My device has undergone millions of flashes till now. Now, it just enters the bootloader and does not react to any ROM and bootloader tool.
Looks like my device is screaming, "Enough is enough! How many times will you change my spirit !! "
Bad news is, in my last flash, I went back to Helmi WM5 AKU3.5.1.
So, no further development from me(for both OSes)

Sorry to hear your misfortune. But at least you got stuck at one of the good ROMs. Are you stuck at boot loader or you just can't flash?

Oh no!! After that command, it surely passed the repartioning process, but, now I cannot flash any OS.(may be because, it formatted whatever I had )
Help!

it happened to me many times, its something that has to do with the rom image you're trying to flash.
try the following:
1. use the new NOCID_RUU flasher when universal is CONNECTED and sync'd with active sync.
2. use the old maUpgradeUt_noid.exe . uncheck USB connections from active sync, put in bootloader, and try to flash
(these steps you probably already did, but check out next step)
3. flash with a radio image. copy the radio_.nbf you want to the flash folder, aswell as the nk.nbf, then repeat steps 1 & 2
this has always worked for me when i had your problem (and it happend quite a few times)
Thanks everyone! When nothing worked, I turned to my GF's universal and did a SD-rom flash. Luckily, she too was running helmi aku3.5.1
Helmi Aku3.5 is a good ROM.
My Universal retires with it too.
It died in the beginning of the month. Hardware failure!!!

Hi everybody,
I've a big pb with my Trinity when i taken ROM v3.00.07.17 PDAVIET.
Sometimes, when i try to click somewhere on the screen, only the start menu is appeared and disappeared immediately. And it repeated some more times. Even if it appeared its self. And i can't do anything else. I've to remove the battery and restart.
I' tried other OS, but the issue is not resolved.
Have someone know why my Trinity became crazy like that ?
Thanks for your prompt reply

It arrive me sometimes but only the start menu..not the totaly crach..
Try to reflash but follow:
1. Charge your ppc (more than 50%)
2. Flash Hard SPL
3. Eventually flash your radio rom
4. And then flash you Rom.

It's a famous HW issue of Trinity!!! If your device in new, bring it back for a change with an other one.
I had a problem with the password TWICE!! my P3600 does not recognize my password after i power off and on the device. i had to do a hard reset in order to use the device again, then i'd lost all my data. i am a Apple user so i did not back it up, actually i do not know how to sync my WM6 with my Apple.
now i do not use the password in fear that it may happen again. is this a bug with WM6? apparently a few people have experience this as well.
Hi,
it's a problem which happens if the device is reset before the change in the registry is written into the flashrom.
Turn the device off by holding the powerbutton down for about 10s, then you should be fine.

i did not power off/on, or reset, the device right after i created the password. the password was working fine when the device goes into the sleep mode. in fact, i am sure the password was fine as well when i power off/on a couple of times. it just seems to happen randomly without a pattern.
your suggestion seems logical enough, but i know for sure it was LONG enough for it to update the registry.
Good, someone else with this problem. I posted this in Shaps rom thread on Monday but got no reply.
I flashed a standard WM5 Orange M700 up to Schaps new rom.
First i sim unlocked it.
Then hard SPL
Then flashed the ROM
Got everything set up and must have rebooted a few times in different ways after setting the password and then 1 time it just wouldnt accept the password.
Hard reset, did everything again and same thing. I set the password the first thing when i first booted the device this time though and since that i must have reset about 5 or 6 times without problem when installing things like Random Access and stuff you obviously have to reboot. Then again after half an hour or so after another soft reset and it locks me out.
I flashed to a dif WM6 rom after this and i havent heard that there has been an issue yet.

okay. I just reread your first post... you said you were not able to back up data...
for me, I use PIM Backup by dotFred because it backs up the PIM on storage card, and can be restored on any WM version using the same program. (i.e. between wm5 and wm6) PIM data would be contacts, messages, call logs, calendard, etc.
if you'd really need to sync your pocket-pc to mac, you can see this
http://www.eltima.com/products/syncmate/
the one at sourceforge is still under development...

hey again,
i downloaded syncmate a few weeks ago, it works great. then today, it says my beta version expired and i should go to www.eltima.com to get the newer version. i tried but with no luck. i downloaded what appears to be the latest, yet whenever i start it up, i get the expired error again.
do you have any more info on this software? or anyone in this forum use this software to sync between Mac ans WM6?
i have the same "syncmate expired"-problem. I use HTC 3300 (WM6). It has worked for many weeks, but today i get this problem.

Ok, so I am a Newb, but I am a start guy... 153 IQ, was always top of my class - however I have no F**ng clue what the guys in the development and hacking section are talking about.
Basically, I have a TP2 for Tmobile that I would like to do something with... ANYTHING~! Preferable install a cooked WM6.5 rom, or a 6.1 rom with Manilla 2.5 for the time being. An android or Sense UI port would be nice as well.
Can someone please either help me get started by pointing my in the correct direction of a helpful sticky, because frankly its tough searching through threads like this:
"[JUL 13][APP][ALPHA4] Nitrogen 1.1 (music player for Windows Mobile)"
Any help would be appreciated by me, and other not so technically inclined individuals.
Thanks a ton!

I tried running the hardspl, but it completed in 10 sec and all it did was restrart my phone

i had the windows mobile device center running and it said my phone was connected. plug in the usb and put active sync on the device and the wmd will show your phone is connected. i was confused also since it said active sync failed.
as for the hardspl
*Go into BootLoader Mode (do a Soft Reset while holding the "volume down" key on the left side of the device. Keep holding the "volume down" key until you see tricolour screen which is the bootloader mode, then release it) and verify the screen shows 0.85.OliNex, which is the HardSPL version*

I did that and its already showing SPL - ).85.01 olinex
I didnt think the process worked as it said it takes 10 min, and it took about 6 seconds.
Is this all i needed to do and can i start the rom flash now?

it says 10 mins but it doesn't take that long. now you can flash away. i've flashed my phone like 3 times and ended with the touch it rom. i never tried tom codon rom. if you do try and landscape works let me know!
also you only need to hardspl once. so if you get tired of the rom just plug it in. run the customruu.exe and flash the new rom but ofcourse follow the instructions on the site lol

You can use E101 Rom and soon will be updated
Edit: Try from this link http://hidemyass.com/files/xv4GF/ it is a 28008 build.
To flash just copy on Sdcard and rename it as flash.bin, during reset keep volume up pressed it start sd card update.

Hi Hdubli, can I have download link please,
http://hidemyass.com/files/xv4GF/ there you can download build 28008 for E100.
The flash for me was alright. Some notes though: the setup of Windows isn't working 100%, it seems to freeze at some point and a dropdownbox wasn't clearly shown. Also, the screen isn't used 100%: pixels at the side aren't used. Also, there seems to be a margin for the letters, as some letters at the edge (still in the active area though) seem to fall off.
edit: seems like something went wrong. I get the top bar showing the icons, but the yellow/orange Windows logo doesn't disappear. Have to do a hard reset I guess.
edit2: did a hard reset and this time I disconnected the phone from computer. Everything worked fine now, except that the outside pixels (about 5 on each side) are still not used. But the dropdownboxes all showed alright and it booted alright and installed extrom alright . Sry for the confusion, very good job on the ROM! Will test some more .

To correctly have a good "start" after first rebbot, keep pda disconnetcted from everything.
After calibrate screen, extrom install all the cabs in the rom and after reboot it works good everything.
Keep in kind that the rom is tested (in italian) for 3 weeks withou any problems, let us know if need help.

Everything works fine for me too now. Thank you for the ROM, great job. Love the new build, it's much finger friendlier!

Hmm there is a problem with ActiveSync: the device doesn't always want to connect. The computer says it is not connected, but the device says it is. After some time or after trying to disconnect, the device just freezes. Annoying .
edit:.
Man hate this. It's really the device, tried 3 computers and they all refuse the connection. They say connecting and then disconnected, while the device thinks it's connected. Really odd, as it worked flawlessly before! Did a clean install and still not working!

Bro, this is bug issue, never flash your ROM before you ensure you get your original WWE ROM as default.....
Most importan part, no one is response when my first post, and "they" always told to "flash it, any problem is advise". <--- this part is very funny.
Not sure what you mean calvin, but anyway I reflashed with this custom ROM and it works again. No clue what changed, as a clean boot didn't help. But I'm happy again. And in case something happens, I still have the original ROM so not much risk for me.
edit: ooh no not again. After the first night, it was screwed again. Can't connect anymore :S. Hmm maybe I should go back to default then

Are You using Xp, Vista or else?
Can You check if ActiveSYnc is disconnected when screen goes black (timeout on backlight)? Don't let that Windows Mobile adjust backlight but set it!
In my case never found this kind of problem, but I see in various forum that 6.5 build in some case goes with this problem, for example I got that situation with Vista and with original rom 21840 build.
Apologies for the slightly off topic post, but I don't suppose you guys know of any updated ROMs for the beTouch E200 do you? Would like to get an updated version of WM6.5 on this thing...
The problem is that the computer (tried both Vista and Windows 7) doesn’t connect, while the device says it is connected. Then nothing happens, except that the device freezes after some time or says that any program I want to run isn’t a valid PPC application :S. After a reset everything is fine again, except that I can’t use activesync. This both happens with USB and Bluetooth connection. The connection is also lost when I power off the phone manually. But that rarely happens: it always freezes before I even get to that point and then it doesn’t respond to anything.
Also, when I unplug the device before it freezes, I get an ARM error saying I need to go to some specific memory address or ARM will break. If I go to that address, the phone freezes with screen off, if I let the ARM break (what the...?!) it freezes with screen on .
I just flashed back to original ROM. The first sync is alright. If it stays alright, then definitely the custom ROM can be 'blamed'. If no further is heard, then everything is fine again with original ROM.
