htc sync for dream (g1) - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey,
today i realized that there's a software named htc sync. whith it you can sync your android phone with outlook on the pc via usb cable.
the problem is that it is only available for the htc magic and htc hero.
do you know of a way to sync my g1 with this software?
thx

can someone help me? i think it would be interesting for more people - not only me!

It's in some HTC based ROMs like Hero and Rogers. Not many people use it though so many dev's strip it out. It's in Haykuro's 6.0 which is a nice HTC Rogers ROM. That ROM, like all HTC ROMs, will only work if you have Haykuro's SPL. I believe it is only in HTC ROMs and not google based ones. If it isn't in a HTC ROM you want try PMingthe dev, and they may be able to tell you how to push it back.

can you explain to me what you mean? PMingthe?

now i understood^^
you meant write a pm to the dev of the rom...
yeah i'll try it. i allready wrote to cyanogen. he's a really tough guy and i think if he's interested in this he'll do it very fast

My BAD!!!
I forgot which sub-forum i was in lol

any ideas?

I'd like to know this too. My Rogers Dream supported HTC Sync, but not with the custom ROM I have now.

can somebody help us?

no ideas? really?

Not many people want it, so it's normally pulled from ROMs. Contact the devs of Rogers/Hero ROMs and ask them how to push it back in to the build.

Anyone found anything out about using HTC Sync on the G1?
My G1 won't sync anymore with the google calendar and I tried literally everything (including wiping my G1, installing a new ROM, completely deleting the calendar on the G1 as well as the google calendar - nothing helps at all). Therefore I'd love to have a local sync for my calendar...
Any news would be greatly appreciated.

Please refer to my earlier post on page one. HTC Sync requires PC software and files cooked in to the ROM. It's not included in google source ROMs, only HTC ROMs like Hero and Rogers, but hardly anyone uses so it's removed from most ROMs.

Thanks. So I'll have to find out how to get these files back into Cyanogens ROM, which I use on my G1...
If anyone has done this yet: feel free to post a short how-to

Since it's HTC's app, it's highly likely that they are tied to the HTC framework, which Cyanogen no longer includes (fuggin' licensing issues :-/). A couple of people have tried on ROMs including th famework but they didn't have any luck. It could be as simple as smali/baksmali-ing the apk's but I don't think anyones tried that either. Really your only option - if you want HTC Sync - is to go with a HTC based ROM.

thank you MS_guru (forever in my good graces)
There are numerous differences b/t stock and the MS_Guru one and some of the bloatware being removed is the only positive one I can find. It has lots of problems. (i.e. market missing tons of apps, lots of problems w/ sync constantly running, media scanner running over and over, USB connction to pc is unreliable, ROM rebooting randomly,)
Huge, huge thanks to MS_Guru for getting this (it saved more than a few of us) but I agree with the need for a 100% working stock ROM.

I Think the guy is asking about shipped rom, the one the guru posted is pre-released, I know there is a difference because I got my phone shipped and there was no T-mobile sync and some software was different. I wouldn't mind getting Original "shipped" rom myself, I have some fc and loss of 3G with guru's image.

Looking at the CSC files it looks like the release ROM is JFD that may help you track it down
From what i have heard about the rom posted here.
Its a pre-release rom. We need the real deal. I cannot believe no one on this forum doesnt know any TMO support guys. To get us a firmware.

yeah, usually its the wannabe developers that flash "for the first time and hate it." I think its because you guys expect a whole new and improved system that has "everything you want."

[Q] Original Sprint HTC Hero Android 1.6 rom

Hey guys,
Been looking for an android 1.6 rom for a Sprint Hero looked through the forums but couldn't find any with links that work.
I'm just looking for an RUU thats 1.6 since the 2.1 rom doesn't work well on it.
I'm not looking for a rom that I need to root for, this is for a friend so the easiest and least risky way of going back to 1.6 or another better than 2.1 rom.
I hope I didn't miss this in the forums because I don't want to waste your time, just been trying to get this issue fixed for a while.

Roms are for rooted phones only You need rom manager, superuser, and a recovery as well.

I guess I'm looking for an RUU then, I know you can install different versions of the actual OS without doing anything special, done it many times before. I'm just looking for Android 1.6 from Sprint, not a custom one because that requires rooting it.
-Thanks
It had 1.5 originally, then went to 2.1. that's why yer having trouble finding 1.6.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=608434
hope that helps. I think it's a rootable 1.56.
Thanks! I downloaded it and will try and install if probably later today! With that ROM do I simply have to click ARU Wizard for the RUU (like the RUUs from HTC) or will I have to use other files in the folder?
Thanks again by the way.
No problem. I hope its what you were looking for.

[Q] MMS problem CDMA Hero(alltel)

This morning i decided to install a new Rom on my HTC hero. I found this ROm called sensible gingerbread it is new and i really like it, but i can't send MMS or receive them! can anyone help me with this?
Did you try reinstalling a sense base ROM and send/receive a couple of texts? Usually that fixes it up, then restore back to your previous ROM.

[Q] need help with roms and flashing?!

Okay so I've been hacking iPhones since the first one. I got my hd7 wen it was released. And I've updated to NoDo. Now...i realize this update kills chevronwp7. But I've been reading an reading all over this forum and its only half-clear to me. I have installed axebox and the update for HD7 rom unbranding. Problem: what rom do i need? There are so many and where do i get it?? I know i need the rom for the firmware before NoDo... I've been spending hours. Posting a thread is always last resort. Im not illiterate just not knowledgeable enough yet with this.
Thanks for any and all replies!
You'll first need to flash or roll back to an older ROM (either 7004 or 7008).
Then, you'll need to follow this thread

Get on a PC and login to your windows live account and then check your contacts and see if they are there. When I first got my HD7 and set it up, it synched all my contacts. After I restored it and did the unlock and upgraded it, it synched all my contacts back and I didn't know it did and I ended up having all my contacts twice cause I had imported them from my similar card before realizing they had synched back from my windows live

Sorry for a quasi-hijack, but I too need help with flashing ROM's so it's highly related.
I've searched all over for almost a week, but I can't find an answer. How can you get into bootloader with unresponsive volume keys?
I've tried modding the registry entry for my phone so that I can move the HD2compatible EnterBootloader.exe files I found on this site on to my HD7, but they don't execute when I try to run them (I didn't really expect them to since they were compiled for WM6.5, but I tried all the same). Is there something similar for WP7? Or maybe does someone know how to launch the bootloader via code in an app (I have developer access to it)? I can't even hard reboot this thing without the volume keys working.
Thanks in advance!

Open up the phone and fix the volume button. Who wants a phone with a broken volume button anyway? You'll want it fixed.
