Task 29 Tool on CDMA???

GaryMcQ · #1 (**permalink**) 03-26-2010, 10:18 PM

Below is a link about a tool called Task 29 I ran across over at XDA Developers. The GSM folks have been having really good luck using this tool on their Touch Pro2's to sort of "reformat" the phone between flashes. The swear that it works better than Clean Storage, Hard Reset, Flash Dance, and all the other methods we have become accustomed to performing on our phones. I am curious as to whether this would work on CDMA phones, or if there is something comparable which has been written for CDMA. after reading about this, does anyone have any ideas?

I like the idea. I read the thread. My flawed thinking and wanting this to work may lead me to try it out.

EDIT: Saw your postings over on XDA, way to help out the CDMA community. Keep us in the loop. This program will be very valuable to all the flash addicts.

I agree. I am absolutely tempted to try it, but my phone is a company phone, with no insurance. Can't afford for something to go wrong. Anyway, if you succumb to the temptation to try it on CDMA, please post and let us all know.

If I can work the nerve up I will definitely put up what happens. Mine is personal, but I don't have insurance, and I am pretty sure they would look through the contents, or lack there of the phone and know I wiped it.

I am seriously thinking about it, I am up for renewal at the end of April and my TP2 was free from USCC.

I still haven't heard from Agent 47 (the developer), or anyone who has tried this on a CDMA device. The guys over at XDA Developers are constantly singing praises about this tool.

I know, it just hard to have a very good possibility to ruin a phone.

+1 Thx for the find..

I gave this a go after i was seeing issues with a custom rom installing correctly. After using the tool and reflashing the rom the issues with the install went away..

This will help cut down the time it takes to flash dance for sure..

I'm not sure what that means (flash guide). Did Willyjay's post confirm that this has been done?
