I had posted the same thing in a seperate thread. My cousin was over this weekend and when we tried it on his we got the same error message. Basically everything worked but he had no sound. Not able to adjust profiles and anytime a call or email came through it would be silent. We had to downgrade him to Rogers stock firmware after that.

I was hoping, there's just not much available out there for 7520's.
Thanks

I have no idea about this. I went through this process three times, once for each time I replaced my unit, and I did it exactly they way I detailed, and I have had zero issues. I wish I could be more helpful, sorry.

mortgageguy and Nitty - which one of you is synncere at HoFo? Secondly, did both of you copy/paste the code or did either of you go through step by step and delete the vendor IDs yourself? I am trying to find a correlation here.

Synn is a relative of mine who is in town right now. His berry got fubar'd I haven't tried on mine yet. Anyways when we found your update none of us wanted to take a chance and mess something up by accident so it was a copy paste job.

In that case I suggest you try the step by step method - maybe my paste is fubar'd as well. I will check it out. I assure you the step by step method is not difficult. I have had SEVERAL ppl PM me with all positive results. If you do step by step and it works let me know - I may just delete the easy portion, because the step portion is so easy as well.

I have 2 8700's here so I will try it again. 1 with the easy method and the other the manual way. We'll see what happens.

Lex Luthor · 02-27-2006, 12:53 PM

Both didn't work. I don't know what went wrong but that same error message showed up when everything was finished.

Java.lang.NullPointerException

So I followed everything *exactly* and used the "easy cut and paste" method. Everything installed and re-initialized properly, but, I get the Java.lang.NullPointerException at start-up and then when trying to edit a profile.

The bottom line is no ringers, tones or other noises work.

Any ideas?

Thanks--

I'm going to try just removing the Zen theme and seeing if that will work. If not, I may downgrade back for now.

Seattle18 · 02-27-2006, 03:12 PM

I am stumped. It worked flawlessly for me and several others who have PMd me with thanks. I will check over everything once again and see if anything jumps out at me.

Edited to allow only the Zen theme. Re-loaded (just a few items this time) and boom- sound!!!

Can you see my smile?

Thanks, Seattle18.

P.S. Last time I had to resend service books and then activate it in Options.

There might be a line too long for the web page text window truncating something that you posted?

Very possible. Still looking over everything.

Seattle18 · 02-27-2006, 03:35 PM

I think I got it - please no one else try this install just yet, I am fixing the code and will repost very soon.

Lex Luthor · 02-27-2006, 03:43 PM

Thanks Seattle18!

Megabit I'm glad you got it working. I downgraded.

There is one thing I noticed and it may not be relevant, but just as you had to delete the spaces between 15 and 2 (or whatever it was), there was another situation where there was a space between the pipe and the 197.

Ex:

|15 2|153|161|166|167|168|176|188|192|193|194|195|196| 197|198 (etc)

I removed the extra spaces in both places. Seemed like the right thing to do.

joshkerr · 02-27-2006, 04:24 PM

I'm getting that java error on startup too. I followed the instructions to a T. Can someone post exactly what they did to fix it?

That is part of the problem. Additionally, a few lines down there are the sound files. When you copy them and then paste them into your Notepad, the .cod changes to .c od for some reason. You have to go to those lines and delete the extra space. I cannot find any other unneccessary spaces, but if there are any please let me know. Someone try doing these two things and install. If it works without problem let me know and I will find a way to fix the pasted code. Maybe someone has a web space where they can post it in its original form to ensure no spaces?
