Hello. I've finnaly bought an HTC magic , and happens that i've bought from Vodafone. I'm interested in knowing how may i make the update on the HTC website since it always tells me that the serial is not valid. Also i'm interested on to root the device, but i would like to know the advantages and disavantages.
I already know how to root, by the gold card method, i've got already everything prepared. I just liked to know the advantages.
I'm very interested on android 2.1. I know there'll be an update to that version. But i would like to know if there is a way of updating it from HTC vodafone edition .
I've already read alot, and sorry if i prefer to ask, seems easier but i'm kind of lost. Thank you everyone for the help!!
Regards
I like rooting cause you get to theme, I love theming it for fun. Also get to do things that other phones can't do, um you can use a way better rom than the one you have. My Stock Rom was horrible. If I played a game, my battery would be gone in no time. Other Roms here help out with problems like that and you can go from 1.5 to 2.1 which is nice. I also love things people give out here, for example: I recently tried out a keyboard app which had almost every feature and I could basically customize it to my liking. You just have to root, and use your phone and learn it to really enjoy what it is. I have yet to make a rom! Just don't be like the ppl who come here, beg and ask how to root the damn phone, and just install a rom. That's no fun lol.
I also wouldn't upgrade from Vodafone or any carrier. Here where I am, Rogers totally locked ours out. You may end up with a locked SPL or soemthing, you can most likely get the same thing here or better thanks to the devs.
i've heard that we would also get banned from the android market. is it true? why does this happen? and how that happens exacly? Thanks!
banned for using a different rom? Where in the world did you hear that i'd like to know lol. Mabye if you tried to get apps for free instead of pay for them or some kind of hack oh I don't know! maybe you'll get banned but I've never heard of getting banned for using a diff rom
hmm it was someone here wich told me that. Well if is that safe i'll root it today
i went all over again, according to all tutorials, perfect SPL must use the gold card method. So i used the gold card method (again and i started the making of gold card all over again)!
i putted the sappimg.zip in the gold card.
I restart in Hboot mode, he finds the sappimg.zip and a blue bar appers as loading onthe right.
After is checking the img gives an error saying, Update Failed! Main version is older Failed updated.
Do you know whats this about? Thank you!

Hi guys,
Yesterday my phone started to show the following message:
"This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers."
At the moment I cant sync my phone at all.....
Yesterday I lost my touch pro so this comes at a very bad time
I searched but coulnd find a working solution, hope you guys can help me.
Ty anyway.
Where did you get this ROM from? Or was it already on your phone when you bought it? Where did you buy the phone from?

Hi i experienced this before with a cooked rom, the only way is a hard reset, and do not change the date and flash another rom
Thanks, hard-reset works. Flashing now.
Lost my pictures but ok my stupid idea to go to custom roms
Did you use the volDeus Transparent bars and HQ BG Tweak. If so a few people have been experiencing this due to a TimeBomb in some of the shell32.exe and aygshell.dll files. You need to get the correct unpatched versions of these files from your base rom.

I used an Energy rom for about 3 months I guess.. Cant remember the build etc. Seems that I have to flash more often
Yeah, the MS time-bomb must be removed by the chef.
Hello,
Sorry for disturbing but I really need a firmware pack for a prototype X10.
I received it for testing, and it seems someone flashed a generic stock firmware on it.
The result - a beautiful x10 with no network access, it can not register to any network provider.
If anyone has such a firmware, please PM me.
Thank you all

Maybe you need to enter the network setting (aka APN)? If that is not the problem then go here.

no, that is not the case.
Thephone is a prototype, and it can not use the network at all with shiped rom - meaning no voice at all - it acts as if it was in "airplane mode".
Thank you for your opinion, anyway
Hello Agarthian,
what SI (CDF) does the prototype have (Label below the battery)?
Regards - Nonixnarrez
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Build ap1
Si 1228 - 3677.1k 09w26
Thank you
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Hi again,
I´ve flashed such a prototype (exactly the same type/data as yours) with a DE/CH generic software version (CDF/SI: 1235-7836). Only limitation of the prototype board is that Bluetooth is not implemented and speaker is weak.
Good luck - Nonixnarrez
Is there any way you could give me that specific firmware? I searched for it but i was unable to find it.
Would be most grateful if you could upload the file somewhere and PM me the download link.
Thanks in advance

this is a russian 2.1 version but it is for dev phones, im pritty sure u can work it out

hope this works for u mate
Thank you, flashed this firmware but it seems that the problem was not caused by the firmware after all.
The phone still asks for "sim network unlock pin" - the phone is not network locked, being a prototype. The other X10's we received are just fine, this one just refuses to use any sim card.
Any other ideas? I'm running out of them.
Hello Agarthian,
I'm sitting here looking at the lovely X10i prototype that a major-manager at SE gave me some time back. It irritates me hugely not to be able to upgrade it to 2.1 and so I was wondering if this is what You have done/are attempting? If so, have You been successful?
Cheers/M

Hi.
I have 2.1 on it, but this huge problem about not being able to use any SIM card in it. I really don't know if it originally came with 2.1, because someone else had it for testing before me, and I have no info about what happened to it so far.
Thanks

Well my phone, with a higher SI-number than Your's (if that has any relevance to age) was certainly delivered with the 1.6 it is still running. So probably someone has done a manual upgrade of some sort on the phone to get it to 2.1. Have You spoken with SE support? I had a X10 Mini Pro that they actually took pity on and upgraded for me. It probably helped that I live in Stockholm and had an SE lab here close-by... No such service-mindednes this time round, though....
Thanks/M

This rom is made by ATX team, so all credits goes to them.

4.0.4 android 404029 baseband; 3.0.8-perf kernel
Pros:
1. Lag free
2. Superb camera quality (i never knew, that our phone is capable of this, i can record HD video on 30fps, without any fps drop, unless entering from dark to light), panorama also works
3. Integrated root manager
4. Mobile data counter on taskbar
5. Themes working
Cons:
1. 3g doesnt work for me
2. First start in Chineese
Download here:
pan.baidu.com
(Just dont forget to select our phone model when downloading)
Official thread here:
bbs.anzhi.com
I do not give any support for this rom, because i did not make it, im just sharing. There will be no flashing instructions, because if dont know how to do it, skip this thread.
Right now im testing lite version of this rom, if it works good, ill post link to it either.
Can you upload it somewhere else?

You need to set up your apns, it is carrier specific.
You will need to contact your carrier and ask them for the APN.
doesnt work

I try but that doesnt work, the problem is this: y have signal 2g/3g (i can recibe calls and sms even if i chose only wcdma) but when i go to state and then to status it says:
Mobile network type: unknow
Mobile network state: disconnected
the other fields are ok
the imei is the rigth one, the network show the carrier, service state is active, so basicly thats the problem, i cant use data but i can recibe calls and sms in 2g/3g
Downloading it now Thanks for sharing :highfive:
It works great, it's really good i love it. The only thing i found it's that the wifi works really slow for me :/
Im using a u8800-51, maybe that's why.
can u upload it anywhere it will cancel everytime
Hey guys, i new here soh, i don't know if its allow to post thinghs that probably had another post about but here we go.
Sorry for asking this but i've searching for a solution for days and guess ? i don't found nothing clear to give me an answer.
Ok, i had my zenfone 5 for almost 2 years, than lately he start to lag and stuff, soh i decide to change de rom. I unlock the bootloader and install the CM 13.1, the first hour seems to looks good, but some minutes after the phone just freeze and reboot, than i try another roms, RR( many Builds), the problem still going =/, now i'm using the Leopard black, and guess ? Yes the freeze still going.
after read like an animal for hours and don't find any clear information about this, i went here, and my question is: First, can i use any rom that its not the stock rom whit xposed and root, and berfore that lock the bootloader ? or its real necessary ?
Second, this freeze problem have a real solution?
Third: If all that i answer is no, some advice ? because i really don't want to use the stock rom...
Thanks Guys, and sorry for my bad english...
Sorry there is no solution for screen freeze issue as zf5 have different types of motherboard. You won't be able to boot(usb sign) if you lock the bootloader and have a custom rom or stock rom with custom kernel.
As I'm also facing the same issue my advice is flash stock rom (.540 kitkat is good as battery backup is nice) and lock the bootloader.

It doesn't make sense friend... i don't think that is something related to the batery....
i forget to reply before, i had open the phone to verify that possibility to had some kind of hardware problem, but no, seems to be all fine.
Soh, i back to the stock rom BUT, the DANM FREEZES still going... of corse they happen less often but still happening, that link you post here hpgramani, it do not work, and i search and found an tutorial to get back to stock rom, i made it, block the bootloader but as i said the problem still happen.

Hey there, if you are still facing freezing issues and have install stock rom then your device's bootloader is not properly relocked. I also faced same issues but after re-lock my zf5 is working fine... I will be needing following details so as to assist you further...
1. Current android version with firmware no. like .540
2. Fastboot version, to open fastboot type
adb reboot bootloader
Few months ago I was also planning to buy a new phone like you due to freezing issue... But I relocked the bootloader and now my zf5 is working fine, so I won't recommended you to buy a new phone if you are able to use zf5 more.
As buying a phone with major technological change is highly recommended but the phones available now and zf5 do not differ majorly.
But still if you need to buy a new phone(which I don't think is necessary) reply with following details
1. Your country
2. Your budget
3. Your typical usage
