Hi all
I just bought WolframAlpha from the market... and I just want to know, what will happen when I wipe my phone to install a new ROM ?
Can I then just redownload the app, or do I need to pay for it again even though I already did so?
//B4Me
it comes up as purchased on the market downloads screen, just download it again, simples
... as long as you use the same email address for the master account.
Okay, thats nice to know
New rom.. here we gooooooo !!

download pimbackup from this site. you can backup your contacts, email & sms with it to put back on once you have flashed.
Suggest you dont backup system data as you cannot restore this safely on a newer os.
look at the good guide on upgrade section, i recomend lazy tools way.
Ur device is not network locked? so u should be ok.
If you ensure u have an original wm5 rom you can always flash this as a backup if flashing to wm6 or 6.1 goes wrong
good luck and welcome to flashing.........
Hi Timmy,
I backup cotacts sms and emails with pimbackup.But I have doubt if WM6,1 wont recognize this backup.
My ppc all unlock, CID etc.
Could the rom updating corrupt imei area?
And the last famous question which rom should I install??

When you upgrade to cooked 6.1 it will more than likely have pimbackup on it, if not install it. You will have no problems restoring ur contacts, email etc (system data & settings is the only problem so dont use it). I have used this method and there was no problem.
Im afraid i cant answer your imei querie, your best asking a mod (l3v3y is very knowledgable )
As for active sync password, do you mean the unlock code to get access to your device when its turned on? Ive not seen active sync with a password before. Im sure a hard resest would get rid of this password, but if your going to flash a rom, dont worry about it, it wont be there after your flash.
Ha Ha.... best rom? famous question..... There are many good roms out there. It is purely personal choice. Do you want a clean one (max speed and free storage) which you can then add the applications you want, or do you want a full one (maybe a little slower but not much) which comes with a lot of apps cooked in. Disadvantage of full rom ? - apps are always being updated and if apps are cooked in you cannot unistall them to then update them. So i guess you have to read up on the roms and decided.
Look for roms from l3v3y, varanusvincent, gullum, dioxda 2, all great chefs and have released many good roms.
Try a few and test them, only one way to find out. U'll find u cant stop flashing and testing when you start.
Read the good guide on upgrading section (the stickys). THis one is good too : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377904.
I assume you are upgrading from wm5 original rom, so spend a few hours reading, belief me its worth it
Have fun!
ps let me know how you get on with imei thing, i want to know too, you can never know too much!!!
Thank you very much Timmymarsh,
I updated the rom to Prophet Diamond and I ll try different roms as you said.
restore my data to new rom.

No problem
Was the imei thing a problem in the end?
No , imei is ok too.
Do all the programs for wm5 compatible with wm6.1 ?

Mostly in my experience. You may get a message that "this program was designed for a previous version and may not display properly) but generally they work fine, you may just not have a full screen or some text isnt shown.
Afraid thats a "try and see" experiment too my friend
Hi all,
Just got my unlocked HTC Magic yesterday. Purchased in Malaysia.
However, there is no access to android market (not installed on phone).
The gmail contact sync, google calander sync is also not there. anyone can help me with this?
You could always go here for your apps. Sorry can't help with the Google stuff.
Clinton
You could always try to follow one of the guides, and do a genaric reflash on the rom? Is yours a google, or htc? Easiest way to find out is to check the battery cover, if it says google or htc on it. From there, if what Clinton wrote doesn't work out, just find a guide in the development subforum, and go from there.
mine is the HTC branded one. the thing is, i am not really sure on how to proceed with reflashing the ROMs. tried reading the quides but there are some things i don't understand.
Well if you want to flash a rom you'll need to figure out which SPL your phone uses, see if it's flashable. Here's a list of the SPLs for the Magic. And Here's the guide I would fallow to do the ROM Flash and backup.
Clinton
thanks..reading up and i am starting to understand a little. will try it out later. downloading the files now (SDK,recovery,ROM)

The daldroid rom from the links below works fine for the malaysia version of magic.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523680

Yes, I'm. I afraid I can offer very limited help as I don't own a magic, just helping my wife to get her full access to all google services.
I guess as long as adb and fastboot works well on your laptop, thing should be pretty straightforward. As a precaution, don't try rom that 've no positive feedback from other forum user or if you are not sure whether it is for your model ( there are 2 version of magic - pvt32a and pvt32b, the malaysia version is pvt32a ). Finally, flashing radio and spl could be dangerous, definitely not for beginner.
Regards,
Low

Fews more things to add:
* the daldroid rom include both google services and microsoft exchange client. note that some of the rom out there doesn't include the htc exchange client.
* you will have to manually enter apn ( for 3g access ) after you flash your phone so do note your current apn setting down.
* backup your current rom using nandroid before flash
* a tricky thing here is the sdcard doesn't immediately comes online when you fastboot your phone, sometime u have to wait for a minute.
* the first boot after flash is very slow, be patient ( read somewhere that can use adb logcat to monitor the progress, not sure but u can try ).
i see. that is probably why i can't get the backup to work. thanks. really helpful there.
I see, thanks for the info. i take the daldroid ROM then. having both google and exchange is good for future use. Do i need to reflash the the radio and spl if i take the daldroid ROM?
Success. managed to load dildroid ROM. all working so far
Thanks to aniteshj for suggesting the reflash. and ClintonH and Hengsin for the useful useful links.
and props to the tireless people behind the guides, the ROM, the fastboots. all of you rock.
Hi all,
i tried to install the new FB 1.2 several times.
I have tried to uninstall the old facebook v1.007 first and to install the newer v1.2 . But every time after the installing the new version...the version info states still v.1.007.
I also tried to install the new version over the old version.
Same problem...it remains always version 1.007.
(Oh...I also deleted all facebook relevant reg keys)
I have read several pages here but i didn't find an answer yet.
Could someone please help me?
Thanks in advance
BTW: I'm using the Touch HD
Is the old facebook included in a rom you have flashed?
hi,
I do not use another rom as the delivered one.
Rom is still the original one!
As far as I know Facebook is not contained in the delivered package.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
v1.0.0.17
I know it sounds daft but when you install the new Microsoft Facebook v1.2, for some unknown reason, when you look in the "about" section, the version is displayed as v1.0.0.17.
Are you sure this is not what yours is saying and not v1.0.0.7 ?
Beyond that I have no idea, but thought it was worth checking as there seems to be a version mismatch error anyway in this latest version!
no it is 1.007 :-(
Fist i want to say hello to all of X8 comunity members.
I'm not new to android phones, i had few but i'm new with SE Xperia phones.
I need help with few things.
First question: Does flashing update or repair ROM with SEUS unroots rooted phone and puts it in original out of the box system. Just in case phone need to go to warrnty service.
Second question: My phone is Model E15i Firmware 2.1-Update 1 2.1.1.A.0.6 but it has some small setups from Serbian Telenor provider. Is there some Europian Open, nonbranded ROM 2.1.1.A.0.6 version and how could i install it.
Third question: Is there any other app for caledar and contacts. Because this original SE apps are really bad. Calendar can't get further then 1990 and it messed up sync with google calendar when birthdays and anniversary are in sync. And in Contact app also can't be added contact's birthday or anniversary.
Thank you.
-seus makes your phone clean and then loads rom so I think it unroots rooted phones. so do flashing. repairing phone with seus is just automatic flashing with latest official software,
-i think there are some non branded roms. just search in apropriate topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=849
-there are lots of such apps in market search and download whatever you like
With the "SuperOneClick" program you can both root and unroot your phone so you do not even need to reinstall the stock rom.
WELCOME to the club!!!!
P.S.: Do not wait an update from SE. Here you prey to devs
Thank you.
I don't use original roms on HTC Tattoo and Optimus One P500 won't be using original one on X8 for long too only XDA.
Repair/update clean your phone... even if you had it rooted or sth else... after you are clean and they can not trace what you done.
Root has to do with your rom, there are roms rooted by default and others (like official) that you have to root them. So as repair/update install a rom in your phone, its up to the rom if it will be rooted or not.
I'm looking for an app instead of stock contacts too but without success.
I'm having some troubles with my contacts sync with my facebook and google accounts.
hi guys, i have a very strange problem with web play store since i installed the rom batman, if i try to install an app from the browser play store tell me it will be installed shortly, but nothing is installed, i also asked for help in batman section but i he simply liquidated by saying to edit the build.prop file but this did not help me, so I ask him here, do you have some kind of advice? changing the rom the problem does not exist anymore, so i guess it's just a rom issue but i do not know how to fix it, they do not tell it but it seems as long as it does not become a pro user (paying) do not get seriously helped.
