Right, So I've decided that it's time to go with the custom rom due to some problems I've been having.
I am not able to transfer files from the phone to my pc or browse the windows folder with my pc.
On top of this I have other problems.
For starters the phone refuses to turn off on it's own. I have it set to turn the backlight off after 30sec and the entire display off in 1min. The backlight turns off ok but the screen never does. I can turn the phone off normally with the power button but as soon as a notification occurs the phone turns on and never turns off. This has been killing my battery on the nights I forget to plug it in.
The other problem I have is activesync just doesn't work. Most times it just sits there saying retrieving settings forever, I can browse the phone but not sync it. If I delete the partnership and recreate it I can get it to sync once but not again. Most other times the phone just says waiting for network when I try to sync.
I also have been getting alot of random crashes on the phone and really slow response. So I've been attempting to downgrade to the 1.8 rom so I can SIM unlock with Lokiwiz. I believe I've got the right rom from XDA's ftp but I can't seem to get it to install.
I get to this message and it just hangs
"Running machinagod's HTC Wizard Unlocker"
I get this when I try a straight upgrade to the 2.26 custom rom as well.
However nothing happens to the phone, I can close out the bat window and disconnect the phone and nothing ever happens.
I know I've got the right versions to beable to do all this but alas nothing seems to work.
Here's my bootup screen.
IPL: 2.26
SPL: 2.26
GSM: 02.25.11
OS: 2.26.10.2
Can anyone help me out or has t-mobile done something to completly cripple my phone?
EDIT:
I've done a bit of troubleshooting and it seems the trouble I'm having with SIM and CID unlocking has to do with the ability to transfer from the device to the PC. The unlock programs are trying to create lock_backup.bin but that file never gets written cause I cannot transfer any data from the MDA to the pc.
Is there a regedit that might beable to fix this? I've tried everyting, multiple pc's disabling all firewalls, even uninstalling firewalls does nothing.
