Hi ikar

HIHAAAAAAAAA!!!!

That only means that my W800 for uploading roms and be wrong / corrupt, I thought not charged battery (not lit light), and that's why I said that the cables were different. (Or there are several models of cables, but I do not think)

That news, then cables P168 also serve for the W800!!! (Unless someone says otherwise.)

Hello

Erevybody have detected GPS in PC?

The windows media mobile (in vista) detecs good the mobile phone.

But when i search for gps nothing.....
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] jjae6:
Hello, I understand that you want to make the W800 is a external gps to Pc.

In other words, you need to create a virtual port on your pocket PC and manage it on your PC.

One of these programs can be: FransonGPSgate

Franson GpsGate is a software program that allows you to share your GPS signal with just about everything on your Pocket PC, computer and even with other computers and devices over Bluetooth or a network - GPS is shared beween several applications:

Im so happy !! Thanks Ikar (it is an old trick?? I havent seen it before..)

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL :

I have the REAL solution ^^ MOUHAHAHA, Sorry but Im so happy !!!!

TO HAVE YOUR SMS JUST

REMOVE YOUR PIN CODE

AT THE START OF THE PHONE (You can disable it in the phone setting)

Now,I wanna your congrats

Regards

Ps: with that,we can know the problem I think.I think that when you enter the pin code,the phone doesnt unlock the sms network.. When you have a new sms,the sim card need to look for the entered pin code and doesnt find it or find a wrong one so the sms are not showed and are stocked. Its my theory,maybe its wrong ^^

language

Can you break it down on how to change the language to english. And exactly what program I need to edit the registry. This is my second w800, my first one fell and the screen started changing colors so I bought another and I think I made a bad choice. Please help me.....
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] jjae6:
Hello this will only work if the version installed on your W800 (e.g. v100 italian) is the same as the files to copy (eg v100 english)

But this procedure it remains a fudge, only how to experiment and the system stays still many things to translate, some text data in the registry......

and You only succeed, if goes well, a mixed system with two languages...

Not recommended!!!

The right step: by a PC program must be loaded a version of their language (eg Eten G500 (v110) english ) within your W800....

Why the other hand, the LCD colors might have been loosened the hardware connection or not making a good contact internally? Any blow on the floor?

Just remove the battery

The soft reset is bugged on the phone. I mean by hard reset only the fact to remove the battery and put in again in the phone. You have just to remove the Sim pin fonction at the Phone setting. So when the phone starts,you wont have to enter the sim code and you can phone and RECEIVE sms.

Sorry for my bad english and the confusion.

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] FHEBERT:
No, i don't saw your post. Thanks I'll test.

For subject "no receive SMS",

If the deactivation of pin code allows the reception of SMS, it is still a problem and I've found a trick. It's necessary to clean sim card contact. Otherwise, you will only receive text messages contacts unregistered.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] solatges:
I was pessimistic and I had tested your trick. With pin code on and no contact in my sim card contact,I dont receive sms. So please,explain better what you do.

Ps: For me,its not a problem to remove the pin code (If somebody steal your telephone,there is 90% of chances to be turned on ^^)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] FHEBERT:

Strange

I confirm that I have all my sms incoming from registered or unregistered contacts. Maybe you have installed and activated a black list program or something like that. You should retry cause you sould keep your contact on the sim card,its more secure.

Nb: I have noticed that a lot of programs cant use the sim repertory so copy all your sim contacts to your phone memory too and you shouldnt have no more problem.

how to make Windows XP recognizes W800 ?

Hi everyone, PLEASE help me ! I've read the 24 pages on this topic, but I couldn't find an answer, if someone has already reply I'm really sorry for that.

But please how can I make my Windows XP sp2 recognizes my W800 ? I already installed the MS Active Sync 4.5 and still didn't work. I need to connect on my PC so I can install new softwares. Is necessary any additional driver or something like that ?

Windows XP sp2 (in portuguese, I'm from Brazil)

Does anyone now to make it work ?

Thank you very much in advance

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] jjae6:
The recognition process must be automatic (Plug & play).

In "The activesync icon" (taskbar): click the "right mouse button" to show a drop-down list, in "Connections Settings" - must be enabled "Allow Usb connections" and "open activesync when my device connects"

Have you tried.. to disconnect the anti-virus and firewall software (or enable ports)?

Have you tried.. you plug the cable into another computer?

Many things you can be read here:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/help/activesync/default.mspx

If all this does not work, it's possible that the cable does not make good contact or because our wonderful software phone (There is a activesync icon in the W800,	or something similar, where it must choose the USB cable.)

W800 (CECT)

Hi everyone,

I see we have all been having such fun with these cect phones. It is a great shame actually as it is one of the few to come out of the cect family with a WM platform, even though it is a very good copy of the real Microsoft WM5.

Basically, the W800 is quite a good phone/pda, the problem is that all the OEM and SYS files can be shipped out in different languages, (mine included).

So we are left with the singular problem in that nobody has a flashable ROM that will fix this thing and dispell all the pundits.

Before reducing my phone to a pretty brick, I did take a backup of this rom and I am now in the process of building this rom back up again into a useable form, a friend of mine is also looking at the 'soft reset', or lack of it, issue. JJae6 has worked hard to delve into this thing and has also posted the full rom in .RAR. So when I get my rom built up again with a few other little nicey's added I will share it with you, but by then at least we WILL have a ROM that we can flash in, then we can look into taking this machine a little further. Anyone know of an RUU that works with this thing so that I can make it an easy job for anyone to do. The other option I am considering is to use the T-Flash card to upgrade the thing automatically all in one hit, plug it in and let it go, so to speak. Comments welcome.

Hi,I have been following this thread and have had the same problems others have been reporting but my worst problem is the phone reception.

The signal strength can go from 4 bars down to none,If I hold the phone up to the window at my home I can get a good signal but if I turn around

it can it can drop all the way down.This problem also happens at different locations.As a result I am constantly having calls where the voice cuts in

and out and sometimes I cant make a call.

I have put my sim card in a cheap nokia and I get constant full strength and I have flashed the rom with 2 versions for the eten g500 but it made no difference.

I also cant get into phone settings,it always says wait 15 seconds and try again although twice in the past it let me in.

Anyway I was wondering if anyone else has noticed these problems and if anyone has any suggestions. I would also like to thank everyone who has helped out in this thread.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] jjae6:
Hi lekkie.

Yes, I know the method to load the ROM from the memory card. (Sdcard method)

The user should know how to make the W800 in bootloader mode.

It is a dangerous process, and not recommended, only as a last resort, and only when it is not possible to ROM upgrade through the cable,	or an error has appeared...

And if that does not work.... there is no going back (not known for now).

You can try this:

Rom loader SDcard method by jjae6:

=================================

You need to read and understand other methods to ROM load through cable and should know hot to put the W800 in bootloader mode.

Read my previous Tips pdf post..

Well....

We need a card reader/writer for PC.

Format your microSD as FAT (microSD: less or equal than 1 GB)

Rename "temp.dat" to "temp.bin" and copy to microSD card. (select last G500 w110 version rom)

Copy your "USBDLUpdate_Console.exe" (found with temp.dat in your %temp% PC directory) to microSD card.

Insert your microSD in your W800.

Put your W800 in bootloader mode.

(The battery must be charged, or the power cable connected, Not connected on the PC)

If all goes well the system will recognize the files and start to copy ROM in the system .... We must not touch anything .... When finished, the system will reboot and start as a hardreset.

Warning:This is the ultimate solution,

I have no responsibility for this procedure.

You can lose your bootloader.( If this procedure goes wrong.)

Luck!!!
