Very interesting indeed! My 4700 battery is just about gone and so I will have to check further into this option. Otherwise, my old device works as well anything else I've seen.

Thanks you.

I have just updated my webpage, it has many of the version now listed on the front page of this thread, has some new ones not posted and includes also Hx2000 series PPC and also the original WM5 for the 2000 and 4700 series. I have also added link to USB drivers for vista, they appear to remove any hassle flashing PPC in Vista now. Also updated links to different forums and instructions in PDF format. Enjoy

Root Certificate Install Problem Soloution

I have lost count of how many ROM's ive installed on this hx4700 but every rom seemed to share one of the same issues which is installing a root certificate.

I needed to install a root certificate which wans't on the device so I could use an exchange server which required ssl. I searched around the internet for a long time and I never found an answer.

The error message was as follows:

"The certificate root was not successfully added. Please restart the device and try again"

I thought it may be because i move a lot of dll's and programs onto the compact flash card.

The Soloution was allot easier than i assumed, just create a directory:

\windows\system\CertDtls

and then i could open the certificate and it would install and then tell me that it had installed the certificate.

Just thought I would post it for the next person to hopefully find in google and save them a few hours.

Just for reference I am running Sanjay's ROM, SL61V3, and I'm quite impressed with the stability so far. Its like a new PDA

off topic: android

Google's Android source code was finally released yesterday 21.10.08.

Don't know if this could be somehow used for our "old faithful"

Anybody know more about this?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mad-Cat:
Wow

Google's Android i wonder if anyone will get this working with the 4700 not sure how much use it will be with it though but it would be great to see..

I different questions sorry im rather new to pocketpc's but is there any reason when i copy a mp3 to my device media player cant play it im running 6.1 just not sure thanks

It may be that you have not updated the library? I have over 3 gigs of MP'3 on my device never had a problem
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
Huh what library?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
Don't really know a lot about TT since I use Co-Pilot. But did you have an earlier version of TT that worked? I had no issue's with CP in any version of OS I ran on my PPC. This sounds definitely like a TT issue not a PPC issue. Maybe try this?

Rename BtCoreIf.dll in the Windows directory to BtCoreIfold.dll

Perform a soft reset and BtCoreIf will be rewritten with sound working.

Dial up problem

Hello.

I flashed my hx4700 using alkor flash. Everything works fine: wifi, irda, bluetooth. But there is one BUT: I can not use dial up networking on my hp. When I had 2003SE OS I have configured my phone and ppc to work together and give me internet over gprs. Now situation looks:

1. I choose dial-up from blotooth manager and connection from another screen.

2. I see "Connecting circle" on ppc and my phone's icon shows incoming connection but only for 1 second.

3. After it ppc disconects from phone and shows: "phone resource needed and phone is off".

When I am trying to connect to my laptop (using Personal Area Network) situation looks the same. Connection fails on the same point and with the same information.

I have written that BT is working because I can use a2dp, send contacts, files etc.

Besides this fact in the Start->Settings->Connections->Connections i see only one line (not link): "Bluetooth Work Settings".

Do You now sth about it?

Dawid.

I have got additional info: when I have fired InternetExplorer on ppc I have got a message "not connected to Internet" or sth like this and little access point icon was shown on start bar. When I have clicked it there was Settings link which get me to Connections mentioned above.

But still any progress...

I flashed pda with Kozhura and Dial-up is working now but still I can not synchronize over blueTooth.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MagooChris:
Well I finnaly got my Sync port fixed and I've looked at two roms: Sanjay's lite rom and Ramsses fix of Kozhura's rom. But I seemed to be having issues with it slowing down and becoming inusable, plus some games I had on HP's WM5 didn't want to even open. (I also had issues trying to get Navigator 7 to see my bluetooth GPS, but that may be Nav 7). So I was thinking that maybe I was using up too much memory space. So without sending it away to get more memory added (I don't have the money right now), what options do I have? Also, can someone tell me which is better to have: more free "storage" or "Program" memory, as each of the roms listed above have different amounts.

Thank you all :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
well i dont' think in this case storage or progam memory are going to help much since its not adjustable. If you could then program memory would be the way to go. I had issue with the GPS in Sanjay lite rom, once I switched between the plane and car GPS then it would crash. I think that with nothing loaded you have barely 30 megs of free ram left over or a bit less. That should run what you need rather slow. If you have anything loaded in ROM move all of it to the storage card to free up ram.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MagooChris:
Thanks for that,

so I should look at installing everything I can on my SD card? I had installed games and Navigator to the SD but not progrmas. Would it be safe to have today plugins run from the SD card?

Also there is something I don't quite understand with these roms. The HP Asset Viewer shows that I have 128MB of "ROM" and 64MB of "RAM". From searching around I found that the "RAM" is the "Program" memory and the "ROM" is the "Storage". What I also read is that the rom image is stored in "Storage" so that it won't be lost.

Sanjay's lite rom, after a Hard reset shows this:

Total Storage: 82.59MB

Free Storage: 80.17MB

Total Program: 54.3MB

Free Program: 33.84MB

Ramsses fix of Kozhura's lite rom, after a Hard reset shows this:

Total Storage: 82.59MB

Free Storage: 79.84MB

Total Program: 57.81MB

Free Program: 36.5MB

So which is better for running a few programs at once?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
I think either would work, if you need the extra 3 megs ram then Kozhura of course. I don't have this issue as I have 128 megs ram and rom so I don't notice any of this stuff. On my device I have today panel and launcher run from device and everything else is loaded on the SD or CF card.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
the "ROM" you see is the flash Rom where the operating system is written to. this is where WM2003SE or WM5 or WM6.1 are put.

the storage age vs program is storage is what used to be ipaq filestore. it is now used as "persistant" storage. this is where you can install programs to instead of ram. it is also why we do not have the memory slider anymore.

we do not get to use all of the ram because it is used by the operating system. the page pool takes 4 meg... sometimes 8 meg depending on rom flashed. the rest is used for installed programs ,windows bits that need to be written to etc... lots of little and sometimes large files....

I have been using Sanjay's V3lite rom now for a while(>6 months) and do not have a problem with it. there are a few idiosyncrasies to it.. like wifi not starting first time and having to do it twice... but you learn to live with it...lol

i have tomtom6 installed and occasionally it doesnt start first time. but a second press starts it... these are a small price to pay for a much better rom and being able to use my little mate for a few more years....

Hello.

Could someone tell me how big can be cf card in hp4700 with Kozhura rom? Capacity of course, not dimensions;P
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
I use a bluetooth gps receiver and this talks to the 4700. The software I use is either Pocket FMS or a new one that is free called APIC.. For flight sim 2004 I use a program called GPSOUT.dll that talks through com 8. I setup a bluetooth receiver on my PC and setup incoming port 5 and outgoing port 8. I then start up FS and go to bluetooth manager and search bluetooth devices. com 5 is the one incoming to the PC. I setup a shortcut and run this. On the GPS program I use com 8 since that is outgoing from the PC and I have full GPS setup and running.

Here is a shot using my 2755
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
I have used 4 gig on CF and SD with no problem - total of 8 gigs
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
you should be able to use the 32G and 64G possibly even the 100G that is around....CF standard allows up to 137G addressable space...on mobilitysite.com people report no problems with the 16 and 32 G CF cards . most get them through newegg......... but before you buy ask to test a card to see if it does work.....

i only have a 4G seagate microdrive and a 2G CF card for mine.. also use a 2gSD card as well......

Yep any bluetooth gps receiver would work for the helicopter. You can pick them up from Ebay for under 79 bux. For the home PC you need a bluetooth usb receiver. I use the one from anycom. Its like 22 bux.

Probably a stoopid question, but why a GPS with the flight sim? Sorry I just don't understand you are not moving so what does it do?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
Well my chair is not moving but the airplane is right? I'm still flying the plane in FS so why not use the GPS to practice with as well. Keeps me current with new software changes, and with practice using the FS and GPS when I get in the plane and fly its just like second nature since I have been practicing at home with it. No different then practicing IFR flight on FS, keeps me sharp.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lhasistos:
Sorry , another stupid question ,

In your chair your GPS brings you a static position , you cant simulate a rute. Try NAVGPS pro , its for fly and have simulator , ppc and PC version , and if I not bad informed have connectivity with FS . But the principal work its for REAL FLIGHT , Im use and its very good flying soft , in ground you can work with routes , flight plan , and simulator , have all you need for these pourpouses.I never try to connect with FS. Im not fly Heli but I think that will be usefull for you too , have air data , air spaces from all regions , vors , airports and aproximation mode .Good Luck

Regards
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
I can assure you that I fly with the GPS connected to Flight Sim via Bluetooth and its no different than using it in the airplane. I do this all the time and have been doing this for several years. I have no problem using different GPS software either. Why use it in simulate mode when you can use it real time in Flight Sim just like the airplane? Sorry NavGPS pro sucks. I use Pocket FMS or APIC only.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
with the extra file added to FS the program outputs the GPS position of the plane via a Bluetooth dongle. he is not actually using the bluetooth GPS unit at home only in the REAL plane. does this make it any clearer?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
Correct the bluetooth gps is only used in the car and plane. At home I have bluetooth dongle connecting pc and pda

New version of ALKOR (ALKOR RC)

Hello everybody.

ALKOR already available on a new version of Windows Mobile 6.1.

From what I could understand (as it is in Russian with a translator and Web) which is a version release.

I have not tested it yet.

Here I leave with you the link in case anyone wants to do more testing with this version.

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=70688

A greeting and good luck.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
OK I have the file, what a pain it was to get it. I have translated the page and really nothing is useful that explains what this does. It appears that this is a release candidate. I tried to follow what Kozhura was discussing with him but it didn't make any sense. I'm loading it up and will post on my share shortly.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] albertorrent:
I bought a 32Go in newegg and it works fne with my 4700 (khozura I forgot which rom)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
Ok I have the new Alkor 6.1 release candidate file loaded on my 4700 and all I can say is WOW. Here's what I can confirm so far.

1. New startup screen is simply awesome. Looks to be the original HP 6.1 startup and its nice.

2. Activesync over bluetooth works like a champ with windows Vista. Took about 5 seconds to set this up.

3. AD2P bluetooth works perfectly on my Plantronics 855 headset

4. Wireless works fine, however did not test WPA-PSK TKIP or WPA2

5. Bluetooth seems much more stable and consitant

6. All my GPS work perfectly in this one.

The install went fine, seemed a bit sluggish at first and then once I started moving around it was pretty fast. I'd say on par with original Kozhura 6.0 build. When you reboot it comes back up pretty fast. memory free for me appears to be constant with 93-95 megs of ram. (I have 128 megs) I could swear I used to see a small memory leak but that appears to be gone. Over all I think this is a very good build. So far everything work fine. The build number is 20755.1.4.0. I have posted this up for download on my site

First thank you for post the experience , all points works fine with my old Algasys 1710 6.1 rom ( only I dont test Bt AS under Vista) why you think that this new rom its better ? speed ? free ram? something new filesys.exe ? For me , ONLY FOR ME , these are not relevant points that make any difference .I dont know if you have troubles with your old rom , sorry nothing personal .

Other , CorePlayer dont work anymore with youtube video , from a few days ago , I install youtube player and works like a charm .....I know that isnt a rom trouble because I have working CP but I dont know why dont works any more , I only read some litle texts in some forum that YT have made change in security cookies???

Thank you again and if you have new test results please post

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dpdurst:
This Rom appears to be more stable than previous roms, the fact that BT activesync now works and many other things that never did in previous roms is a huge improvement. I have no clue on coreplayer, youtube or those issues as I do not use any of that. My primary function for this PDA is for GPS use in aircraft and in car. Free ram is never issue with me, I have 128 meg ram on my 4700 so I never run out. I would think that most user's would want the latest rom with the most stability if they use it alot, this rom appears to have that.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MagooChris:
So, um... I know I said that I didn't feel like paying the money to upgrade the RAM in my beloved hx4700... well I think I'm still having memory issues and well I'd like to know anymore information :) especially if someone can also help with the fact that I'm in Australia and I don't know that anywhere locally would do it and so I'm guessing that I'll need to ship it overseas, costing me more money (if and when I can do it)

I dont know if Im a lucky man , but I Installed only one rom ,six monts ago , and never have any rom troubles , yes I made a lots of hard resets a reinstall soft again and again , until I find the best point , more than the 95% of troubles was bad soft , and troubles caused by the "magic soft " that make miracles , SK Tools , Pocket Mechanik etc etc , all these magic soft made my big troubles not my rom . At the moment I found the best point , all working fine and fast , GPS soft , NavsGpsPro (for air ) I try Pocket FMS (the free trial) but these guys have a lot of trobles with air data and maps servers ( one map for every zoom level and each map 2 hours for download ....and 150Eu for this its too much for bad support , Garmin XT (4.050) (for ground) not the last , with 149 mg of maps , BT working fine with Active Sync , gps , Audio under 2AD2P with Nokia bt earphones , adhoc net , obex file transfer with most nokia phones and Motorola....., TCPMP for streaming video, perfect , for movies , excellent , Diamond PDF reader , Resco file explorer , Opèra 9,5 without flash, installed in SD Card , java opera mini , Wifi all day ,in office and in my house , here a litle trouble ,first time after a soft reset you must wait 15 sec , connects twice ,youtubeplayer , and ProfiMail , I dont like tmail because delete my old mail when a new mail its loading ...HI CALC ,Pocket Power manager,Battery status SPB backup ,Rhino code today panel same as original HP , I use same as you in air and driving I dont need more Im happy I love my 4700

What happends with CorePlayer its a tabu or prohibited word ?? nothing post if works or not with YT now , I write about this a few times and nothing , not for you , you explain me that you dont use but Im the only guy in the world that have troubles with it , please only yes or not , bahh I just deleted from my machine .......

As I said be carefull , not ever its a bad rom or dont work at that point for a rom trouble , for me the most times was soft not rom issues .
