What you need
A stable radio rom, and id recommend that you skip using the
extended rom for now since there might be programs that is incompatible
with Windows Mobile 2005. So, get a blank extended rom for installing.
Id recommend using the new radio rom from WM2003SE that seems
to be the most stable so far.
To install this, you also need nk.nbf, Patch1.exe to patch nk.nbf to work
with your XDA II (whateverbrand). And you need the update utility.
Summary of files:
Actice Sync 4.0 beta.exe
HimaUpgradeUt.exe
nk.nbf
patch1.exe
"empty" extended rom. ms_nbf
1. Installing Activesync 4 Beta.
- Install ActiveSync 4. Make shure that you can sync with your XDA II
just like it is, with the current Windows Mobile.
- If you run into problems, remove ActiveSync and reinstall.
- If it still wont work, try removing the device driver in windows control
panel - system - device manager. Look for the driver on the error messege.
(have not tested this, but should work if you have driver problems)
2. Going to boot mode.
- Put your XDA II in boot mode, by pressing the direction key left while
holding the off button and then pressing reset button with your stylus.
- It should go black, displaying only a version Nr. Like V 1.03 or V 1.06.
3. Patching nk.nbf.
- Run the Patch1.exe to fix the nk.nbf for your XDA II.
- Now run the WM2005 update program (HimaUpgradeUt.exe) and follow
onscreen instructions. If it complains about Country ID, download
the tool ER2003Edit.
Link: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ER2003Edit
Make shure you do as it says on the info page on this, so that you wont
change anything you shouldnt change!
When in boot mode, the thing to edit should normally be the brand name.
So set it to the brand on your XDA II.
4. Finishing up!
-When it is done, just reset your device and you all set.
5. About WM2005 bugs and stops.
- The new operating system handles memory differently, so you cant
install the programs in the default directory because of low memory install
it to the Storage Card (SD), in Active Sync 4.0 you can not chose this, but
you will be prompted on the device after install of a program.
- Some programs that have _not_ been rewritten into WM2003SE does
not work, and will likely to crash on WM2005.
That is mainly directed to programs that have heavy multimedia demands,
or rewrites the screen graphics.
- Be aware that bad SD card may slow down the system
extremely! But if that is the problem, i promise you will notice!
Skinning programs is to forget directly, i have not found a single program
that works.
- Pocketbreeze have problems updating on the Today screen, i do not
know if that is because of the new database system or if it is a new today
screen code. Also, contactbreeze does not work at all, seems like the
database for handling contacts is all new.
Good news!
Bluetooth works perfecly, and syncing is flawless, its faster and seems
more stable. (i will write more good things later, have to go eat now)
Hi, can anyone help me and tell how to make hard reset on htc ARTE100?

Problems with Room, Bluetooth, Wifi, overall System Restore needed
Good evening .
I have been trying to solve a problem that i have with my o2 xda. The problem is that the Bluetooth device is not working, it won’t even start, and I tried to turn it on from the communications manager but nothing. I tried to turn it on from the settings/communications/Bluetooth/turn Bluetooth make it visible to devices, but also nothing.
It turns on when I soft reset the device a few times, than sometimes it comes back on with the Bluetooth on, blue light flashing, but I’m unable to get it to pair with any devices. Sometimes my laptop will pick up the signal for a few seconds, but it is not able to sink with device.
I have tried everything I could think of, even have done some hard resets but nothing.
Someone told me to do an Artemis reset. So I downloaded the 4.02 with cube zip that I found around this website, but since I have never done such a procedure, in fact this is my first time with windows mobile, so I didn’t want to mess it up.
I read in this forums that third party applications can cause sometimes this problems because of driver contamination , my device did have lots of extra apps so that could be the problem .
In any case I’m not an expert, not even close especially with this system, so any help / suggestions / diagnostics / instructions, will be greatly appreciated.
The device is an o2 xda with built in gps, running windows mobile 6.1.

And if the best solution is to do this artemis reset, i will really appreciate some instructions on how to exactly do this task, and if there is any known issues of this procedure killing the phone? , since sometimes with this types of "resets / flashes” this type of devices sometimes dies! So any help will be appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

hi, have anyone schema arte100 (htc p3300)? thanx.
Just had to do a fresh, install of Vista HPrem due to HDD failure.
WMDC is now out of beta, and I followed the install instructions from the download site to the letter, hard reset my Orbit.
Everytime I plug the orbit it, WMDC says 'connecting' for about 10 secs, then gives me a 'set up you device' / 'connect as a guest' dialogue for about 1 second before saying 'disconnected'.
I've literally tried this via system restore and even another fresh install of Vista loads of time and keep getting the same thing.
I had no real problem getting connected with WMDC beta's once I realised they existed.....how I wish I could download one now!
Any Ideas?
TIA
debully
x-posted to MS community support forums.
Vista runs fine with my orbit. There is a driver update you should get, but for me that only resolved a problem connecting Windows Media Player 11 to my storage card - the phone sync'd fine on Vista ever since I got it in February...
Maybe a hard reset is needed, or you can try connecting your orbit to another computer and deleting the connection to your old (beta) computer from there?
Tried that - a few times. Installed, reinstalled, robooted, reformatted, got updates from WU and manual, got driver update, hard resetted, reformatted......followed instructions to letter everytime. It dont work!
I reckon this is a new problem with the Orbit and WMDC 6 final. i.e. should you have a fresh install of Vista, and a freshly hard reseted device - they wont talk to each other.
I never had problems right from beta time, but fresh installs and hard resets are probably a rare condition today, something in the final release has been overlooked.
If anyone has successfully got a clean Orbit working with the please enlighten me.
Anyone got a beta 3 of WMDC knwocking about, I'm 99% sure I'll have no problem with that.
REALLY surprised others have not yet experienced this problem. It is only a matter of time........
Can someone please tell me what driver the use for the Orbit - I think there is a problem with the final version of WMDC detecting what device is in use when it installs the driver. It gives me a box saying 'installing device driver' and when clicked it says 'unidentified device'
The driver appears in device manager on my faulty system for 1 second under PORTABLE DEVICES > WINDOWS MOBILE DEVICE and is version 6.0.6000.16386 before dissapearing!
If i knew the correct driver - I could probably forcably install it.
There are one or two other people floating round the net now with this problem not al with orbits though. I've tried someones suggestion of opening a few ports in Vista Firewall (which aint even enabled) - no good.
TIA
Try disabling the advanced network functionality mode from the USB to PC if you have that on your orbit.
When you connect your orbit, check as well if a local network connection is created under Network Connection.

Tried disabling the advanced network setting. Same fault. Connects for about 1 second then dissapears ('Smartphone Sync' remains - 'mobile device' vanishes in device manager). No network connections are made in this mode.
With advanced usb setting on a LAN connection is made and held although the 'mobile device' driver works for one second then vanishes

It's funny cause I dont even have the portable device in device manager. Maybe it's there on a default driver or something since it didn't recognise it at first. I think you need to get rid of all traces of the unrecognised device in your vista. Uninstall WMDC and the driver and start from a clean page, only plug in your device once everything has installed correctly. I'm having no problems with WMDC whatsoever on vista business, you have a weird problem buddy, it must be the different versions of WMDC.
Cheers.
cheers,
I reckon if you've upgraded from xp or a previos incarnation of wmdc then your ok. Or maybe if your device has previosly worked with wmdc.
I seem to think that if you have a clean install of vista, and a brand new device then you are ****ed.
Theres enough people floating round the net now with this problem to indicate to MS that there is a real problem. Lets see how quickly the giant responds.
If somebody could just go to the trouble of posting the drivers that appear under device manager when they plug their artemis in - well it would probably cure my issue.
I know it's a lot to ask, you have to monitor device manager, find out what changes are made after you plug in your working device, then open said devices, note driver files AND upload em.....
Is it christmas yet?

I am running a fresh install of Vista (Ultimate) with my O2 Orbit and have had no problems at all.
Thanks phil - can you indicate what drivers show up in device manager when you plug your device in please?
A fresh install on my side as well. Unfortunately mate no devices pop up in my device manager when I plugin my orbt. Sorry dude can't help there. Format your pc and start with a clean one that ought to fix everything up for you

I hope it's not too obvious a question, but did you download the Vista Mobile Device Manager update from the Microsoft web site - I don't think that you can get vanilla Vista to sync with an Artemis without it.
In C:\Windows\System32\Drivers, there is WpdRapi.dll and WUDFRd.sys loaded when the Artemis is connected. Both are 6.0.6000.16386 (vista_rtm.061101-2205).
Hope this helps ...
Phil - thanks again for the reply.
Yes I have the official downlaod from the official source.
I've successfully managed to install and sync an c500, c600 and m500 with wmdc with no problems.
But the drivers for the artemis just will not stick for more than one second before they say that the device has been disconnected.
Interestingly (although not sure about relevance) the serial driver loaded for the M500 is 'Pocket PC USB Sync' and the one for the Artemis is 'Smartphone USB Sync' - although forcing the driver does not resolve the issue.
I have created a new partition and installed vista on it. I get EXACTLY the same symptons before any drivers are installed (ie. on first boot) and after all updates (including afore mentioned official WMDC and driver update).
When the device is first plugged in I get a box come up which says 'installing unknown device' with a line below which says 'unidentified device - searching pre-configured folders). This never recognisises any devices but I am unable to find the unidentified device in device manager to manually force a driver.
Cheers for reading.
Nothing has ever foxed me so much for so long on a PC!
Nothing I try resolves this problem. And I now believe I have tried everything, including:
reinstalling vista on a new partition,
trying to install without additional drivers,
with additional drivers,
3 different cables,
virus scanners off, f
irewalls off,
3 other devices connect/sync ok,
uninstalling and reinstalling wmdc and driver update - reboots in between,
port opening,
driver forcing,
new bios - old bios.
Advanced USB connectivity on/off
Amonst other stuff! And still the problem is the same:
I plug in the phone - and the device listed in device manager under poertable devices (Windows Mobile device) appears until just after the 'set up your device' box appears in WMDC then dissapears. WMDC then reports 'not connected'
The driver which dissapears reports this to ms:

SOLVED
FFS I hope this helps someone and am fairy sure it will.
The problem is MS's answer to the problems that ppl were having syncing from wmplayer and their storage cards (I guess)
Basically, everytime the device is connected a few processes connected with windows media player start and if not manually ended will terminate the connection.
To be able to terminate these processes I had to put my laptop into power saving mode to lower the cpu speed and gain enough time to hit the 'end process' button a few times.
When you finally manage to stop each wmplayer connected service (i used task manager sorted alphabetically to see them) the device will install and WM
DC will finally sync.
Things to note:
WMDC and WMDC drive update were uninstalled - pc was rebooted.
advanced usb connectivity was turned off on device
existing partnerships had been deleted in activesync on device
*autoplay options set to 'do nothing' in Vista control panel*
Although this problem did not appear on 3 of my old devices, it is not a specific Artemis problem as I have read MANY reports of the same behaviour.
WMplayer will have to be manually killed on each connection or the device will disconnect - any ideas how to stop WMDC from launching on pluggin in device are welcome.
I lost a weekend to this.
SAme problem...really pi$$ing me off...though the above did not work for me..so gna rebuild my PC!
pi$$ed me off so much that I ebayed my Orbit and got a m700. No problems with this baby, running mUn's WM6 and its fast as a fast thing.
I noticed I had no problems syncing with the SD card taken out.
I also remember that I had stuck all my mp3's on the sd card via WM11 and the card reader on my lappy - this might be what causes a conflict. Just a hunch.
Hope you get it sorted soon - sadly it took me ages to find out just the cause of the problem and reformatting pc / hard resetting artemis did jack ****. I'm certain that wm11 had issues with my SD. Dont lose too much time on it - its far quicker to order another phone, and providing you have less than 7 months left on your contract, you could probably make a bit of cash - lifes too short to sit there working out other ppl's mistakes! Never again.
Good luck - and see you in the trinity forum soon!
debully
lol..
Well...little over an hour later all back up and running..and i have also put my backed up data back in..Orbit is also now working....
Hey Sam and debully, I have exactly the same problem. Things I tried to fix the issue:
- changed usb cable, switched between different USB slots
- soft-reset, hard-reset phone no luck
- went from XP to Vista but same problem
- uninstalled all USB Drivers, rebooted, plugged in my HTC P3300, but no success.
- Tried on 3 pc's, but every pc say's USB-device unrecognized
If you read above you probably think it's broken, but the phone synced flawlessy for 3 months untill now
Vista does recognize the phone, and it installs 'Windows Mobile Remote Adapter', but then just nothing happens. WMDC can' t connect. So like you said debully, I launched Taskmanager before installing Windows Remote Adapter. After the installation of the adapter a Windows Mediaplayer proccess starts for just 1 second, and then it's gone. You think this is the problem? In your case tthere were more WM proccesses he? If it is, is there a program which slows down the CPU of a desktop, so I can terminate it?
Don't feel like sending it to a factory, I still have little hope I can fix this.
Thnx for reading, srry for bad english

p.s: Sam, how did you fix it?

When I try to install Windows Sideshow I get the following errors:
1. A problem has occurred with tmarshaller.exe
2. A problem has occurred with shell32.exe
When I click these errors away the installation is finished, but then my device doesn't respond to anything.
After a soft reset I can start Sideshow, but even when the device has a bluetooth connection with my computer it gives the following message:
"Make sure that this device is paired with the PC over Bluetooth and that the PC is turned onn and within range.
If this problem persists, wait a few minutes and try again."
When I remove the application and reinstall it again I get the same problems.
Anyone know what I can do to make it work?
Using Windows Sideshow on Xperia X1
Hi, I can't help with the error codes but I have successfully loaded Windows Sideshow onto my Xperia X1 and can see information from my Desktop PC.
Background info:
PC Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Xperia Operating System: Energy ROM based on WM 6.5.3
The steps I took were to install my USB Bluetooth adapter but install using the Standard Bluetooth stack drivers that are built into Windows 7, create a Pairing between my X1 and PC so i never need to input a code when transferring data.
I then installed the Windowssideshowforwindowsmobile.cab and .NetCF V2.cab to my X1 (Install to Device and not storage card)
then go to control panel on your PC and under Devices you should see your Phone/PDA listed - access the settings option by right clicking and go to the 'Services' tab, select all Bluetooth services by putting a Tick into the box.
I had options for Activsync over bluetooth and windows sideshow.
then on your Phone/PDA start the Sideshow app and select connect.
to add new apps/gadgets to your device go to Control panel/windows sideshow.
Hope this Helps.
