Hi all, these PDA gadgets is all new to me so I thought I would start with something quite cheap (in case I am too thick and cannot follow)..
So I got this XDA but i can't really find any use with it.. Most webpages i come across saying that its in-compatible and also the pre-loaded MSN messenger saying that it won;t work with that version( then why on earth is that pre-installed?) also the webmessenger again is not working... nor the ICQ... So.. what exactly can i do with it??
bit fustrating really..
Sorry if my questions have been covered but doing a search and seems that everything is too techy like different ROM and things that I do not seemto understand too well..
Thanks in advance..
ms have a update of messenger which is required
to be installed because the version of messenger in the rom
is OLD
re webbrowser.
Use a new browser, ou multie or tweak2k to change broswer's 'id' so it's seen as internet explorer for compatibility.
V
hmmmm.. ok ... cheers for the info.. now the next question is.. How and what do i need to update??
which Rom can help me to browse?? Also i guess there is no way out about the messenger then.,...??
thank you
as i said ms have an update you have to run to get messenger working
if you get a newer rom it may not be necessary though
can you tell me if that update is downloadable and where??
or what is the version called?
thank you so much
it's always the last place you look

Hi, I have a Fuze, and im in the search for the best ROM , im testing a few roms (3 already in 2 days) and in 2 of the previous roms i've tested the phone let me use/setup my Hotmail account on the MAIL tab of TF3D, but the current ROM doesnt. Also i think i had a Messenger on both of the other roms but this one doesnt, so im thinking it has to do something with that.
Do you guys know anything about this?
what do i need, and were do i find it.
THANKS i Hope you guys can help me!
BTW: I really search before posting but didnt actually found the answer, maybe i dont know how to use the search!??
Some Roms include the things that are missing in other Roms. Most of the time you can find the missing cab files in the thread that you got the Rom from. The one that does the windows live is called windowslive....cab
Ok, I think this CAB, works:
10.6.34.0800 - LATEST
its located on this TOPIC :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334621&highlight=windows+live
OK, i test it, and it works, i hope this Topic helps anyone...
Hey guys and girls and devs ....
Im shure you who've got msn messenger have all used the native windows live messenger in rc30 with droidsans IM fix for non us tmobile sis (Makes it use data insted of sms) and have all noticed how amazing it is compared to ebuddy and buddymob for connection ?
Well i found this website http://www.droidsans.com/content/MSN-with-non-T-Mobile-G1 And its the file that made us able to use it as part of tweak tools by droid sans... well i was hoping seeing as the file used is .odex if theres anyway of creating something new like this for the newer builds with built in IM?
xda is a place full of amazing devs, i wouldnt know where to start so please dont flame but i would love for an answer, i know its not always that simple tho, but please... i would love it and im sure many other msn users would too
Thanks guys

Hi guys,
Sorry if this has been asked and is a really obvious answer, but I've used the search function and I can find things saying "Yeah, great idea", but nothing that has actually been done to download and installed.
I've got an HTC HD2/Leo and I'm looking for a Facebook tab for the Sense/Manila 2.5 interface. A friend of mine said there is a mod available, but I just can't find it anywhere!
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks
never heard of it, but it sure will be nice to have it
only twitter tab
Never seen such a tab and dont know how effective it would really be..

I think it would be awesomely effective. I don't use twitter but I can totally see the benefit of the tab. I'd like to check my friends' updates like I check my text messages. The integration with my contacts is excellent, but I'm left craving more interaction. I'm still a little surprised that this hasn't been implemented before now by the OEM directly.
Anyway, add my +1 to this request. Snoogans.
I must confirm, that the first HD2 divice I had, really integrated FB in manila tabs. The second which I bought from T-mobile (after sending the first back as the second was better "deal"), unfortunatelly did not. Nor have any WM upgrade such tab involved since then. So I am also wandering if it would be possible to find it at least officially. And as e.g. the TV can be integrated in Manila (which is result of XDA inventions, I think it must be possible to solve the problem otherwise as well.
Thanks for help too.
HI can anyone tell me where to get new skype from 2.07 rom ???
thanks in advance.
You won't find anyone with it here. The best solution is to simply flash to a ROM that has it.
I have so much data on phone can't backup all of it so dont wana change rom for time being........
Im not sure where to grab the version of swype that has been extracted from the 2.07 rom... i am trying to find it myself!
The swype cab created from the version ripped from the Samsung Omnia 2 is all over the web though... google should bring up a couple of places to download it from.
Does anyone know of any differences between the two versions?

You will have to search in the underground... Extracting the software and offering it as a cab is clearly not wanted by the creators and owners of the software. Offering links to warez is completely against xda rules.
The difference between the 2 might be some more language support, and that the HD2 version was made for HD2, as simple as that. I think it still might be an option to flash a ROM which carries it on board - or, at least, as long as this is tolerated.
Maybe in the close future, HTC will bring another ROM update which offers this great piece of software. Or, as stated otherwise, Swype might decide to make a retail offer at some time. If they do at a decent price, I believe they could do great business - as seen with other products, at unreasonably high prices, you won´t sell big, but at fair pricing, you can succeed.
I cannot find the new version anywhere!
If anyone has a link or would like to email it to me that would be very much appreciated!!

I had the same thing, only installed yesterday so didn't do much checking of the phone. Quite a few problem were caused by the T-Mobile version . Data connection is screwed and all email passwords needed to be reset and my Wifi password are also gone lol. Did some reading online as well and quite a few other people have experienced the same problems, some have even had to HARD RESET to get their phones working correctly, fortunetly for me just uninstalling the CAB and giving the phone a few minutes resolved my Data connection issues , will put back on the Omnia version and leave it at that for the time being.
So I advice using the newest version of Swype with EXTREME caution!!!!
I tried it after much hesitation... Had to do a new setup for all email accounts, data connection and wifi connection. But it seems to be fine now, I'll see in a few days if it stays like that.
I'm using SWYPE WVGA 3.9.10.10.5032 on my HD2 without any problems.

Had the same, but all I had to do was re-enter the passwords (and mail servers for gmail) and re-run the connection setup wizard. Now I'm fine and dandy and the software is nothing short of awesome... Supports Italian, German, French, English and Spanish; I tested all languages and it works fine
I'd say it is a crucial addition to the HD2, as I use it every day, and it makes my text input much less of a chore. It is particularly useful because of its multi-language support. I've never had any problems like those described, thankfully.
have you guys done any soft resets since the initial reset after installation? I also found the keyboard became slow to start after I played with the setting. the omnia 2 version is working better for me and with the htc skin looks awesome.

I can't believe no one else posted this...
If you overwrite the ModelID with the file provided, you are effectively telling your phone that you are now....a...tmobile hd2.
The swype keyboard has protection in it...only a tmobile hd2 will work with it.
hence why you need the modelid
now here is the kicker...
Say sprint - you run sprint tv. get an error. wanna know why? sprint asks "what phone" and your phone replies "tmobilehd2.
Same thing with prl updates...
I think you get the point...
when you overwrite the modelid, all exchange accounts - gone (sorta). Your 4 digit pin become a lockout - no pin will unlock it.
in short, bad things happen.
And this is why you always provision your phone before you set it up. part of provisioning is setting the modelid...
which is why people on mighty that forgot to provision before seting up exchange need that fix e-mails cab...
any questions?

@leepriestenator, if I don't use any provider software, I can install swype without any problem right ?
leepriestenator is correct. Thanks. As our phones are all unlock where we are, the problem is just resetting the mobile provider. It is working fine on my phone, though the phone identity is now T-mobile_Leo.
Having said that, it is a much improved version over the one in Samsung.
Hi everyone,
I have recently bought two (what i thought were) HTC Touch Diamond2. It turned out to be a generic chinese made 5358+ model phone, but it's still very cool and has all the cool features. One phone is now dead after a failed ROM update on it. I have extracted the RAW rom from the WORKING phone using PDOCREAD
237.38M (0xed60000) MSFlash
| 1.75M (0x1bf000) Part00
| 3.38M (0x360000) Part01
| 60.38M (0x3c60000) Part02
| 171.88M (0xabe0000) Part03
and now have the corresponding 4 RAW files to match above.
I want to write these back to the second phone, which i now have up and running using a Chinese version of a ROM for a T5353 running WM6.1, so I cant read anything, but i can get it connected via ActiveSync.
If i try and write the RAW files back using PDOCWRITE, i get a
ERROR: ITWriteDisk - The media is write protected.
error message, which Im assuming is because the phone is NOT CID unlocked.
so where to from HERE? How can i compile the RAW files into a compatible the BIN file (in this case called K3IMG.BIN)
OR
How can I supercid the phone to enable writing using 'pdocwrite'
Ive tried everything guys, really looking forward to you help.
Thanks!
one more thing..

How many T5358+ is out there, I mean, here, on XDA?
Hey Bloogoo, all,
I'm trying to figure out if 5358+ compatible with 5353 and 5355 firmware.
And even if not - I would like to know what other firmware is out there for our phone. Looks like some CO2 ROMs with Android started to show-up!
I've got 5358+ couple months ago and generally happy with it. So far I did not had a single crash or lockup. Battery life is fantastic compare to any other smart phone I ever owned.
My firmware is strange, that it's 6.5, but has old Internet Explorer. IE has no finger scrolling but only scroll by side bar. Another strange thing: zoom bar only works in picture viewer. I can't find another single app that can recognize zoom bar. G-sensor is very slow, It takes about 4-5 seconds to flip the screen and no other software can see it either. Other than that it is rock solid and works great.
Originally I've ordered 5355, but received 5358+ instead. The guy who sold it insists it's the same phone. Reading bits around this forum it certainly looks like it. But somewhere I've seeing mentioning that difference is the display. My posts on main thread for "CO2" left unanswered, looks like most of "CO2" phones out there are 5353s and 5355s. Under battery compartment it looks different too. And mic is in different spot. (5358+ has it on dead center, just like original BD2).
Why don't we start with posting our ROM versions?
Mine T5358+:
ROM Version R2517.7 Eng
ROM date 1/15/2010
Radio 1.07.9235
Protocol DV3.0
CPU reported MSM7200A (actually HiSilicon)
Model No. NEXPERIA SY.SOL 5209
Cheers yall!
T5358+ CONFIRMED. It is T5355 ROM compatible.
I feel lucky last Sunday. I've tired to ask about T5358+ and start flashing with different firmware (yes, risking to brick it). Every single T5355 ROM I've tried works fine. Most T5353 works as well, but some got stuck on boot splash. None of ROMs has zoom bar working, but I don't care for it.
The one in post #5, just as binary_vortex have mentioned, works, but colors are screwed-up, probably inverted. Firmware reported as :C02.001.09 from 3/02/2010. Mine T5358+ has R2518.7 Eng from 1/15/2010. It rings the bell with some info I've read on Mobile Uncle (with Google Translate) that 5358+ come with two different screens.
There are some very nice Chinese ROMs out there with WM 6.5.x and fully functional Manila. I'm yet to find same kind with English.
I actually like 6.1 better than 6.5. It feels snappier. For example G-sensor flips the screen in a fraction of a second where on 6.5 it takes over 3-4 seconds. Don't know if 6.1 is easier on battery.
Android ROMs start popping-up for 5355, but I'm yet to figure out how to install them or find one that already packaged. If anybody know - please post here.
Above is the info I was looking for a while and I'm posting it in hopes that it can be useful to owners of T5358+ who does not know where their phone fits in CO2 lineup.
Cheers yall!
hi.
thanks for confirming my problem!
will you be able to tell us where to find the roms in bin format?
Actually, which one is the less problematic for the T5358+?
You may want to take this out of Q&A to avoid it being closed as the original Q has been answered, i would post a new thread in Upgrading and Unlocking
