hi there, sure we can help you, 1st use the search button, and you will be able to find what you look!
good luck then!

ok I have reflashed my wizard 4 times tonight. I have tried the newest TNT rom, Hornet 5 and Touch HD. On flashing TNT and Hornet, it says that the updater is not new enough and leaves my wizard in the 3color bar state. I also have been unable to connect to my home wifi network through my wizard, through either the love rom, or the touch hd. anyone have suggestions?

ok i appreciate the time you took to post but i did say that i have read a lot of threads and posts and not many of them make sense to me, i am a n00b at flashing these devices and i don't mind admitting it, all i asked for was some help not a derogatory remark.

but you have to read HOW TO UNLOCK, HOW TO FLASH and thats it, once you read you wll be able to unlock/flash
be sure to know if you have a G3 or G4 device, always have a fully charged battery to unlock, flash etc.
Better to use a xp based PC, use the lastest activesync, have a USB cable in good conditions, never ever touch the screen/cable in the unlock/flash, do not run another programs while unlock/flash.
Ok those are just some advices, all you migth need is in the forum..
GOOD LUCK!

follow the steps from 1 to 13.... difficult?
that will take less than 20 minutes to flash......
Or you want to spend days in mistakes??????????
Well.... thats it ! You have the right to make choices, I will say no more.
dude, i didnt mean to piss u off....its just tht this is my first time doing this sorta thing so i am a bit apprehensive....ill try to do so...sorry if i pissed u off!

Dear dioxda2..I hope you forgive me for answering instead of you...Dear Ronn13...I'm currently using this Rom...I should say that:yes, you definitely have to use the old method...This ROM is great and almost without bug (almost ).Hope you do it successfully.
thnx amiromario...secondly...i have wm5 installed....do i need toi do the pv temp step..or can i directly upgrade the rom?
To be safe, perform Step1 anyway. It is the only way to get a predictable state on your Prophet before flashing. As there are almost no "pure" official ROM's, every vendor branded it to their ow liking, it is hard to tell if your WM5 isn't going to obstruct an update (afterall, we are hacking this stuff).

Iolite Regionlock-how to remove?

Htc Iolite WWE has english language
By flashing RUS rom using gold card all goes right, by finishing and rebooting it says that rom not desighned for this region.
I've tried to disassemble russian rom in QMAT and assemble it with OS only without radio and spl, and it hangs on "loading" in bootloader... I understand, that firmware must be original shipped, or sighned by Htc, otherwise, it wont flash via gold card. Maybe another way to do it? I've found firmware that contains OS only, named "IOLITE_WWE2RUS_HTC__032_signed.nbh" it flashes via gold card and flashing and works, but i seriously doubt, that Htc done this version. You wrote that Rom must be patched to remove region lock. How to do it? Sorry for bad English...
No way. Only HTC private key.
Redional lock

To my knowledge,QMTA will temporarly make your device super CID to let you flash another ROM, but you still have to modifiy the shipped ROM by using NBHutil to take the shipped ROM apart and rebuild it.
Once you have an RUU_singed.nbh built by NBHutil, then, and only then you can flash without problems usinng the Iolite special RUU found in the Iolite forum.
correct, so only HSPL will help. I also have my own program to make the regionid patch.
And how goes the hardspl progress?
All here waiting for a hardspl for lolite.
EDIT:
Nevermind. I just saw your other post.
Thanks for your efforts.

Animelover from HTC-DEVs works hard, maybe this week! (today, tomorrow...)
Greetings!
Great! Waiting for this day.
Great!!!
Not cool
Greetings. First of all, I'd just like to say I have the utmost respect for cookers, since they develop their applications and programs on their own time. I can relate to that. Everyone is good at something and takes pleasure in doing it. And I also appreciate forums such as XDA-Developers, that are based on one helping the next out.
But... It's just not cool to leave us drooling over something for 2 times in a row:
1 - like saying "will get around to releasing HSPL soon" and then not hearing word from for 2 months;
2 - Saying that it is done and you're just going out to lunch and then you're gonna upload it, then a week passing and no word from, yet again.
I can understand that unexpected things can happen and you might not be able to do the Hard-SPL, but at least let us know that it won't happen, so we can go ahead and sell our Iolites and buy some other HTC that has Hard-SPL available. Just let us know once and for all if we should abandon all hope.
Best regards,
Bruno Santana.

The reason why nobody may have helped you is because you couldnt be bothered to help yourself.
There is plenty of information and guides on this if you take 2 minutes to look. All you need to do is boot into tricolor bootloader and flash stock windows mobile, tahts it. If you have been installing magldr/wp7 you should know how to do this.
You have purposely posted in the incorrect section, this is not for newbie support questions this is for posting ROM developments.
Thread reported.
i did boot into tri bootloader but when rom is installing it shows an "error 260: connection"

read the wiki to find out what that error means. No one here is going to be your personal tutor in finding these stuff out.
There are threads out there that talk about it but i'm guessing you didn't bother to search and decided to bypass all that.

Yup, I dont mind helping people but this guy wants us to wipe hs backside aswell
@ OP
Stop asking these types of questions, These can be answered very easily by simply using a search button which you obviously didn't bother to do.
If you read the topics and still have probs then ask again.
Use the search form - top right corner magnifying glass icon

I don't know about anyone else, but I stopped reading after this part. I didn't even get to the problem. Remember, you messed up your phone. You need others to assist you. Complaining that other people aren't helping you fix your mistake fast enough isn't going to encourage many people to want to try harder to help you.
Edit: I peaked at teh rest of your post. I think it's a fairly simple fix. But I'm not going to respond to your demanding post that is so overtly negative about this community that has helped so many.
If you reask the question nicely I'll be more than happy to try and assist you.

Well I didn't read your post as thoroughly as I should have before saying I thought I had the correct answer.
I missed where you said you were using an LG Doubleplay. This forum is for the HTC Sensation. These are VERY different devices. What would work for the Sensation may not work for an LG device. I don't want to give you bad information.
You are much better off asking your question in the Doubleplay forums where users familiar with the device will be able to assist you.
there isnt a forum for the double play thanks anyways
wait. i downloaded this file called c279.dll thats 89 mb. can i use this with odin to re flash the phone?
You are flashing the wrong ROM...find one for sensation

Firstly if you try to flash a wrong rom...you risk bricking...specially without backup.. find sensation roms by googling htcsensationroms
The rom you have mentioned is NOT a sensation rom
Dont open the rom you downloaded, connect the phone to ur pc and copy the rom to sd card
Also you need to speciify if you are S-On or S-Off.....
Provide more info abt ur situation (android version, recovery, S-On/Off) ...ill try to help
AND there are some really good devs on these fora...professionals(ask Skipjacks nicely, you should have your problem solved)....but you are going to have to ask NICELY....I'm preety much a noob but can handle rooting a etc
OK...just refreshed this thread...guess youre in the wrong place...look for LG forums...best of luck
sorry, im using the lg double play v 2,3,4 and im hopeless right now.
can anyone help?
No. You are asking this in the wrong place. You are going to get bad advice here that will likely break your phone even worse. Find an lg forum.
And do not use odin to update an lg phone!
