oh yeah once the bootloader active put the battery in and also what was the charge on the battery it could be the battery to low to to allow bootloader try charging with one of those univesal charger things
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cimony:
NO image exists !!

Thank you Defcomg

When I hold down the "Volume down" key, and while holding it , I hold down the "Left" key (on 4-ways) and while holding both keys with battery plugged in , then I connect the USB cable : I have always the same message "No image exists" and the bootloader cant starts

And when I try without battery : The device flash in the background

Is this the correct Keys mentioned on the image below ?

Thank you
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] djsynchron:
Yes, those are the keys that you have to hold down. I had the same problem as you...and the method that mentioned before worked for me and for many other people with the same problem.

and btw, you don't have to remove the battery...

Read my posts from this thread and download guide posted before,. i'm sure you will find the solution

P.S.:if you want to update to silix's wm6.1 for ipaq 500 you have to FLASH YOUR DEVICE WITH ORIGINAL RUSSIAN ROM FIRST FROM HP WEBSITE
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] robbani:
i hv tried the "hold volume button+left joypad button & insert usb"

it's remain the same....

keep displaying "No image exists"

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] djsynchron:
robbani, try on other usb port and run hp ipaq update utility before connecting the usb cable
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cimony:
Always the same probleme

Because if WE want to update to silix's wm6.1 for ipaq 500 WE have NOT FLASH our DEVICE WITH ORIGINAL RUSSIAN ROM FIRST we are skip the steps

then the bootloader has corrupted I think the only solution is a JTAG but How ? :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

FOR ALL OF YOU THAT TRIED TO UPDATE TO SILIX'S WM6.1 FOR IPAQ 500 AND GOT "NO IMAGE EXISTS !!"

I just tried (to see what happens) to update to Silix's WM6.1 for iPAQ 500 without flashing to original russian rom and I've got "No image exist" too. So I fallowed my own guide and everything is ok

Device is not dead...but it does not no have a valid bootloader anymore (it's corrupted beacause update stopped when bootloader was written). That's why you have to run sp*****.exe before connectig the usb cable as I said in guide (A valid bootloader will be loaded from HP iPAQ Update Utility when you connect your phone to computer). Follow all steps from guide and pay attention to all details.

Download my guide (page 6 of this thread "8-Steps Guide HOW TO FIX iPAQ 5xx.zip" ) ... Will work 100%
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cimony:
No image exists !! a boring message

Thank you Djsynchron

I followed all the steps in the guide with attention to every detail

Unfortunately, the bootloader does not want start and the PC no longer recognizes the device :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Thank you
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] djsynchron:
use other usb port and try again...it seems to be a problem when you try to connect to the same usb port.

NOTE: after your phone is plugged in and DBS Loader appears on phone's display your computer may ask you for some driver (HP USB Sync) or something like that. Also drivers are provided with ActiveSync 4.5. Install that driver and then proceed to next step

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cimony:
I found a solution

yes I found a solution, unfortunately I screwed up a circuit that does not matter it was just for the color so be careful not to damage your mobile phone;

That is the solution:

You must disassemble your mobile phone, specifically the keyboard with two screws as shown in step 15 on the video below,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGdYl9jr-_s

Let it disassembled a half hour

"No Image exists !!"

I got this error while installing Silix 6.1 rom(I didnt install the russian rom first...)

What can I do about it?

Is there any way to restore the bootloader(which is apparently missing), or do I have to send my Ipaq to an hp service.

Did you fix your device? This does not work for me ;/
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] cimony:
My solution

As for me I tried all the solutions described in this forum, unfortunately it was always without result; up where I disassembled my mobile phone exactly when I posted the keyboard

In my opinion the tempo keyboard memory was blocked and when you pressed the volume button and the left button of joypad the system does not recognize, in truth your keyboard is blocked

the system recognizes that the power ON button and not power OFF.

So the only solution that has revived my mobile phone is the one I described earlier in the forum: Made by Mohammad

Français :

Quant à moi j'ai essayé toutes les solutions décrites dans ce forum malheureusement c'étaient toujours sans résultat positif ; jusqu'à où j'ai désassemblé mon GSM précisément lorsque j'ai détaché le clavier à mon avis la mémoire tempo du clavier c'était bloqué et lorsque vous appuyé sur la touche du volume et la touche gauche du joypad le système ne les reconnait pas ; en vérité votre clavier est bloqué

le système reconnait que la touche power ON et non power OFF .

Alors la seule solution qui a revit mon GSM c'est celle que j'ai décrit précédemment dans le forum : Made by Mohammad

ROMUpdate.dll for Ipaq Data Messenger

Is there a version of the ROMUpdate.dll available for the HP Data Messenger (Win Mobile 6.1)?

I want to flash the firmware but am being told I have an "invalid SKU"

Many thanks

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] m3gab0y:
I've tried all except disassemble the unit (i will do it later, i don't have the apropriate tools @ work yet). And guess the results - nothing works for now. I just can't get out of the "No Image exists!!" screen. When i press vol. down + left the result is the same. But when i press both the vol. keys (when the phone was alive i entered the bootloader this way) the phone is completely blank screen. I have all the drivers in activesync and the new filmware updater. But the phone doesn't show up at all, it just drains power from usb, nothing more, no comunication at all. Even in the blank screen when i press both volume keys at the same time at startup. Even in this state i ran the updater and it didn't detected the phone.

Just for the record: anyone tried with the sd-card hacks? (insert raw formatted sd card with the filmware in it and boot from it)

Edit: I left the phone for 5 hours without battery and upon plogging the usb-cable i receive the same message. So there's nothing left except to disassemble it.

Edit 2: I did it. The phone is ALIVE! I didn't have to disassemble it! Follow the instructions below.

OK Here are the instructions to make it alive:

1. Remove the cable AND the battery!

2. Insert the battery, be carefull not to press any of the keys.

3. Press Volume down AND Joypad Left key AT THE SAME TIME. Keep the keys pressed.

4. Insert the USB Cable. It SHOULD give you the bootloader! If the message is "No image exists!!", try it again and again untill you get it right! If you do it right you WILL see the bootloader! Some folks complain that the keyboard doesn't always react on this key combination, so try it again and again untill you get it right. It's the hardest part, but you don't have much of a choise.

5. Download the appropriate rom and language for it (as for now rom 2.05.0 from hp.com in english for me)

6. Download this file from the first post and copy the ROMUpdate.dll to the folder where the setup files from the HP Update are located (usually theese files are in C:\iIpaq\SP******\).

7. Run the installer (open the sp***.exe where *** is the serial number of sorts) The installer should detect the phone and will not complain about sku id if you applied the patch correctly.

8. Press update and wait.

9. (re)Boot the phone again.

And there you go - you have windows 6.0 again.

But hey, look at the good side. It's better than dead device ;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E-XDA-1:
Hi all, I have an odd state of affair to deal with.

I want my Auto-sync off so there is no auto update of various apps without me knowing it.

So I turn it off manually under "Accounts & Sync" under General Settings.

But it keeps on turning itself back on without my doing anything. So it seems that some app is doing that. Is that the case?

If I look under "Accounts & Sync" , I see various Accounts listed. Are those the potential culprits as in they do require / request syncing? Unfortunately, I can't remove all of them, I see some message stating I need to reset the phone to remove some. What's with that?

Notably, I see "Alarm Clock" which I did not install and which may be part of the built-in Clock maybe. But I can't stop or disable the latter. Probably a built-in LG or Android app. How do I deal with that one?

Also, there are Google accounts showing. Could those be causing the autosync to turn on?

Oddly, this only started to happen in the last few weeks probably. Maybe a recent update?

So, any thoughts on how to ensure Auto sync is off?

TIA

added: This may not be the best forum to post this, I now see this post did no go in the Stylo forum as expected and I can't see how to move it. Sorry.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] mrstupidus:
Hey there,

it seems like it's a very bad day for me. After some problems with my psyche, which is nothing new, i decided to flash a new ROM. This is what always makes me happy, try out new features and just messing arround with the system. Turns out, today i messed to much but i think it shouldn't... Here's what i did and happend (coming from RR 7.0):

-downloaded Superior OS from https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/development/post-t3909765

-downloaded the GAPPS package (first time with AROMA)

-moved both files to the SD-Card

-backed up my data, wiped system, dalvik, cache, data, internal storage

-installed the Superior OS zip

-installed the GAPPS zip

This is where it all got messy. The zip didn't finished, it stopped after 2 seconds and the H930 rebooted directly to recovery. There was no screen with the LG standard boot screen, it went straight to recovery. I rewiped everything and i got an error message which said: can't wipe data partition because device or resource is busy. I tried to repair it via wipe > advanced > selecting data > change or repair filesystem and tried to resize, repair and change file system. it always returns the error that it can't mount the partition. After the script, TWRP returns script succeeded, but fails to mount /data.

If i try to install RR 7.0, the script returns E3004: This package is for device : v30,joan,h930; this device is .

After all, i can't restore the backup i had from AOSP extended. I tried to flash the following two files TWRP-JOAN_H930_OPEN_EU-21w.zip and H93020R(TWRP).zip which started with the error E: Legacy property environment did not initialize succesfully. Properties may not be detected.

TWRP Version: 3.2.3-7

I would appreciate any help on this topic, even if i'm one of the xda profits who don't really gives a thank to the threads an just tries out until my devices work as i want them to do (i'm just honest). It's not because i don't appreciate the work of the dev's, they do really nice work which deffinetly is too much for myself to do. I'm just a messy person when it comes to interpersonal relationships. I'm sorry for my kind of awkward english, that's how i am...

I don't have a lot of knowledge about programming itself but i know how to use adb and fastboot, since i had some issues with my HTC one M7 on which i wasn't able to restore the IMEI due to too much messing arround. I think i started a thread about it, but i got it replaced even with a custom rom installed for free which will be my driver for the next couple days.

Kind regards

I'm still new to this phone but, can you use LGUP to reinstall stock. Then just start over.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] mrstupidus:
Thanks for the reply,

i would if I could access download mode (forgot to mention it), seems like i'm not able to since the device only boots to recovery, the LG V30 bootscreen never shows up.

It seems like my device data is corrupted or lost, since different scripts in TWRP report that I have no device number. Also if I shut down the device trough TWRP, it boots to TWRP again and makes no attempt to shut down. I haven't tried to access download mode, I had to go to bed for work today. I still have to go tomorrow but one night without sleep will be worth it.

As far as I remember I have a backup of my EFS lying around, I will try to flash it this evening. I'll keep you guys updated if I find a way to get my v30 working, since it could help others too.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Have you tried going into download mode manually with the hardware buttons?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
You are going to have to have to flash boot and system via fastboot:

* Download the ROM you want to flash and extract it. It will have boot.img or boot.image ... boot.something (depends on the ROM), and system.SOMETHING.

* Open an elevated command prompt in the directory you extracted the ROM in.

* From TWRP choose reboot / bootloader. If it wants to be a PITA and reboot back to TWRP, then you will have to wait till the phone dies and then use the vol down + plug in the USB cable method

* In the command prompt type:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot boot boot.img

Obviously replace boot.img and system.img with the names of the boot and system files.

To solve your /data issue (and you might want to do this first actually):

While in TWRP

adb shell
umount /data
umount /sdcard
mkfs.ext2 /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata

Repeat those two umount, and that is umount NOT unmount, until you get an error. If it isn't unmounted, when you try to format it, mkfs.ext2 will throw an error.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] mrstupidus:
Thank's a lot for you're efforts, it turned out that i didn't needed to flash the system.img and boot.img :)

Thanks a lot too for you're effort's, this really helped me out in a unecpected way :)

So here's what the issue was: a corrupted Gapps package. It failed to install and was still active in the recovery while the recovery "rebooted" (it just flashed off and started again with no normal boot between, kind of awkward to explain). The Phone itself never really rebooted into recovery, i have no idea how that happened. The /data partition was still in use from the Gapps script, but the script wasn't visible anymore and i was able to use the recovery as normal. So i ended up with an error everytime i tried to install a zip, restore a backup or wiping the /data partition.

Something i forgot yesterday in the spiral my mind was, forcing the phone to shut down via holding the power and volume down button. I then booted to recovery and i was able to wipe the /data partition. I then tried to install RR and the script suceeded with no error, then the Gapps package with AROMA and i was at the same point as yesterday. So forcing the phone to shut down and back to installing RR now without Gapps. I'm now going to install a .KDZ to start from the original firmware, so i can update the whole firmware and then moving on to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP and a rom with the working Gapps package i have ;)

Thank's a lot for the help :)

Regards Simon

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] neocyke:
It'd be better if you provided the roms and versions you were using.

In between tho, try flashing the last US998 rom you used again but in refurbish mode instead of DL. I had an almost similar bootlooping issue last night and 2nd refurb flash got it to stop.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Why would you try to convert LS998 to H930? North America variant should only be cross flashed to other North America variants, when using LGUP. Through LGUP, you can't completely Frankenstein a North American phone to a non-North American phone and at the worst you will have a brick.

You need to read the Frankenstein instructions on how to convert LS998 to US998. You either didn't flash US998 Nougat first or you didn't do the Master Reset step in between Nougat and Oreo:

Those instructions work for all North American variants -- except T-mobile H932 -- but were written specifically with screenshots while me personally doing Sprint LS998. ;)

________

Refurbish has its uses. But to be honest I think you just didn't follow the Frankenstein directions. Master Reset stabilizes the bootlooping when flashing US998 Nougat before then flashing US998 Oreo. Has worked for everyone for over a year. ;)

Unless the phone you got which you said was already Chinese Frankensteined was messed up due to whatever they did to it. :rolleyes:
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] neocyke:
Honestly, i gots no idea how they did it and didn't really care at that point. Just needed to get the phone working again.

I actually did the master reset. Several times in fact. Never worked once. Longest it'd hold is for me to input wifi pw. It was the only other thing i could get to other than download mode.. I got the refurb step from either this or the WTF thread. Someone else had the same problem and refurb was their fix. Just so happens same for mine.. So, yeah..
