Plz, help me, a cant upgrade it to WM6.5 v4!!! I have HP iPaq hx2490b using WM6.5 v3 by Spiaatie and when i upgraded to v3, it was easy and i had no problems... Im trying to upgrade it to v4, but when i put it in Pre-BL mode, connect to PC and run hpRUU_v4.exe, it says:

"ERROR 503: ActiveSync Error

Could not communicate to the iPaq with ActiveSync. Check your ActiveSync connection and try again.

You may need to push the reset button on the iPaq."

Ive tried to reinstall the ActiveSync and nothing!! Its icon is still gray (deactivated) when i connect my ppc while in pre-BL mode on PC... I use Win XP SP3 with ActiveSync 4.5!!!

Is this a hardware or software issue? HELP!!!

Hi,

I recently upgraded to WM6.5 SPv4 on my iPaq 2755 and it worked great. A couple of days later I was carrying mi iPaq in my pocket unprotected (I was stupid) and when I tried using it a few minutes later, all I could get was a clear white screen. I was pretty sure the screen must have broken so I purchased a new screen and installed it only to find that the new screen acted the same as the old screen. I know that the iPaq works because I can still access all of my files with activesync.

I've tried doing a Calendar+iTask+Power+Reset as well as Calendar + Messaging + Power + Reset but no change, the screen remains white. Does this sound like a hardware problem, a driver problem or some other problem. If anyone has any experience with this type of issue, I greatly appreciate hearing about it. Or if someone knows of a web site I should visit for additional help, I whould be most thankful.

Thanks,

Norm

nehickel, mine went white screen from doing boot loader mode, but i could get it out of it until i did a soft reset of it, and with a hard reset, how long are you holding the buttons? it takes it about 1min to a 1 and a half for mine to finally start formatting ps
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
Hi Norm!

Check if this component (marked with red circle) is intact.

If this one is broken off - iPAQ will show only white screen, but will operate as it should.

It's under a black tape.

​
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nehickel:
I've tried the long reset but that still does'nt help, except to wipe the iipaq file storage area clean.

I've also looked at the circuit borad image that Spiaatie attached to his message and it appears we have different revision boards. Mine does not have the chip layout as shown above.

Thanks for the ideas that have been provided. If anything else comes to mind, feel free to tell me and I'll gladly try it out.

Thanks,

Norm
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
I don't think that there is any other board layout, as the boards I have has the same layout.

So here are examples of hx2110, hx2490b and hx2750 boards and that part is on the same place on every board.

hx2110 and hx2750 boards does have that part soldered off, as it was needed on some other boards.

Spiaatie, any idea when the next release will be? I have a few suggestions for you, so let us know.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
I have succesfully ported build 21725, so I think this will be the next release, but not sure when - hope to finish within a week, still got problems with CHome as it does not shows up and I'm not sure why! :D

If You have any suggestions for next release - just PM them to me :cool:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nate1936:
A small poll-

Ok, just want to make this public poll so we can see whats-what- to help our amazing developer optimize for our devices :D

So, for the next release, if we could post what we are going to mainly use/not use that would be helpful.

1. How many people will use the included windows internet explorer?

Imo, its not that great, and with so many alternatives such as opera, skyfire, or netfront, I think it would be best to dis-clude it.

2. Windows messenger

Though it is nice, it is still in beta stages and there are alternatives that work nicely

3. Windows Media Player 10

Now I know this is used, but like the other 2, there are so many better alternatives like CorePlayer-At least until 6.5 gets out of the beta stage,

Thanks for reading, and please post what you will use/not use.

Personally, I wouldn't use any of these three, but somebody might, so feel free to speak your mind!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Sakaki666:
Thanks sooo much!

hi.. I've only recently acquired an hx2750 ..It is my first ppc and i'm quite happy with it but now that I've upgraded I'm just flipping out! What a difference and it was really very easy to do (I went from 2003 to W6.5 thanks to you!)

Thanks so much! I'll be checking for the update!

--p.s I can't find the restore option i used to have.. Is it gone? Can't i re-load some of the old files before upgrade?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ninguno:
well in my opinion,

The last version of ie es not better than iris last version but is a great improvement it support flash lite and renders the pages much better.

The wmplawer is still good for some tasks a plugin for rmvb only works with it( is slow but works).

About the messenger i prefer fring .

There is aplications that can be installed later that btphone manager,windows live,srs wow, etc i think is better a rom witout all that can be installed later.

Regards.

Hello, I have installed this rom, and installed the Maction Monste Chinese software to support the Chinese ,but it can not display the Fonts of Chinese, Can you help me. thank you
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
You need to find a chinese font somewhere, but I don't know where to get one. Or just install a chinese WM6.5 that would be easier!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NeverGone\RU:
try to report this to resource's abuse team, maybe they delete it.

Now, some bugs (all of them appeared randomly & only Hard Reset helped to solve them):

1. When turning on Wifi, the blue led begin flashing, iPAQ Wireless displays that wifi is on, HP wifi manager starts & displays network(s) info., but the Connection icon in the top bar doesn't change, no "wireless network found" notifications displays & "Wireless Networks" window can't be accessed at all - only network adapter settings are shown.

2. Windows Media Player sometimes don't starts at all - neither from the today screen, nor from Start Menu/launching .exe directly/trying to open a file from File Explorer.

That's a bug too, but not randomly appeared (it appears always) & not solved even by performing Hard Reset. Maybe it has already been described:

I can't connect to the Internet over mobile phone (tried Siemens S65, SL75, SX1 & Samsung X820). I always get an error message like this:

Connecting to <device name>...

Connection Established.

Cannot find route to destination.

In some cases, device hangs up after "Connection Established".

When will be an update released?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
Thanks for the bug report :)

Had some difficulties with one 21725 build, now I found a new one 21725 bit different - I will work with this one now. I'm busy this week, but hope to finish new build by the end of the week. :rolleyes:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bodgeman:
good evening!

I do believe that you may have got the wrong end of the stick - Spiaatie did request a shooting afterall, and the guy was responding in a supportive manner. If it is his "gansta" persona you are objecting to then, although you do have a point, perhaps a little over the top in your response. Maybe less talk of shooting and such would make the world a better place:D

Hello Spiaatie,

Thanks for the great job you have done making this roms.

I have a little problem using my ipaq (hx2410) and a friend's one (hx2490).

I give you the sequence for flashing:

1.00.00L

1.00.00H

1.00.02H

6.5v1

6.5v2

6.5v3

6.5v4

All works great but the transfer between the PC (winXP) and the iPAQ have some problems, it's realy slow.. and sometimes in the middle of the upload it start again.. (3hs aprox for a 100MB file upload)..

The iPAQs where working ok before doing this procces.. i tried downgrading the rom using the 1.00.00L from this post and the result was the same..

Maybe i did something wrong but now i dont find the way to make it work.

If you can give me and advice or site to find the way to solve this i will apreciate it.

PD: Srry for mi bad english.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jaffa886:
unable to flash hx2410 to WM6.5.SPv4

no problems accessing bootloader.

no problems during transfer/flashing.

device screen goes black at end of transfer then restarts.

removed from cradle...hard reset

hx2410 now says Formatting PS.

progress bar gets to far right ...nothing else

(waited 20mins ..just in case :confused: )

so no luck with 6.5 for me

Eventually gave up and reverted to wm5 ( this flashed with no problems )

Did You install 1.00.00L -> 1.00.00H -> 1.00.02H before WM6.5 on hx2410?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jaffa886:
Sorry Spiaatie

I attempted from 1.00.00L to wm6.5spv4 ....

I don't have rom paqs 1.00.00H or 1.00.02H

do i need to do these first ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
For hx2110(5) and hx2410(5) 1.00.00L -> 1.00.00H -> 1.00.02H is a must and then You can install any WM6.1 / WM6.5 ROM

How do you dump the ROM from a device? I've trawled google for instructions, but I can't find anything :confused:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:

What are You trying to do?

SATMAP Active 10 does not run on Windows Mobile.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] yhbt_yhl:
Oh doesn't it? :confused: I thought it was a really trimmed down CE OS... Perhaps my understanding of mobile OS's is fundamentally flawed :eek:

I basically want to dump the ROM of the Active 10, and mess around with it because I clearly have nothing better to do with my time :D
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
Yes it runs Win CE, but it's not the same as Windows Mobile.

As for ROM dumping try pdocread LINK
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] yhbt_yhl:

Major Issues with Upgrade

Folks,

I performed the upgrade to 6.5 easily. That was the good part. The bad part is my device will no longer sync with anything period. The fault code comes up as 0x8007000E, which basically says there is not enough memory to perform a sync. The upgrade somehow has block the ability to remove software, meaning I have no way of easily just deleting enough software to make room so I can try to get sync running again...

Any ideas would be a quite welcome thing. I LOVE my hx2795b, but right now it is in paperweight mode...:eek::mad:
