for others pls make a POLL if your button is working or not in WM2005

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=22737

Been a while since the POLL Shows that there are more people who has experiencing the non-working rec and cam button in Magneto than those has a working button. Up to this moment there are no single explanation why this is happening ..

But it is not the number that are very intriguing in the POLL but its BOOTLOADER version, because we can easily distinguish does people who have a working button than those has not working button

:arrow:

If you have a BOOTLOADER 1.01, 1.02 or 1.03

Most Likely ALL your Button will work .. if it doesnt work .. just a little adjustment then it gonna work

:arrow:

AND if you have a BOOTLOADER 1.04 and 1.05

The Record button will only work if it is turn off(press power off once) and the buttonlock is off but it will not work if the device is ON or Total OFF (press power off twice)

and Camera button is not working in any type of situation (ON, Suspend(press power off once), total OFF(press power off twice))

:arrow:

BUT if you have 1.06 the results are mixed

if you are sure that your original Booloader Installed is 1.06, then same as those who have 1.04 and 1.05 your camera and record will not work if the device is ON

but some have a working button and has Bootloader 1.06 ..

im not saying that a ROM upgrade can upgrade the BOOTLOADER since it needs the bootloader to be Unlock or to be Unprotect before it changes the Bootloader which mostly of the Device Bootloader is Lock and Protected and im not sure if there is a ROM upgrade (.nbf) that can unprotect our Bootloader to Upgrade it although we had already a case in the past thread that bootloader is change due to rom upgrade..

Heres My list of ROM version that contains Bootloader 1.06

1.66.00 WWE

1.66.00 ITA

1.66.00 WWE

1.66FRA

1.66.01 GER

1.72.00 WWE

1.72.01 GER

1.75.00 WWE

2.02.t1 WWE

2.20.07 CHS - both Translated and not

PS. I cant find yet a ROM Upgrade(.nbf) than contain 1.04 and 1.05 bootloader but some 1.60 ROM (NOT ALL) contains 1.03 Bootloader.

also 2.06.00WWE doesnt contain a bootloader (or bootloader is blank/empty)

Now we first extract and compare the bootloader of those who have working button and uses 1.06 with those is nonworking button and uses 1.06 bootloader

Suprising we FOUND no SINGLE DIFFERENCES AT ALL .. so it means that it is not the BOOTLOADER ..

BUT WE CANNOT CONFIRMED if no one will try to Downgrade there bootloader for those non-working and upgrade there bootloader for working button. And Downgrading and Upgrading the Bootloader is surely a very Dangerous thing that you will do to your device .. i once explain it in this post

But Someone has to do it to end this Bootloader version Theory of non-working button .. and since im the KING of STUPIDITY .. i will do THis SimPLE STUpid ExpERIMENTATion to know if the Bootloader

is the MAIN Cause for a non-working Camera and Record BUTTON of SOME WM2005/WM5.0 user, including me ..
