from step 3:
"- Open a command prompt at your new directory"
how do i open the command prompt? i tried to open from my computer, but it wouldn't let me open from my mobile phone. I'm lost here. i didn't even make it through the first step. :-p or was i supposed to open it directly from my phone? sorry if you could help me just there i think i can manage the rest.
OK, So here's the deal:
You have to follow Paul's instructions to the letter, one line at a time as I did this yesterday to my t-mobile wing and it worked great. but if you dont follow it you will have problems...
I'm going to try to shed some light (for the ones that are new to this) about the instructions that Paul presented...
USE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AS AN ADDITIONAL HELP THE THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT PAUL PRESENTED EARLIER. This is to make it easier for some of you that are newer to this.
NOTE: Always ignore the " marks.. type the command just like it is between the " marks
So, first things first:
1. Install the permissions CAB to your device
a. you have to have your phone connected throught the whole time to your computer using the USB cable
b. you have to make sure the Active sync software is installed and working properly on your computer (meaning you can sync with your phone).
c. copy the file to your phone and run it from your phone so that it installs to the phone.
2. Create a directory and download itsutils
a. Create a directory on your computer on the desktop. Name it PAGEPOOL
b. Donload itsutils from the link in paul's instructions (step 2) to your desktop
c. open the zip file and copy the contents (38 files) to the PAGEPOOL directory
3. Extract the ROM from your device
a. open the PAGEPOOL folder and in the address bar at the top click on the path to highlight it and then Right click and choose copy from
from the menu that pops up. (this will copy the path of the PAGEPOOL folder to your clipboard.
in my case its this (C:\Documents and Settings\paul\Desktop\pagepool )
b. Now, go to Start, Run, and type in CMD then hit enter (this will open your command prompt - black screen)
c. in this black screen type "CD " (and note there is a space after the CD) then right click the black screen and choose paste.
you should see the whole path pasted after the "CD " like this "CD C:\Documents and Settings\paul\Desktop\pagepool"
and you can see that the space is still there between the CD and C:\
d. now, hit enter and you will be at the correct prompt. in my case "C:\Documents and Settings\paul\Desktop\pagepool"
e. type "PDOCREAD -L" This will give you and output on the screen.. look for the line that says the larger number with M 51.2 M in my case and
then its followed by a (0xAAAAAAA). Make note of that hex number and use it in the next step
f. type "PDOCREAD 0 0x7777777 PART02.DUMP" Make sure to substitute your 0x7777777 with information found in the previous screen 0xAAAAAA
Note: This will take a few good minutes.. in my case about 10-15 minutes.
4. Run the T mobileWingPagePool 4 mb or 6 mb to replace step 4 in Paul's original instructions: and i quote him:
"
Here's a new idea for the Wing users... rather than doing the HexEdit thing, you can apply one of these patchers below to your part02.dump file - to do the edit for you - then just
flash back. To use, copy to the same directory as your raw file and run!
So,
THESE PATCHERS REPLACE STEP 4, note that they overwrite the part02.dump rather than creating a new file, so when you flash back you flash the part02.dump filename.
Let me know how it works out
P
PS These patchers have CRC checking enabled, so should be very safe!
Attached File(s) 
T_MobileWingPagePool4MB.exe ( 4.31k )
Number of downloads: 50
T_MobileWingPagePool6MB.exe ( 4.31k )
Number of downloads: 42"
5. Flashing your edited dump back to the device.
a. Make sure you're still connected with the cable from the phone to the computer
b. Go to the communication manager on your phone and turn off the phone option to put the phone in "Flight mode"
c. In the command prompt that you had opened type "PDOCWRITE PART02.DUMP"
NOTE: this will take about 10-15 minutes so have patience. If you get any errors, try it again with the same command. I got 2 errors and the third time it worked all the way through even thought i didnt mistype it or anything else.. Not sure why but it worked for me.
6. Soft reset the phone by using the stylus into the side of the phone next to the volume keys.. Wait for it to restart and you should be good.
