error 204 means your device isnt connected to activesync correctly, you either need to soft reset or try a different cable or make sure its just connected right... good luck

[oljoe28]

does it need to be activesync 6.5...i am currently running 6.1

no you should have Activesync 4.5 if you have xp, because that is the latest, or if you have vista you should be running WM Device Center. Either way your phone should be connected just like you were to sync it, then run the Custom_RUU.exe that came with the ROM and it should find your phones current rom and you just click Update. You should be good. If all else fails just put the phone into the bootloader and flash while its in boot loader mode.

thanks dude, but this isn't working for me..i appreciate your help..by the way, i am using windows mobile..running vista

Alright, i really shouldnt be helpin ya how to flash in this thread, these questions should be in a new thread by themselves; however i copied this excerpt from one of D/\SH's posts on how to flash roms... you should try flashing from SD card instead if you are having connectivity issues, here's how... in the future please reference Dash's flashing guides, they can be found in his signature.

** BEGIN EXCERPT **

Flash from microSD Card (Thanks to MadlyAlive):

1. Make sure you backup anything that is necessary to your day to day operations! At a minimum, please perform an ActiveSync to Outlook or your Exchange server prior to flashing!
2. Rename the custom ROM NBH file from RUU_Signed.nbh to RAPHIMG.nbh
3. Copy RAPHIMG.nbh to the root of your microSD Card.
4. Hold the Volume Down and Power button simultaneously. While you're still holding those 2 buttons, press the reset button with your stylus.
5. When your Touch Pro tells you to do so, press the power button to begin the flash process. If you do not get the message to press the power button to flash, there is a mistake in the name of the NBH file or you do not have the file at the root of your microSD card.
6. When flashing is complete, perform a soft reset.
** END EXCERPT **

Good luck,,,

You can Flash with out using Windows Mobile as long as you see the your Device when you open up My Computer you can flash your phone. I do it all the time on my mom's laptop her doesnt have Windows Mobile Center and I flash just fine with out it. Or do like Venum post an flash threw SD Card.

[Cdog9190]

i'm having no problems with this so far. except that some of my taskbar icons disappear every now and then but other than that this is great

long story short i noticed i had d/led the v117 not v117u. so i assume any custumization was BAD for the v117. anyway I'm limped to a friends house and saw new links for v117u and d/led it. i flashed the phone and for the last 45 minutes or so everything is fine.

so i would have to say if anyone is having similar issues as me to make sure you have the lasest rom from the rapidshare link.

the one from rapidshare thats at the top in the first post is the one i had downloaded is that the 177u or 117 cause i cant find the difference..

177u has user customization 117 doesnt. most people want to do the u version.

I've been running this overnight and I must say, I am very impressed with this ROM!. My rookie experience with WM 6.5 has been awesome! Everything is so smooth and my battery life has improved dramatically. Thanks to all those involved in the making of this bad boy! I highly recommend it. My only 2 probs that I am experiencing are: 1. I am using the Classic Blue theme and it is in the background but when I go back to TF3D2 home it's just black. Occasionally the top bar with the icons will go to the theme but mostly it stays black. 2. I cant get my GPS to work. Ive used adv config and enabled AGPS, Ive changed the external gps to com0 as seen in other posts. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I give this ROM a 9 out of 10. Superb!

To set the background for TF3D-2 you have to scroll through TF3D-2 untill you find SETTINGS, then click on Wallpaper and from there you can look for the background you want to set, im not sure in what folder are the stock backgrounds located.

I love this rom but i need some help. When i soft reset I get a black square in the taskbar where i think the volume icon is supposed to be. Also if I connect my phone to my pc I get some error that says cannot open connection 57600 default. Anyway to fix this?

after you flashed the rom did you hard reset the phone?

I ended up getting v117u from ppcgeeks.

Ok. after a night of tweeking, i noted my battery life has gone out the window. meaning my battery life went faster than virgins at prom night. My battery was at 55% last night after reflash arround 8pm. this morning at 930am the battery was at 18% sitting idle with only galarm set for an alarm at 930am. i put the phone on the charger for about 45 minutes.


later in the day, around noon and after one hour of use, which consisted of two quick phone calls and deleting four emails on gmail via opera, my battery life went from 96% to 79%. a short time later, i was on opera and tried to turn off my data connection. there was a glitch and the phone froze again and eventually, after i took the battery out twice, the phone hardreset.

i'm about to give up and go to something else. its a shame really since i like this rom A LOT and when it's working it kicks a$$ with no other rom even close to the speed, touchflo3d2, etc. but for some reason something on my phone has crapped out. i've flashed back to stock and i'm reflashing one more time.


so deck can see if it's something i'm doing (which is more likely the problem) or overinstalling programs, here what i'm doing.

after reflash, i moved all my saved data back to the phone,

i moved saved ringtones, for contacts, to the windows/rings folder.
i moved saved google maps cache to application data/google maps
i moved my i.e. favorites to windows/favorites.
i registerd resco explorer
i installed thumbcal to the phone dir, without setting it as default calander or default task

i installed galarm 2.0.3, without registering it
i installed resco photoviewer and resco registry to the phone dir without registering either of them

i launched photoviewer and set the program as default photoviewer.

i ran opera and had to manually set my favorites again, which was lost once again.

lastly i ran my pim backup via swcked backup.


again, i hope it's something i'm doing during the tweeking process. if so i can at least, knock that $h*t off.

i'm almost done with my reflash back to stock, and i'm reflashing to this rom with only installing my pim data and galarm.

word and maby try the new star rom and see what he has going...... im on that currently... still setting up but so far so good and through flash and half of setup using wisbar im still at 90%

[wcked]

I guess everyone has there opinion and review.And i will post mines.

After a couple of times i had to reinstalled this rom.I again was facing an issue with all other roms and i always had to revert back to stock.Which is the net packet i couldn't get online or use my aim or get emails and so on.So i was facing that issue with this rom.So what i did was i cleared (reset) my phone using ##786# and what that will do is Like a master reset and clear all settings from the previous stock rom.But before i did that i took information from my stock rom.

example:

“ Quote ”

I. Prepare with EPST:

1. Always keep a record of your phone's ESN, MSID, Security, EPST, and M. IP settings in case a flash reprograms your phone.
2.

Run the EPST utility by:
* typing ##778# or ##778 (depends upon carrier) into the dialer
*

or from the ..\Windows directory you can also directly execute EPST.exe or EPST.lnk
o If EPST.exe quickly loads and exits, then try a few more times before resetting your phone and trying again.
3. Select VIEW and then record your info. On most versions, the A-Key is blank and will not be displayed. If your phone fails to authenicate with your provider, you will need to call your providers technical support line to get a new A-key. The A-key is not reuseable.

To edit your EPST if you have lost security and data connections:

NOTE: The Verizon MSL is 000000 (six zeros) - you don't need to run getspl.exe for a Verizon phone, skip to step 6.

1. First follow these steps to obtain your phone's MSL unlocking code
2. Obtain getspl.exe
3. execute that on your Titan
4. Type in your ESN(Hex) into the input field
5. Hit go and record your phone's MSL Number (EPST unlock code)
6. Re-run the EPST app and now select Edit and unlock with your MSLNumber
7. Edit the necessary keys
8. Select Done when finished

this information i got from xda deveopleer and i always keep this on my bookmark for later reference

Once you do the master rest you then have to go to ##123456# the 6 digit unlock code will replace that 123456 then you will get in and hit the edit button.

In the msd box under setting you will enter your mobile phone number (1234567890) then go to msid in settings you will enter the number that sprint gave you it will be different depending what state you live and if you had followed the example mpst you will know what is the number from there.

Next you will go to ##778# and go to your epst and hit the edit followed by your unlock code to get in .Only make changes to the area that needed the changes as described.

Once you have completed all of the above do a hard reset then take the battery out and wait 2 mins then put the battery back in and you should be all good to connect online using your data packet.

This is the easiest and the best way of doing it and not dealing with sprint or install any cab files.

Even though the rom is fast for me and set up to the way i like it. i still did few more tweaks.And made it alot better then what it is now.

follow this link that i also bookmarked for later use

Code

http://www.clintonfitch.com/reviews/clinton/tweakingtouch-pt2/default.asp

and go to the tweak section and download the battery performance and the performance and battery tweaking cabs.Don't install the cab file just open the text file follow the reg value and make the changes to your phone.

Always reboot your phone when you make changes to the reg section and you will see the difference form before and after.Also dash brought to my attention too disable the beam inbound which also will drain your battery.


Sorry for the long novel I'm just sharing info to what i did to this rom and few fixes and tweaks.For those that have no clue to what to do i suggest you leave it to the pro's because you will damage your phone and i will not be responsible for it....

did you have to calibrate the screen after you chose clear settings? if so than it worked, if it booted up without the normal installations and lag of setting up your deivce than no it didnt go through

Yeah I got a calibrate screen so i guess i did do a hard reset. Is there anything else i should do cause i've already tried to reflash it

If I do a soft reset I get this black square where my sound icon is supposed to be on the taskbar. I get an error when i connect to my pc "cannot open the connection 57600 default" (this also happens after i do a soft reset). Everthing runs perfect before that

[Eddiekane]

Ok, i have been running this rom for a few days now and I have to say that this rom is off da chain! I love the menu layouts! I like the fact that I can have a TF3D theme on when I wanna use that and I can switch my 6.5 themes when I want TF3D off and they don't conflict with each other. The cooked in programs are awesome but I did have to add a few that were for my taste but thats normal for anyone. I do have one issue though, I can't get the Java app to run in fullscreen for some reason! I have a ton of Java games that I want to paly but I can't see them to use them, lol. Does anyone have a fix for this issue? Other than that, this Rom is great! Great work guys!!!!!!

--------- New Post Merged on 25/5/2009 at 02:07:11 --------

Hey guys, I was searching for a fix for the java issue I was having and I went to the website this was originally posted on and i saw that v0118 has been realeased. I am downloading it now and I am gonna flash today. I hope the java runs in fullscreen on this one.

[fanaticny]

I put this room to a test, started at 64% battery, had 14 programs running in the background, used skyfire a bit, wunderadio, IE, Opera and some others, had backlight set to Max, 3 hours and 10 mins later the phone die, but with so many programs running in the background I noticed barely any lags, almost non existent. Now Im off to flashing V.0118 :yahoo:
