booo. i was following the Newbs guide to Herald modification (byTylerC161) and it looks like i bricked my phone. right now it won’t go past the t-mobile splash screen. i guess i need to start all over again. < 30minutes later and i’m already playing around with the latest touch-it rom on my wing. woot!

how to upgrade your t-mobile wing to touch-it v2.3

  1. sync/backup your wing one final time.
    delete the activesync partnership on your windows machine.
  2. grab this [TylerC161 Wing Newbie Kit.zip]
  3. copy the rar to you storage card on the wing & unrar it
    (as you install, the cabs will get deleted, might as well put a full copy on there.)
  4. start going through the folders from the TylerC161 wing newbie kit.
    remember to follow the Newbs guide to Herald modification
  5. hold the camera button and hit the reset button on the side. continue to hold the camera button while the phone is booting.
  6. connect the wing to your pc.
  7. run the ruu.exe on your pc. follow the prompts.

    ruu installer 1ruu installer 2ruu installer 3 ruu installer 4ruu installer 5ruu installer 6ruu installer 7ruu installer 8ruu installer 9ruu installer 10

  8. after the phone reboots, go through the screen alignment screen, skip the next 2 sections, then be prepared to hit the soft-reset button before the customizations get installed.
  9. after it reboots, connect via usb & copy over the aserg policies, cert_specs, and enablerapi cabs over to the wing and install them.
  10. put the phone in airplane mode (turn of the phone in the com settings)
  11. soft-reset the phone then run the 1_UPGRADE_ROM.bat script from your pc. ignore any errors then do a hard-resest after the cmd window tells you (hold both softkeys & hit the reset button to do a hard reset. continue to hold the softkeys while the phone boots. when prompted hit the green phone/connect button and cross your fingers.
  12. hopefully you see the touch-it 2.3 boot screen and have to re-align
    touch it 2.3 splash & align screen
  13. go play with the phone. touch-flo is fun!
