYS on the first page of said rom's thread will tell you everything about that rom that you need or want to know. There are places to look up all the answers to your questions. here is a good place to start...

aaand...im out. before the tridant falls on my head, again.
Ok I'm a noob Hero owner so I'll attempt an answer.
When you turned on your phone for the very first time, after you got over the shock of how cool and awesome it was, I assume you either signed in with or created a google account.
Now after you flash a new ROM especially one that requires a factory wipe of all data, you will have to do that again. Your contacts and email and calendar will all resync to your phone courtesy of the fine folks at google.
As for the apps. Titanium backup seems to be the way to go no muss no fuss.
Holy crap. I've been on these forums for quite a while. I've had three different phones that I've used these exact forums as a resource for modding, rooting, or what have you with all three of them. I've never needed to post a single thing. I will use this opportunity to make my first post, and say:

Your phone has this already (out of the box) and yes it will wipe everything from your phone.
Thanks! this let me restore everything back to stock and put s-on back. I had to exchange the thunder due to the backlight bleeding through the black paint around the bottons.
My Tbolt has this same issue and I'd like to exchange. Did Verizon give you any hassle when exchanging it? I'm rooted and will need to flash back to stock as soon as I can DL this file...

Yes they did. Said it existed on all of the new TB's they've sold and would not exchange the phone for that reason. It's not really that bad but in the dark, it's annoying.
Grabbing with a downloader and then editing this post with a mediafire link. The only good site for uploads other than my server IMHO

it'll restore your phone to an out of the box state.
what for?
my phone is already at the original state...
or is it like if you brick it or jailbreak it or something?
If the rooting process gets messed up, you'll be glad you have this file.
So this removes Root ???? I am looking just to update my radio ?? Is there something for that ?

with 4.2 cwm puts the backups to the /0 partition of the sdcard... annoying.... you have to move it to your sdcard then move it on your phone from the sd to the sd/0 cwm folder.... i hope that makes sense

2.24.401.01 rom
Thought it might be helpful to post this here as well I know its not a nandroid backup but here is a link to a ROM that should install on all devices that is HTC dev unlocked
[ROM][6-7-13][4.2.2][2.24.401.1][Root][BusyBox][Odexed][DeOdexed]
Hopefully this is helpful for anyone struggling to find a ROM version that is currently supported by rumrunner.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but...
As far as I know, rumrunner needs the right firmware installed, so this won't help anyone unless they already have a firmware installed that is supported by rumrunner.
Eg my firmware is 2.24.61.1 (CID ORANGE001)
So rumrunner wont work.
Ive been trying to find an RUU for x.x.61.x to send to them so they can add support but have had no luck.
So I decided to run a quick backup of the phone system files with TWRP and I noticed that it has a system_image.emmc.win file that are 6GB in size. My question is this. Is this a complete image of the phone's base setup so when things go south we can use this file to go back to? Or is it something else??

To the best of my knownledge, you don't want or need that system.img in your backups. I know on my nexus 6p you don't use it. big waste of space. Perhaps something a dev needs???

I would think that big image file would be the image used for a factory reset with all the program, system file and such so they can just reset it quick and easy. And if that is the case, wouldn't that be what is needed by the devs?

I'm pretty surprised that such an important file isn't already widely available. I expected easy unlocking/rooting and custom ROMs at this point. Has this phone not been available for a while now in the US? What's holding everything back?
Anyway, if you could somehow make that file available again I'm sure I wouldn't be the only grateful one.

Any other place you can upload it to? It might be the only way for the bootloader unlocked group to get future updates (if it was captured without b20_boot).
