Hi all.
I try to join wonderful tab world.
Maked little search over xda and found some old threads only and they not about tablet. Maybe here some difference or some tips what i must know.
Basically i have this situation that (i guess tomorrow, depends at postal service work) i get brand new and untouched Viewsonic Viewpad 10s (not viewpad 10). When (before first full run or later) and how i can make rom dump? I guess devs want it. I dont need that someone rewrites full guide if it exist, just maybe tips or picking to right place.

Hi fellow members of XDA!
This is a question I putting to the community (hope to receive more answers than my previous question.
I've been browsing around the web for the last few day in search of way to make my own tablet pc. I think I found some interesting things to get me going and I do have an old laptop that I think I could easily use for my adventure. And so, now that the Hardware part is (in theory) solved I've reach another problem. The OS part. I know android is open source, that most likely I would easily put linux running on the machine, but somehow I want to make it windows mobile capable. Call it a whim if you want.
After reading some stuff around this forum about rom cooking (and I'm no programmer) I have more questions than answers.
So my big question is: If a XDA Rom Cook had access to the device specs, could it build a windows mobile rom for that same device? What specs would he/her need?
Another idea of mine is: I have an old blue angel and a prophet stopped at home. Could I salvage parts from them to the tablet pc?
And here is another question: Where can I get the touch screens, casings and other tablet pc components? Does anyone here knows?
Thanks for reading. I'll start on this project soon and let you know how it goes.
Cheers
Hello all,
I've buy Nokia N97 from china .... and as you all know that China phone come with their own OS ...
is it possible to change the China default os into Symbian/WinMO/Android OS??
what equipment i must have to do it ???
No you cant change it, atleast not on XDA
You could try here:
http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update
You will be stuck with the Symbian OS, but whether it will let you update it or not, or whether you can change the language or not , depends on lot of ifs and buts.
Give it a go.
The 'How to' tab will tell you what you need to attempt an upgrade.

That's for the original nokia phones
Is it a clone down to the last resistor and diode, or a cheap and cheerful look and run alike, built out of just what happened to be languishing in the the inventory bins?
I just got an HTC HD 2 today from a friend, and it already has a version of android on it. I dont know how to replace the android files without messing up the phone. Can someone help or walk me through this?
i know this aint help but have u tried the hd2 section
also is your name from coheed and cambria lol!
I have looked through the section and I cant find anything on how to replace the files. Yes it is. The greatest band ever!
sry i dont know anything about the hd2 and yes sir you are correct i just saw them in dallas for the neverender tour 4 hours of nothing but coheed it was amazing my 3rd show i may add new orleans, little rock, and dallas!
you shld be able to ask the same question in that thread im sure someone will be able to help
If your friend was so generous to give you that nice piece of hardware I´m sure he can guide you to replace the Android OS with that Microsoft crap. Your friend has invested some time and energy in the modification of his phone so he would be interested in having you enjoying it, too, wouldn´t he?
To be able to help it would be useful to know if android rom is nand (ie has replaced the original wm6.5 os) or is running from sd card.
When you boot up the phone, does magldr load?
I would suggest you do go over to the hd2 forum and look at the sticky threads, tey have all the info you will need to change/update android to something newer or even change os completely to say wp7?
If your droid is nand, it is very simple to update, just head over to the HD2 nand forum
Cheers.
Thank you everybody for being kind and not throwing noob slanders at me. The friend who gave me the phone actually bought it off of someone who put android on it haha so this nice phone is a hand-me-down for sure.
Hello guys,
I am new here at XDA, I dig out this forum for two days allong trying to find any information or resources to the Ipaq 116.
This PDA was given to me by a friend that don't even remember that he had it, when he found he gave it to me before move to another State. So I am here with this old new gadget without manuals or even basic CD. And even in this situation I am a little excited to do things with it.
As I said before, I already dig out this forum trying to find any information to this specific model but I had no success, even on the HP site they give no downloads, informations or any other stuff about this one.
Apparently this specific model, 116, is exactly like other models as the 114 (but with a largem rom, 256 vs 64) So, since I am really a n00b with PDAs I am here asking and calling people that have it, or had it in the past and still keep good memory (and or files) for it.
There's any chance to find a Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM to upgrade this model? Right now the ROM date is "04-07-2008" and the revision number is the v1.01.03.
Does Android would work on it? If yes where should I start?
My point is to try use it the best way I can, so far I was able to find some ebook readers (that don't work very good) and the updated application to it's TodayPanel.
Any kind of information would be appreciated. I know that is couple years old gadget but it is working fine and can be usefull to me, so, any contact would be appreciated.
Just a information. I am not sure that this is windows mobile 6, i am just replicating the info that was on the chart. As I see, the OS version is the 5.2 so, I have another "problem".
Hi all.
I have a sonim XP3 quest pro. I like it because its tough, the battery lasts 4 weeks and it really is water proof. What i really dont like is his software.
I have been (frustratingly) searching the internet about what can i do about it and found out that:
- Sonim is not making firmware updates
- the core of this phone is Philips Nexperia 5210 with arm9 processor
- there were other phones with this processor ( like sony ericson p990) and run symbian
so my questions are:
Can i install symbian (at least 9.1) on it? If so where can i find it to download? it seems i can't find older versions.
And how do i do it? I'm not an expert....
If its impossible, or not worth it, what can i do? (and don't tell me to throw it away and buy another)
Thanks.
so... my question is not even worth answering....
when you made the "scare-the-noob" video you should add "if you searched everywere and did not find it, don't bother asking. most likely we don't know and we are ashamed to admit that we don't know everything"
a simple "I don't know" would have been more polite than no answering.
thanky you anyway. at least i learned how this forum is willing to help.
lol.
hi, i nned to reflash sonim xp5700. can someone help me?

As a result of the search, he found an effective method. You need to use the Infinity box CM2.
With this program, a backup was made that was successfully installed on another phone. Who will help me to repackage the firmware for a free program?
