Hi bundleofjoy, after foxbatul's comments, I started checking Google for further info about the TomTom Version. It has nothing to do with the ROM, so no matter what you flash, you will still have the problem.

It seems to be Tomtom6 that's causing all the problems with BT and sound. It seems to replace a few bluetooth Dlls. :mad: Do you have Tomtom installed? is it version 6.000 or superior?

Try searching Google for tomtom 6 problems with Bluetooth. I have not tested it yet, but to resolve this, you will need to hard-reset the device to restore the files (I tried replacing the files but it does not allow me, says they are in use.) then install a higher version of tomtom, 6.010 or 6.020, as long as it's not 6.000

I will give it a shot next weekend.

My device has 128 Rom and 64 RAM. I install all programs, including TT on SD card (1Gb Card)

Good Luck!! Let us know if this solves your bluetooth problems as well.

Saltin!

Problems with ActiveSync

After flashing Fix4 ActiveSync is no longer working even before installing any programs. The desktop computer connects to the hx4700 so I can access files, but then ends with the error message "Synchronisation could not be finished ...". With reflashed Fix3 everything works fine.

Does anybody experience similar problems?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] saltinbanquis:
I have to quote my self here!!! I could not wait till the weekend!! so I tested it. I reset the device, installed tomtom 6.010 and now Bluetooth and sound are working.

P.S. I installed Fix4 with no issues so far...

Thanks Everyone.

I can't really make a2dp work. I succeded to connect my headphones to a HTC Tytn II, and it worked beautiful, but when i return to Ipaq 4700 , it simply can't connect. I can make a pairing with the headphones, but when i press connect, it just disconnects me and tells: please verify that you device is in range and the selected service is working. Well the device is in range, and the service is up and running. I can't figure out what's happening: fix 3 and 4, both have the same problem. The headphones are Logitech (those that break, and stolen by HP, and rebranded)

Hi all, I need some light here please. Im reading the nice features that have WM 6.0, but Im not really sure if I can upgrade my Ipaq. Here are the specs:

the calendar database found corrupted

I tried to add a new appointment and it says database corrupted and i have the fix4 Rom.Can someone pls help??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hx4700 Killer:
I put the Fix 4 on as soon as it was released last friday. I played with it all weekend but ended up returning to Fix 3 Last night.

Issues I had:

1. Bluetooth sync was sporadic. It would work one time then not the next. Sometimes tweaking settings in the connection fixed it some times not (ie... security and authentication check boxes)

2. Active Sync to exchange via WiFi was sporadic also. It would say it synced and the date of sync even showed it was updated but then I would hit the OWA page of the exchange server there were emails there that my PPC hadn't downloaded. Soft reset and sometimes it would work after.

3. Activsync when cradled started acting up. I would get a message saying I couldnt sync with the settings I had on both the PC and the PPC and nothing was different or wrong with my settings than with Fix 3.

4. I noticed several things seemed way more sluggish than in Fix 3. One thing in particular was the today screen. I bought WeatherPanel Pro and have used it since 2003SE. I like it a lot but I noticed in Fix 4 whenever I would close apps and return to the today screen it would take up to 25 seconds for the weatherpanel today panel to appear, not so with Fix 3

5. Have to soft reset fairly regulary.

Before anyone asks, I actually reflashed Fix 4 a second time. That time Clearing the Memory ( Contacts + Messaging + Soft Reset button) before and after flashing to make sure it was clear and Fix 4 behaved the same way after both installs.

After Returning to Fix 3 all of the above issues have dissappeared.

Khozura, thanks for all your hard work I do not write this to complain or bash this project for without it my PPC would not be what it is today. Thanks!

Fix 4 works for me but is sluggish

I haven't had any real problems with my 4700 and Fix4, but it does seem a little sluggish. Nothing major, like the HP version of WM5, but is noticeable. Since I haven't had time to install all my applications with Fix4 I am running with a Sprite Restore from Fix3, so there may be issues with this installation that are unique to my setup. When I get some time I'll try a clean boot of Fix4 and re-install my applications.

Try to setup up activesync on tour pc again... remove the pda from the list and connect it again. I've solved doing this.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sanjay1951:
Interesting that some are having performance issues with R4. Fortunately I suppose, but my experience with this release has been quite good so far.

I installed R4 several days ago and have not noticed any sluggishness except when the compaction thread runs - but this was the case with all previous releases AND WM5. I don't have any performance measurement tools so have no empirical evidence, but R4 seems fairly quick. I have

all

applications installed on an SD card.

R4 including Bluetooth and WiFi has been very stable for me. The only time I find a reboot is needed is when I remove and insert the SD card on which all my apps are located.

Would be great if someone could do a performance test on this release to see how this release compares to R3. If someone can tell me how to test this, I would be happy to run a test and post results.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xunah:
I see we are talking about speed problem... The only one problem i find with Rel4 is when I start Tomtom... sometimes i need to reset the device.

But What about Live Messenger? Why it's not included in the ROM?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cyberdude_pete:
WIFI on/off problem

Seems that under version4, my WIFI is a little unstable. well, I don't have any disconnect issues, once it's turned on, HOWEVER, when I initially turn it on, it switches on, I get a busy icon, then it turns off. I then have to click it again, I get the busy icon, then it's fine.

This seems to happen EVERY time I use it.

Bluetooth radio seems fine (Even under TomTom).

On athird clean install of R4, I tried to do a sprite restore from R3 back-up via SD card. When I inserted the SD card in, it took 25 seconds before the sprite backup screen was displayed; with R3 it takes less than 3 seconds....

There's definately something going on which is causing latency, but it appears to be focused on launching applications rather than running them afetr they have been executed.

Application issues

I too have had major issues (for me) I have not overcome yet.I run run a Land Survey program (one of several,but,so far only tested one. Carlson Surv CE.carlsonsw.com)Locks up,or completely exits program,when I attach my Otterbox keypad.(this new RELEASE 4)Have flashed twice,hard reset ect,Program runs fine,untill attaching Keypad, Keypad also works outside of this program fine (just a new issue,have not tested robotics yet either) minor issues from Sprite Restore, I think its best to use restore only on same version.(New core, so reload apps seams to solve a lot of minor issues,delete all accts and reinstall, took care of Wi-Fi issues, no issues with BT found)I think the latency is more noticable. Maybe time for NavPoint to go.Still very impressed and Thankfull, as other versions will still work,;) Learning a lot and this is exciting and fun.

Navpoint trick

I've very often problems of lagging... I've read that there's a trick to delete it... Bu I didn't find it... Please, help me!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sanjay1951:
I do not have Sprite backup but did the same with my GPS program (which installs from an SD card). The startup time was 5 seconds. This appears to be consistent with other apps that start - except for Pocket Music - which takes forever. But it did that with previous versions too.

My apps are all on the SD card and I have deleted the NavPointService registry key. I also have the PPCTechs 128M upgrade. Wonder if that makes a difference? Anyway, I will look for a performance measuring tool and post results I get. If someone could do that with R3, then we will have numbers to look at.

I hope you do not mind me asking!

I have an IPAQ 4700 which has Windows 2003. I tried WM5 and it was awful and I had to go back to 2003. I would love to try WM6 but have a few questions

1) If it is a disaster, could I go back to 2003 - if so how?

2) Is it straightforward to do - or is a lot of editing of system files needed?

Thanks in advance

2)Sometimes ppc become very slow, i would like to delete navpoint but i don't know which is the registry key
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sanjay1951:
You will need to use a registry editor (I use Resco).

HKLM>Services>NavPointService. Just select it and delete it. Then flush the registry by resetting the device. Go back to check to make sure it is gone.

Hope this helps you.

Hi

1. Do you get the "USB>" prompt?

2. Have you followed through with the correct sequence of commands (i.e "password BOOTLOADER")?

3. in case you get an "Unable to sync with host" error make sure you do not use

backslashes ("\") in your command syntax but only slashes ("/") instead.

As long as you have the WM2003 ROM then you should be able to go back and relash with that ROM. Yes its the straightforward just same as flashing to WM5 or WM6
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sanjay1951:
I can only refer you to Menneisyys's blog on the 4700. Although he will not comment on WM6, he has a wonderful review of kozhura's WM5 release. WM6 is based on WM5 so can benefit from the same tweaks. He's the expert on why this works, so you may want to read his blog at: http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=2046&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#more2046

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] F4ipnoy:
First time posting but ive been following this thread for a long time. Like everyone else I want to say thanks to Kozhura for bringing life back to my 4700.

I have learned alot from this forum and wanted to share what I found worked with the lag issues some have been experiencing with Fix4 because i had them as well, hopefully im not repeating a post if it has already been stated and I hope it is helpful to some. At first I was concerned about the compaction issue and how some have stated to load everything onto storage to minimize its effects, which i did. For me, I found that this actually caused filesys to kick in more than usual and soft resets would not stop it... what i realized was that some applications like Calligrapher and pocket plus actually cause the filesys to run more often if they are on a storage card for whatever reason, (I didnt experience this happening on Kozhura's WM5). So my solution was to move all today and start up applications back to main memory... now it runs faster and more stable than the wm5 version. also some one mentioned that wifi does not work the first time after boot up, i noticed that the wifi does turn off but if you wait for 2 seconds without touching anything the wifi turns back on and then connects automatically.

So again thanks for the great forum and thanks Kozhura for all your hard work!

Certificate Installation Can Be Made To Work!!!

I have posted a solution that I have been told by others works just fine for getting certs installed. Please use the search tool on this thread to find it. I will only say here that it involves using WM5 to install the cert and export the reg entry then import that reg entry in to WM6 and it WORKS!!! I use it for WPA and exchange certs and had to use this method to solve my problem.

If you have or know someone who has a WM5 box you should be able to get them to import the .CER file and export the Key without yourself having to revert to WM5.
