Guest NewPulseOwner Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 INSTALLING A CUSTOM ROM Select the Option "USB MS Toggle" and plug your phone into your computer. Download a Custom ROM of your choice and place the ENTIRE ZIP (Do not extract it) onto the root of your SD card. - Can somebody explain how I send the zipfile to my Pulse without extracting it? It always starts to automatically extract it... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is the browser try downloading it in another or locate the temp folder where the file is stored. If you are using Mac then this is a problem. I don't own one and do not know how to copy it over :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not linux, unix! And I don't view it as complicated, installing it on non-Apple software is hard, my keyboard sometimes decides to hold in the "^@" key according to the console, I mean, if something is coded it only has one outcome (variables can go to hell just now) right?

Guest twrock Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Returning to the Official 1.5 Update You must have the Official 2.1 update (Or a 2.1 Custom Rom) installed BEFORE attempting to return to 1.5. One minor correction here. "Must" is too strong of a word. In my experience, you can use this method to bail out of a failed attempt to flash other ROMs besides 2.1. In my case, I couldn't get any official 1.5 update to work on my phone. So I took the chance and used the "time machine" to "reset" the phone so I could then install other 1.5 official updates. That did the trick, and I never had installed a 2.1 ROM. I can only speak from my experience, but that is what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Azurren Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Any reason why this excellent guide hasn't been stickied yet? :P Updated Direct links to FLB mod and some Frameworks. Added some more frameworks / boot animations. If you're framework / boot animation is NOT on the list it is not because I don't like you :D It is because I haven't found it yet.

The easiest way to get root access would be to install a custom rom, but if you install FLB Mod then these are already removed for you :D So your best bet would be to install a custom rom with these already removed. You can root your current rom and make the changes yourself but I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who doesn't know what they are doing :) (You can remove the Touch-Pal language packs without root. These packs use a hell of alot of storage and should keep you going for a while) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hadderz Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Please proceed to the following guide [here] If you are NOT Planning on installing a Custom rom on your device and wish to keep it official please follow these steps Step 7: Open your phones SD card via your computer, delete the "dload" folder Step 8: Go back to where you extract the 2.1 update. Open the CUSTOMIZED_HU folder and copy the "dload" folder to the root of your SD card By "Root" I mean do not place the file in any subfolders Step 9: Power off your Device. When the phone has fully powered off press and hold the following buttons: POWER + RED (End Call) + VOLUME UP You may release these buttons when the message "Preparing Update" appears on your screen Step 10: Confirm that you wish to update and allow the device to run it's course. The phone may get stuck on "Restarting" if so wait a few minutes then remove and re-insert the battery If your phone "Fails to Update" Please refer to the FAQ [here] Step 11: Allow your phone 5+ minutes to boot up for the first time. Your phone is now ready to use. Enjoy your new official 2.1 Pulse! If your phone Fails to boot or gets stuck in a "Boot Loop" Please refer to the FAQ [here] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your phone Fails to boot or gets stuck in a "Boot Loop" Please refer to the FAQ [here] Sorry total noob question here: This last bit the 'optional steps' I dont get what this is for... I want to install the 2.1 Tre swedish version and can follow steps 1-6 very simply, however If I stopped after step 6 would the 2.1 software be successfully installed on my pulse? I dont understand the reasons why i would run the optional steps 7-11? Could someone explain why you would run steps 7-11, to me it just seems like a repeat of steps 1-6. Also why couldnt you just install the 2.1 TRE update the way you did the december update - by placing it on the SD card - and then going into settings on the phone and selecting 'upgrade' ?/ Sorry for all the questions! Awesome guide though, very well done and thanks :) Had002001 The additional steps apply a Patch that fixes some issues with the original 2.1 upgrade. However these fixes can cause problems when used with custom roms (Which already have the fixes) So if you want to use the official update it is best to apply the patch, if not then leave it off :D Technically you could apply it in the same way as the december update.. But this way causes less problems :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
