Alpine R.I.P. Help please.

Alpine R.I.P.
Hello First of all to excuse the translation for the reason that my level of English is null and I must myself serve as tools like google to translate.
I have a problem and salary if some of you happens some solution to you since I no longer have but ideas. I have tried to change to the one language alpine (xdalli) and the result has been death.
The steps:
1: Copy original ROM (in English) with romupdate.
2: To pass copied ROM to the PC with ntrw.
3: Once copied to separate the ROM in three parts (header.nb1, ext.img and trailer.nb1) with split.
4: With the publisher hex workshop 4,2 to copy the head of the file header.nb1 removed from xdalli and to copy it in the file header.nb1 of 2020i_XDII_cambio_idioma_esp_by_ferdy (ROM in Spanish). Thus we would obtain that xdalli when loading the new ROM by SD in Spanish thought that this about English when really this in Spanish.
5: Once kept the file header.nb1 modified I have mounted rom.nb1 uniting the 3 parts with merge (before divided with split header.nb1, ext.img and trailer.nb1.) So it would be left header.nb1 modified, ext.img and trailer.nb1 are the original ones of xdalli.
6: To copy with ntrw in the SD.
7: To put xdalli bootloader with the SD inside and leaves message SD download press to power to flash.
8: Once fact this and finished updating reset.
9: And here it is where one dies.
These are the followed steps, now pda does not start neither in normal way nor in bootloader nor reset nor hard reset. KO
Some idea please, although is absurd since xda does not respond to anything.
Thanks and I wait for your ideas.
PS: of brave this the full cemetery. Who would command to touch xdalli to me. jejjejeje

Does it write anything on the screen? Or nothing at all? Try to remove and insert battery again.

get into bootloader, put in cradle n upgrade your ROM. g00d luck!
p/s:Enter to Bootloader Mode by press Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.

hi clustered,
The problem is that it does not enter nor bootloader. If it entered already she would be alive.
greetings

hi server
I cannot write nothing in the screen and believe that the reason went that when doing upload before described to him loaded bootloader to me.
I have tried to leave the battery that exhausted days and when I put it in the base ignites the red light of load nothing else but.
Also I have tried to put it in load without battery and to tighten the button of ignition and nothing.
I have put myself in contact with pof to comment the problem to him and it has commented to me that a serious solution jtag and to load to him to bootloader new but not it encounter for alpine.
If some solution is happened to you but it would be arranged to make it since this dead now.
Thanks and greetings

[Q] HTC Touch 3G Clone Upgrading Problem (T3232 K3) [SOLVED]

Hey guys,
first, im sorry for opening a new thread, but none of the other threads helped me.
I bought a HTC Touch 3G Clone in China:
ROM: 2.706.2
QUALCOMM 7225
528 Mhz
RAM: 192MB
NEXPERIA SY.SOL 5209
Windows 6.5 Chinese
HardSLP doesn't work. It cant get a connection to the phone, although ActiveSync has one.
Then i tried to upgrade with my 1gb sd-card. But none of the button-combinations of this forum work.
I tried some other comb. and found three of them:
green button + red button + power --> reset config
vol up + vol down + power --> calibration screen
vol up + red button + power --> a white screen with "downloading"-label
vol down + red button + power --> a green/white screen saying: Checking valid image file
I think the last one is important to install a new rom. After 10 seconds it says:
Step 3 error while updating
Card operate: read retry timeout
Then i tried several rom-versions posted here. Nothing happens.
I just want an english operating system...
I really hope someone can help me. Its driving me crazy...
Thank you for your help.

Buddy close this thread & go 2 Touch 3G General -where u have posted ur thread- & read other threads, many can help.
HSPL does not work 4 cloams!! & also u can't use those custom ROMs on cloam!
check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580367&page=3 but make the "hxxp" correct!
Also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=657212 links.
Search more, u will find stuff. If u follow the General forum related 2 cloams (clones) u will get more! U shall use a ROM working 4 cloam. Mine is T3238+, I'll try 2 help as far as my knowledge lets me!

Thank you for your help.
Sure, I can post my problem there. But I already read them and it didnt help. I tried both of the ROM-files. I get the same error:
Step 3 error while updating
Card operate: read retry timeout
I have a 1GB sd-card, formated in standart windows-fat-format.
I think there must be another button-combination for the update mode.
But like i said none of the combinations mentioned in the board work, and there are plenty of them...
In your second link I have seen:
3) Boot into TF Update Mode by holding the Green + Confirm + Red + Power Button
I tried it, nothing happens (if the confirm button ist the round big one in the middle)... What should I do?

Hi again,
Yes, confirm = big button; only use the ROMs 4 cloam phones not those 4 real 1s.
Seems that ur phone starts reading the file but stops in the middle, this means u have gone 2 update mode, only it can't continue; try another SD card.
-- Mine is Touch 3G T3238+. By far NO key comb. has worked 4 me. Seems that these cloams don't have a booter like other 1s.
I turned off my phone -> connected it 2 PC w/ WMDC -> Vol. down + green + power => a menu screen appeared!! w/ options like "update OS", "update logo" & ...
C if this works 4 u, though "update OS" did not work on my phone but mine has sum other problems 2, so u give it a try.
-- Turn ur phone off, insert the SD & just turn it on normally, this shall start reading SD.
Don't make the card as FAT 32 (though not possible!), only FAT or FAT 16.
Don't put the ROM in a folder on SD, let it be on the root directory.
-- Once open SD w/ ur phone -as u open e.g. "My document" - & c what message it shows? Does it even read the card??

Thank you very much for your help. I finally made it.
The trick ist to use a ROM with a .bin-format and rename it to "k3img.bin"
The update mode doesnt accept other names.
I flashed my phone to windows mobile 6.1 eng. version.
Now i have a bunch of other problems. Bad key mapping, no camera... and the biggest problem: the phone doesnt find any storage cards.
Under Settings-System-Memory it says: "Total storage card memory: Not installed".
What can i do? I need that extra storage.... And now i cant get into the update mode because windows deleted the old button map. Tried any combination, doesnt work.
Please help.

Hi again,
Well, I am a noob myself!! unfamiliar w/ these phones!! but I think keys problem is bcoz of the ROM; though it is installed, but it's not the proper 1!
Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=662170&highlight=QUALCOMM seems that this "first aid" has helped!!
Trying another ROM, BUT now that u can't use SD ......!! also the PC does not run .bin or .upr files!! Mayb if u change the file 2 .exe, it gets installed (of course after sync.!)
2 get 2 update mode, c if connecting 2 PC (my prev. post) does any good!!
I don't know any way; In sum days I shall go 2 the phone service center 4 my phone; I'll ask 2 c if they knew any way & [/I]if if they let me know about it[/I]!!

i have repeated this process a dozen times to ensure that i have not missed anything out last nite i made sure that the battery was fully charged and also i updated my rom from the htc website to the latest version as i have read that some people cant get android working at all unless they did this. i did the process until i got the black screen again and left it all night thinking that it may take a long timer as it is the first time i have ever tried loading android but i woke up and the screen was still there i am not sure what i have done wrong i have watched videos on youtube and read forums but no one else seems to have had this problem any help would be greatly appriciated thanks
i have just tried to boot an older version of froyo android the 2.2v i got past the first black screen and it went to the black screen where the white writing starts to scroll down the the writing faded into white lines what am i doing wrong

back up your sdcard contents to your computer.
format it, preferably from a linux box. if your stuck with win-blows, then you can do a full format, not the quick format.
now put JUST THE ANDROID folder on the sdcard.
put sdcard in phone, boot into android. when it boots, dont do ANYTHING for 5 min. reboot.
once it reboots, goahead and log in, synch etc.... then reboot
after that you can coppy the rest of the sdcard contents back over and be good to go.

which winmo rom, radio rom, and android build are u using?

i am using the darkstone froyo 3.7 build i am not sure what radio is or which one i am using i will try what you have suggested and let you know how it goes

right i formated (full) the sd car using windows vista the only way i could do this is plugging my phone into my laptop using the usb and formatting it that way
then i copied just the android folder to my sd card
rebooted the phone and went to file explorer opened the android folder doulbe clicked on clrcad then on haret
i was then stuck on the screen that i was before so i waited 5 mins just like you said to rebooted the phone and it was still on windows.
i repeated the same steps and waited ten minutes still no luck
also just so i understand after i waited five minutes should i be able to reboot the phone i do i have to pull the battery out like i did and where you put (when it reboots login etc)
is there any way you could email me a file to see if it is the files i am using
thanks for all you help so far guys!!!!
i am from th UK i dont know if that makes a difference
i have a 2gb sd card

i have just done some research on the radio versions and round a thread called master radio for the htc hd2 on xda but i am unsure which one to use and could this be the root of my problem thanks again
OS version 8.2.2.1869(21869.5.0.82)
manila version 2.5.20121429.0
ROM version 1.72.206 (8637200) WWE
ROM date 04/15/10
radio version 2.07.51.22_2
Protocol version 15.32.50.07U

i have just done a bit more research and found out that i need to use a .50 for flashing could this be a problem if i dont could this be th root of my problem

very big part I'd say.... It does say on just about EVERY build that you need a .50 radio NOT a .51....

no, depending on the class (speed) of your card it'll take 15-20 min to initalize on the first boot... theres alot going on in the background.
once its booted...ie: once it shows the initial android log in screen. ie: it has actualy booted into android.
if you pull the battery in the middle of the first boot, you just corupted the data it was writing.
format the card again - get rid of the corupted files.
now start over.
and yes, you got to have the corect radio installed etc.
most roms have a requirements list... if not folow the stickies.
as ive stated a ton of times in a ton of thereads, its worth installing ether droid explorer or adb on your pc if for no other reason but to be able to run a logcat so you can watch it run comandline, aswell as post it so others can help you debug/troubleshoot.

I have the same issue with linux showing that message then it boots up a green htc sign and stays there.. i left it there for 40 minutes waiting to see if anything would happen and never did. I had android running before but did a full format on my sd card and then installed another and this happens everytime i try.
I am running Miri_Dinik- V 19.0 WWE
Radio: 2.15.50.14
I also am using the 16g sd card that came with my tmo hd2
i have been searching for days for an answer and decided to finally make a post to see if i can get any answers
thanks

[Q] Very first splash screen

Hello,
Last year I had installed a custom WM6.5 rom to my android, an "energizer" rom. The very first splash screen, the one appearing just after pressing the power button, was replaced by an energizer logo.
Then I went ahead and installed an SD card Android, but since it required WM6.5 to load first, the splash screen was still the same.
Now I installed Magldr and CWM_Recovery, then a custom NAND Android rom.
However the first splash screen of energizer is still there. I don't want it. I want my own image to be there, since it's obviously changeable. Do you know how I can change that, without harming my magldr or cwm installation?
Thanks!

you need to creat one and turn it into a nbh file, there was a tool that did all this for you, ight need to search this place for it or google

See "watermarking " link in my sig.

That seems to be the solution I've been looking for, I hope I can make it work
I'll use the 0x600 memory space, right? Because 0x601 will remove MAGLDR I have installed?

correct. .....

Great, now the very first boot image is my custom one
Then the Magldr boot sequence starts with some codes like a terminal screen. And then a HTC logo appears for several seconds. Finally an animation starts, stays there for half a minute, and the OS loads.
Now, is there a way to change the HTC logo there, the one after the magldr boot?

Too much searching, but this one got me working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12574728&postcount=5
The mount command had to be changed to the following though:
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "boot", "/boot");
However the problem is that the rle files I make up myself don't display correctly on the phone. This exact problem was faced by other people as far as I can see, so my last problem is now that I need to be able to convert a bmp file to rle that the phone can display.

And this one can create correct rle files:
http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...-bootlogo-before-animated-boot-animation.html
I'll make a tutorial tomorrow so that other people can make this easily

[Q] Anyone living in DFW area? I need a huge help!!

Hello you all...
I am an idiot living in DFW area. I have had my nook color since last November and beginning of this year, I've rooted the bloody machine. I don't know what I was thinking. Everyone told me that the process takes only ten minutes or so, and it took me two full days. I should have known that I wasn't smart enough to mass with the machine and should have left it alone.BUT, I did root using the auto rooter file.
This afternoon, I decided to take my nook color back to its default setting and did the 8X thing before preregistering first. Now all I see is the scratched up "n" logo with" with the flashing "color" written beneath and the sickening green robot and the "nook color devs" logo at the bottom right.
It was a gift from my husband which means a lot to me, and I am not in position to just chunk it and buy a new one.
So, is there anyone living in the DFW area who can help me in person. I am only asking this because I am not smart enough to follow all the suggestions and directions that I will get (hopefully). I can show my appreciation to your help with small amount of B&N gift card. Please let me know if there is anyone who is smart and kind hearted to help me out.
Thank you.

You didn't do the 8x thing... be patient and try again, sometimes it seems like a 9x or 10x thing. I have done it a couple of times and just resorted not to count but to keep stopping the boot until it starts booting with the update screen.

Hi bluepen61,
Unfortunately, I did see the update screen. After the update screen and the installing process was finished, I got stuck in the same screen.
I am so sickn' tired of looking at the same screen, I am very very close to
throwing the thing on the wall to be just done with it!

Sent from my NOOKcolor using XDA Premium App

First, if you were able to get the thing rooted, then you are not an idiot (even if it took you two days). If the thing boots at all (which it does by your description...it just gets stuck somewhere), then this can be fixed. Don't throw it out, and dont get too frustrated.
I know you don't think that you can do it, but I can tell you that rooting the Nook is actually harder than installing a custom operating system of returning to the stock operating system.
There is a good thread that gives you step-by-step directions to getting your device back. I can let you know which steps to follow, and we can help if you get stuck...just post here again if a step is giving you trouble and we can guide you through it. I will assume that you want to return the thing to the original stock operating system. If you want to do anything more from there, then it will be easy because you will already know how to do this.
First, go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227
Read the entire first post. If you don't understand what he is talking about, that is OK.
Now go to the section that starts with "On with the guide:" in bold letters.
For step one in this section:
Download the sd card image that is linked in the first sentence. It is a zip file, so you will have to 'unzip' it before you can do anything with it. I will assume that you know how to do this, but if not it is quite easy. If you are using Windows 7 or XP, just double click on the file like you would any other file or folder. It will open up as a folder and you will see a file with the extension ".img" in the folder. Just drag and drop this somewhere outside of the zip folder (like on your desktop). There are also specific programs for doing this - the thread references a program called 7zip that you can download and use if you like.
For step two in this section:
Now that you have the sd card image, you need to 'burn' it (or copy it) to your micro SD card. If you don't have one of these, you only need a 1gb card and they are very cheap at places like Walmart. You will obvisouly also need a way to plug this card into your computer. Hopefully your computer has a place to plug SD cards in - most newer machines do. If not, then you will also need to pick up an SD card reader that plugs into a USB port on your computer. You will need to download either one of the programs linked in this step - either "win32diskimager" of "winimage". I use the first one and it works well. Once you have that downloaded, you will need to run the program as an administrator. This is done in windows 7 by right-clicking on the icon that runs the program, and then selecting 'run as administrator'. If you are on Windows XP, it should work fine without this. Once it is running, follow the directions that they give you in the thread - there is a link there that shows you exactly how to run the program and how to select your ".img" file from above. If you have trouble with this, post the issue here.
Now go down to the section labeled "Epilogue" in bold letters. Go to step #4. You want to follow the link in that step to download the file called "update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip". Once you have this file downloaded, copy it directly over to your sd card that you prepared above - do not unzip it or otherwise modify it.
If you have gotten this far, then you have done the hardest part. Power down your nook, put your sd card in the device, then turn your Nook back on. You should boot into something called ClockworkMod Recovery. It will be a text-based list of commands. The volume up and down buttons lets you navigate through the commands on the screen, the nook 'N' button on the bottom front of the device is equivalent to the 'enter' button that you press to select a command, and tapping the power button will let you back up one menu screen if you select the wrong thing. You want to use the volume down button and highlight the command 'install zip from sdcard'. Press the nook 'N' button to select this option. Use the volume down button again to highlight the 'choose zip from sdcard' command, and press the 'N' button again. You shoud now see a list of all the files contained on your sdcard. Use the volume down button to highlight the file "update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip", then press the 'N' button again. It will ask you to verify that you want to want to do this - select the option confirming that want to proceed and press the 'N' button again. It will take a few minutes, but a message will appear when it is done. At this point, hold the power button in for 8-10 seconds until the machine turns off. Take out your sd card, then turn the power back on. You should boot into the stock 1.2 operating system and your nook is revived.
It seems like a lot, but like I said if you were able to root it then you can do this. If you get stuck, post which step is giving you trouble and we can get you through it.
