XDA 2s Upgraded to wm 5

Hey all.
For once, I upgraded to wm 5 without any problems, well so I say.
Theres a few things, that I could do with.
When I originally tried upgrading, I copied the cab files etc from the ext rom ( o2's ) and I fancy installing some of the fixes they provide, but each one is called customization tools, so each time i install one, it uninstalls the previous. Any way around this?
Also, the joypad between the green and red phone, when the dialpad is open ( pressing green phone ) I used to be able to press up to view my contacts and down to see my history. Anyway to fix this?
One last, do the developers out there. I developer software for the ppc and windows using .net and cf.net. I would like to access the sdk of the phone it's self, which I know you can use CFNET's own framework to access certain things. But if theres anything else, i'd appreciate a heads up on it?
Kind regards
TIA

Thanks qyach

hijacking my thread lol
The previous versions were complicated, you had to get device id's etc correct or your phone was useless. So I downgraded back to shipped rom and lost my ext rom auto install feature.
This one, basically backup, unlock your rom, copy a file to the correct folder and run the exe, after that it's some complicated button presses and your in.
A tip! don't set a password when it first asks you. I did this on the last rom, and it locked me out completely. Not sure if its been fixed.

Do you see notes anywhere else like in windows folder? maybe shortcut is broken.
You can reinstall notes if you want.

You have to provide more information if you want help.
Do you have a Cooked ROM? If so, who's ROM are you running.
Has it ever worked? Did you install some software, that made it stop working?
I don't think simply replacing Notes.exe will solve the problem.

Same Problem
I'm having the same problem. The Notes.exe is not working (WM6, HTC Touch Dual). I'm not using any cooked ROM, I just bought and Hard Reset the PPC 4 days ago... any ideas?

done
ok just realize that the notes application stopped working because of the update made to my device KB944326, lets hope microsoft solve that soon

If you download the DLL, just place it on your windows directory, disable HTChome first, of course, then reenable it after replacing the dll in the windows directory.

and then just tap on the weather and it'll update..
u only have to open IE once. i guess that enables it.

Just download the cab. Run it. Run IE, don't close it. To minimize it, either set your... well, to make it simple, just click on start and then click on today. Then do your thing.

One more time.
You INSTALL the CAB on the device. You don't place them on ANY folder, unless you download the dll itself. I realize that's what I said first. But that's because I didn't see his cab file.
Just run the cab file.

ok u can put the cab file anywhere..
i usually put it on my memory card.
once u run the .cab file from ur memory card.. its gonna ask u where u wanna install the file.
Memory Card
Device
Network.
ur gonna select Device.
and to minimize IE u just click on the start tab on the top left side and click on today screen.

thanks for the help. im sorry but i thought i got but i think it did when i connected to my laptop. so i just download the files and run the setup while the wing is hooked up. or do i copy the files on the wing and then run the setup? im sorry but trying to figure out how to install the on the device without putting them in a folder. well thanks for all the help

thanks for the heads up ivan, its working for me.

sprite backup to Desktop PC

Hi,
was anybody able to run a successful backup from Touch Diamond to the desktop PC using sprite backup from the CD? After I installed it on the Diamond, every time I try to run a backup on the PC, it keeps telling me that it found the PC but the sprite backup service on the PC needs to run - I am unable to find the service on the PC. Any hint would be greatly appreciated. I bought a Diamond w/o branding in Germany.
Thanks
JayZee2

Hi JayZee2
mine works perfectly. Although I am not really happy with the result of the restoring a backup - still a lot of tweaks and adjustments to do.
However - here it goes: connect your TD with the PC. On the PC activate Sprite Backup PC Manager. You'll see the Icon in the lower right menu bar. Right click on this icon to set the options and eventually start a backup or restore respectively.

Hey Sorceress, thanks so much for the quick reply!
I must be doing something really stupid, I am unable to find Sprite Backup PC Manager on my PC. All I did is I installed sprite backup which came on the CD with the diamond while I had the TD connected via USB and activesync. It then has installed sprite backup on the TD but nothing on my PC - what did I do wrong and how can I fix it?
Thanks a lot
JayZee2

Here we go...
here the file you need: click here.
install and follow the instructions. btw - it's the application from the CD.
let me know if it works.
Cheers

Many thanks Sourceress, this worked
Obviusly HTC only puts the phone client on the CD in Germany.
Bye
JayZee2

Thanks from me as well
I couldn't download the sprite backup from HTC - so I am grateful for your file.

I had the same problem with the german CD.. thank you verry much

The same problem in Denmark. The CD only comes with Sprite for the phone. Strange.......

Sourceress, I have the same problem here but the yousendit link says the download limit has been reached for this file. Could you please resend it so I can also download the file?
Thanks in advance!

I had an operator locked phone, now unlocked and reflashed with a cooked ROM, so far so good.
Now I need to make a backup using the HTC Sprite tool, but the CD coming with the phone contained a operator specific set of files, and when I went to www.htc.com to get the WWE edition, I couldn't register due to the fact that my S/N is connected to the operator in question...
So now I'm hoping that some kind person with a WWE edition of the Sprite tool (PC + CAB fles) would be kind enough and make these download'ble
Thank in advance!

Help needed reverting back to WM6.1

Hi, if anyone could please help me i would be gratefull, i recently purchased a D2 but its already preloaded with WM6.5 rom version 2.53.405.5 (76952)WWE, But i really wanted WM6.1 as, among other things, i wanted to use the handwriting rec.
does anyone know what stock rom to reload? and where i can get it? sorry to ask such a basic question.
thanks in advance,

http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=249&cat=2&dl_id=613

thanks for that, however it seems to have just bricked the phone
thanks for that, however it seems to have just bricked the phone
it seemed to work, all the correct messages displayed
but......
now all that happens is it turns on, shows the touch diamond2 screen, then resets
it has the following text in red in the lower left hand corner
r 3 . 43. 25 .19
g 61. 20t. 25. 10U
d 1. 39. 47382
does any one have any ideas?

Try to hard reset.

tried that before i posted
and a soft reset, and another hard reset to be sure,
i searched the forum but couldn't find any reference to that type of error either.
any ideas on how to retrieve it from paperweight mode?

Download stock ROM for your region
Unpack it with WinRar or TotalCMD
Rename RUU_signed.nbh to topaimg.nbh
Copy topaimg.nbh on your SD card
Enter bootloader (hold volume down and turn on phone) and follow instructions
edit:I guess for wm 6.1 you need lower version of SSPL

thanks dude, i used the bootloader to reinstall the latest rom from HTC.
Topaz_S2_HTC_WWE_2.53.405.5_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.44etc.25.35_4.49.25.91_Ship
my phone is no longer a brick however i am back to square 1 in that i still have wm6.5, and i want 6.1
ive tried to reflash with the older rom fighter7139 suggested
RUU_Topaz_HTC_WWE_1.39.405.3_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.20t.25.10_3.43.25.19_Ship
but it gives me the same rebooting error.
any ideas why wont the older rom work on my phone? or if theres an alternative to that rom ?
thanks

I've loaded hardspl 1.83 and extracted the file RUU_signed.nbh and renamed it to topaimg.nbhand,
i moved it to the SD card, reflashed the phone with the 6.1 rom,
but i get the same error.
any idea on what rom i should use to update from?
or what stock spl i'd need to run this rom's version of 6.1 ?

a thought
maybe i don't even need 6.1, all i want to do is to fix two things -
1) make the sms messaging work like on the old htc devices ie diamond or tytn ie not use htc messaging
2) add handwriting recognition
- would also be nice to have the taskmanger icon, the battery icon and the original windows start menu back too, but im not dependent on them....
so i guess any rom would do that allows these functions, any help or info on this would be much appriciated

thanks for that, however that was the first thing i tried, i saw the download for the handwriting ap just after i got the phone, not knowing it didnt have it when i swapped from my diamond,
the thing is the update only works on certian AP version control builds -
the message on the site is -
Note: AP version control -> The criterion will pass if the Touch Input for Pocket is equal to Version 2.1 (Build1919.1320), or lower.
mines a higer version, which i assumed originally had to do with it being wm6.5 not 6.1,
- i have tried downloading and installing anyway but it wont load.
does anyone know how to get this update to load, or how to change the AP version control back to a lower version ?????
any help would be much appriciated.

if it matters,
i'm running Duttys HG, and ive flashed to hardspl,
i don't mind flashing back to whatever, i just really need the handwriting app

The handwriting SIP is likey hidden.
There is a reg edit to unhide, just search SIP Reg Edit and you should find it.
If I recall it was under the WM general tweaks.

thanks for that, i got the letter and block rec working, but still not the transcriber the reg key shows it should be showing, but i think the actual file may not be there,

fixed after changing the reg, and downloading the update, you then need this transcriber cab

Any luck finding a way to get 6.1 working on this phone? I just bought the Pure from AT&T as a replacement for my LG Incite that had 6.1 on it. So far I can't stand 6.5 at all. My main beef is with IE, I really like the one on my Incite vs. this one. And my other problem is with the start menu, I also prefer the drop-down style in 6.1.
Thanks for any replies or help.

Start here.
Once you unlock your phone, you can flash to anything you want.
6.5 is hands down better than 6.1, there are 6.5.219xx builds that have the drop down start menu.

Thanks Bruce!
For some reason I couldn't find a good Pure forum, so that link helps a lot.
