Managed to install the Vivi ROM. Appears fast and was able to soft reset quite a few times.

Started to install some software and did various reboots no problem. It then stopped working, soft reset and then stuck on boot screen.

Did a hard reset, but only once and booted back up.

Next soft reset and stuck on boot screen. Hard reset made no difference this time. Still stuck on boot screen

i just tried it, some screens say 6.5 others 6.1 and it was dog slow for me so went back to 6.1
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bulesz:
I have tried many ROMs, and the PhamQuang's Build 20764.1.4.3 PV rom is very cool!

Quite fast, and stable, I am using many programs (Spb Shell, Agenda Fusion, Sbp Backup, MSN Live, Skype, etc...without any issue..

Thanks for the release again!

Cheers,

Yes-It Does Work

Started from the beginning, loaded 2003SE and went to Vivis 6.1 from there. I did do several hard and soft resets to confirm the ROM was okay to start out with. Perfect. I did have to do 3 hard resets to get data to clear, the 2nd reset sat idle for about 20 minutes so I went ahead and did an additional hard reset(not soft). I am not concerned about the number of reset it took, I am never sure how long to wait to do the 2nd reset anyway. Some SPB programs were a little sticky to install(didnt know when to finish) I just would go to start/today and the program would finish the install. I do not know what causes this, but soft reset was performed after each one and there is no sticking.

Conclusion: Everything is working Great! I have loaded all programs that I use and all are working smoothly.

How does it compare to other ROMS I have tried? I will have to see, but for me , getting the programs that I like to use installed has always been my biggest obstacle. Other then WM6.1_R5 kozhura Edition mod Ramsses v1g_K5R1g this is the only one that they install on, AND isnt a nightmare to sync with my PC.

Vivi-your a genius-but I am sure you have heard that before!

Thank-you

Only one thing if you want and if you have time , can you install previous Sanjays 8 mPP then flash Vivi s 6.1 ?? I have Vivis in use without any trouble for more than 4 days with a lot of programs and severals soft resets .I cant understand why , I mean that some old data stay in ram from the old rom ,its for this that I suppoused that make de diff from one device to other .In my case I have previous 8mg PP .

If anybody update from 8mPP to Vivi s and works please post here

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mikebem:
exactly, it's also very fast and impressive, but as i said before, wpa and wpa-psk don't work; any way to solve that?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spetrie:
Hey, I will try anything. I have since tried to load Vivi's again, and done the 2 hard resets. (Got it working a while with this) Boots up the first time but any soft reset and back to boot screen. Further hard reset just stays with clearing data.

Will try sanjays 8mpp then flash vivi again. Is HP iPAQ PPC WM6.1 SL61v3 rom - by Sanjay the ROM you refer to?

Is it possible my flash is beginning to fail?

Would a full 130MB image of vivi's ROM help? (Provided he can provide one that is) vivi implied 2 hard resets were required. This being due to teh cutdown ROM size requiring to format the ROM during data clear I guess.

I am really thinking if I am the only one having this major issue, it may be something on my 4700. Perhaps having too many flashes. Seems strange that all appears ok with official HP WM5 V2.01 ROM

8 pp

I have tried Sanjays 8 mpp and could not get a good sync partnership with Vista-didnt try XP. I have successfully loaded and am using Vivis 6.1, but I changed the pagepool from 4 to 8. It is something I always do. I can run all programs on Vivis 6.1 but could not properly install my programs with 6.5. Go figure. So far so good. Wep works fine. Havent messed with BT yet.

What does seem odd, I am unable to return to the original ROM "WM6.1_R5 kozhura Edition mod Ramsses v1g_K5R1g" that I was using prior to testing the new ROM's. Beginning to get frustrated with this and just want my 4700 back. I originally tried PH V27 ROM and that was the first time I was unable to flash a new ROM. Could not get past boot screen. HP original WM5 no problem. Vivi, can always get it to boot the first time, but soft reset an issue and after that hard reset an issue. Very strange.

Not sure what the issue is. Would very much like to use Vivi ROM as when I did have it briefly working with soft resets, it seemed very fast.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lhasistos:
hi , yes its the Sanjay V3 SL61v3 , I made more than 100 flashes to my 4700 I dont think that you have any trouble in your machine .Now I am the only one that have this rom working , I dont belive that .....I try to discover why ..

Vivi s 6.1 its about 50.432 kb nb0 file DONT USE THE INCLUDED BOOTLOADER

I USE BOOTLOADER FROM CHRIS... v 3,2,4,9 AND XP .please if you flash with Sanjay first can you attach me the windows mobile black .tsk screen .

other when you have your Vivis rom working dont touch themes , 1 you must install a new .tsk theme , 2 change your regional setting from thai to english Version installed its CE OS 20.764 Build 20764 .1 .1 .1

In reguards to not being able to flash WM6.1_R5 kozhura Edition mod Ramsses v1g_K5R1g, I had to reflash WM 5.0 original and update in order to get it to work yesterday. I had given up on Vivis and then I read his post this morning and thought I would try it ONE MORE TIME. So, it worked. I really think there is something to the partitions that different roms use.As frustrated as I get with this, I can't even imagine what a developer goes through (especially when they read my posts, I bet there is much eye rolling)

I can't even flash my original WM6.1_R5_koz ed over the HP WM5 original V2.01. Have flashed sanjay over HP original and will try vivi again with flash over sanjay V3 ROM. Must be something not getting reset correctly.

I agree, would not like to be a developer if this is only a taster of what they go through. Hats off to them and all you cook the ROM's. Could never do it myself.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nemosince1996:
I have tried FlexMail several weeks ago in different ROM. Since that time I flashed iPAQ with various ROMs (eg. SL61V3, Alkor_B2_Ramsses_Kozhura_v1g, etc.) several times. I did not have such a problem with mails at all. This is for the first time I see this. Btw I could not open mails in Alkor_B2_Ramsses_Kozhura_v1g. This is the only one exception.

It seems to me that it is something wrong in bootloader memory area of my PDA because I can't connect to it via mtty11a using \\.\WCEUSBSH001. This is never offered in Vista in my case from certain time. When trying to connect using serial connection I alternatively have to use mtty 2.11 in which I choose USB in COM port selection under some conditions.

My flashing sequence is:

1) Start bootloader mode and put iPAQ to cradle

2) Open WMDC in Vista and cancel USB connection, do not kill it in task manager, leave it running

3) Load mtty 2.11 using USB option as COM port

4) Write "lnb xxx.nb0" in terminal window and start flashing

This is 100% successfull and the only one flashing method I can use.

Really I do not know what has happened to my PDA because from some time I can't use standard approach with \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and even flashing directly from card what was normal for me in the past. I am not able to find what's wrong with it.

lhasistos, Many thanks for your help. It would appear some ROMs just don't like being installed over other ROMs.

I now have Vivi "PDAMobiz_WM_6.1_20764_4PP.NB0" ROM build 20764.1.1.1 installed and appears to be able to soft reset. I have all my software installed and running. Only for half a day so far, but it is a start.

What I did to get here:

HP original WM5 V2.01 installed.

Then installed Sanjay WM6.1V3 and it operated OK. No software installed

Then installed Vivi ROM and seems OK so far. Fully loaded with software.

When I installed Vivi direct over Original HP WM5 V2.01 ROM I had issues with soft reset and stuck on boot screen. I was also unable to install my original ROM I had been running.

So something must exist in the various ROM's that write specific parts of flash that allow some to work and other to fail.

So successfully loaded Vivi ROM over Sanjay ROM. Lets hope I get no issues.

Hope this helps others and possibly the guru's who produce the ROM's. Well done to all. You have produced these great ROM's for our 4700 keeping our device alive and up to date.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spetrie:
lhasistos, Many Thanks for your help and all others that provided help.

I now have a fully loaded version of WM 6.1 CE OS 5.2.20764 Official Style Vivi version running.

What I did:

Install Original HP WM5 V2.01

Install Sanjay SL61V3 ROM

Install WM 6.1 CE OS 5.2.20764 Official Style Vivi version

I have installed all my original software and it has been running for half a day. Have performed a number of soft resets and it boots back up. I should not tempt fate.

It would appear that some ROMs just don't like being installed over other ROMs. Hopefully the great ROM guru's that have produced these great ROM's for our 4700 may discover the solution.

Many thanks to all the ROM creators for keeping our 4700 alive with the latest OS.

Hello again.

I flashed my hx4700 to 6.1 Vivi Clean, but I still can't work with IR.

While I'am trying to send something to my phone I always see this :

I tried to turn on/off "Receive all incomming beams" in Connections but it's didn't helped me..

Guys HELP!!!!!!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lhasistos:
IR works perfectly with this rom , try this: open resco explorer , then press and hold the pen over the file that you want transfer , you will see send to . then select infrared recipient , its all if you have another device with IR enabeled all works . Other with a phone with IR send a file to the 4700 wait 10 sec and you will see a bubble that says "you have an incoming file .....

if you want select accept ......

This was my first test in this rom ,I needed IR and its 100 % ok

I have tried to send contacts and calendars via beam just as you have, it does not work for me. IR is working as I can receive.

Beam works with resco explorer as lhasistos indicates and I also have IR remote control working.

I think sending calander or contacts does not work with beam but fine with BT. All other beam functions work.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lhasistos:
Beam its for me ,IR .What do you want to do ? IR or BT sync? for sync via BT go to BT manager , NEW , ACTIVESYNC via BT , once connected with your PC you can exchange files , contacts , favorites etc ........but all this its via BT not IR .

IR its for interchange files not for sync

In phones BT works same as IR , or for connect to Internet via phone (phone manager) , but you dont sync with your phone

Get the cab file here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/59249613/LazyMind_WM6_WiFi_fix_by_Vagus.cab.html

Here is the method:

1- Turn-off wifi, then soft-reset your PDA

2- Connect to your PC via activesync

3- Copy wzcsvc.dll from PC to \windows folder of PDA via ActiveSync's explorer

4- Maybe a reset needed again

5- OR try to install this cabinet file (thanks to LazyMind from 4pda) on your PDA

(I have copied the dll and installed the cab..just for sure...:D )

My ROMs experience

Hi all, first post here!

I put off upgrading my HX4700 rom for a long time, when I decided I would I started reading all the wm6 threads in the xda forums, whoa, 255 pages dedicated to the Kozhura roms and another 160 odd pages in this forum, maybe I'm a slow reader. I'm posting here because the Kozhura roms forum appears to be finishing with few new posts.

Part way through reading I just had to get on with flashing my iPaq, I tried following all the instructions, but it just kept rebooting to 2003se many times, I couldn't work out where I was going wrong, but didn't dare ask like other noobs to be told "just follow the instructions" & "read the forums" well eventually I used Bootloader_gui.exe and after getting to 31% and the prerequisite resets, at which time I was scared I would brick my unit as others had said they had. I now have Kozhura/Ramesses k1rg version running almost faultlessly.

I found much of the interface was very similar to 2003se, I thought there would be more differences, though I lost some of my favorite things like battery% and other settings on the Today screen, SPB has helped put these back. All programs worked as far as I have found, even wpa-psk connecting straight up. A2DP was easily connected and the main reason for upgrading, it looks like SDHC support may not happen for the 4700 but at least now it will get me through to the purchase of a 210.

Only issue I have had is my extended battery draining to 0% and not charging by any means, the original HP battery appears to be lasting as long as the extended battery did on 2003se, I remember somewhere through the forums discussions on extended battery problems to do with inferior chips, if anyone has a fix I would appreciate your help without having to search over 400 forum pages (search feature isn't brilliant if I can't remember the correct keywords). Does anyone know if the 4700 and 210 use the same battery?

Thanks to all those that have put work into this, namely;

Kozhura, who has obviously moved onto other things, goodluck Kozhura.

Chrismulz for bootloader programs, still not sure where I was going wrong, but got there eventually.

DPDurst for putting all downloadable resources into one handy place and helping enumeral noobs with there problems through these forums, love the rest of your site also, you are using you pda for the reason I bought mine but haven't reached so far.

Everyone else who has posted and shared in these forums.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lhasistos:
If you will change your machine for this reason ......I have boths

Its not the same but works perfectly , I test working , 4700 bat its 1800mah and 210 its 2200 mah .You can use one for another

HP s batt have inside an DS2761 chip , this chip takes control over charge , discharge and a very complicated program in EEPROM inside , NO ORIGINAL batts have the same chip but dont have the same soft , for this reason you may have troubles when batt reaches under 5% , probably dont work anymore buy ONLY original batts . I have a collection of dead no originals batts .my 3 originals batts 2 extended and one standad have no troubles at all they are 3 years old .The soft inside DS2761 blocks charge when batt goes to under 5% or when you have made more than xx cicles charge discharge (no originals) .Also chip have a UNIQUE serial number. I try all possible solutions for solve a died batt but without luck.Its a soft trouble not a dead cell...........[/B]

Good machine , but you will have a very very low sound , (factory limited) ,at this moment nothing to do ...FIRST try to see the screen at sun ............then tell us ......4700 have a true transflective screen , when you have sun in the screen backlight goes off and you can see perfect , 210 at sun , backlight goes full and you cant see as the 4700 ...and you dont have IRDA anymore.. I have both ... If my 4700 was 128 mg (I only have 64 ) ram probably 210 goes to trash

Bootloader have no troubles at all , do you use it with VISTA ???Sorry but I dont understand you flash or not yours 4700 ??
