Hi everyone, if you are having trouble with upgrading the ROM on the US TG01, then this is your topic! Here are the few things you must do the update the ROM:
-Fully charge your battery
-Format your MicroSD card to FAT32, then create a folder called "prg" (don't type the speech marks), and place your ROM in there, and don't forget to change it's extension to .enc from .tsw
-Remove the black tab under the SIM slot, beware, pull it upward, not forward
-Can you see the three "yellow circles" on the SIM slot? The first and third one are what we wanted the connet together. Link/connect them with a wire
-Push the power button for 10 seconds
-Wait a little bit
Done!
Don't thank me, thank leeston for all his continous support, hey, thank you again man!

Hi everyone, I've just tried with the mirolg's Sense included English ROM to upgrade the software version on my TG01, but it's just restarting, so nothing changes, any ideas?

Not enough detail for me to help you. Please reply to the following.
1. Which method did you use, short pin or sddl+?
2."just restarting", do you mean that the sd downloader doesn't start and goes straight to Toshiba screen or it starts then resets the device making no changes?
3.If the sd downloader starts, does it say 'Variant Invalid' briefly before it restarts?
If you dont know what shortpin or sddl+ means then look HERE.
Sorry, I did not informed you very well,
I've used the sddl+ method. Clicking on the sddl+ restarts the device, just like a soft reset. If I click on the SD downloader, then it says "Invalid filename".
Thanks for the reply.
Now the SD Downloader says "Error occurred during system reset" when I click Download.
Err?
I'm wondering, is that too difficult to help a mate who is having a problem? PLEASE???

I assume you've read the sticky about rom flashing and are still having problems, follow the guide below and let me know how it went.
Download my ROM from HERE.
Download 7Zip from HERE.
Download sddl+ from HERE.
1.Install 7Zip
2.Right click "TG01WP_StonromR7.7z" and choose "7Zip -> Extract to "TG01WP_StonromR7.7z\"" (This will create a folder called "TG01WP_StonromR7" in the same place as the downloaded file)
3.UnRAR sddl+
4.On your storage card create a folder named "prg" (no speech marks)
5.Copy "TG01WP_Stonrom.tsw" to the "prg" folder on your storage card.
6.Copy sddl+ to the root of your storage card. (root = not in a folder, just straight on the card)
7.Open file explorer and go to your storage card and open sddl+
8.You will now have a white screen, with the text "sd downloader - do not remove battery or storage card" (it may not say exactly this, i can't remember just now)
9.Wait
10.Wait a bit more
11. The phone should restart after a bit of waiting, the first boot can take a long time. Be patient.
I only say use my rom because i know it flashes and boots on my 2 devices.
If this doesn't work, pay attention to the on screen messages during flashing and post them here word for word, along with which rom you tried and any other info that you can provide.
Thanks again for your help, downloading right now, I'll inform you about the process.
It doesn't work, only says "Invalid filename" if I click on the TG01_SDDL.
If I click on the tg01_sddl+, the device just restarts, no further changes, still the same problem.
???
BTW, I changed the ROM's name to TG01WP_00.tsw, now the SD Downloader says "Error occurred during system reset".

Only thing i can think of is to rename the .tsw to .enc.
I tried that too. It doesn't work neither.
BUT,
Thank you very, very much for your afford.
Post edited, detailed informations added.
Have you tried updating you TG with the manufacturer update instead of a cooked ROM? Just to prove that flashing is possible on your device.
I would suggest using the official update and SD Downloader from Toshiba.
Please post back with your experiences.
Yes, actually I've tried with the TG01WP-WM6.5-UK file. Result: Same

Where did you get the file? The correct file name should be "TG01WP_5005000176.tsw" or "TG01WP_5005000167.tsw" not "TG01WP-WM6.5-UK"
Just to clarify, is it an Orange UK TG01? Did you buy it from a shop or second hand?
I got the file from Toshiba's official web site (Europe).
Err, I don't know where my device is from, but I can assume you it's a TG01, not the "A" one.
Here, the file is included on the file I've downloaded:
TG01WP_5005000176.enc
Ok, the phone is from USA, I guess it has a different software version updater.

The only thing i can see that is left now is to use the short pin method. Details are in the guide to flashing tut in the sickies. You will need to make sure the radio versions are the same first though.
Start\settings\system\about\version info. Where it says radio version is what you need to know. Mine is "5005.1600.05" so would be referred to as 1600 here. If you let me know what radio you have i will upload a ROM with the correct radio for you.
This may take me a little while though.
Radio version is 5001.0000.5319
Very different, heh?

I'll try and find a rom with that radio, for now though try renaming the tsw to .enc and try short pin.
I think some phones released to America have different radio hardware than UK phones. I'm not sure if this is the case for the TG01 though. I think we have a few American forum users. Maybe they could help if they are reading this?
Anyway, I really appreciate your help and support.
No need to install modaco R6 as it is not fully compatible with the latest vega firmware 1.8. Just follow these simple instructions and it will be working without any add-ons at all. CWM people will probably have to do it via the recovery.
Just download the attachment with the vega, go to settings, software tool, software update and point it to where you got the downloaded file. The vega will reboot and you will have a full working market. It will be the old version the first time you launch it but it will update itself. After that just install maps, youtube and everything else google. The only thing I'm having trouble installing is the official twitter app.
Hope that helps you guys at XDADEV

hi guys, i'm having issues trying to install market. i have tried this file and the one from o_g. with no luck. i can dl find and execute the file. when i comes to reboot i get the android out of the box symbol (which i'm assuming is bad ?)and have to power down the vega to get it to boot again, without market ? any ideas ? i have little knowledge of android (phone related only) and am a bit stumped.

No, you don't necessarily need it but it doesn't hurt if you do. It has to be done via recovery if you do though, different process. What firmware have you got?

The android out of the box symbol is fine thats when it is flashing the files. there should be a progress bar that turns orange, after that happens the device should reboot its self. The only requirement is you are running stock v1.08.

I have noticed launcher pro does not show in the market had to install manually. i have tried changing the market files, but that does not work, so it might be as you say down to location, or i think it could be to do with are device name on the market, maybe advent does not want us to have those apps. I cant remember where the device name is. I will have to look further.

Thanks o_g, there is no progress bar? And if i leave the vega notfhing happens. Running stock 1.08. I'm wonering if i have been sent a second or a return. The battery was fully charged out of the box and the screen polythene had most definately been removed and replaced. Need to do some more reading methinks
Thanks for the assistance guys, my memory card was the culprit. I had swapped it for a bigger one, and not copied the contents. Sorted now tho now to get flash working properly

It works ok, you need to delete some of the apk's out of files/system/app. things like car home can be deleted and other little things. Like that it will not run out of space when you install it and it will not give you errors. This is just another option, that's all. Some more goodies will come along from modaco and xdadev like the new R7 rom addon that were made specifically for the 1.08 firmware.
thanks man, i just changed the 0 to a 1 at the end and it worked, then market updated the second time i opened it.

Hi folks, i'm looking for 2 days a way to solve my DHD problem:
It can't boot anymore. It pop up the "htc quietly brilliant" screen, play the boot sound and, start this step again, and again, and again...
So I'm googling a LOT about how to solve this, if exist a way to restore the original rom. Because i'm thinking that was the problem, my original rom is gone.
That happens when i try to install 3 softwares from appbrain, my device got freeze and i hit the power button to reset. So, after that, my device is gone.
So i came here, to ask you folks: There is a way to recover the original rom ? Without send to warranty (because it spend something like 1 month here).
I'm not a mobile hacker or something, i'm just trying to be happy with my device.
Thanks a lot and sorry for my poor english!!
Perhaps try booting to the bootloader, by holding Power + Volume down button. From there, you should be able to do a factory reset, which may or may not fix your problem. Worth a shot at least, imo
And if it does not work when you do a factory reset, you can use a rom.zip from HTC RUU to restore your phone.
Now the important thing is to know which HTC rom you are running. If it is unbranded, 1.72.405.3 is a sure shot. Download the RUU.exe from Stock roms thread in android development subforum, and run it. When the window pops up, open run prompt, and type: "%TEMP%". Then search for rom.zip, copy it to your desktop, rename it to PD98IMG.zip and put it to your SD card (I hope that you have a card reader). Then just reboot to bootloader as tmh described, and watch the magic happen
Then if your phone is branded, you can still use the same technique to make PD98IMG.zip, but you have to get the RUU that matches your branding. There are lots of RUUs in android development subforum, just search.
Hi guys,
thanks a lot for quik reply!
I perform the procedure indicated by tmh, but without lucky ;\
I think it is unbranded. I buy it at Portugal and i'm using at Brazil right now.
I'll perform your tip jkoljo.
I'll post a repply to let people know if it works or not.
Thanks a lot!!
Hope the advice the last guy gave helps , a factory re set may work fine and fix the issue. Iv had 3 dhd since the day of release , the second one I had wouldn't switch on, had it replaced by Vodafone . Not sure weather or not they will give you a new one . Hope u get it fixed

the different is just the radio version. just try flash one of them and see if that work.
WWE means World Wide English, which is an international release
Any one of those RUUs you linked is ok, as hedayat7 already said.
WWE is World wide English...so both are english Roms...try the RUU flash, it should work like a dream....

Sorry ask for your help again, but at Official thread (thread number 841207) for DHD files, both 1.72.405.3 links are broken.
So i search for another thread, and found another one, but when i run the .exe, it ask for a USB connection to device, so it appears wrong.
Could you gimme a hand to find the correct file?
PS: I can help with a web hosting to all correct files.
You probably found the correct RUU, now proceed to %TEMP% and copy rom.zip to desktop.
You can find RUUs here: http://xdafil.es/index.php?path=DesireHD/RUU/
I am not completely sure if those zip files are actual rom.zips, you can check that. Open up the zip, and if it has a long list of hboot, system, android-info.txt etc, then it is rom.zip and you can just go ahead and rename it to PD98IMG.zip.

But i did that.
The "1.72.405.3" files at this URL are broken (Or need password to access it, because "You don't have permission to access" message pop up).
When i run the RRU i got two screens, first i must accept a advice, the second one ask if I have a USB connection to my device. Even when i proceed to next step, i got no .zip file on my %TEMP%.
Im lost because of that lol
UPDATE: OK I FOUND IT! haha ty
Thanks a lot my friends,
but it doesn't work.
I perform the process for 2 different roms, and it doesn't work.
Still can't boot.
I'll sent for warranty and wait a loooong time..
But thanks a lot for help me with this!!
Ok, then there is something wrong in the device itself. You have to send it to a service center.

Hi again,
i keep a little hope that i can restore my phone, so i found a possible solution:
OTA update.
At "showthread.php?t=667728&page=2", i found a guy with the same problem i think, here is the quote:
Kinma said:
I had the same problem last week.
I suspected it had to do with the EXT3 partition.
Solved it by first flashing the OTA 2.2 ROM (for rooted users) as this does not use the EXT3. Then used Rom manager to recreate the EXT3.
Now all ROMs that use the EXT3 run fine!

(thanks Kinma for the feedback)
So, i start a search for OTA update file here, and found at "showthread.php?t=885996".
But when i choose "Apply sdcard:update.zip", i got INVALID OPERATION.
Someone have a tip for me about this?
Thanks (its very sad, but i must keep hope).

You are welcome.
What happened was that after a reboot of the phone the phone started rebooting in the boot sequence, i.e. a boot loop.
I tried a lot of things and nothing worked.
Finally I suspected that the problem might be with the SD card. I had a backup, so I had no problem doing a factory reset.
Then I booted the phone without the SD card.
The phone booted fine.
That way I was certain that the problem was with the SD card.
I had 2 partitions on the SD card, an EXT3 part and the rest was a normal Fat part.
I could still read the card, so I made a backup of all the data on the card.
Then I reformatted the card using windows.
The phone booted fine with an empty, reformatted, SD card.
Since I use Apps 2 SD, I had to recreate the EXT3 partition.
If your rom does not use this, you do not have to do this.
After recreating the EXT partition, put back all files that I want on my SD card.
My advice would be to do a factory reset and after that boot the phone without the SD card.
If the phone boots, you know the problem is with the card.
Hope that helps; good luck!

I'm really without luck with this.
I do:
- Factory reset
- Clear cache and userdata
- Boot without SD or/and SIM cards
- Reflash RUU WWE 1.72.405.3 Radio 26.04.02.17_M2
- Reflash RRU WWE 1.72.405.3 Radio 26.04.02.17_M2 SF
- erase all SD
One show was use OTA update.zip, but at this step i got "invalid operation"
SO, nothing works!
Well, it appears a lost battle =\
thanks folks for all help.
Yeah, there must be something wrong in your device itself, for example a motherboard fault. Send it back to HTC.

Also, downloads for Dexter's mods have historically been buggy for many users. The file you download (through 1.3) should be around 100MB. The exact size varies between versions. If the above suggestions don't work for you, try downloading the file again.
If you still have issues with the downloaded file, other users have found download success by using a browser download plugin called flashgot. It only works with Firefox and Thunderbird though.
http://flashgot.net/
I had an issue with the download with similar results to yours. My download was only about 63K whem it should of been a little over 100MB.
I had to start down loading the 1.2 update, that would start to download the whole 1.2 file. I'd cancel the download then download 1.3. For some reason after that it downloaded the complete 1.3 update file and I was able do the update.
So, check your downloaded file size and see if that's you issue. Also make sure you rename it Update with a capitol "U".
how long does the download take? i followed the instructions and my screen went to a picture of an android? and a box and stayed that way.

Did you boot into recovery (1. by turning off the unit, then power it on by holding the power button for a second, release, and then hold again until the recovery menu pops up), or did you use the settings menu to run the Update file (2. Open Settings > About device > System updates > Update device)?
If you did option 1, the soft keys on the side of the tablet allow you to navigate from the image you reference (android robot & box):
Search Key = Up
Back Key = Down
Home Key = Menu
Menu Key = Select
When you see the robot, press the Home key to take you to the update menu. Navigate the menu to clear your cache. After the cache wipe is complete, select the option to install Update.zip. Give it about 10min to run through the update, and it should reboot. If it reboots into an Elocity Logo loop, long press the power key until it shuts down. Your next boot should take you into a properly functioning tablet. Depending on the version of the OS you currently have installed, the update may retain your current apps and settings.
I haven't tried option 2 in a while, but it should do everything for you automatically - but it will probably factory reset the tablet and you'll lose any previously installed apps.
thanks. Did not know this when i posted found out byaccident when wipinfg off fingerprints. Wish they sent directions with the A7.

NP. Did exactly the same thing back in December.
if you have not solved your issue I believe I had simular problem. the file when you download is already a .zip file. So when you rename it just rename it "Update"
Another newbie here with a question.
My new A7 is due to be delivered tomorrow.
From what I have gathered so far from this board is that the Dexter Mod allows you to get apps from google marketplace, correct?
I am not sure which version of firmware will come on the A7 but I am going to assume that it will not be the latest one released in February.
My question is should I do the firmware update first, and then download and install the Dexter Mod?
Thanks in advance.

Dexter's mods have all been based on firmware updates from Elocity. He has kindly added market functionality and fixed a few bugs. I don't see any value in updating with Elocity's firmware prior to installing Dexter's latest.
As the other poster said there is no need for the elocity 7 update but if I were youI would keep it handy. I had a problem with the mod and had to reset the device with the old firmware. Also it seems a weird problem with android reading the file as when reading in astro the upddate.zip looked like update.zip.zip. w
Wierd.
So you just write update i dont even capitalize it.
Also want to add as newbie to andrid as well and it makes a huge difference in performance too. Think it is fast now when you put the mod it seemed to increase overall performance for me which I did not expect.
Good luck

That is not an android problem. That is what happens when windows explorer is set to hide known file extensions and people dont think when remaming things.
Please do not insult people because we lack knowledge which is why we are here to figure out what is going on. I had no idea windows explorer was set to hide file extensions. I never set it that way nor was i ever told before now. Now that I know i can do something but I was thinking, maybe i do not know what i am doing but you could offer help without making me feel like an idiot.

So it is not OK for me to point out an obvious mistake (seriously, this one is like calling grass purple). BUT it is perfectly fine for you to assume that it is a "problem with android" and disseminate misinformation like its your job.
Yup, I am obviously in the wrong.
It is obvious to you. I made a mistake and never said I was an expert and pointed that out in my response by saying I was a newbie too and this was what happened to me and my best guess was what I said. I never said I knew it was an andriod glitch but because I had no other idea until someone like you with more knowledge chimmed in.
All I am saying is you could have corrected me as a newbie with a sense of friendship and not superiority. I was sharing my experience to help someone else. That is all I want to do. I am no expert and am learning as I go.
I have seen others in linux forums when i started with that with the tone. Maybe it seems like thecolor of grass to you but is not so obvious to others. If I sounded like I was telling people mis information then I apologize. That was not my intention.
It is up to you how you treat others and if it feels like the right thing then that is your right. Just understand that some of us are not out to show we are smarter than anyone else and are just trying to help even when we make wrong assumptions.
Thanks for correcting me and setting the record straight.

i would not doubt it
i dont know the change log
but i have seen two users report the 13.2.2.2 update
it could not be anything more than to mess up the work around that people have been getting away with by updating the build.prop
because when i try to change the build.prop to 14.3.2.2_user_322095220 in all the right places and try to save it the way i did before using root explorer it saves as 0 kb and is blank when i look at it.so i delete it and change the build.prop.bak file that is created when changing the build.prop back to build.prop because i am afraid to reboot with the blank one in fear of a brick

Google "hdx 8.9 download"
Find the Amazon page that lets you manually download the updates
The download link points to 14.3.2.1..
Copy that link into a new browser window and edit it in two places
this is for 8.9 obviously

What Changed?
Wonder what changed... the recovery, kernel(s) and system apps all appear to be the same. There must be some critical bugs that had to be urgently patched with this latest update coming so quick on the tail of the 13.3.2.1 update.
[Edit]Upon closer inspection, looks like there are some noticeable changes in the following apps:
WhisperlinkSdk.apk
WhisperplayActivityView.apk
WhisperplayCDSSettings.apk
WhisperplayCore.apk
WhisperplayQCSource.apk
com.amazon.communication.apk
com.amazon.tcomm.apk

I've updated 13.3.2.2, somehow opened when the machine is updated immediately so!!
I wonder if it would be possible to insert the SU binaries in this new update and then manually install it without breaking the signature
I just did a manual "Check Update" on my HDX 7 and it said no new updates, but only has 13.3.2.1.
I did sniff the traffic from the Kindle during this check and found that it contacted "softwareupdates.amazon.com" - which I now blocked in my router for what its worth.
Captured packets attached just in case they're useful.
Well crap. Blocking the server as above on my home LAN did stop the update from ever happening but I forgot to turn WiFi off at School and what do you know, 13.2.2 snuck right on in in a matter of minutes

Couple questions...
1. Once I stay out of the Stock rom it shouldn't update. Am I right on that?
2. If I have a rom slot with Fire OS loaded to it and in use. Can I turn on wifi and it not update?
3. I have the AOSP rom in as lot. Can I turn on wifi in this without fear of update?

install safestrap on both stock and rom slot one
so it will not be able to fully update it will bootloop back to safestrap according to GSLEON3
Update the hosts file on the kindle to point to localhost(127.0.0.1) or something. That might, or might not offer some help on WiFi you don't control. You'll need to still have root to do this of course.
