Got my Palm Treo 500v days ago, with Chinese Rom flashed in it, which I really hate a lot.
I dumped the chinese rom out in a nb0 format sized 74.0 MB (77,594,624 bytes), and some friend dumped a Palm Treo 500v english rom for me, and i've been trying to flash the english rom into mine.
Follows the problem: How Should I Start All This?
I tried to press down+power, and succeeded in entering BL mode, top of the screen says:EBOOT Ver:V4.0.0 ExtROM:ENG(capture see below)

wondering how, how should i flash it!!

I am sure you'll have a much better luck when you'll realize you are actually in the wrong forum, possibly even wrong website...

thx, enigma1nz, some friends tried a lot, we really need luck

You need to find a forum dealing with Palm systems, not HTC Universal or HTC overall.

yo man, I know it's a wrong-place-thread but I've solve your problems. But I didn't update the rom, I just restore a backup file of an English-rom-palm 500v in to a Chinese-rom-palm 500v. I used Spb backup and restore in normal mode. After the phone was restored with english backup file, it's display english, everywhere, everything.
But there's one problems. The default sms and mail application didnt work. Your phone still can receive mail, sms but you cant open them, and compose new or reply. So I installed threader6standard, a freeware you can google, then I can compose, send Sms as usually. I havent tried any mail application yet but I think it's ok.

Anyway try to do a search here and maybe asking again

Good luck,

hi, kkxd & orb3000, thx for your reply.
kkxd, are you from Mainland China?
I don't think you've really flash the rom, it's just a restore.
I'm wondering if you've ever checked this forum: http://www.treo8.com/bbs/forum-69-1.html, if yes, would you plz tell me your id so that i can better contact you.

Palm 500 is really a excellent product.But there is no official roms.
Anybody who can help us.
We are from http://treo8.com/bbs/forum-69-1.html

Thanks!We are in trouble.

We do need helping~~~

Neo homescreen from T-Mo Shadow?

Hi everyone, what do you say on the new T-mobile's homescreen for HTC Shadow device (http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2007/11/01/shadow-homescreen.aspx)?
It would definitely be worth having it on other phones, do you think it can be done?

As far as i know it is for Windows Mobile Standart (Smartphone) only, but can not be sure until i try it
Sure it can be done. The only thing you need is dumped T-Mobile shadow ROM. If you can get that, you can get the homescreen.
What i wanna know is if there is a reg edit to get the to take myfaves away from the first tab on the home screen so i can see the date and time there instead like in the first picture. That would great.

As written in linked article, myfaves are only enabled on T-Mo SIMcards, others see the clock instead, which is great. Now, where to get the ROM?
Let's just hope that someone will dump their phone's rom
To all shadow users: Who can dump their phones rom ?
I'm not sure how to dump my rom, but I hope someone figures it out because I hate this my fave on my homescreen. I would also like to keep the neo interface but be able to add my own apps to it...I wish I knew how to help..g
Clock instead of MyFav
Take a look here to get rid of MyFavs. I haven't tried it but the person who posted it did. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343000

Worked like a charm thanks for the link.....g
If you're not on a MyFavs plan, can you still use the MyFavs on the interface as a poor-man's photo dialer to five numbers of your choosing?
May be someone could help Gottifour to dump his rom? I don't know how to do this for sure..
Indeed... A dump would be really great!
What do you guys think about the ever growing eyecandy that is being used in all different mobile devices? Is it doing something good for the usability or just eyecandy that blinds the user?
Greetings from the Netherlands,
Peter Vrenken
How about some pointers to instructions on how to dump a rom for those who might be interested.
How about this...
Try using this tutorial on the xda xiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
as far as I know, you can use itsme's tools for all htc devices. Sorry that i can't try this myself on the shadow. I have the t-mo MDA and an ancient mpx200
If anyone gets this to work, please post the dump online
I think it helps to create Neo to ather devices =)

quickgps?

hey guys, just started working at att and i requested the tilt as my company phone. well i got it yesterday, but i am completely pda/smartphone illiterate..
and i have been skimming over this forum but it minus well have been written in chinese...
so i read that quick gps is already loaded on the phone? i went through file explorer and couldn't find it anywhere... did i over look it?
also, the phone seems really laggy... from the screen switching from potrait to landscape... and there seems to be alot of lag in pressing the numbers on the touchscreen.
i've seen all the rom flashes and such... but is there a dummy guide to flashing the rom? do i download it onto my comp then move it over using active sync? does it matter what folder i put it under?
sorry for the stupid questions, but i tried my best to read through the threads but i couldn't seem to absorb anything...
-tj
mail me your phone, ill put quickgps on it and whatever custom rom you want..
couple of things
first off, try advanced search for the kaiser thread
second, coming from att might get you banned here... seems anyone that mentions xda on att forums gets banned
(i for one have been happy with the customer service)
there are plenty of guides to flashing, but basically you need to be careful. hook up to active sync and install hardspl, it won't look like anything happened so verify that you did it. then you're ready to flash your rom of choice. I use XDA Live, just keep in mind that flashing is risky and so you need to read read read... I'd stick with the stock rom for awhile anyway
quickgps is under programs BTW
this thread might be deleted just on the principal that there are a hundred like it
thanks for the info....
didn't know there was so much animosity between att workers and xda people...
i just work there to pay the bills and put food in the mouth... hopefully some of you know where im coming from...
also, to get my today screen to look like this....

not really interested in the bee in the background but more the layout of the today screen... im guessing that would require a rom flash? it just looks so much cleaner then the standard today screen...
-tj
To make your screen look like that, background excluded, all you need to do is to fing HTC Home cab file and install it. You do not need to change the ROM. Search... grasshopper...er bumble bee

Dutty's Rom Version 1.65.16.25 Help

Thanks to the sire today for not reading my thread, im new to this so I would appreciate some help with this post, i have looked through the forums but cant find anything to guide me straight, so il ask again for some kind assistance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have recently after hours of reading installed the above rom to my phone, and i like the speed of it and the design thanks Dutty.
I am new to this area and was very hesitant to try the non original roms in case i bricked my phone but I seem to have done ok, I have a few slight issues with this rom and would ask the experience of the forum members for help please understand im nieve to this rom updating.
When I start my phone i have the following rom version,
R 1.65.16.25
G 25.83.40.02W
D 3.5 Dutty's
In device info is -
Build is showing as 5.2.19588 WM6.1
Radio is 1.65.16.25
Protocol Version - 25.83.40.02W
Firstly is this the right setup?
2. Is there a faster or better rom available (Dutty's) that would be more compatible with the tytn 2?
3. Is the radio compatible with this version if not how do I change it please and to which version?
I seem to be having some minor glitches with the setup which i will go through and see if there are any fixes.
a. under comm manager I dont have the option to turn on data connection its greyed out!
b. it tries to download emails but tells me to adjust setting although i know the email ones are 100% right, this may be because of the data connection issue how do i fix?
c. There is no HSDPA tab anymore on connections
d. When i open the start menu from today screen it shows as black or fuzzy and not the list of programs and apps until i touch it with stylus pen?
e phone reception seems to be worse can this be fixed.
f. screen freezes sometimes aswell.
if anyone can assist me with these issues i would be grateful. thanks Wayne.
2.
reason nobody has answered is because every question u ask has been answered. stop being lazy and read or the mods will give u a kick in the arse.
p.s. ofcourse radio is compatible thats why u can make calls. AND don't double post again.

Irtyp Bmyfw!

[Help] New to this, some counseling please. :)

Hi, guys!
After much waiting, begging and whatnot, I got a brand new, used Qtek S100 from a friend of mine.
Now, I've been messing around with the ROMs, and got MA_DT_WWE_DutchRetail_11200_550_11200_Ship installed.
Now, what is the ROM you guys advise me to install, to better make use of my Magician?
Of course, I'd like to not have problems with Blutooth or the camera, so what is the most stable release available,
not needing to be the most recent?
Thanks all.

Hi, simurgh.
I've tried out all cotulla rom releases and i think that the "HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3" is the best upgrade for your Magician.
of course if you wanna try windows mobile 6.5 you're gonna have to give up your camera 'cause current release of WM6.5 has its camera removed.

Thank you, Dante.
That table is just class.
I believe it really is the best option.
I'm also wondering how the configuration of sms/mms/calls go.
Any help on this as well?

"Voice Call" and "SMS" don't need to be configured.
Non of these Roms supports "MMS" configuration but you can install "MMS service pack" on WWE_03, I didn't test this service pack on other roms but i think it should work as well.
You can download "MMS service pack" from here:

Great! Now just to figure how to get my SIM contacts (solved!).
ROM installed and running nicely
