I have managed to upgrade to wm2005 using toenailed & xda2jojos' guide and software. I have tried many times but I have not been able to carry out the hard reset and change what is recommended. I am left with a phone that will send and receive texts but I can't get into the phone app and it doesn't let me view contacts apart from those on the sim. Does anyone have any ideas.
Regards
Craig
wait for 5 to 10 seconds
to completly hard reset in 2005 you must press the bottons up to 5 seconds or more
then the nenu appears
Thanks very much, all sorted. That was a schoolboy error on my behalf.

dont soft reset using a stilys. Use a program to allow flush the file bufferssss
yeah, thanks but.
i know that and honestly i still have to try it. BUT:
I just want to know WHY this happens, and WHY other users with the same ROM as mine is DONT have this problem.
And, if i incidentally do a Softreset or maybe take out the battery, i lose my account again! thats not a solution for me.
Anyways thanks for your hint . apreciate that.
can you confirm my thought about the battery? or maybe its REALLY losing the accounts just after a Stylus reset?
It hapened to me time ago.. Some programs, like outlook, dont flush their databases buffers each moment. So, if you create a new account, or delete some mails or sms (this actions modify the database files managed by outlook) and then you reset your pda using the stylus, many buffer may be not empty so you loose that information. When you reset your pda using a program (it uses a API funcion that allow the buffers to be flushed to their files) all the information is saved in disk and you wouldnt hava to loose anything.....
thnx
thats was a clear explanation, thank you.
Any ideas why this happens only on some devices, even if they have the same rom?
I ve repeated the test right now. I have sent a email to my account in gmail(this account is configured in my jasjar). I ve connected using UMTS an and i ve downloaded the mail. then a i ve soft reset using stylus. When the device has booted i have launched pocket outlook and the mail wasnt there. I ve downloaded the mail again and a i ve done soft reset using a program (handy meny). When the system has booted the mail was there. Conclusion: I supose Outlook use the api fuction "CeWriteRecordProps" to update or insert a new record in the outlook database and probably Windows Mobile 2005 uses a buffer policy to reduce the access to these databases. so, if windows hasnt written this records fisically to disk then you can lose some information if you reset using stylus. When you use a program to reset, windows informs to the device drivers that "sleep" is in progress and they have to save the unsaved information so the disk driver has a chance so save all.
I hope Microsoft change this policy soon.....
so you...
...think this happens on all HTC Universals?
I think it happens in all Windows Mobile 2005 devices....
ok, i´ll let you know in the next days...
...then i´ll receive some more universals. and also one of a freind of mine, who told me that he hasn´t got this problem. i don´t know if its true, but we will see...
I don't know.I ve repeteated this test with my jasjar and my himalaya(with magneto) with same results
i can confirm...
...your description to 100% !
with a "soft"-softreset everything is fine.
and i´ve found out why other devices semmed to do NOT have the problem. Those users setted up their account, and had serveral (100+) mails ond their pop-server. Poutlook took a few minutes tu download headers and part of the messages. in this time the "buffer" was "written back" to the mail-db.
So: I think that for now, all the WM5, or at least all UNIVERSALS got this problem. Some user just don´t realize it.
Now that we (well,i) now that it is not a problem of just my device, FOR NOW i think i can live with this solution. btw, i use Pocket Plus 3 as task manager and Softresetter.
thnx dherrero.
Thanx DHerrero
After your tip I used spb pocketplus 3.0 and the softreset works wonderfully!
Thanx for the workaround hope they'll fix it soon because pocketplus makes the system very slow.[/list]
strange....
With Pocketplus my system runs fast as always, no problems at all.
Pocketplus
Probably due too a combination of software then.
I'll work it out if you say its not due too SPB Pocketplus
Thanx
you re wellcome. There are many programs to soft-reset the device "softly" and thye dont brake the system.... For example Hany Menu and much more.. :lol:
SOLVED deleted "pim.vol"- now s620 stays on the "windows mobile" boot screen
hi
can i just flash kavana again or do a hard reset??
cheers
i didnt get much of a chance to dig deeper into this..but i think you would have first had to change the registry entry if you were trying to move the pim.vol or the other .vol that holds your texts etc...to say your sd card....again..i didnt get too deep into this so i could be totally wrong.
but i dont have an answer for ya except for a reset and reload..
So I have a Touch Pro 2 from T-Mobile and for some reason when I responded to a text message the phone sent the responce to the person texting me as well as to myself. Now the counter on the touchflo bar shows 1 message even afer ALL messages are deleted off the phone. I know I can Hard Reset my device to fix this which I have done twice now. I am trying to find a way to fix this without having to hard reset my phone for a 3rd time. I did a search on google and found one other person with this same problem and could not find a way to fix it. I could not find any posts here about this. If there isa post please point me in thta direction. If not if anyone can figure this out please help.
Nevermind I found a program to reset the smscounter in the blackstone fourm that fixed the problems
Its really not that big of an issue for a hard reset to be needed. When U get a text you do 1 of 2 things one you go to the messages tab and leave it there the touchflo count should reset if not click the message tab again and it should reset, eventually resets within seconds or 2 click on the message in touchflo and it will open up the log of messages received and reset the counter instantly when you go back THAT SIMPLE
yes it is a big deal I too have had to master reset my phone 3 times due to the counter saying i have a new msg when i dont...I shouldnt have to keep setting my phone to factory default and if people are asking questions it obviously because it is not a simple fix...lol stupid counter gets me mad!
Hi I have a HTC TP 2 and since yesterday it says that my password for the phone is not correct so i cant do anything with the phone.My password always is/was 1989 so there is no possibility that i fil in a wrong pasword. does any one hase experiences with this ?
Is there a solution without a Hard reset ?
this has happened to me also... I woke up and my phone was frozen, then I took out the battery to restart it... It didn't help at all. I think I may have to hard reset. I may have to lose my tasks and calendar schedules. AND photos...
No one knows any solution to this?
1. Posts with "Question" as the title are not helpful. Almost everyone in here is lookeing for help and descriptive titles help us help you.
2. After a hard reset you can get all your appointments, tasks, contacts back by simply resyncing to your computer. Assuming you're using Outlook, of course.
3. You should always keep photos and e-mails on your SD card. It is unaffected by a hard reset. There are several thread in here on how to change where your phone stores these items.
