It sounds like your device has got corrupted HARD reset will be only way back

if hard reset isn't working then it's not the rom? if it work that long before your prob's started

ROM seems very good and fast. I have one problem though - if I turn the phone off, it is very reluctant to switch the phone on again without a soft reset. Clicking the Phone button in Comm Manager turns the phone off but then won't turn it on again.

Any ideas?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
Yes, same with me in my WM 6.1 rom.

Here`s my workaround: Try to make a call, while radio turned out. Then switch radio or flight mode. Worked for me last time.

Morning everyone,

It has been sometime since I gave feedback on the rom so thought why not post today.

Everything seems to run ok ish on this ROM, just few things which perhaps could only be with my device.

1: When I unlock the device there is a slight delay, especially with displaying correct time and the top bar (where it shows the status and start button).

2: When someone calls me, my my ringtone (mp3) cracks as if it rings with delays and cuts in the middle of the tune.

3: The memory left after installing the ROM was not enough and when I installed TomTom, now I have only 6mb left. This doesn't allow me to change few things like Icon of the car on TomTom due to lack of memory or if I want to change the map direction it just takes forever (This could be due to TomTom).

4: When you lock the device, the end parts of the date are cut off, its like if they were never made to fit in the space.

Please note: These issues aren't that serious but since I noticed them, I thought I'd mention it.

Although the ROM is not that fast in operations however it is very stable and since I have installed it I have no big/serious issues (touchwood!) :D.

Regards

Nice, to see you here for the first time. Yes you're right BT was a real prob in those WM2k3 times. Without that additional little app called BT-Fix, I guess it was nearly impossible to use. I remember it well, there was no way to handle the port with build in BT-stack. So, congratulations, you choose my second favourite rom, good choice. Have fun.

Help needed for Alpine

Accidentally, my XDA II is crashed and I sent it to Service Center, after 2 weeks waiting for the repair, it is back, but I shock, the repair center changed the machine inside by XDA IIi which mentioned by them is identical. But it wasn't as I Can do nothing to upgrade it back to WM 6.5.

I search to Alpine Community and realize up to now, none can upgrade it...some people there even believe Alpine can not be upgraded!! and we as the owner of Alpine should accept the destiny that it always in WM 2003SE.

Swampy.. as a Master, can you give the light to the community if there is a hope to upgrade Alpine. I am not the expert but I really love your ROM.. and hoping can use it in this Alpine..

Thanks in advance Swampy... I wish you can help or at least give comment

They did WHAT?

They changed your Himalaya to an Alpine? Crazy!

As you figured out yourself the Alpine is not upgradable,cause of it's totally different hardware! Sorry, for that bad news.

Alpine's hardware is like the one of the Magician. This device was not able to be upgraded to any other OS as WM2k3 SE, till master cotulla came and released his 6.1. The only one, to build a new rom for the Alpine is this guy, I think.

I do have a xda IIi, and if you read the alpine forum there are some very good Explanations "Y" the main thing is the memory maping,

Secondy there is only one other device that use's this processor,

also there is a lack of tools for cooking for "xda IIi/alpine"

but on the plus side it's a fast and reliable device just no so popular,

The only chance would be for someone with access to the kernel compiling software and all the needed info, and your never gona get that info from HTC :(

I know someone on this forum said i could be done !!!!

Seeking help!

Hey Swampy395! Thanks for Nice ROM!:)

I upload your ROM in my O2 XDA II, & nw facing a Strange problem with my device about SD/MMC card.

I'm using 2GB card, when I put that in slot, it shows the content but later I found some problems, like:

1) After restarting device, sd card doesn't show (Need to takeout the card & replug),

2) Device automatically fall dead or may be only screen fall dead, because the LED above blinks,mean network is available & device is working.

Corrective actions taken (but no use):

1)Formated & plug the card (Fat, Fat32 both tried)

2) Follow some advice on forum,like make My documents folder, even install a driver (.cab) avail in one thread & so on.

3) Hard reset device twice.

Finally, simply took out the card & run the device but its unfortunate.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:

And yes I changeover from Sun_dream 21232 WWE to this ROM.

I had a cheep 512MB card that would do that sort of thing, It was a free card with software for my trade, the card was fine with the free software, then one day I moved the software to a larger card and formated the card then the trouble started, I also tryed to use in my "digi camera" used camera to format card then all was OK for camera, But still not in PDA,

I use transend 4GB, kinston 4GB, sandisk 4GB, and kingston micro sd 4GB with adapter, no troubles at all,

It could be your card is not so compatable with hima n WM6.5 !

did you try flashing a 2003 rom? It may be worth a try, :rolleyes: if it works ok with 2003 rom try format in device then flash 6.5 again and see what happens!

FYI, if you flash a 2003 rom you may get some error mesages re EXTrom partition, dont worry it just means you have used HimaDOCTool to get extra mem and now 2003 rom cannot find the EXTrom partition,;)

Hello, it has been quite sometime I have been testing your ROM. Overall it is great. One little thought though, when you change the theme on the phone it doesnt change the background from the Dialer pad.

I have tried number of times including soft reset after changing the themes however that did not help. I then manually overwrite two files ( stwater_240_320.jpg and stwater_320_240.jpg) with my own background image (but keeping the exact names) to make Dialer background changed.

Is it only me who is having the issue or did someone else has noticed the similar problem? Oh and I have tried doing a Hard Reset, yet it did not make any difference.

Morning Swampy395,

See if you can solve my mystrey here. I have been using the ROM for quite sometime with no big issues however ever since last weekend my Hima is kept on Restarting and getting hard reset automatically. It just happend again.

The background story is that I went to Birmingham few days ago and I was using TomTom on the device. That's where it all started, the Hima restarted while TomTom was on (this is kind of normal at some stages since sometimes when TomTom gets stuck the device gets soft-reset.).

Anyhow, ever since the Hima started to fail, regardless of TomTom or any other software I open or play, it simply restarts and hard reset itself. The normal running time is very slow as well. I have tried to Re-Install the ROM 3 times already however had no luck in fixing the issue.

Any ideas what I should be doing?

Regards

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] swampy395:
Hi mate

If your getting this fault/problem with the device after a hard reset and no other apps installed then it could be hardware,

try a 6.1 rom and if that's also unstable,

Try Flashing a 2003 ROM, if you'v formated your ExtROM partition then you will get some error's and the extrom will not load that's no prob's the device should be stable, if not then it's prob hardware,

hope this helps

Thanks muckelmaus and Swampy395 for the quick response.

I have loaded Windows 2003 1.7 version with 1.7 Radio and ExtROM and it was working fine. I then updated it to Windows 6.1 from Ather Dark Edition, it worked fine, however when I updated back to your 6.5 ROM, this time it ran dead slow. I kept it running for few minutes, updated my Emails through GPRS and it got stuck at the Email screen, I pressed the (End Call button) nothing happend. I then soft reset the device and it just did hard reset by itself.

Now I am back to Ather's 6.1 ROM and it running stable so far. I have no idea what could have triggered it to act like this however it does seems very strange and frustrating that so good device with stable ROM suddenly out of the blue started to act "smartly".

[EDIT] Even after using Ather's 6.1 it hard reset when I changed the Messaging to Single Threaded (it asked me to soft reset the device) and when I soft reset it came with Hard reset. I am sick and tired of trying different ROMs now, its just not working at all.
