xda 2s, freezing

I just bought a o2 xda 2s on ebay.
I was wanting a pocket pc phone that i could hook up to a serial port device I use at work.
The phone works great so far but when i installed the program i use at work everytime i try to load a file it freeze's while trying to load file. I have used this program on HP pda's with not 1 issue. Just wanted to have a all in 1 handheld unit.
Currently this is what I have:
Model: ph20b Pocket PC
wm2003se
version 4.21.1088 (build 15045.2.6.0)
rom version 1.40.00 WWE
rom date 3/10/05
radio version 1.12.00
protocol version 1337.42
ext. rom version 1.40.242 WWE
What would make it freeze like it does, only with this program, and can i upgrade to wm5 (how?). Are there any other upgrades you know would make it more stable a fix the freezing issue?
This is the first pocket pc phone i have had so i have no idea as to what,where and how to start fixing.
Thanks for any help you guys may provide!!!!

For WM5 look here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home my signature shows what Rom I use. I find it good. I don't what could be causing the freezing. What is the program?

Here is a link to software im using.

I have read the info on ba wm5 rom and still dont know how to install. i use a pc to check email and thats it, so im a little new to this stuff.
Can someone help step-by-step me through this a little
do i need a sd card as i don't have one. to update to wm5
The phone is new and i dont' have any data on it that i need.
Thanks Guys

I have downloaded the following file on my PC Desktop.
Helmi_wm2k5_aku3.2_32mb (rar file)
I extrexcted it in its own new file and now have the following files.
1)extrom
2)AddOn
3)ph20b
4)ph20b1
5)wm2k5_aku3.2_32mb_v1.3.2
6)Helmi_aku3.2_v1.3.2.txt
what next?

Yes you would need a SD card you can get a 1gb really cheap on ebay and then you can store programs etc on it.

Well I must confess I haven't done it I bought mine of ebay with WM5 on it already. The fellow I bought mine off will upgrade other units for $150 AUS I think. If you aren't in Aus he still would proberly do it.

i got wm5 in an exe file from www.buzzdev.net i think and all i had to do was put my xda 2s in boot loader mode stick it in its cradle and run the file easy peasy

you DO - NOT need an SD card (i did it , i dont have one)
here is the guide to install
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Helmi
i DID NOT DO THE OPTIONAL INTERNAL MEMORY BIT
Copy the nk.nbf file to folder that match ur device (PH20B/PH20B1)
* Determine your operator Information e.g.: "T-MOB101", or "Vodafone", or O2. See GetDeviceData.
* Open a command prompt, (open "run", type cmd , press enter), go to the folder where the ROM(nk.nbf) file resides (mine is c C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\pda\oprade\Helmi\PH20B - notice the c is the command) and execute: SetOperator ??? (where ??? is your operator , mine was SetOperator ORANG001)
# Put your device into Bootloader mode by pressing and hold the "Power" & "Record" buttons, and then press the Reset Button
# Connect the phone to the sync cable/cradle.
# Now you can upgrade the ROM using BaUpgradeUt.exe(i used this one) / MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
#
When the upgrade is completed, you must perform a Hard Reset
1.
Press and hold the "Power" button, and then press the Reset Button. Colored stripes (the bootscreen) will appear on the screen.
*
If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, EITHER:
o Quickly press "Record" & "Camera" before the versions appear at bottom right
o OR press "Power" & "Camera" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
*
If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66:
o Quickly press "Record" & "Windows Media" before the versions appear at bottom right EITHER
o OR press "Power" & "Windows Media" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
2.
You'll see three options on screen. You must change the second and the third to yes. If you are not developing/testing software you can disable the first debug option for better performance.
* If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, use "Camera" and the "Record" buttons.
* If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66, use "Windows Media" and the "Record" buttons.
3. Press the "Mail" button. A white screen will show for a while, while it is clearing your device in preparation for the new ROM to start executing
4. When the bootscreen, aka. the colored stripes is displayed, wait more, you are booting. The welcome screen to set up your device will appear shortly ...
once done copy what you need (i installed all the fixes etc) from the extrom folder to your ppc and run them to install them (once done delete the cabs)
*note doing this way you will need to setup your gprs and mms settings for your network*

Ok I'm going crazy. Where in the heck do I find setoperator.bat??
Thanks

imate PDAL ROM Upgrade problem

Hi all,
Not sure if this is the right place to ask but I am stuck at a dead end.
tried to upgrade PDAL ROM to 3.0 (from 2.01)
Got a blue i-mate screen never went out of it.
tried all the hardreset tricks, no use.
tried to reinstall RUU with activesync, no use.
What else can be done?
for example, would it be possible to delete the ROM totally and reinstall it? how?
Appreciate your comments
regards
sy

I have the same problem
Would anybody be able to help, please reply to us. Thanks!

I've just spoken to the customer service from i-Mate. This issue can only be resolved by their service centre. So, no any simple solution so far.
Please be aware when you want to upgrade it.

my device is in service center for 7 days and they could not come up with a solution. I hope it is because they did not start working on it yet

1. Download Romupdate v1.11a
2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete) kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
4. Run Romupdate v1.11a (from downloaded)
5. from left top corner drop down menu Port: Choose WCEUSBSH001 (If you only see COM 1 and COM1 try unplugging the USB and replugging it)
6. press OK button
7. type "set 14 0" without the quotes in blank window that showed up to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
8.press enter to execute
9. on next line you will see:
HTCST ÚÈÒHTCEUSB>
10.type "task 28" (no quotes) right after > sign to get your device formatted
11.press enter to execute, you gonna see:
DOC_format_HW+
DOCInfoTableinitHW+
Binary0:dwSize=80000
BINFS0:dwSize=0
FAT0:dwSize=1000000
FAT1:dwSize=2BA0000
All:dwSize=3C20000
USB>
12. type "task 0" (no quotes) right atfter > sign to ask your device reboot
13.press enter to execute the command
14. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.
good luck.

hi
wher i can find the Romupdate with arabic or without
and
how i can hard resit from the key not from system
th

Don't think mtty will work as PDAl is not an HTC device..

dear gun
thanks for your info but i want to ask you a Quastion from where i can get the driver for pdal in bootmode (rndis omap730)
thank you

PDAL Problem
I too am facing the same problem with my PDAL. I upgraded the rom version and now am just getting the initial blue screen with the imate details. Please help in solving this as i just cant seem to be going forward. Any ideas how to get the device booted up and working .

response to the above two question
1. How to enter Bootloader in PDAL?
I inquired the service people and was told it can be done by pressing power button and left soft key simuteneously and tap the reset hole. I have tried and it did work.
2. Any solution for not passing the welcome screen?
It seems there isn't any solution, other than sending to their service centre. It will take a long time. My phone has been there over 2 weeks but I was told they are still awaiting part. I guess they will replace the main board.
3. PDAL isn't HTC device?
I think it is. The code with HTC should be Pean. The service centre also listed it as HTC device. But I am not sure if MTTY can work.

How to enter Bootloader in PDAL?
my phone alwys login blu scren then restart
Im pressing power button + left soft key and tap the reset hole but not wok in Bootloader !!!

Flashing your Imate PDAL
Dear All,
I Have enough experience of Imate PDAL , It's too simple , just follow the steps below:
1- got any ROM version from Imate website "www.clubimate.com"
2- Format your Imate flash card using your PC ( use any USB card reader matches the size), "FORMAT WITH FAT OPTION ONLY , DON'T FORMAT WITH FAT32 " and keep it connected to your PC for now.
3- prepare your PC to show all hidden files using "folder option " from your PC control panel, without this you will not be able to access the below in step 5>
4- run the EXE ROM file of Imate Rom on your PC but don't follow the steps on the screen , just keep it waiting for an action)
5- now browse your PC ( go to your windows Temp folder in the boot sector of your windows " Example C:\Documents and Settings\Magdy\Local Settings\Temp"
6- Click your the right button of your mouse and chose ( arrange Icon by Modified )
7- go to the the last folder in the list and open it , you will find the following files inside that folder " CoolFlash_Comms.dll , GotoBL.exe, RUUShop.exe,WMIPL.DIP,WMUPDAT.DIP "
8- Mark the last two files "WMIPL.DIP,WMUPDAT.DIP" and copy them to your Flash Card , now you are ready to flash your mobile using your only flash card.
9- insert the flash card in your Imate PDAL , remove the Battery for 5 seconds and install it again .
10- now Press the two Bottons (Left button " above the green handset button" + Power Botton ) , the mobile will start flashing your mobile , after completion your mobile will restart automatically.
Enjoy
Hint: some other roms of Imate Pdal " Like the Chinese WM6 one " doesn't need the WMIPL.DIP file , it needs only the WMUPDAT.DIP to flash the device.
The above is safe and would not damage your Device but know that " NO DATA WOULD BE RECOVERED UNLESS YOU HAVE A BACKUP DATA FOR IT, THE DEVICE WILL BE AS FACTORY DEFAULT"

Hi Magdy, sorry for my english but i'm italian...
i bought a PDAL with english language (the seller said me that was italian ), so i would like to flash it in italian...how can i do? Is no problem to flashing, but i don't have any rom and I don't know hoe to retrieve it from the web...
In your experience, is possible to copy the italian rom from an italian PDAL (of my friend) to flash my pdal?
Is there a version of WM06 (also in english) avaiable?
thanks for all

1.download Romupdate v1.11? where?????????

Me too, where can i get this romupdater utility? and does it work with PDAL?

Thanks Magdy your procedure working fine
THANKS A LOT

For windows VISTA => C:\Users\YOUR ACOUNT\AppData\Local\Temp\is-KT0IV.tmp
Thanks for your post Magdy ! Works 100%
Greets from Romania !

Sorry for going off topic but my intentions are just to inform you guys that I just finished translating Chinese WM6 rom to English, I also added some packages and tweaked it to perform batter...
I made this rom for myself as I was unable to find and Eng WM6 rom for my PDAL and WM5 was out dated, but I also wanted to share it with you guys so that you can also enjoy using English WM6 on your PDAL devices.
So follow me.... PDAL_WM6_WWE_CellSmith.zip

dear magdi thanx alot working for me...

T Mobile Mail Uk Version

Could any one tell me how i can upgrade this phone to Windows Mobile 6.
I have tried using the USA version download but it will not load saying the phone model is wrong.
Also is it possable to activate the wi fi on this as i understand it is there but dissabled.
Any help will be much appreciated.

hi,
first unlock the phone (cid unlock)
here:
http://www.imei-check.co.uk/dashunlock.php
then download the rom for wm6
and follow this steps :
Tools you need:
===============
- HexWorkshop from http://www.bpsoft.com/downloads/
the ROM of your choice
- Winzip or Winrar
- a valid UNL file for YOUR phone
Preparation:
============
a) install HexWorkshop and Winzip or Winrar on your pc
b) in explorer on pc, RIGHT click on the ROM of your choice and use: "Extract files to folder ..." from conext menu Now it will unpack all the files
c) in the new folder you will have ONE file like "HRUU_signed.NBH" (*.NBH) RIGHT click on the .NBH file and use: "Hex Edit with Hex Workshop" from context menu
d) You'll see on the 5th row EXCA20000 ==> !!! make it EXCA***** (5 stars) and save the file
e) Now RIGHT click on ROMUpdateUtility.exe and use: "Hex Edit with Hex Workshop" from conext menu
Search for word "BsaD5SeoA" (without quotes, case sensitive)
You'll find it around address 0x3FC6C ==> !!! replace "BsaD5SeoA" with "IMEICHECK" (without quotes) and save the file
ROM-Update:
===========
1) take SIM card and SD card OUT of the phone
2) Connect the phone running windows ce to the pc (normal way).
3) Completely Unlock your phone using our unlocker <== REALLY IMPORTANT
4) After phone is unlocked run unlocker (again) BUT when the unlocker ask for UNL file, remove the USB cable from the phone THEN press "Cancel" on the unlocker select file window (unlocker will close on PC). NOTE: The screen on the device will not show something usefull when in this mode. Most probably it is complete WHITE. !!THIS IS NORMAL!! Don't touch phone, let it like it is!
5) After you closed the unlocker, attach usb cable again (phone has still white screen)
6) start (the modified) ROMUpdateUtility.exe
7) when update finished and device started you will get a message: "Data Crashed, contact service provider" (!NO PANIC!)
==> Simply fix this problem by running the unlocker again and this time select the key file normal way (full unlock process again).
just follow it exactly and it will work,
i just got scared my self when i got data chrashed, but a few minutes later everythinbg worked well.
iff you want to change anything in the rom you ll need appunlocker.
4 wifi go to connection manager and push 3
wifi is activated.
just 1 thing, youre from uk, best thing is to backup keyboard settings.
its arround in this forum what it is exactly, i forgot this and now some keys are mapped wrong (like @ £ !)
so back this up, and i could use a copy of it

im scared does this work anybody??

I have no idea why the "preparation steps" was necessary ( post #2 ) with all the HEX editing ...
WHY ???
~~~
for me ... I did the paid CID service and then followed this method ... works fine without all that messing around with HEX editing ...etc ( except for the keyboard region setting )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=288230
I've been WM5 <<<--->>> WM6 ... numerous times without any problem by the method in the link I gave.

[Q] A Problem During Upgrade JasJar

Hii all,
actually this my first post in the forum and i hope to find the solution to my small prob.
The problem is appearance some words on the jasjar screen like "usb" n "serial"
they doesn't disappear although i 'v done "reset" n "Power+reset+backlight"
They are permanently appear on the screen and make my jasjar as dead ..
----
actually i've open the rom upgrade icon from the mobile directly and i didn't use the pc at all because i didn't know how to upgrade it
----
please if someone know the solution of this prob. tell me >>
n i want to know how to upgrade the rom if i already downloaded it >>

Welcome to forums
have a read on my signature link and check for usb connection
Moving to upgrade section

Please orb or anyone can help >> ):
I want the software of the jasjar which come with the installtion cd ..
I tried to join the jasjar with the pc but there's a problem with the usb ..
Plese help me as my mobile now like dead body
Thanks In Advance ;

Hello,
First instal ActiveSync 4.5 in PC. - if not already installed
Code:
http://www.softwarepatch.com/windows/activesync.html
Then in settings in (ActiveSync) disable (NOT check): "allowed to connect to one of the following port" and "Allow connection to USB".
Perhaps the translation is correct. I use the CZ version. But it's second and third check box.
Now
This works for when the Universal is in Bootloader and Windows Mobile.
1. First download the ROM you want to install.
2. Extract it to a folder (use winar or other extraction software).
3. There will be up to 3 ROMs in the package: ms_.nbf (Extended ROM), nk.nbf (OS ROM), radio_.nbf (Radio ROM)
4. Delete those which you don't want to install. (If you just want to upgrade the radio rom for instance delete ms_.nbf and nk.nbf and leave radio_.nbf.)
5. Download UniversalRUU.zip
6. Extract it and copy into that folder the nbf files you want to install.
7. Enter BootLoader mode by pressing and holding the power button and backlight button whilst performing a reset with the stylus. And plug to PC. Wait few seconds.
8. Doubleclick ROMUpgradeUt.exe and follow the instructions
9. When the upgrade is finished pull out the USB cable from the Universal.
10. You will need to do a soft reset OR hard reset depending on the situation. (note: some say do a soft reset / others a hard reset .. possibly someone with more knowledge could correct me here, but until then it's best to investigate the matter for yourself on the forum.)
11. To do a hard reset (push the two menu buttons ("-") on the keyboard + the reset button at the same time (all of this three). Doing a hard reset will result in you losing all your installed apps and data so ensure you have a backup of everything first.) Everything should be fine from this time. You have to calibrate the screen and do some tutorial...
12. If after doing a hard reset you want your Universal not to install the extras from the Extended ROM wait untilsetup is complete and then do a softreset when the popup window appears (you have 3 seconds before it installs ExtendedROM)
For a long time I have not installed the new ROM. I remember so I proceeded as follows

2) connect your device to your pc and gain an Activesync/Windows Mobile Device Centre connection.
3) copy: "EnableRapi.cab" and "Cert_SPCS.cab" to your device using activesync/WMDC or your micro sd, run them and install them onto the device.
*when you have installed them to your device, take your Micro SD card out.
4) run START_USPL.exe on your PC, this will open a dos (black window) and your device should now have a blank screen with a penguine and a loading bar.. wait for both the PC and device to get to 100%

Cmd>ruurun 0
Cmd>ResetDevice
DO NOT COPY AND PASTE, YOU MUST TYPE MANUALY.

IF YOU HAVE "BRICKED" YOUR DEVICE, DEVICE STAYS ON HTC LOGO SCREEN, YOUR DEVICE IS STUCK IN BOOTLOADER.
download your SHIP/ORIGINAL ROM,
you should be able to identify your ship/original rom by your IPL
*i recomend getting this as soon as you can just incase, however when USPL 1.11.cmon is done, the original rom is not needed as any rom can be flashed.

CHANGING THE PAGE POOL OF A .NBH ROM FILE
you can change the page pool of the .NBH (your rom file)
changing the page pool is advised, it uses phone memory as ram which speeds the device up a little. i recomend a 4MB - 6MB page pool. (whole part)
download

FLASHING A ROM.
there are plenty of roms avaliable for your device, they can be found here:
P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development
SUGGESTED ROMS:
ANDREW82 6.1 ROM
youl need to download the cam fix.cab
download
BABBELUTS 6.5 ROM (SPB MOBILE SHELL)
(this image is not the babbelut rom, the image is spb mobile shell on wm6.1 - babbeluts rom is wm6.5)
download
*if you download a rom and there is only one file (.NBH) in the download then download this CUSTOM RUU..
download

TO VIEW AND EDIT/EXTRACT THE CONTENTS OF A .NBH ROM FILE USE HTCRIE (HTC ROM IMAGE EDITOR)
download HTCRIE
this displays the contents of a rom, eg:
1) a whole rom is a .NBH file, a rom has parts, which are .NB files
*IPL
*SPL
*GSM/RADIO
*SPLASH
*EXTENDED ROM
*OS
usually when you download a custom rom, you only get the OS.nb inside the full .NBH
download GSM/RADIO.nb
ciubi said:
I upgraded to 3.34.90 radio version and I am somehow disappointed.
I have noticed that you have used a previous version - is that better?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
* the radio rom does boost the signal but it depends on where you are located.
* a newer version of the radio rom doesnt exactly meen its better, so an older radio rom could be better than a newer version.
* for me i had better signal quality with an older version.
download EXTENDED ROM.nb
open Extended Rom.nb with HTCRIE (or add Extended Rom.nb to a .NBH)
now edit the config.txt and add your own .Cabs
Example
LOCK:Enabled
CAB: \Extended_ROM\Cab Name.cab
LOCK: Disabled
RST: Reset
SPLASH.nb is the startup image on device boot.
*dont get these mixed up with the WELCOMEHEAD.PNG or the ANIMATED.GIF also at startup.
SPLASH.nb is first image to be displayed (the image with the Red numbers and letters).
download (3 splash screnes)
OR TO MAKE YOUR OWN SPLASH.NB
download
1) Run the HTC Splash Tool
2) as soon as the "screen" changes image to the the the white HTC logo, click the "screen"
3) a window now opens, select the image you want to use as your splash
4) click the "trackball" on the HTC Splash Tool
* this will save it as a Splash.NB

....
TO FLASH A ROM BY MICRO SD AND HOW TO MAKE A GOLDCARD
1) format the micro sd card to fat32
2) put your .NBH on the storage card
3) rename the .NBH to ARTEIMG.NBH
4) put device into BOOTLOADER
5) when the device asks, press the green call button to flash.
GOLD CARD is just the correct original rom on your micro sd and flashed via bootloader.

TO HARD RESET THE DEVICE MANUALY
WARNING THIS WILL DELETE ALL YOUR PERSONAL DATA
1) Press and hold both soft keys
2) press the stylus/reset button to reset the device.
3) Press Green call button to restore manufacturer default, or press any other key to cancel.

IF YOUR DEVICE TURNS OFF FOR NO REASON, SUDDEN SHUTDOWN OF ARTEMIS OR YOUR DEVICE HAS A CONSTANT FLASHING RED LED WHEN CHARGING

if its still not fixed..
usually it is the battery that is causing the problem.
you must buy a "brand new" battery (not a spare).
1) put the new battery in your device
*do not turn it on.
2) charge the device untill green led

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK
i will not, under any circumstances, be to blame if you break your device doing this so be warned!:
3) in my experience the pins on the device mini usb were not connecting properly to the mini usb lead (to the pc usb cable).
* the best way to "quickfix" this is to open the device and bend them back into place (inwards)
be carefull because these can break easily.
(not easy to fix when broken)
* you wont need to bend the pins much.
* unplug your mini usb and check that the pc mini usb cable goes into the device, its to check the pins have not been bent too much before putting the device back together.

ICON TUTORIAL
*you can find plenty of free icons @ WWW.ICONFINDER.COM
**the way ill be showing you is with the icons inside a .dll that you can link to almost anything
eg, program shortcuts within the start menu is the most common**
download tools here
(inside tools.rar is: icofx, reshacker, blank .dll)
####################
*install and open ICOFX
*click: tools
*batch prosess
*if your doing start menu icons i use 128x128 with xp colors (max color)
add the icons you want and select the destination folder and click ok
*icons with a specific height and width are best to do these individually =
file\new or drag and drop your .PNG and select custom size
*now you have made your own custom icons.
*i have attatched a blank .dll.
*i have opened the blank .dll and added a custom icon so you can see how it works.
*it is simple enough, icons added will be labled 1,2,3 etc - then click save when done
(delete the automaticly saved .BAC file created by icofx, it is not needed)
*to link your icon to a specific program on your device, either edit your program XXXX.lnk or create a new .lnk
(rename a blank .txt file to .lnk)
*add this into the the .lnk replacing the XXXX with your program name and .dll name
#\windows\XXXX.exe ?\windows\XXXX.dll,-X
*no number before # eg, usually you would have a number of how many leters are in the link = the amount of letters is not needed
*-X is the number position of the icon inside the .dll
*if your icon is for a folder, rename the .lnk to ICON.lnk
*inside the icon.lnk should be
1#XXXX.dll, -X
*now put the ICON.lnk into the specific folder you want icon for
####################
**i will now show you how to edit/replace the icon inside either a .dll or an .exe file**
*in this example i have used the blank .dll from the first tutorial
*reshacker shows all the contents inside a .dll and also with .exe files too (not just icons)
*open/run RESHACKER
*click: file\open - select your .dll or .exe
*as you can see i have circled the icon number with red = ignore the highlighted 0 (zero)
*rightclick to get these avaliable options
*from here you will be able to replace the icon
*when finished click file\save
*it automaticly creates a XXXXX-original.dll/.exe file
*some .exe do not like their icons being changed.
