Hi Folks
Im trying to revert my windows mobile back to windows as im having too much trouble with the version of android which a friend did for me a while back.
Anway for some weird reason my PC wont recognise my phone during the sync stage, so does anyone know how to revert it back? My friend actually installed the android IOS direct to my phone and not SD card?
To flash via USB, you need to start your phone into bootloader (turn off, turn back on pushing 2 buttons at one time, volume down plus power), and only then connect to the PC. This should work if you had done this before for other purposes (means all drivers are in your system).
As another option, you can flash the Windows Mobile ROM of your choice using the SD card method.
do you have active syn installed or the win7 version make sure sync via usb is unchecked.
if still having troubles you already have hspl because you have android so download the windows mobile rom you would like to use, bearing in mind if you chose a stock rom it will remove hspl and the radio you have and will flash back to stock
if you want a custom rom its simple grab your self a micro sd card less than 8 gig my 4gig has always worked fine, download the rom you want extract using 7zip, look for the file that will be about 150mb in size and the file name ends in .nbh grab that file rename it to LEOIMG.nbh place it on you sd card put the card in your phone turn youre phone on holding volume down button until a grey screen comes on the phone and follow the instructions to flash it

Does anyone know why when I plug the phone in that the computer says USB Device Not Recognized?? I have done all the trouble shooting that HTC and HTC wiki states. I just need to get some sort of connection so I can load a ROM into it and without an activesync connection i'm screwed! Please help!!
activesync isn't needed if you flash from the phones bootloader using sd card or usb.
ok here's the stupid question, bootloader meaning the rainbow screen? also do i just load the RUU onto a sd card and open it up from the phones file explorer?
I just bought a computer that has windows 7 on it and I cant get it to recognize my 6800 also. Any suggestions to correct this?

if you put the rom in on a card and go to bootloader it should find it for you.
I had updated my Hero to software version 2.27.651.6 and started having some problems. The dialer seemed to be slower than usual, sometimes having problems with the on-screen keyboard, and then I could no longer connect my phone to the PC via USB.
Regardless of settings on my hero (Charge only, HTC Sync, Disk Drive, Internet Sharing) all my phone will do is charge when plugged into the PC. I've tried multiple PCs (with different OS) and different cables and have run out of ideas....
I've tried factory reset to no avail.
Is there any way to flash a new ROM via recovery mode with the update.zip?
maybe with a microsd card reader to copy files to the card from the pc. thats about it
just go on ur phone to the xda site find the rom dl it and use linda file manager to move it from ur downloads folder to the root of ur sd card then boot into recovery and there u go
I could swear I read message(s) that said HTC Sync is from the devil and that if installed it must be removed...and now I see message that states explicitly that HTC Sync should be downloaded and installed
Which is it?
I installed it and then uninstalled it after rooting. Have you tried the adb commands after installing Android SDK to see if it recognizes your device? If that doesnt work then you might need to install the HTC sync for the drivers, you can always uninstall it afterwards after youre successfully rooted to proceed.
./adb devices sees it just fine once usb is detected
just can't get the device to show when pressing power from HDBOOT and RECOVERY
tried both linux kubuntu and xp pro
My issue with that, and with htc sync installed, was with my sd card. I tried a different 2gb sd card and formatted it with my pc using an external reader, then I put the sd card back into the device, tried again and it recognized it. I had to reformat the sd card externally a few times when trying.
I am really confused by all this droid stuff. I was just getting the hang of win mobile 6.1 when my tilt went on full tilt and crapped out on me. I got the Aria, and I want to root it but I just don't get it. Do I install that SDK thing on my PC or on my phone's SD card? If I change SD cards, will it stil be rooted?

you install SDK onto something like C:\android, by default the folder is called something else when unzipped into C:\
once you've rooted, changing SD card will not un-root your roots
Thanks for the tip, I finally got that SDK tools thing to appear the right way, even got the pdanet thing hooked up. Now to see if I can actually do this root thingy.
The driver is a little bit tricky . what i do was boot the phone as normal then plug it into the computer so it will recognize the phone then i boot into the recovery.
if i don't do that. the computer will not recognize my phone when it is in the recovery mode. i did change the driver around and play with it.
yeah the drivers are always tricky lol
I've tried to find the answer to my problem, but I can't seem to find the specific help. I sold my Touch GSM working great. I had it returned saying it didn't work.
I think the guy tried to do something to the rom and created problems. The phone will boot up, the icons come up as well as a wallpaper photo of the guy and his family. Before I can access any files, it shuts off and restarts. It just keeps doing this. I can't sync the phone because it never gets to that point.
Can I interrupt the start up? Can I flash it somehow? Can I put something on the micro SD card before it starts up? What can I do to either change the rom or fix the continuous restart.
Thanks for your help.
Fix boot loader from sd card htc touch elf clone
PROBLEM SOLVED. THIS WORKED GREAT FOR ME FINALLY! it's the chinese clone version of the HTC TOUCH gsm. Don't need active sync or to be connected to the computer to work.
It was easy.
My phone would get stuck on the first windows screen and that would be it. Nothing I did would get the phone to work.
1. download the file from the link and unzip it.
rapidshare.com/files/82510452/New_Blue_Touch_ROM_V4.0.zip
2. Transfer the file called update.img to the micro sd card. Make sure you don't put it into any folder, just directly onto the card. (I have a usb micro card reader that I slide the micro sd card into and plug it into my computer) They also have a regular size sd card that you slide the micro into and insert it into your computer.
3. I pushed the side volume switch up, held the power button and did a soft reset.
4. A menu comes up that says something like "boot loader from the sd card."
5. the phone automatically read the card and my phone went to a blue screen with nothing there. I thought it wasn't working, but I let it stay that way for a short while. Sure enough, the phone started up and it hadn't worked for a year before that!
I can't say it will work for you, or what will happen to your phone, but I had nothing to lose.
Good luck
hello there. for you and anyone else with china htc problem this is the solution for it.
go to this page and download the IMG file called "update.img"
then follow this steps.
1. Format your HTC memory card (Micro SD card), so it will be clean.
2. Move the update.img (you already downloaded from the site) to root directory of your Memory card.
3. Press Volume Up button on your htc and while keeping it pressed , press the reset button.
You should get the blue screen telling the update being downloaded. Wait for a while and it will tell that Update is successful and your phone will be rebooted.
THis is it.
Could you tell me where you find the update.img file? I have the same problem, but I couldn't seem to be able to find update.img in the New_Blue_Touch_ROM_V4.0.zip file. Thanks for your help!
i deleted all of my system apps by mistake and now my phone is stuck in boot loop i have no way of getting into recovery HELP
Flash the rom you are on and voila.
And if you don't know which rom it is, then pick something close to it.
Google intolerant download Mode and Flash a Rom via Odin...
I have no access to a PC
Put the installation zip file on your SD card and install it from there.
You need a pc. There is no other way.
Well, if none of your friends have PC, maybe they can find a WiFi hot-spot somewhere and download a ROM via his phone. Then save it to its internal memory. You give him your SD card and he copies it to it... A bit of procedure, but with no PC, you have to be creative!
