[Q] InstallingTopaz ROM for a Touch Diamond 2

I am trying to run the Topaz ROM file by transferring it from My PC which has windows 7 to my HTC Diamond 2 phone but I get a communication error. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

syrian
must have windows active sync program

Assuming you are trying to install a custom ROM and you have successfully installed HSPL, rename the .nbh file to TOPAIMG.nbh and copy to the root of your storage card and enter bootloader mode. It will flash that way as well.
If it is th estock ROM, you can also enter bootloader while connected to your PC and bypass Active Sync and then run the .exe.

Yep, Sync the phone with the windows, works with windows 7 (must download a seperate software form microsoft site), install HSPL, and than use customRUU, or the provided installer with the Rom to install it.

I think you should visit this thread. You'll find a lot of useful stuff there, including all you should know about flashing ROM, HardSPL, etc.
Enjoy!

[Q] How install XAP on LG E900?

Hey,
My LG E900 is the OS version: 7.10.8107.79. And I want to unlock it take to install applications and games XAP. I used the method by MFG, I put XAP in a Tom XAP Installer to install, and gives me this error when installing:
-Please Make sure your phone was unlocked !
-Please Make sure you connected device to PC and Zune launched
Try again?
What happening? This method does not it? You can get the original ROM and remain the ChevronWP7 up to this latest version? I have another way?
Thanks in advance and sorry my english!
PS: I can put original Rom, install ChevronWP7 and remain to Last Version (7.10.7740/7.10.8107, or other)?

Use the official Xap installer tool "Application Deployment" that comes with the SDK. The third-party installers are plagued with bugs and bad error messages. Many of them also require at least a few components from the SDK, even if they say otherwise.
If you want to make sure that the phone is ready to receive apps, try synching a file to it from Zune - Zune must be running and synched with the phone for XAP deployment.

[Q] Quick developer unlock wp7

Hi there, I saw these posts about developer unlock for windows phone 7. I tried to do every single one of them, but somehow somewhere I always get a mistake... I want to root or however you call it my windows phone 7.5[mango] and i am a noob when it gets about that.... I currently possess HTC Trophy, and i want to do this because i want to be able to send and transfer files via bluetooth. I also tried to install xap files via ie on wp but it say file type not supported... Anyone know a way i can install .xap file on my windows phone 7 that it's easy?

No such thing as a quick developer unlock for HTC phones.
This is the best guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271963

Nope
Nope, i need a tutorial on how to install .xap files, and on a link you gave me it says to install .xap file with xap file deployment tool... how the heck am i gonna do that when i can't open xap files since it's developer locked???
3. Download this attachment to your PC: HTC Interop Unlock.xap
4. Connect your device to a PC running Zune and install the xap-file using any xap-deploy-tool. You don't need to start the app. If it starts automatically, you can close it right away.

Currently, the only ways to dev-unlock a Trophy (or other HTC phone) are to get an AppHub account or use a custom ROM.

hmmmmh...
ummm, how do i do that? how do i use or set custom ROM? is there a guide or something... ?

For more device specific instructions and custom ROMs, go to the forums for your device. HTC Trophy, you said
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=809
In order to load a custom ROM, you need to downgrade and change the HSPL/RSPL. For the Trophy see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1503298
As far as deploying XAPs to your phone from your computer, many options exist, but you have to be at least developer unlocked, and the only way is through AppHub right now. Thus, maybe flashing a custom ROM would be a better way to go.
Good Luck! and hit Thanks if you found this helpful.

[Q] Nokia Lumia 710 custom ROM

Hi. I'd like to try a custom ROM in my Lumia 710 and I have few questions about it:
1) Is there any ROM that would change Lumia's USB PC-connection to standard USB storage mode (just like USB-sticks, digital cameras, Android phones), instead of that complicated Zune transfer?
2) How about backing up my current ROM? Is it possible to revert back to original ROM after flashing a custom ROM?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
try using the custom rom Rataplan, just search it, then look for a guide which will explain how to install the custom rom, then install Windows Mobile Center as well Zune, then you will be able to see your folders

[Q] Need some answers about Ubuntu on N8000

Hi everyone,
I'm new to this community (as well as these activities i.e. flashing, modding etc..), but i have been following up on threads and topics for about 2 months..
i was obsessed with changing my N8000's OS, and I've found here a lot of Mods and stuff like Cyanogen Mod and OmniRom and others
but i decided to try out Ubuntu.
So far, i have found 2 main topics about installing Ubuntu on N8000, first one by mamenyaka about Ubuntu touch, and the other is X-Stranger's about Ubuntu (the PC version I Guess..),
However, i have a bunch of questions regarding installation and features, so please be patient with my n00bness! and Thanks in Advance...
(if this thread gets solved, I think it can perhaps be used as a "newbie FAQs")
1st of all i have a note 10.1 N8000 running stock JB , and I have about 3.5 GB free
These Questions are based upon procedures and infos in mamenyanka's thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168999
1- Should i upgrade to 4.4.x KK or should i keep JB? (recommendations?)
2- Do i have to have Cyanogen Mod installed on My device in order to install Ubuntu?
3- Do i have to Root the Device?
4- Can i Dual Boot this or install on SD?
5- Sound doesnt Work? u mean speakers aint detected? can it be usable if i plug the headphones?
6- Cellular Radio doesnt work? u mean no Calls/SMS?
7- What about Play store and its Apps?
8- Does this Ubuntu support WINE?
9- Does this Ubuntu detect other devices like BT keyboard or USB Flashes?
10- What is the best Tool for Backing up? (my device is untouched since buying i.e. didnt do any kind of Modding)
11- Does the backup save my entire data (Apps,games,savegames,notes,contacts,gallery,sounds etc.)
12- What is the chance of my device getting bricked?
And these questions are based upon X-Stranger's Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554959
1- What kind of ubuntu is this?
2- Should i upgrade to 4.4.x KK or should i keep JB? (recommendations?)
3- Can i DualBoot this or install on SD?
4- Does the sound work here?
5- 3G doesnt work? u mean no Calls/SMS?
6- What about Play store and its Apps?
7- Does this Ubuntu support WINE?
8- Does this Ubuntu detect other devices like BT keyboard or USB Flashes?
9- What is the recovery.img file, what is the custom and the native recovery.img, and what does the "menus" stand for?
10- What is the chance of my device getting bricked?
A Yes/No answer would be enough for most of these questions..
Thanks Again
