[Q] Samsung Focus with MAGLDR rom doesnt open diagnostics tool - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently installed the MAGLDR custom rom for the Focus and i just realized that the diagnostics tool doesn't open.
If anyone has the same problem, or knows how to fix it, please share.

There's a thread specific to the DFT Samsung ROMs in the dev&hacking sub-forum. I suggest that you read it (you'll find it searching thread subject line for "DFT"). The problem you report is well-known. I don't know if anybody has a proper fix for the underlying issue, but one option is to just install the Diagnostics app using a XAP file (since the ROM has the ability to install from XAPs built right in). There are also some custom ROMs with the app pre-installed.

[Q] windows mobile

hey,
well obviously I'm a newbie here and i needed to know if anyone can help me find a download link for windows mobile?it crashed on my Siemens pocketloox and i lost my cd so i've been looking everywhere for a downloadable version but i can't find one.
thanks in advance.
Dude a pda is not like a pc where you can freely install any OS you wish... The official Windows Mobile versions must be provided by your manufacturer (there isn't a Universal version per say... if you try to flash the version of another device you'll kill your phone). You may try to check Fujitsu-Siemens homepage for an official ROM update or contact them if needed
Over the net you may find ROMs for pda but bare in mind these are device specific and your device usually needs to be hacked in order to install unofficial versions (your device seems to be quite old... I don't believe you'll find any rom here since xda is almost HTC land).
Also what do you mean by crashed? Did you brick it (OS won't start... all you get is a black screen)? Have you tried removing/reinserting the battery and restarting?
the start menu suddenly has no icons,and neither the camera shortcut button nor the notes one are working.basically,it just opens and almost everything is disabled.
The easy solution is...
Just hardreset the device (seach here) and it will reset your device to factory defaults (it's like a format+reinstall)... Problem solved.
Just make sure you backup your data (photos, contacts, messages...) before because everything will be erased
thanks a lot man it worked.

Make rom file from PND?

Dear,
I am new on this forum therefore I do apologyze if I am posting at the wrong place
I have a nearly no name GPS (Magnum PND 2735) with Navigon on it.
It has Windows CE 5.0 on it (some references if it can help/ 00039-267-519-955 and X11-1532).
On the internet I found a program called MioPocket (MP, I can't post a link here, google will find it easyly for you). It allows you to get acces to the OS of your GPS and also allows to use other GPS programs (with a handy user interface).
Now I first used an older version of it with no problem. Then I installed the latest version and I had some troubles with some softwares so I decided to remove it again an reinstall it. Unfortunately it must have gone wrong; Now the GPs does not start, I have the startup screen working and then nothing starts. I suppose some drivers must have been deleted.
Now I have acces to my GPS with a USB cable to my computer. I have acces to the root of the GPS (Windows) but a lot of files are secured.
I have a friend with exactly the same GPS. He copied a maximum of files (able to copie) for me but it didn't work.
As a lot of files a locked I looked out for a rom file but did not find one. After a lot of research I found this friendly forum. I know my problem has not to do with HTC phones but the solution might be the same.
I would like to know if it would be possible (and how) to make a rom file from the OS on my friend's GPS and then how to install it to my GPS.
Is there specific software requested? Is there a procedure on how to make a rom file from a mobile device? Is it possible to make a rom file from any mobile device?
I do hope anyone can help me, I was so happy with my GPS.
First of all I thank everyone on this forum, you are all friendly and helpful.

[Q] Herotab MID816 or equivalent 8" Samsung S5VP210 tablets

I've used the search but only found one reply about the Herotab MID816 (and all its equivalent 8" Samsung S5VP210 tablets).
My question is this: anyone building a custom rom for this tablet maybe?
There's quite a bit of discussion on tablet firmware/roms over on slatedroid, the MID816 included.
http://www.slatedroid.com/index.php?board=168.0
Can someone please help us get full root? Thanks.
I am only posting here because I can't find the thread that addresses my prob.. I need help with my Herotab MID 816. I can't get rid of the original owners Google account which means no access to Google apps. Can anyone please help?
Thanks!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Did you try to add another Google account first, let it sync, then remove the owner's one?
On my 816 tablet this works.
Another way is to re-flash the tablet and then add your account.
I tried the first suggestion about adding another user.. The new user was added but still could not remove the initial user so I ended up upgrading to the new firmware and erasing the existing data. Thanks for your suggestions!
Hello again guys!
Ok after some (Lots) of searching i finally found firmware update 20110311 i think this is the latest (please feel free to correct me) and i even managed to get into the update firmware menu (power and menu button) now even though i can use ADB to reboot my device, i can connect the usb and transfer files to/from my computer when the tablet is on, the firmware update tells me that there is no driver for this device.
Went into device manager and there's the yellow mark, (cant update driver tried that) here's where it gets odd, the Yellow exclimation mark on the driver in device manager says Android 1.0 Yet i am running Android 2.3.1 maybe thats why i cant get the driver to work (Except for files tranfers) found a driver package but at a loss on how to install them as its a winrar file.
ANYONE who can advice on this, or has had the same issue please post a response

[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.
