Hello khanh248

Yes, it's what i'm thinking to ask you to degrade your device to WM5 as Helloworld1 mentioned. And i suspected the decreasing of memory size might be from incomplete of a junk file (error) during flash ROM.

However, Let's try with WM5 ROM (see instruction in 1st page for degrade ROM WM5).

PS: Check device's bootloader if it's not ver 1.01, flash it back first. Then start upgrage ROM again. Goodluck.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] khanh248:
now i can't upgrade using SDcard after found this problem. two months ago, i upgrade your rom using SDcard and it worked. but now, if i want to upgrade, i have use PC :(

my bootloader is 1.01. I tried downgrade WM5 by PC as Helloworld mention but unsuccessful.

OK, let try it one more time by using SDcard. i will show you what it work as soon as posible:D
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] khanh248:
hi takaiccc and helloworld!

I downgraded my device to WM5 by SDcard successfull. however, the main memory is still 42 MB. I tried to upgrade by PC but had the same problem which i post in page 353,354 (error 404 :"can not communicate with your device" or error 101 :" image corrupt"):confused:

I found in HP viewer that it recognize my device is just HP IPAQ, not HP 6828. do you think it is the cause of this problem?

And do you know another way to bootload radio firmware ( for example: using SD card)?
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
No HP asset viewer just show the one in registry.

Upgrading using PC via hpruu may be the key point to fix the corrupted flash ROM. It has once fixed some strange problem in my device.

eboot.nb0 and diskimg.nb0 are working with SD card. But other part may not.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] takaiccc:
Since 2009 till latest ROM WM6.5, i most did an upgrade via SD card. Before that I used to have unsuccessful many time (such as; device hang up, some communicate error but can't remember error msg, take long time & slow upgrade process,..etc).

See my suspicsion:

** upgrade via PC **

- USB continuity problem during upgrade ROM: It's intermittent problem. This is really hard to prove & fix it. (I used to have this issue also). Clean up contact both sides of device (mini USB) and USB PC and also do whatever to make it more fitting. Try another new cable (but it's might not help the cause is from mini port of HP)

PS: my mini USB port of HP used to lost connection (can't charging), but now it's normal.

** upgrade via SD **

- SD card itself is cause an issue: I have two SD card (1G & 2G). When i upgrade ROM, I almost use 1G (got together when i bought this HP). Now i don't use it anymore because some time don't see program i installed, unsuccessful when reboot device. But no issue on 2G, i just bought since 2009. So, if you have more one SD. You should try this too.

Hope above info help you.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] khanh248:
Thank for your support! 2 months ago, i have only 1GB SDcard and i could upgrade roms by it. But now it do not work so last week, i find 256 SDcard to upgrade and everything is ok. After downgrade to WM5 then upgrade to WM6.1 b229; the problem of main memory don't change but my device is more stable( less unconnected when make call)

Now i have to satisfy with him :D

So glad to talk & exchange experience in hp 6828 with you! :)
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] takaiccc:
Ok, congratulation.

BTW, your device might got unreliable memory (weak on some memory sector). Keep using it. :D

RW6815

Hi,

I just bought new hp ipaq rw6815, buat have some problems on original rom :

1. Device cannot do text messaging, it has sms menu, but nothing happen after tapping on it.

2. Cannot connect to wifi router for internet.

After seeing many roms, i thought to flash mine into the most stable, buit i doubt after finding these problems.

Any suggestion on new rom ? If flashing using new rom will eliminate previous messaging and wifi prblems, I;d be happy to do it.

Many thanks.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
Is there still NEW 6815? I doubt about it.

For the these issues, have you try to hard reset your device?

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
Is the liquid still using Android 1.6? 2.2 is like rocket while 1.6 is just civil jet plane. WM 6.5 is like autogyro and WM 6.1 is like single-propeller plane. WM 7? It is a hardware monster like an elephant on the plane :P
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] MBa@NL:
As my daily phone i'm using an HTC Touch Diamond (the first version) and in my opinion the RW6815 is much more faster and has a better touchscreen... it's because of the GPS that i'm using the Diamond.

But my RW6815 is still in use, by now it's functioning as my wall calender (with TodayAgenda), in the night it's syncing with Microsoft MyPhone and half an hour earlier my Diamond is syncing.

So "20100218b337" is still daily in use :D
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
That's greate. The Diamond's touch screen is very bad. I have tried it for a while and can't get used to it. I think as resistive screen, 6828 is one of the best.

can't update to wm6.5

Hi! I have been try to update to '6828-WM65-20090605-b317'. It's work.

But I try to flash my 6828 to another wm65 chs rom, it make my hp into 'semi-brick'.

I try the method you provioded to recover from semi-brick state. Now my hp can be flashed to wm6.1. However, I try to flash with '6828-WM65-20090605-b317', it doesn't work. My hp held at hp(blue+white) screen.

When I flash to wm6.1, it work again. Why??:confused:
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] dreamH6:
I have a lot of trouble on the radio side of my HP6815

First of all due to my operator I neeed a GPRS connection with proxy, and not all ROM have proxy setting menu for internet connection.

Usinig a rom where I can setup correctly connection parameters connection works the first time after soft reset, if I configure to check mail every hour I then found the connection icon (little E on signal indicator) looks like it's connected but it's not true, end cannot establish a new connection till new soft reset.

Wifi Does not work. It worked (with some trouble) with original WM5 rom, then I tested some rom download form this forum, and stopped to work.

Hp Asset viewer report:

Driver rev : N/A

Firmware ver: N/A

Hardware rev: 1.0

IP Address: N/A

Mac Address: N/A

Radio Present: Yes

Can somebody help me?
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] dreamH6:
work around: configuring "My Work connection"

The probem is timeout, or power management.

If I disable aurtomatic check of mail and I disconnect every time manually from GPRS, no more need of soft reset. But it's not a good workaround

this is not workaroundable, I need some idea
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] dreamH6:
i feel a little bit stupid answering to myself.:)

Problem is power management.

If connection goes down for timeout while I am using the device, it works, correctly, and if needed it reconnect automatically.

If connection goes down while device is in stand-by, for example for an automatic check mail and screen powered off, goes to the strange state, network is disconnected but terminal report connected, but with error
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] mns123:
@dreamH6

Why dont you try with J.S.Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3?(needs .Net Framework3.5) You can change many settings in Power mangement and Network. There is a "Disconnect after:...mts" in Menu->More settings-> Connections. Perhaps it will disconnect after checking mail till the next scheduled check.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
This method will almost surely fix such problem:

1. Use patch hpruu to revert to official WM5

2. Install any ROM.

This is because your current bootloader or radio have some problems. You need to re-flash all the parts.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] babsie:

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
Have the flashing done? Normally it will take 15 to 20 minute. If it only take about several minutes, you may flash something corrupt. You need to change a small SD card ( < 1G works better) to flash it again.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] babsie:
flashing ok...

sometimes stuck at boot screen...

sometimes suddenly come into whitescreen...

flashed about 30 minutes until device reboot itself...

flashing using 1GB miniSD HP brand, its been use for couple times for upgrading different 6828 and 6818...

any idea?
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
I wonder if it always happens. If not, just reset again will fix it.

If you can't boot into system. Try to use patched hpruu to flash back to WM5 and then flash any customized ROM. It will fix most of the strange problems.

Hi Besfen, helloworld1

I think that I understand enough to do ROM upgrade for my RW6828.

But, after DSSU update, it stops at Write extendRom.

And now my RW6828 can not power on even hold key and input batterry.

Any suggestion???

Thanks in advance

I followed these steps:

I know your problem, the radio part corrupts but the bootloader is normal. The faint screen with lines is normal. The radio part should be reflashed!

I see you can use atom's ruu so use it to flash corrupt radio.

put following files in the folder:

Device Software Update Utility.exe(download from first thread).

DSUU.exe

diskimage_Ver.nb0(Add header java make this from any diskimg.nb0)

nova_pda_033105.mot(attach)

vl1d_pda_Ver.mot(attach)

eboot.nb0(From HP, rename to this. Try not to include this at first)

and run Device Software Update Utility.exe

It works only if I plug my 6815 to a pc or with original HP recharger. I try 3 different Car lighter To USB adapter, The small battery status icon change to external power but orange light stay off, and if I use with a BT GPS as street navigator battery goes down.

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] helloworld1:
Yes, WM is out of date. Android is a modern mobile OS that can be compared with iPhone's iOS. At the same time Android is a very open OS. It is completely legal to hacking the ROMs from the source code. Unlike WM, we can only work with binary.

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] tahsineo3:
Hi, I recently got hold of an atom and wanted to upgrade it to wm 6.5 to use it as my backup phone. However, I ran into some problems.

I downloaded the latest wm6.5 rom (20100218b337), copied it to the memory card (1GB Kingston) and put the phone in bootloader mode. The phone detected the card and started to download the OS image. When the progress reached 100%, the following messages appeared on the bootloader screen.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'eboot.nb0'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'dm.nb0'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'flash.img'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'agent.mot'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'mot.mot'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'CPLD.img'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'assetInf.img'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'extended.img'.

SDDownload: Couldn't find file 'MDOC.img'.

After that, it starts a hard reset and then starts to flash the "HP iPAQ Multimedia Messenger" splash page every few seconds. This continues indefinitely (I've checked for 2 hours, nothing new).

I ran the bootloader again and ended up with the same result.

Could someone please tell me what I did wrong and how I can fix this?
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] tahsineo3:
My bad. Didn't realize that this rom was NOT for the O2 XDA atom.

Fixed it by installing wm6.5 atom rom from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=628026

Note to atom users: The Device Software Update Utility does not work in windows 7. Took me an entire day to figure this out since the utility starts up ok but always shows a connection error when you click "Upgrade." Works like a charm with Win XP.
