I am running the newest version of open touch and i am trying to download and use , http://www.getjar.com/products/13076/SuperBluetoothHack , this bluetooth hacking program because it looks like it could be some fun but i dont know how to use the .jad and .jar download files to install them on my phone after they are downloaded, and i tried going to the quick downoad site on my phone to download the files but that doesnt work either. If anyone could help me, with a short step by step guide of what to do, i would greatly appreciate it.
I have read all of the Wiki's and quite a few other postings and will try my first flash when i get home. Does anyone have any advice for me before i try anything? I just got the Wing and it is my 1st PDA and I am very excited to start customizing it but i dont want to trash or as i've heard "brick" the thing so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
flashing a new ROM is actually wwwwaaay easier then the threads teaching you make it seems.
advice is... flash to a custom ROM.
decide what you want your phone to be able to do. compare the different ROMs before you flash. collect and organize cabs etc for the programs you will want to install after flashing. then go for it!!
Thanks for the response. How do io even start to flash do i need special sodtware on my PC. and what is SPL? i read i need 4.0 or higher or i will brick my phone. when i say i am a newb i mean complete newb. i dont even know where to start to install the files or anything.
to check your SPL, perform a soft reset while pressing the camera button. You should see a three colored screen with the words IPL and SPL and whatever. If SPL is over 4, then you can use USPL (temporary unlock) or HardSPL (permanent unlock). Note that in this case unlock means the removal of a block that forbids the flashing of custom roms. This is called a CID unlock.
SPL = Secondary Program Loader
similar to the BIOS in a pc..tells the device to load windows, etc
Hard-SPL = is a "permanent" change/upgrade..in this our case it changes your SPL to "yang4.7" or something like that
Herald-USPL = temporary upgrade to HTC Herald SPL 5+
thanks MV3 for the deffinitions and explanation it really helped alot. where can i find some .cab files at.
not like i wanted.
well things did not go like i wanted because i couldn't even backup my damn contacts because the stupid activesync wont back them up. getting tired so i will try this again tomorrow.
download and install HTC Backup
or PIM Backup..cuz they are freeware hehe
connect to your usb and transfer/install on your device. then you can run the program and backup or restore your contacts, messages, notes, calendar, etc.
if you have a data / internet package..you should be able to download through your phone....if that's not working.. you can download it to your computer..then email it to yourself... but really, via usb is much faster/easier.
cool can i active sync the files i need with this software to or no. and how exactly do i active sync a .cab or flash or anything for that matter.
well... synchronizing with active sync kinda sucks... and is rather annoying
it just synchronizes windows outlook, outlook/ms contacts, and other ms stuff.
if the file is a pc installation/setup file.. you need to connect your phone via usb.. then run the file on your computer and it installs it to your phone... your phone will ask where you want to install it.
if it's a .cab file, transfer it to your phone... then search for where you put it and run the .cab file.
to transfer files between your pc and your phone... on your pc's activesync... click "Explore"... or just open my computer/windows explorer.. and open Mobile Device..or whatever your computer named it.
to flash.. the instructions are usually on that ROM's page..
ok i got it. so i dont necessarily need to install it to a specific folder, just somewhere i will remember.
correct

FYI: There is a way around this. When you execute the .exe file it does establish a .cab file in the folder on your PC for ActiveSync to use to install it on your Phone. So, what I have done in the past is go to the folder on my PC, find the .cab file and then transfer that .cab file to my SD Card and then install the .cab file on your phone. Search for where you put it on your Phone SD card and run the .cab file. It does work as I have done it many times. Then continue as stated below.
ok I will try it that way too thanks guys for all your advice. all I,ve done so far is a game and some themes.but I want to get my wing running faster so what should I install. and how can I run a app and still listen to wmedia at the same time?

i don't see the point in that... unless you want to save the .cab file to your storage card...but if that's your point, then "i see..."

To make it faster, you have to kill a lot of the junk that's in it from starting up, or you can use any third party ROM.
Hello fellow newbie..
Beleive me i feel u and all these questions ur asking, i was in the same boat and for the most part still am about certain things...i to wanted my device (wing) to run faster and EVERYONE advised me to flash a 3rd party rom (ttran biggy 3.0 is awesome) heres the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365607
not only is it fast and slick lookin but it gets rid of all that 'stuff' u dont need and frees up ALOT of memeory so u can still add stuff (cabs/programs) u want...he even provides instructions and 'how-tos' on the thread just follow exactly using USPL instructions when flashing...if u are in need of cabs go to the 'Herald' section or click here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=348) its the same device and concepts as the Wing, ull find everythin u need here

There are many people who cannot connect with ActiveSync. I had trouble with it for months. So, that is another way of installing an application without using ActiveSync. This is also used as you said, to save the Cab file on your SD card.
Thanks Ivan i have read your "how to flash" thead alot of your other postings bro so i know you have this thing down pack and appreciate the advice.
Thank you too timace any dod and dont's advice you have feel free to Pm me or post it. I just dont want to brick my phone.
yesterday i loaded some themes and a game and some of my ringtones that i had made from my old nextel and now i feel brave enough to flash the rom.
not sure if this is the right area to be asking this question but yea im having trouble installing games into my diamond, I download a file onto my computer then i extract it then theres many other files and i don't know what to do afterwards and which files i need or dont need, can someone tell me what im spouse to do? Thanks
where did you find the games ?
i know this is a newby question but how do you put these app or themes onto your HTC Diamond
you download the file on your computer, and sync your phone with your computer, than drag the file into your device internal storage

There are a couple of ways.
If the file is a .CAB file, it is the easiest the do.
Just download to your computer and sync to your phone like earlier explained and just install it on your phone (doubleclick or open)
if it is an .EXE file, it might be that you need to install it on you pc, while your phone is synched.
it will then automaticly install on your phone as well.
but most files here are cabs, so if you have internet on your phone, just download them immediatly to your internal storage and ryun them from there
easy as pie
ok so i downloaded it to my computer and then synced it to my phone but i how do i install it to make my screen appear that way. Thank you so much for all the help
Is it a cab file that you have downloaded? or another type of file?
i don't know its the Vista_Ultimate_Theme
i don't know if it will help but i just got my Diamond so I haven't figured everything out on it yet just wanted a new theme.
i just wanna change my theme cause the standard one is boring to me so please if anyone could help thank you so much.

What ROM are you using? You might have to update that for it to work.
Hi All,
I happened to develop VeerAnji (A HTML5 game) for windows 8 in december.
And in Feb my HDD crashed and all source code gone with the disk,
I need my game contents and files for reference for another game, but I dont have windows 8 now.
Could anyone please download the game and send me the app contents zipped plese.
I am not looking for any game downloads or playing or reviews, butmainly due to my HDD crash.
thanks in advance.
I havent downloaded it but this really does reiterate the point that you must backup important work.
Well that discussions happened long back with my friends and its irreversible, why simply talk over what is lost!
Can anybody help pls.
