[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
I think its becoming apparent that either you really don't know what your doing or you really have not followed one instruction given.

Everything you need again is on my website! instructions on how to load the driver is in the zip file.

Have you even downloaded the instructions on how to flash the unit?

Look, if you having this much trouble just trying to figure this out with all the information available, maybe you should not be doing this. I suspect you are way over your head and if you brick your unit, your on your own. I suggest you find something else to play with that is easier to understand othewise. READ the instructions and check the other links to forums out on my website and try to understand what your doing. We are not going to hold your hand anymore.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
I'll give you one shot at doing this lets see if you can follow:

Everything you need again is on my website

1. Download instructions on how to flash hx4700

2. Download USB drivers and read the included text file on how to install

3. Download the Bootloader

4. Open instructions and read on how to install bootloader, where to put the files and how to get into bootloader mode.

5. Flash your device per instructions and reset per instructions.

This is about as much as I'm going to do. Your on your own at this point. As I said before, if you can't understand any of this, then don't do it and find something else to occupy your time with.

If you brick your device or mess it up, don't ask for help your on your own.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
Not sure what your talking about, it looks to me again you didn't follow the instructions on the installation of the bootloader. It should be in c:\bootloader or d:\bootloader and not in any other path.

As far as I know there is NO german 6.0 or 6.1 version
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lanii941:
oh i dont know that (should be in c:\bootloader or d:\bootloader)

thx i will try on this model
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
You see that is what I keep trying to explain to you, if you would just download the instructions on my website for flashing the 4700 all this info is in there and maybe you would not have such a hard time. But hey, I guess you like doing this the hard way..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lanii941:
hehe no but the bootloader i cant find pls give link for bootloader hehe i have it but dont know what for version do i need
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
You can't be serious?

I'm sorry, your going to have to try a bit harder to understand this stuff. You have bootloader, you didn't follow directions on installing, you won't download the instructions.. WOW.. have fun..

I installed the Win Mobile 6.1, taken from this site.. And I have 2 questions:

is it possible to use the storage as ram memory? When I open IM+ and Skype, is not possible to open also Opera, because the system automatically closes IM+ and Skype :(

With the old Win 2003 we could switch between memory for ram usage and storage usage.

Is it possible to install an application bar? Is so stressful to use everytime the so slow iTask button to switch between opened applications.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] grayme:

I think you have spectacularly managed to miss my point; the same that dpdurst struggled for pages of posts to impart on poor lanii941.

1). No

2). Try WKTask, works great for me.

Hi new here.

Succesfully insalled the new Windows Mobile and all is well. But I seem to have a glitch with Bluetooth. It works fine (using Internet explorer) but then after disconnecting it won't start up again and I can't even get into the Bluetooth settings.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that there is a Bluetooth glitch which occures acte upgrading WM but that it can be sorted out - but I can't find it anywhere.

Any suggestions?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
Here is what I can tell you about this. The BT stack appears to work fine when connecting up to a BT GPS reciever, I can connect/disconnect all day long with no problems.

Now then I have a bluetooth GPS receiver plugged into my serial port of my PC I use for talking between Flight Sim and my GPS for moving map. When I disconnect from that device, it will never reconnected. I have to reboot everything just to make another BT connection. I have never been able to get that part resolved.

The simply solution for import self cert is

just create a directory:

Old ActiveSync Problem Revisited

Retracted.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] VulcanTourist:
I tried the fake-server trick once before, not because I was having a problem but because of the claims of reduced battery drain. I'm not using it now, however, and ActiveSync only seems to run when I reset the device; when I terminate it, that seems to be the last I see of it until I reset again. I don't actually synchronize it with anything these days, so this is a good thing. I'm still using Kozhura's 6.0 revision 4, as far as I know (I've forgotten how to check).

/edit:

Well, it seems I actually DO have a server setting, though I don't recall doing it: the server is m.google.com, which seems like a really weird choice. As I said Activesync tries to start after every reset, but when I kill it it never attempts again. I don't know if that's the result of this server configuration or not.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DCurry:
Retracted.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] VulcanTourist:
I can't tell you what version of Activesync that I have running on my Pocket PC, but I can tell you that it's exactly the same version you have, assuming we're both using Kozhura's ROM. You're confusing the "client" side with the "server" side. As I said, I don't even have a version of Activesync installed on a desktop system and don't ever sync the Pocket PC now, and AFAIK it's only the Win32 software that has a version, per se. I can't even determine what version of the binary is in the hx4700, because there's no "About" function where it might display it. In any case, the Win32 version number is moot because that isn't what's running on the hx4700, and that version must be the same if we're using the same ROM. You don't get a new version of the ARM binary when you install a new version on a paired desktop system.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
Try changing the file \Windows\ActiveSync\CtrlLog.txt to "read only"

and/or with a registry editor change this key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ ActiveSync \ Engines \ {176F4FFD-F20C-4bd4-BDD7-01D0726C567B} \ Settings]
"SyncAfterTimeWhenCradled"=dword:00000000

Change the dword value to 0 as shown above, which means manual sync. The default value is 5, 5= 5mins, 15= 15mins, etc

You can do both these things with skTools.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
First, you need to be using a better file explorer program than the one included with WM. RescoExplorer or TotalCommander etc. If you don't have one of these yet, there very useful for lots of reasons. Now go into the options settings of the program and set it so that you can see all files, including those in rom, hidden...everything. Then if you navigate to the \Windows\ActiveSync folder you'll see CtrlLog.txt. Tap and hold it, choose properties, and change to read-only.

Second, I don't know which SKTools is right, I have the full version and I think there's a demo. As for the warning, I wouldn't worry about it. I always get warnings saying "the software you are installing was not designed for your version of windows" and it's never a problem.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
It's alive !! LOL

:o ... well, sorry it didn't work for you. Have you seen this activesync thread:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=477720

There's also a setting in sktools that stops activesync from connecting at all (sktools-tuneup-activesyncpage-autoconnect set to no) I don't know the reg key for that.

BTW when changing any setting in registry it's a good idea to right away turn off power, wait a few seconds, turn on, then soft reset.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
What about setting activesync to not start with windows (in XP: start\run\type:msconfig\OK\startup tab\uncheck wcescomm(activesync)\OK)

Alkor ROM 21054 question?

I often used PhamQuang PDAViet Rom, but after installing lot of programs, the icon started blinking, touch pad out of control and programs took time to start.

So I move to Alkor ROM 21054 (many thanks to dpdurst for collecting all ROMs). Modify it with 12 MB page pool.

At first, it's very fast but i have trouble with reset (must unplug battery for reset), then still the same trouble with touch pad - automatic get something pressed for the left or the right... even i don't touch it at all.

With 10-20 softwares installed, i can do reset in normal way (thanks God!) but the touch pad continues working incorrectly.

I wonder if anyone could help?

Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
turn it off. its the worst part of the 4700 IMHO.. the layers stick and you get phantom presses... i had to turn mine off so i could use it at all..either that or turn the sensitivity way down....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
start/settings "synaptics navpoint" navpoint sensitivity to heavy touch...

also check navigation mode not cursor mode.

this should effectively disable the touch pad .

Dropped my hx4700 into water 2 years ago. Now, after extended drying period it is working well again. So, I upgraded it to WM6.1. Everything seems better and faster. Installed Opera Mobile 10 and noticed that all images have pixel-doubling (like Pocket IE used to have). I think older Opera (8.65; 9) used native resolution for showing images. Anybody knows how to fix it?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] delios101:
Now I am in a final conclusion that its a little bit strange. My configuration is a Router Modem Zyxel P662HW in WPA-PSK WLAN and I have conected one of the four ports of this router to a USR Access Point in WEP protection at 128bit. At any configuration Zyxel was my basic router that gives the IP address to Ethernet ports and WLAN.

First test was with the USR Access Point off there was no way to connect with the Zyxel.

Second test was with USR on. I am trying top connect to the USR (WEP protected) and I have no luck. Then it discovers the WPA-PSK Zyxel router and it works fine. To do that test you need to have cleared any known wifi settings
