i originally had faria's wm6 on my phone, but then i wanted to try xplore core 2.0. i flashed it, but when it finished it would start. it wouldnt go past the second splash screen. i tried a hard reset using the hard keys, but when i try it, it says format failed. i have tried to reflash using bootloader using the OEM carrier roms from both t-mobile and cingular. i am having the same issue no matter what i do. if there is anything i can do to fix this.. please help me because i constantly use my wizard and i don't no what i can do without it. i really appreciate any input. thanks
im not sure what to do but i figured i'd respond just so you know people are trying to help. I've heard of the format failed problem, but im not sure what the solution was. Good luck!
What device do you have ? A G3 ?
How I fixed my Format failed problem...

I followed these steps with an SD card fresh from the package...
Drug_Store said:
...
2- Get a clean SD card (in qtek 9100 / Htc Wizard case is MiniSD) with 128MB (some people say 64MB, but I personally used a 128MB, maybe a 64MB is enough)
3- Kill (task manager) wescomm.exe (this is related with activesync installed on your PC). Insert the blank SD card on the phone.
4- Get your phone in bootloader mode. Like this : Phone powered off, press Camera button + Power On, will enter in bootloader mode (RGB screen).
5- Now connect your USB cable to your phone. And start MTTY_updateROM.exe (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/romupdate.rar). After open, on Port selection, choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and press OK. A window will open with a blank sheet.
6- Type "r2sd all" and hit enter... wait to the end (at end shows "cmd>"). On your phone screen u can follow backup progress... small bar will appear down the RGB screen.
7- Power off the phone (or remove battery), enter bootloader mode (camera button + power on) and this time RGB won´t appear right away. Will ask if u want to "download SD image", press voice dial button to agree, and writting will begin. Wait to the end. Power off and power on normally. Now your phone should be working ok. Not even needed to reflash the phone after this.
Thanks to all and hope this helps more people with this problem

Guess I'll post this...
For the record, the Core 2.0 rom ****ED my phone up too. When I tired to flash back a different rom because of all the changed **** in Core 2.0 my phone flipped out. I had to flash it 3 or 4 times to get it to even boot.
I recommend anyone thinking of tyring Core 2.0 to stay away from it unless they don't plan on changing roms after going to it.

yes, i edited it.
I believe operator error isnt something to blame on the rom. Anyone that openly drops the "F" bomb when discussing a cell phone really should get a life.

You sound like Faria...LOL!
Really, that's why I put what I did in my thread about saying "My phone is stuck in bootloader..." (remember the fillet knife?) ROM's DO NOT MESS UP A PHONE UNLESS THEY ARE CID LOCKED, THE FLASHING PC HAS ISSUES, OR BECAUSE OF OTHER OPERATOR ERRORS.
Don't let it get you down. You're doing a good work and if one or two people out of a thousand can't get it right, then they need to be running carrier ROMs, and you can stay calm and happy helping those who really need it.
See, that's not so bad now is it?

Boy, I know more about what I'm doing then most people here put together.
Your rom ****ed my phone right in the ass.
Luckily I recovered from it.
You call your Rom "stock" yet YOU CHANGED ALL KINDS OF STUPID STUFF IN IT.
Like the alignment screen graphic?
Why the hell would you do that.
Or putting on 3 different boot screens. wtf?
Oh yeah, not to mention it runs like **** before even loading any more software on it since you used the OLD WM6 build.
Don't release any more.
You're terrible at it.
kthx bye.

Nope, flash went to 100% then the phone tried to reboot and nothing happened.
I do all my flashing on that machine because it's stable and I have never had a problem flashing until the Core 2.0 rom. That is the first and only rom I have had any trouble with.

I do my rom as I please, you can't question that.
For YOU to know all roms have 3 (boot =NOT) splash screens You're just too SMARTass to notice.
You can quote multiple post in same message, in case that slipped your soo full-of-knowledge mind.
I used old WM6 build ? Please explain to me what you mean ...i am not that wize
I did not called my rom STOCK ! I called it Core . But you are probably too smart to actually even read anything.
In case you don't understand the word "CUSTOM", then let me explain it to you : I can change whatever i want in it. All of it if I like to.
Ah yeah, and i almoust forgot ... please read this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1241040&postcount=1
It's been there from day 1, just made it bigger now, so that you can see too
And next time, keep your opinions to yourself. No need for public -> "Ooh, look at me how tough I am ! " stunts.
....
whether you like it or not...
I'm confused by people who choose to post cooked ROMs in a public forum, invite people to use and comment, but them complain if the feedback it not all roses and accolades.
You may have done this for free, and many if not most, appreciate your time and effort. That being said, some have legitimate complaints and are posting them because they have experienced problems with your ROM. I’ve been reading your reaction to any negative feedback and you are highly defensive, never conceding that there may be issues to address.
All cooks say that you are not responsible if the ROM bricks someone’s device or if they have problems, and no one has asked for you to pay for their repairs or replace their devices.
There is no place for foul language or insults in such a forum. It's childish and may simply help support the complainant’s point.
If this is your reaction to complaints, then yes do us all a favor and stop posting and keep your work for your personal enjoyment and benefit.
If you can't stand the heat, then get out of the kitchen. No pun intended.
Well if it doesn't work for you then try a different ROM. I tried all the ROMs and pretty much gonna stay with Faria The Real Thing
I tried Xplore 1.0 and i had alot of troube so I dont think im gonna try 2.0. If it works dont change
Funny thing is I have flashed this ROM to my wizard 6 times, and each time something else didn't work. But let me explain...
I want a stripped version of windows, I don't do any messaging at all. And since the Explorer ROMS are known for their stability, it seemed a logical choice. So I have been using package tools, to create packages with option.XML files for each package so you can choose, what parts of the OS get installed.
But back to the point...
Each time I flashed something went wrong... Something I did, a "tmail not found warning when activesync starts", to once I got a 260(?) error once when flashing at 63% so I started it while holding the voice command button. It booted into Bootloader, I flashed it to Cingular 2.25.11 and immediately flashed back to the same ROM successfully.
There are hundreds of people Ecstatic with the Xplorer ROMs, for each one of you here complaining. I for one would think it a travesty, for a few unappreciative people to ruin it for hundreds of others. By pissing off one of our cookers. Maybe had you posted your problems here we would have been able to help you.
But please don't be so accusing, just read, and if you can't find an answer. Then ask nicely, and thank the cook for the time he spends cooking for us! If you don't like the answer you get or you decide you don't like this ROM try one of the many others...
I think this might have been covered before :lol:
Got a Wizard here that came with WM5 from o2 a few years back, its a work phone so doesnt get a massive amount of hammer but its slow, dead slow.
I just want something really small and quick, phones always on charge unless I'm out and about which isnt that much so perhaps oc'ing it might help?
I downloaded a WM6 rom by mfrazz (5.2.318(15342.4.0.01)) about a year ago and yes it looks nice and does more than the Wm5 that was on the phone to start with, but its irritatingly slow, I'm using the phone more than I was originally so it makes speed more of an issue.
I tried to flash a rom called "Wizard_19855_Clean_V1" but now I seem to have lost the phones ability to find a service.
The phones not bricked so I presume all is not lost but a quick shove in the right direction would be appreciated, the other option of course is to stick WM5 back on it if someone has a link to the latest (last?) o2 WM5 rom, then drop it down the stairs or something and get a new work phone perhaps :lol:
Nevermind, almost perfectly timed, 83% through flashing the phone with the 6r5 rom from Mfrazzz we've just had a power cut...
So, what do people recommend as a replacement to a bricked Wizard lol...
it is not dead. can be revived. well, if you want it to be.
get your power turned back on, then put it in bootloader after charging it completely and flash again.
I can get the bootloader RGB screen, have tried the solution here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276963 but get the "You didn't get the proper security level to download a specific image" error, just trying to sort that out now, phones on charge while I dig out the solution to that now, something to do with it being locked seems to be the problem, will see how far I get and then try again..
38% thru reflashing with the Update Utility File thing...
See if we can keep power in the building this time
Right, were back on WM5 thanks to the Wizard Love rom, when I try to stick mfrazzz's 6r5 on tho it gets to 99% and then fails, have tried it a few times now but with the same results..
try a release like amp(linkage) or a tnt thats known for speed. Ive been using amp's newer release for months on att's network, with strong service and considerable speed boosts over the older faria/mrfrazz roms i used
i have yet to need to oc this amp build but was a pretty avid overclocker of my older ones.
ps: im prolly going to cook/flash this rom when release 2 comes out(hopefully tonight) cleaner slate than amp

pss: if you're not.. try flashing with no sd card too
Yeah not got the SD in there when flashing, I've tried a few different ROMs now and it looks like I missing something as it still appears to be on the Wizard Love WM5 rom even though I'm trying to get it up a WM6 rom (Brightrom/Manilla UI/XM6r5)..
Will try the one you've linked too and see how that goes..
Somethings not right here, I've gotta be doing something wrong, usign shell tool it tells me that the Wizard Love rom has the following.
Externsion ROM
OS
GSM
Splash Screen
HTC Logo
Yet the other rom's I've been trying only appear to be the OS, and even though they seem to be uploading to the phone properly when i reset it it still has the Wizard Love rom on it..
I looked up an article about a smartphone that runs on both windows mobile and andriod using a special bootloader called U-boot it is an open-source boot loader try getting this on the G1 then try to get windows mobile image or something on the g1 via this bootloader. the phone I am referencing this from is the Compulab exeda their article can be found here: http://i.gizmodo.com/5131507/compulab-exeda-a-stocky-phone-stuffed-full-of-features-and-oss
Use this bootloader then tell me how you will get windows mobile
wattt!!! so basically u saying hey i dnt know if this will work but kill your fone then tell me how it work out. Btw first the bootloader have to be ported to g1 hardware
ya that guy says here do this and let me know if it works . but if im reading this right a dual boot g1?
That's what it seems like. That could mean anything really... but it has an ethernet port! Can we say insta-router/modem? How odd and cool at the same time! But if it's truly a duel mode phone, WM on Android is just a tiny step away But then again... Since the phone itself is entirely different than the G1, how will it be ported? Just a bootloader isn't gonna do it. It will have to be modified completely. It's still better than trying to port from a TyTn or something else. U boot will have to support the G1's hardware or something extremely similar (a least a HTC phone). And the WM image could be gotten from anywhere but preferably from this phone, the exeda (may be the .nbf will leak sometime or it will get a downloadable update for WM).
LOL i meant dual boot as in the "linux" flavor for nokia i was thinking... sorry but as fast as android is advancing im ready to kiss WM goodbye. But sure people will either want to throw WM or possibly a dualboot on there g1's if it is possible
I've used u-boot on many different platforms... You guys have no idea what you're talking about. This isn't something you just "put" onto the G1... it would need to be written(ported) for the G1, bring up all the hardware, initialise RAM, etc... this would replace the SPL, not the OS, so you would also have to find a way to get u-boot to load wince (I've only used u-boot to boot linux, redboot is for wince).... this thread is like all the comments on the google apps store asking app developers to write flash for the browser...
I would love to get something like this, even wondered when they will come out with it. But I do think it will be something that will have to come on the phone, not as a 3rd party app. But I do hope HTC will bring out a hybrid like this. And a Ethernet port. Holy crap, I love that!!
i have a dream...
I have a dream that one day HTC will offer the drivers to the devices they sell.. that would make every developers live easier. If they released the drivers for all the hardware u could run any OS on the dream.
I would acctually pay for that

The problem is, HTC may or may not have the rights to release the code for those drivers, even if they wanted to. Many drivers come from hardware manufacturers (like Qualcomm, for example) and don't give clients like HTC the rights to distribute them except in binary form.
One day everything will be open-source. One day a carrier who advertises a phone as "open" will actually sell it as open, too.
I had my laptop dual boot with Slax and Win XP for about a week. I can't tell you how much I regret wasting the time to even set that up. Lets say you get the bootloader to work on the G1... Now tell me... what exactly are you going to use to control the capacitive touch screen and why? Can't we all just admit that Windows time is near its end and its only saving grace is to mimic what the open source communities are doing, or Apple if you want to refer to Windows 7... ick i say, ick.
True i am going to hijack this and wonder also why has no one looked into why we are only using 384mhz of the 528mhz that the processor can run at it was in another thread that no one commented on?

That's actually pretty slick. I wonder if a version will support tmo-usa's 3G band?
Hello, I have an Axim X51v that I bought off someone who didn't want to deal with it anymore. Anyway when you turn it on it hangs at the dell logo or sometimes at the windows start up logo, rarely it makes it into windows but it freezes up after a little while. I've tried flashing several different roms on it (so did the previous owner) but each time it's the same result. I've checked diagnostics mode (record+power+reset) and everything seems to check out (flash has a green zero) and every time I flash a rom it makes it through without any problems. Also the bootloader is a10_g3 is this version known to be unstable? Could it be flashed wrong? That's the only thing I can really think of.
You know this forum is for HTC devices?
Im not familiar with Dell PDA's but i cant imagine flashing roms willy nilly will work on a dell which are designed for HTC devices. Give me a link for the ROM which you are currently trying to use.
Have you tried flashing original rom back on, thats wm5 yes?
Yeah I know it's for htc devices (this is where I get roms for my kaiser). But I've also seen roms for the x51 here too and I assumed someone may know something about em here. Anyway I have the "stock" wm5 rom flashed right now (flashed with sdloader) and it's pretty much in the same shape.
We don't frown upon answering questions for other devices. This forum is meant to help people. If you can get your answer here.. cheers on that.. hope you will.

sorry wasnt meaning to sound sarcastic, ive had some experience of axim but mostly wm5, just wasnt too clear on ur issues, what exactly happens? you say it freezes but what do you do that makes it so?
Well that's the thing it freezes randomly, even just sitting there it will freeze. I want to say its the flash but every time I check it the test comes out clear. So the the only thing I can think of is the bootloader is messed up.
Ive just been to the dell support site and wow, alot of un happy people, i can see why your friend didnt want it anymore...
After doing some reading there i can only suggest you download their official rom and rom updates and see if you can get it running normally. What i dont understand is flashing a new rom should clear everything, i dont think it is the bootloader if the system boots up fully correctly, it has to be a rom issue (or hardware of course).
check out these sites, doesnt make good reading im afraid :
http://search.euro.dell.com/results...~srd=False&ipsys=False&advsrch=False&~ck=anav
http://en.community.dell.com/forums/3530.aspx?PageIndex=2
good luck and let me know how you get on.
Well as I said it takes several tries to get into windows (sometimes it wont work at all until I leave it without the battery for an hour or so) so its not booting up normally at all . Anyway I had the wm5 a12 rom on there for a while but it still has the same problems (I used sd flash since I really cant sync and flash with the way it freezes). So yeah I'm not sure what I can do
mmm.....
If youve had several different roms on it, including official ones, it could mean a hardware problem too.......
Im no chef, but i would have expected a bootloader issue to be resolved with a known working official rom?
How old is the Dell? Just a thought, have you tried the online help with a technical rep from Dell, they were good when trying to sort out an issue with my 4 year old laptop? Sorry but im running out of ideas........
Hey I think I got it! Seems the previous owner modified the battery latch. After messing around a bit I stuck a toothpick on the "button" that is depressed when the door is closed and it seems to be running perfectly stable! I even did a few resets and each time it boots just fine. Thanks to everyone who replied and offered advice.
hoorah! saved by a tooth pick, now ive heard it all haha. congrats!

Hey Dan, You have to look in the Touch Pro 2 Section under Android Management. Here's the link to save time.

Not everything works yet, the big things are Bluetooth, camera, and the keyboard lights. Otherwise most works and it's great!
Please make sure to read the FAQ's and search before you ask questions because a lot can be solved with the search option. If nothing else, send me a PM. I have the Sprint TP2 activated on Boost Mobile and running XDAndroid so hopefully I can help. Good Luck!
aoastill, check out these FAQ's and see if any of that will work. If not, we'll take it from there.

thanks man.. could not find it.
now... i have the HTC Hero which has android....
the TP2 looks like it has the same hardware specs...cpu and memory.
difference..
Hero has bigger camera
THP2 has bigger screen and keyboard.
I had thought the TP2 had better cpu and memory.. I was wrong. I am having issues.. with the Hero lag and performance.
will there be any benefits with android on TP2??

To be honest, what the developers are doing is incredible, but I'd prefer to have the stock android phone. Idk if it's the sense of comfort that it's "official" or what.
The only benefits I can think of is the customizations. Such as overclocking, and all that stuff. The problem with it is it's obviously a work in progress, so you won't have the camera, bluetooth, etc. I know that's been a problem for me lately. I need the camera quick and when I get my phone out, I remember it doesn't have a camera But I think you'd be happier with the stock one compared to XDANDROID. But for the phones that don't have Android, it is wonderful.
And to comment on your statement about the RAM and processor. They both have the same processor and amount of RAM. The Hero has a better camera, but otherwise, everything is bigger and better on the TP2. And I like the TP2's slide out keyboard

So what you are saying is that there's no way to use a cdma tp2 (sprint version) in gsm mode (as my carrier is orange dominicana so it is gsm only ) on android? I tried android once and I could not get signal, but I thought it had something to do with the fact that I didn't look too much into the configuration I just wanted to see how it performed. if that's so then I think I won't be using android on my tp2 as it is my main phone now and without gsm support (as of now, ) it serves for testing purpose only, anyways the devs are doing a greeeeat job, I'm sure it'll improve over time.

No, that is not what I mean at all. We just have to figure out why yours isn't working. So I can understand what setup you have, do you have the startup utility in windows to boot into Android? Or are you going and opening haret.exe? If you are using the startup utility, go into the settings and make sure CDMA, and N. Am. Dial are checked off.
Also make sure you have the latest rootfs. Go to this site, http://files.xdandroid.com/rootfs/ and download the latest one. Rename it as rootfs.img and copy it to the andboot folder on your SD card. It'll replace the old one and that has the latest stuff in it. Give all that a try and see if it doesn't work then.

Thanks, i'll try that, (although I have a version that is about 2 weeks old, so maybe outdate issues can be ruled out, lol) I think that I checked the cdma thing when I tried it mainly because I have heard that in WM if you go gsm on a cdma phone you'll brick it so I didn't want to take any chances, next time I try I'll make sure to check off the cdma box, I'll give it a try later and will come back to report, I'm such a noob...
Hey you're doing fine. I have the CDMA version of the TP2 and I had a lot of bugs to work out. I guess it's tougher to get it working on that than a GSM phone. I still feel like I have no idea what I'm doing lol.
