HTC Elf, PC - Phone File Transfer

[dgcarter]

Something that has been bugging me is the speed at which file are copied between my pc and my phone.

I was playing with my dads phone (The HTC Touch Diamond 2) and I noticed a nice feature, when the phone is connected to the pc it asks you to choose a connection setting, namely: Active Sync, File Storage, or Internet Conn Sharing.

If you choose the file storage mode, the phone appears as a flash disk type device with access to the storage card and files are transfered at the same speed as one would expect from a flash disk.

So my question basically is, is it possible to do something like that with my HTC Elf, I'm running WM 6.0.

Thank in advance.

Almost all cooked ROMs have got this feature... However, if you don't want to flash your device, you can use apps like WM5torage (http://www.modaco.com/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=1702)

Too late I'm afraid... did the whole rom upgrade thing, got a bit carried away and now my phone is bricked, so much so that it wont even power on... looks like it was my 1st and last smartphone. :(

Try to unbrick it using this (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_GoldCard)

I wish I could... problem is, the phone is literally dead, and I mean dead... I push the power button and nothing happens... at all.

Sounds like a Motherboard issue.

It was working perfectly until it restarted after I tried restoring my dumped SPL and IPL. I don't know why it would just become so totally unresponsive, its never given any trouble before.

Oh, no wonder!
You cannot ever restore dumped spl or ipl, as you can get it from the forums.

Gold card method left.
Check the elf-upgrading forum.

Oh well, you live you learn... I was relieved to find that I still have 3 months on the warranty, and the phone is so stuffed up that I don't think theres even any way to tell that I had all sorts of funky roms on the device.

I started looking into the idea of restoring the device with the JTAG technique, but there's not much info out there re: the elf, so I thought I'd be kind to myself and just drive all the way out to Lab88 and get them to repair it.

Hold thumbs, lol...
