This is a evil tiny program, I guess it is malware, in the form of a trojan. I downloaded it from
ftp://xdaupload:[email protected]/Atom/Unlocker/
HTC Atom Unlocker.exe
I was and aware of all of the warning about it being a global public site, and anyone can upload to it. 1000 downloads later, all of which worked, or didnt work but never had a negative effect, I was caught feeling stupid when I seen what this little pointless program did to my computer.
Defender didn't detect it, Mcafee 8.0i enterprize (4909 dat 5100engine) didn't detect it.
When I executed this file it popped up a notepad window with
"Hello! Upon reading this message your computer is starting to shut down. Your Data Link Library is going to destroy, all your files say goddbye... Did you know that some programs are cute and stealth like this, amagin isn't it...
ARE YOU READY TO THIS DISASTER!!!
Very Importain Reason Unless Shutdown"
Mean while my computer was running with CPU 100% and the hard drive chugging away. It seems that it deleted what was in my root directory (c:\) most of the contents of c:\windows and c:\windows\system32.
Before submitting this I verified this file does what I'm explaining by duplicating it on a old beatup xp laptop I use for testing stuff. the program seems to run some command in a hidden cmd window. I was able to kinda stop the program the second time around cause I was prepared for it.
I was not sure where to post this sorry if I picked a bad place, but I feel it is importain for the whole xda community that we eradicate this file and any ones like it from the ftp site..
Only good that seemed to come from this is, I dont have time to worry about fixing the Ipaq 6515a that been driving me nuts for last 5 weeks casue I cant seem to get a radio stack to flash back to the unit, cause I get rebuild one of my systems again... anyways this site and community of modivated good thinkers has to be one of the best groups of people I've seen work together on the net... .. (everyone very helpfull as long as you not have a HP IPAQ 6515a phone needing a gsm stack flash) ..
All the information on all the other HTC phones that I have has been very accurate and plentiful! Thank you all!! (not the person who uploaded HTC Atom Unlocker.exe to the ftp site..)lol

Thanks for info.
I confirm this. very nasty little proggie.
I did a look inside this file, it said
Demo Version. This application created with Unregistered version of Quick Batch File Compiler. Visit http://www.abyssmedia.com for more info.
So, I guess itself is just a nasty batch file. Can't get details of the code though.
I've renamed the file with a .DANGER.DONOTUSE at the end.
Yup, I know it's cheeky request...
I run a website called the The Beebotron which lets you Listen Again to any BBC broadcast.
I've had some feedback in this link: here from someone who is having difficulty using my site with a Universal.
Could some kind soul with an HTC Universal please try my site and see if it works on your PDA?
I'd appreciate this, and would be immensely grateful for feedback on this thread - it's just as important to me to know that it doesn't work as to know that it does!
Thanks in advance,
Kronalias
It doesn't work for me. I get two messages. The first one is about security and says -
'Running a system command on this item may be unsafe.Do you wish to continue?'
On accepting the risk, I get another message:
' the file rtsp: (path etc) can not be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components can not be found.
If I try to approach the page through the google mobile proxy, all the links are simply text and not live links to the urls of the files.
Hi evilv
Firstly, thank you very much for taking the time to have a go, and the reply.
The message: 'Running a system command on this item may be unsafe. Do you wish to continue?' is due to Mr. Gates and M$ software which, in this instance, is errmm wrong. It is caused by PIE (Pocket Internet Explorer, IE Mobile, or whatever the current vogue name is) wanting to pass a URL to kick off the appropriate program - which depends on the last few bits of the URL. E.g. if the URL ended in .wma then the Windows Media Player would start. In the case you’ve very decently had a go at, then the URL would have ended in either .rm or .ra – both of which kick off the Real Player.
Secondly, I should have warned people about this message, and I apologise abjectly for not having done so.
On to the next bit… Although you get that message on your Universal, you don’t get it on a PC (I don’t know why, life is sometimes like that…).
Forget the google mobile proxy – that just isn’t going to work.
Could I please presume upon you one more time? Would you please try the same thing on your PC? The reason I ask is that if you try it on your PC and it fails then there may be something getting in the way and stopping you receiving this link in your country (I don’t know where you are). This, theoretically, could be the BBC or your ISP… The end result is that if my site doesn’t work on your PC then it’s definitely not going to work on your Universal. However, if it *does* work PC-wise, then I may have a problem with Universals…
Finally, for any Universal-owner lurkers out there who may not be registered on this board, if you would like to help me and report back whether you find my links work or not then would you please email me at kronalias [@AT] gmail [.DOT] com (I’m trying to avoid spam, so I’m sure you know what to do to get the right email address). If you want to keep it short then just a message ‘ok’ or ‘no go’ would *really* be appreciated.
Thanks again evilv
Cheers, Kronalias
PS Apols, I should said that you should be connecting wifi (unless you have another way which works, in which case please tell me!) and I should have included the Beebotron Lite site for PDAs (also works on PCs), which is here.
It works on my PC. I think you have a problem. The error message I mentioned above may be of some help.
Thanks for that evilv - I suspect that you're right and my site just isn't going to work with Universals. Oh well...
Works perfectly on my Universal using Opera
Works on mine O2 Exec with Opera.
Thank you very much to PC_Arcade and Yen for the feedback – I’ll update the compatibility list on the website mentioning Opera browser works for these PDAs.
A quick reply to evilv, who tried hard and whose feedback I really appreciated. Do you fancy having a go with Opera? Their website is here
Cheers, Kronalias
Hi,
i decided to post a thread cause i got a problem i can't figure out and i can't find any solution by STFG.
The fact is, when i plug/unplug my Touch HD via USB on my computer, every time it opens an explorer window.
When i used XP, it opened "c:\documents and settings" at each plug/unplug.
Now i'm on seven ultimate x64, while i thought it would wipe out the problem, it now opens an explorer window at c:\windows\system32...
I managed to kill all unnecessary processes but matter still occurs.
I uninstalled every programs that i suspected such as CERegEditor (from my PC), Advanced Configuration Tool and HD Tweak from my Touch HD.
I also searched the registry for CERegEditor keys, deleted them, and also tryed a search about c:\windows\system32 but it's meaningless considering the tons of answers.
Now i'm stuck and don't know how to resolve this sneaky bug.
If you have advices/answers, you're welcome.
Thanks.
ps: please excuse my crappy english ^^
nobody's have a clue ?
your english is perfect.
I'm wondering if you could have downloaded a program that has a virus on it. I'd try backing up your pim data using google or myphone, and then wiping the phone (hard reset) and possibly storage card.
Hopefully you have copies of all your programs etc backed up elsewhere and i'd scan your computer, using Kaspersky...just use one of the trials.
Thanks
I'm quite sure (but i can fail) that i've no virus on my PC, maybe on my touch hd but i'll scan it.
I forgot to mention that i also upgraded the touch hd firmware by the last one there's on HTC website and it didn't change anything related to this problem.
And i use kaspersky internet security or eset smart security (not both at once of course) on all of my computers
Thanks for your reply !
Hello XDA members!
I installed the leaked WinPho 8 SDK, and (as OndraSter said in an another topic) the ROM images are VHD files.
Currently, I can only open and mount Flash.vhd. The other 3 is not valid VHD.
I have found lots of REG files inside this and will try to unlock, but there is a tons of reg.
Found changes from 7.5:
There will be new ring- and alert tones
Power Point Presentations can be view in Portrait mode
Windows Live renamed to Microsoft account in account manager
If you set password you:
dont get a new "window" to set the password, just expand screen downwards
you can show the typed caracters
Charging while turned off?
I found some interesting files in boot partition:
battery_100.bmpx
battery_255.bmpx
battery_500.bmpx
battery_755.bmpx
battery_1000.bmpx
battery_charge_normall.bmpx
battery_errorr.bmpx
battery_inside_empty.bmpx
battery_plug_100.bmpx
battery_plug_255.bmpx
battery_plug_500.bmpx
battery_plug_755.bmpx
battery_plug_1000.bmpx
ffuloader.bmpx
mobilestartup.exe
pluggedin_battery_loww.bmpx
resetphone.bmpx
resetphone.exe
unplugged_battery_loww.bmpx
I live in a strong suspicion that new Windows Phone 8 devices can be charge without booting complete OS (becouse of EFI, maybe).
I cannot open bmpx files, becouse I could not find any program to do this.
Hidden video
Found an interesting video in emulator.
I have no idea what is this.

They are actually valid, those are differencing disks images and Flash.vhd is a parent for them.

What's your host OS? It works fine with Hyper-V on Windows 8 RP x64

Hi using Windows 7 for host and runs vhd-s in virtual pc 2007.
I confirm all vhd works.

Can you share how exactly you did the setup
Sorry for that trouble. I can confirm ONLY that vhd-s are okay. So I can mount it. But I don't think they are usable with virtual pc
Finally, I can start the emulator (do not ask how )
I will modify the first post to tell the (maybe little) differences between 7.5 and 8.
Good Topic
I hope the experts can find more changes and inform us the new changes coming with Windows Phone 8. I doubt there will be anything substantial to inform by Microsoft, although I am expecting some surprises.
You can run flash.vhd in VirtualBox, by setting the guest OS to Windows 7 and upping the graphics memory and enabling 3d + 2d graphics acceleration.
ie shortcut sync
any sign of sync of ie bookmarks to Skydrive to then syc with desktop; also sync of recent web history?
Morning all,
I have never created an app, but decided to look into it late last year. I began work on an app around September 2014, did a little work every weekend, and haven't really touched anything since November.
I have experience with HTML, CSS etc (I can write them). I can also have a basic understanding of other codes such as PHP, JavaScript, Java, C etc - basically, enough that I could take some code and edit it to suite.
I was hoping that creating an app would a) help grow my current business and b) give me a new challenge to learn new code.
Anyway, I'm really stuck on what to do. I downloaded Eclipse at home, but my laptop is on it's last legs. I have been creating the app at the office, using Adobe Flash Builder 4.7. I read a few tutorials, and downloaded some sample apps to learn from (as part of some of the tutorials). However, none of them have what I want.
My App Idea
So, enough waffling on, I'll try and explain my app without giving away what I want to do.
Basically, the app will be one where users can enter an error code, and press search. The result would be a page showing the description of the error code, and then what the solution is to fix it. There is then potential to add a "buy this part from" link which will suggest suppliers to visit.
So, as an example, let's say a user got a Blue Screen error code on their PC of "ABC1234". They would enter that code into my app, and the result would say something like:
Code: ABC1234
Description: RAM Error - overheating
Fix/Solution: Replace RAM
What I Have So Far
Other than a couple of test files that I've been learning with, I don't have anything solid in terms of an app. What I do have though is an Excel file with 889 error codes and what each code means.
What I Need
So, I guess what I need is either:
some help/guidance on how to create an app that in it's simplest form is a home page with a search box, and then 889 pages in the background that return depending on the searched error code.
or, someone willing to help me develop such an app
Firstly, download Android Studio - Don't use eclipse anymore
Secondly, here is a tut on using an older version of Android Studio
Have a go, see how you end up. Let us know, if you're really needing help, ask here again
Thanks,
I'll have to try that once I get home as the IT Administrator at work has to vet everything that gets installed.

Thanks sir but do we have a highly compressed Android Studio? 800mb+ is such a big file to download.
Like minooch said, install an IDE, understand how it works and then try some tuts on Internet to learn how Android works. What you want to do isn't really hard, you'll manage quickly to do it but you will be prouder if you do all by yourself.
Some hints : Don't go coding directly, try to organize your project (data structure, classes, methods) before starting to code. On a small project, it's not as important but if you start doing things well now, you'll thank yourself in the future

Hello.. You just cannot make a app like for such kind of work. You have to make make a website server for the same and then make a app for it. I know a technique for such kinda work.Web crawling us your answer. If you could setup a website for that then I can make a app for that easily within two days. Inbox for any further information or quote back

You need the JDK. Please read the instructions on the download page. Under the section 'Requirements'
