how do i get this engine started again... is it a win7-bug with that 'old' one.. please dont etll me that i need an xp again, just changed all my systems...

Hi!
Is it an XDA Mini?Because that's a Magician,not a Charmer.
I read it,you don't want to install XP,but I think you have to find someone with a PC that runs XP and try to flash your device from bootloader mode.
BR
Scootie

Scootie is right it is a Magician.
Look in the forum for that device.
(I know that the last post is a littlebit old but I say it again to translate it into German too)
Scootie hat recht beim XDA Mini handelt es sich um den HTC Magician.
Suche bitte is seinem Forum nach ROMs.

I'm afraid you are different because you don't read. You will find the answer to all your questions in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383904
Well, I read a lot and spent a couple of hours yesterday. But ok, I give it another try before I beat the sh** out of that bloody peace of T-Mobile sh**.
Try flashing using your MicroSD, that should work. HTH
Kannst Du mir sagen, was die microSD damit zu tun hat?
Ich habe fast das Gefühl, dass das ROM nochmal modifiziert wurde. Ich teste das gleich alles nochmal unter Vista.

I'm going on and on...
Last thing, KaiserUnlocker.exe
I've installed a new ROM, "NoThrills WM6.1 GER V3". Great, all the T-Mobile sh** is gone
But my Kaiser is still an ordinary PDA
I thought, the new ROM would solved my problem, launching the KaiserUnlocker.exe. But it didn't. Please take a look at my 3 pictures.

That's because KaiserUnlocker.exe must be run on your windows PC, not on your PDA.
You have to connect your PDA to your computer and then run the Unlocker-Tool on your windows PC. HTH.
WTF???
I'm so damn stupid
Thank's a lot!!!
Unlock Radio fails, incompatible device!
Step 1, Flash Hard-SPL fails, so I put Hard-SPL without KaiserUnlocker on the Kaiser. No Problem, flash successfull.
But why that incompatible device?

Hi MvSt so if you got a code to set free sim cards on your device well...!
Are you german? you can speak in english as well cause I dont know german but...
i can tell you that every ROM Original from carriers from every carrier has itself stuff (I dont like it) and you cant get a WM5 SE phone edition original...
There are some old builds custom roms for wm5 but you need to CID sim unlock your G4 device carefully to get a vanilla Wm5 without problems ok?
Please go to G4 forum maybe there some people can speak in german and told you how to do all this steps... and please please put all your info like me to help you very good ok?
and read read read i recomend you a lot and ask too.
hope i can help you if you have question.
MvSt
All official roms have their own splash screens and softwares included in the rom,if you want rom without carrier's branding than look for custom build wm6.1 roms.
Well,as you say its a G4 device,you'll first have to apply SoftSPL or HardSPL for upgrading all these roms,read about SoftSPL or HardSPL in the G4 sub forum and just to start off check out this latest wm6.1 rom in German Language :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399414
Is he CID Lock free?
Forgive my terrible German language, it is translated by Google. First, you need HardSPL, to CID unlock your phone (this is free software). Then you can flash any ROM that says "G4 Safe" or "No IPL/SPL."
@zabardast:
You can actually just flash the splash screens. It's very cool! See this thread for instructions and a lot of samples. I love the little red devils, so I put that one on my phone.
Verzeihen Sie meine schreckliche deutsche Sprache, es ist übersetzt von Google. Erstens können, benötigen Sie HardSPL, zu CID entsperren Ihr Telefon (dies ist freie Software). Dann können Sie jeder Flash-ROM, die besagt, dass "G4 Safe" oder "Nein IPL / SPL."

YES ! true,you can only replace the splash screens as you wish and all those are beautiful screens,no doubt,grrrrr8 effort put in there.but here the guy want to change his WWE OS to German lang,lol
As i now know my MDA is nod CID free.
After a lot of read, i tryed to unlock it, but the programs i tryed won't work under MS Vista.
And without an unlocked CID no flashing....
Know i will try another way. I will try to work with an updatet ROM from T-Mobile, wich i can flash under Vista.
I'll try to delete the T-Mobile branding.
Why this way?
After update and reboot my MDA, it takes 3 seconds and than the T-Mobile branding will start to work. It installs some *.cab files and more.
So, i'm thinking, if i can delete this files, no branding will apear after an update, and i have a clean wm5 on my MDA.
(sorry for my english, but it is a long time ago i have to use it )
NONONO

Dont do it Men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wait a second... what does ypu will do... even if it can be erased symply its a mistake to try delete a boot file!
Im not sure but maybe is the same in XP:
God damn it has to much files this folder (windows folder..... or root) delete are you sure... then the windows restart by itself after a minute on.
Its better that try to search a xp Men!!!!
Thats why Brickes your PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, ok, ok.
I'll don't do!
So, after search the Web i found a stable german WM6.1 and a stable wm5.
Now i will try to CID unlock with Vista (a howto i found) otherwise i found a XP computer i can use.
And in case of brick i downloaded an original T-Mobile wm5 and the last update.
When it works i will descirbe how i got it.
If not..... i will take my MDA Vario as door holder in future

As your phone is G4,it cannot be CID unlocked,it can only be upgraded through SoftSPL or HardSPL .These methods don't work on vista,do it on WinXp.

ROUBLESHOOTING TIPS:
- read the instructions.
- read the instructions.
- read the instructions.
- if you get connection error in RUU after the device goes to tricolour screen, then try a different USB port, also do not use USB hub, you can also try rebooting your PC, and can try using another PC. read the thread for even more tips that I don't remember now. also you can try unticking advanced network functionality in start menu / settings / connections / usbtopc applet.
- if hardspl EXE won't run, and you are on vista, try to right click it and use "run as Administrator" option
- if SSPL-Manual.exe or enterbootloader.exe fails to run (says missing component or similar), try a hard reset of the device.
it work!
1- have you made Hard SPL first?
2- Have you try with SDcard method?

[HELP] clean german stock rom as nandroid backup needed

if anybody can help, i desperately need a (clean) german stock rom as nandroid/clockworkmod zip file.
my USB port is borken and lg told me they won't accept the device for repair with a custom rom installed.
as USB doesn't work, i can't use nvflash or whatever to flash the original rom.
and yes, i checked & reinstalled all drivers, cleaned the usb port for possible grit, rebooted all the pc's i'm trying to connect to ... as far as i can tell, the data connection is borked physically (loading still works).
any help is highly appreciated!

Wrong section nothwithstanding, you are in a Catch 22 situation.
Even if you were to get a *clean* nandroid backup (which you won't get, since the recovery partition has to be different to make a nandroid backup to begin with, so you'd have to also find the exact recovery-version for the ROM and replace the one in the backup), you wouldn't be able to flash the proper baseband, as that can only be done via smartflash (or possibly nvflash) which requires USB.
So let's try something else first, ok?
What happens if you remove the battery, and hold vol-down while plugging in the USB-cable?
Hello ::Trym,
thanks for your fast reply/help.
I do get the software update logo, but smartflash does not recognize the device (means, the com port stays blank).
LGUnity drivers are up to date. As i have a win7/64bit system, i tried this also with drivers included in the 'LGDriver.exe', same result.
kind regards,
albert

Thanks, that what was I wanted to know, so far. Smartflash requires a special set of drivers you can download from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008070 (first post, "smartflash drivers". Please disconnect the phone, install those, reboot your computer and start the phone in smartflash mode again.) If we're lucky you'll get a virtual com-port recognized.
hi trym,
i unistalled the other drivers, installed the ones from the post, but unfortunately, still no com port is recognized ...

Dang, I'm afraid that was our last hope. I find it so very very strange that everybody who has usb-problems are still able to charge, in other words just break the signalling-pins and not the power-carrying ones. Just doesn't sit well with me, you'd think that everything would break, right?
I'm sure you've done this already, but I mention them anyway, to be on the safe side:
o Connect directly to motherboard, not via a hub or a case-port.
o Use another cable, preferably a short, unused one (to get as much pressure on the pins as possible.)
o Don't use any kind of overclock.
o Cool down the phone before trying again. (Not in a freezer, mind you, just take out the battery, leave the cover off and give it a healthy airing outside.)
...and anything else you can think of. To be honest I think there's little else to do. You may simply have to play very very stupid and see if the service-center bites. Good luck.
well, as i still have the original 218 baseband, at least i'd like to have the right rom on the device before sending it in:
so again:
does anybody have the possibility to provide me with a nandroid/clockworkmod backup of a german stock rom?
this would really be a great help!
thanks in advance,
albert
you phone will be sent not to LG in germany but LG support send you sending slip to send your phone for repair/replacement to www.w-support.de. And may I know which rom are you running currently?
And you do not need German Specific thing, any official will do, just make sure it be official LG rom. And dont worry about CWM recovery, LG will not even look at it, what support do is try to Flash phone again by using their computer, they dont use recovery.
And also check which version is latest for you by replacing 0000000000 with your EMEI in following link, and post link you get of kdz over here.
Check Latest Version
hello bhanvadia ,
thanks for the info.
i'm runnuing the current CM7 nightly.
when inserting the IMEI into link you provided, it returns the following KDZ links:

Verdammt...hab dich zu spät gelesen. Hab gerade heute mein LG komplett neu aufgesetzt und dabei auch mit nvflash die deutsche 10d aufgespielt. Ich hätte dir ein Nandroid machen können
Das tut mir wirklich leid

Big trouble after installing omnia driver x1,hardreset-HELP PLEASE!!!

i have a big problem with my X1...i installed the omnia graphic driver it was ok but not that good...i thought when i uninstall this cab,there is no graphic driver anymore,so i started spb backup to make a backup to get the old settings back..then i made a restart...
after restart windows mobile starts strange and...
the graphic looks to small,hard keyboard doesnt works,he doesnt find the storage card anymore so 90 % of my programs doesnt work
i made a hardrest per settings- delete 1234 (it worked)cause with the normal hardreset i just came to bootloader
i was happy and thought the problem would be solved windows starts normal ... i made the backup from sd card ...BUT
i had installed f secure antitheft since a year...f secure want to have my normal password after the backup...i tried to login and it failed...he doesnt accept my normal password anymore and f secure support cant sent me a message to the phone to unlock it (no phone reception after a hardreset)
NOW:
when i try to make a hardreset by pressing the softkeys and power i just came to bootloader..when i start the phone normal i just came to the f secure screen and password failed
AAAAAAAAA I NEED YOUR HELP GUYS
Use word "make backup" more carefully. I can't get what you exactly did.
When you uninstall cab, all its files are deleted and settings restored. That's how it should be in case of omnia driver. Check if this value looks like this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\D3DM\Drivers]
"LocalHook"="d3dm_ati.dll"
But... have you tried to use phone without restoring backup? Or restoring it, but partially?
1. tryed a normal hardreset (softkeys and power button) but i just came to the bootloader-nothing else happens
2. hardreset per software Start>Settings>System>Clear Storage then enter the number 1234 ok that worked
3 windows starts normal
4.i started spb backup from sd card to get all the settings,progs,dokuments back
i made a backup in september that worked
5. the tool starts,after the restart f secure anti theft starts and ask for password
but it doesnt accept my password anymore so i cant use my xperia
6. i dont know how to hardreset my phone right now,cause i just came to bootloader or to the f secure password
doing a hardreset but bootloader starts? that's very unusual and probably a premiere...
reset in winmo-settings isn't the same as a real hardreset, so it's no surprise it didn't fix your problems.
are you doing it exactly like this?
- power off your phone
- take it in both hands and press the silver keys
- keep them pressed
- press the power-button shortly (as if normally booting the phone)
- i hope you are still pressing the silver keys? (not the power-button)
- patiently wait, keeping the silver buttons pressed
- a white screen should show up, with instructions
- btw, you can now release the silver keys
for a little moment comes the white screen
loading
"no image file"
then it goes back to the bootloader
kovs110
spl-0.78.0000
MicroP1-787
MicroP2-787
Serial
google found this:
"The screen is showing that ou haven't doin' hardSPL, you should do it before flashing ROM. You can read @ XPERIA X1 Developer's sticky note about that. Good luck!
Aftyer you have succeed in hard-SPL will show (If I'm not mistaken it) 0.78.Ollinex (not SPL-0.78.000)"
so i have to find out how to hardspl my xperia,if this a solution
and the guys from f secure anti theft support cant help me
that's normal bootloader-behaviour without kovsimg.nbh on sdcard and no usb-cable attached. so far, so bad.
assuming you ARE trying to do a hardreset as described above (you didn't answer my question) and are not entering bootloader by pressing power - vol-down...
what have you done with your system?!
flash stockrom.
(and btw, you have stock-spl, so don't try to flash a custom-rom)
so i have to find out how to hardspl my xperia,if this a solution
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
no, hardspl is for flashing custom-roms. it has nothing to do with doing a hardreset. but at least you're using search...
mal auf deutsch..
ich halte die silbernen tasten gedrückt,drücke 2-3 sekunden lang power,dann kommt der bootloader dann kurz
loading
"no image file"
und wieder der bootloader
mach ich es genauso wie du es beschreibst ,beide silber tasten gedrückt halten,power kurz antippen,die silbertasten gedrückt halten ,dann kommt kein weißer bildschirm sondern er fährt normal hoch vom sony ericsson symbol bis zu diesem f secure passwort scheiß
okay, then flash stockrom. (no hardspl needed for that)
i don't know HOW you've done it, but you messed up your system real good.

you do realise that this makes no sense at all?!
what now, does it enter bootloader or does it power up normally until the password-prompt?!
but doesn't matter anyway.
flash stockrom and hope that it brings everything back to a working order.
..when i hold the two silver buttons and press power for one second...nothing happens..system starts normal till the f secure password comes
when i hold the silver buttons and the power button long,i came to
bootloader
"no image file"
bootloader
now i search a thread "how to flash stockrom on xperia x1"
and try my best to solve this ****
"silver buttons" - are you talking about the silver buttons on the side of the phone?
because i'm not, i'm talking about the ones below the screen...
oh mann...yes that works...i did a hardreset ^^
the buttons below the scree are black on my xperia x1 and my back cover is chrome-custom made^^
now we will see if the backup stuff works
dude, that's... now come on - seriously?!
you know, forum rules forbid me to write what i really WANT to write...
it works it works...i made a backup without f secure and everything is back
just wimospeed doesnt works. it is on 672mhz but in the device info on 528mhz..maybe i find a solution for that,cause its a little slow right now
BUT
thanks caliban,thanks ultrashot
3 days trouble gone
well, changing speed in sys-info is easy. all you have to do is hexedit nk.exe.
dude, it's not supposed to change. you're fine, everything is right as it should be.
if you run wimospeed.exe, it will show you the real current speed.
edit:
bit of advice, 672 mhz is tricky on x1, kinda on the edge. there are some devices which can run it stable, but for most 652 is max (this is hw-dependant). it doesn't freeze right away, but you might notice some strange behaviour like app-freezes, freezing after 2 days or sudden file-errors. if that occurs, see if it goes away with 652 mhz.
so try it, maybe you're one of the lucky few.
hm i thought settings-info would show the actual prozessor speed when i change it in wimospeed but
prozessor:MSM7200A-528mhz
Speicher:200.73mb
i don't know why you thought that, but it's static.
hardcoded in nk.exe. one can change it, but that includes cooking your own rom, know what you're doing and hex-edit.
