i need help - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi, I've a big problem, i bought a new i-mate k-jam pda the last tuesday (ebay), with no operator ( i think is unlock), the problem is when it starts, appear a blue screen with the numbers of the OS, GSM,IPL,SPL, and the windows don't start, i tried to do a hard reset many times, but it's impossible, the format failed, and the hard reset don't work, i tried to put the latest roms using the boot loader screen, but don't work again, it's like impossible access to the rom, anybody knows how can i fix this issue? thanks a lot.
sorry I've got very bad english.

If you said where you were from and which language you were familiar with rather than just having the Union Flag (indicating UK) in your profile you may get someone who can pm you in your native language.
The only thing I can think of is to re-flash the firmware (which you've tried), but it may be a hardware problem.

sorry, i'm spanish, but i'm living in UK, thanks for reply, I'm thinking to send the pda to the service centre, but the technical support don't give me answer about that yet. :twisted: this is a nightmare.

JasJar ROM update - Another brick hits the wall

I have downloaded the new Shipping ROM update from ClubImate.com (uni_cdl-me_11238_132_10301_ship.exe) and tried installing it onto my JasJar with a horrible result: it's now only good to use as a paper weight Initially everything looked fine; the ROM utility detected the device and correctly displayed the existing versions of CE image, Device Extended image and Device Radio image, along with the versions it was going to upgrade to. It reset the JasJar (what I'd think was erasing the current versions), but has since been unable to install the upgraded versions. Result: a (virtually) dead JasJar :evil:
I have done the following in order to try and get it up and running again:
1) Several soft and hard resets - the best effort is a screen (with no back light) saying 'Serial' at the top and 'v0.60' at the bottom.
2) Uninstalled ActiveSync and tried reinstalling both version 4.10 and 4.1
3) I have tried to complete the upgrade procedure on two different PCs; one running WinXP SP2 and Win2K SP4.
Despite these efforts, the ROM installation utility is unable to detect the device (ActiveSync's device detection has been dodgy from the word get-go, despite WinXP detecting it every single time - although saying it's unable to identify it) resulting in the following error message from the ROM Update Utility:
In the Dialog's title bar: "R:3030 D:21200 U:11000 P:857873 - CB1" and the message "Error 101: Connection Error".
Please, please, please (with sugar ontop); can anyone of all you clever people out there offer some help or hope?
Thank you very much :!:
sure you did hardresets?
You´re really stuck in bootloader? strange... if it happens to me, i just do the standard hardreset: keep the 2 softbuttons pressed, resest with the stylus, and the confirm with 0 (zero). did you do that?
Yup - really stuck
Yes, I'm afraid the normal hard reset (Soft keys+Stylus reset) followed by entering '0' to confirm the reset, only brings me back to the boot loader...
same here
Help?
I had the same problem once with my himalaya and it was due to a firewall and virusscanner.
I turned them off- Look in your taskmanager that there isn't still running a service in the background. then I reinstalled the update and tried i new hard reset.
This worked for me I hope it will help you too
Good luck
1. pres ctl alt sup
2. kill wcesMgr.exe and wcscomm.exe
3. Connect your jasjas
4. Now your bootloader must show USB in the screen
5. Run the upgrade.
It should works...
Good luck

Dear oddball,
Did you find solution to your problem?
I have the same problem!
dherrero's solution did not work for me.
Hope to hear another solution.
Thanks
Sorted...
First of all, thanks a lot to everyone who tried to lend a helping hand (what an absolutely brilliant forum this is!!! ).
However, neither of the solutions suggested worked for me, as I after lots more trial and error, worked out that the problem had to be hardware related. And I'm pleased to say that fault wasn't in the JasJar; in fact it was down to an un-original sync cable :idea: ! I managed to lose the one that came with the device (along with the CD and everything else that was in the box ) and after consulting Club imate support, was (obviously wrongly) told that any standard min-USB cable would do the trick. Ordered a new cable from where I bought the JasJar, and hey presto, problem solved. ROM upgrade worked without a hitch on first attempt - I didn't even have to disable my anti-virus or fire-wall software.
It might not be the solution for everyone else who seems to be struggling, but it worked for me, so if you've run out of options, it's worth a go.
Again, thanks a lot - and good luck to those still seeking a solution.
I have the sam problem
CRAP cant work it out
Hi,
Had the same problem..
- flashing ROM said 100% successful, but after power+reset still got "serial v1.00"
- tried different ROMs, no luck
- tried power and hard reset, no luck
- then tried JasJar ROM again, no luck
- but then I tried the radio ROM flash and the power-reset brought it to life.
So I recommend trying
a) just the radio update first, if no luck
b) jasjar THEN radio
See how you go.
Michael

XDA dead on rom update

Hi
I have just tried to update the rom on my xda exec (downloaded from the o2 microsite) it seems to load fine, but when i do a reboot I just get a wierd green & red speckled screen.
I have tried to update the rom twice now, once when the xda was on, & once from the bootloader screen.
Both times it seems to install correctly, but i get the strange screen.
HELP!!!
Add. My battery seemed to go to about 30% whilst i was updating. Could it be the battery? Can't charge it now to test. Can still get in bootloader screen.
PLEASE HELP!! Thanks
Same Here
I have exactually the same problem!
I downloaded the latest ROM from the My-XDA webiste (O2 Ireland) and it supports the XDA Exec as sold in UK and Ireland.
The upgrade goes fine but when I hard reset it just get a fuzzy screen full of red/green spots (lise interferance on a TV).
Have reinstalled the ROM from another PC and the same thing.
Can access the bootloader (v2.01) with no problem.
Have downloaded the ROM from another PC and tried from there and same thing?
Can anyone help?
Is there a known good ROM file that someone has used to rule out the file, as the XDA was fine until I ran the update.
Please help,
IrishLad

Update
I have tried 2 other ROM's on my XDA Exec and its exactually the same issue.
Once it gets flashed successfully and reboots i get the hazed screen which i cannot use. So its not the ROM file.
Has anyone got help with this, I have searched the posts already and found no solution that it why I have posted this thread.
Please Help,
Thanks,
IrishLad
So its not just me then! Thought I had cocked it up.
If this has already come up in these forums, I cant find it. Please at least send link to the previous problem if it is in here somewhere.
My XDA is dead!
Many thanks for your time & knowledge

ExtROM :UNLOCKED

the screen is funky but the xda is dead
I too am having this problem and am getting very frustrated.
I have searched the forum for hours and am not getting any closer to a sollution.
If anyone has resolved this problem in the past please send me a private message. I will love you forever if you do.
I had the same problem i think its a dodgy rom on the O2 website
I went into boot mode and used this ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297256
Works a treat and is loads better than the normal o2 Rom
Thanks for the feedback
I have tried a few ROM's already with no success.
I will however try the ROM you posted and let you know if it works...
Thanks,
IrishLad
IT WORKED!
Not sure how, or why this worked.
But i installed the Crossbow ROM as listed previous and its working.
And can I just say the Exec is brillant now, its much faster, more responsize and works perfectly.
Thanks for the info, but I had tried 2 different ROM's previously and they never worked let I used one previously with no problems.
Either way I am now staying with Mobile 2006.

Pocket pc help

Hi
i have a pocket pc prem phone 2003 (KP 300 phone model)product of keysmart a flop company. Now the problem is that when i turn on the phone only the blank screen on which the model written on the top is apperad and nothing else. so kindly any one help me that what happened to my phone and what should i have to do to get my phone back on working.
i have download the window mobile 6 and try to upgrade it but it gives the error rom is corrupted. so kindly can anyone guide me or post here the tutorial what software i need and from where i can download it to get my phone back again in working condition. Thanks
Waiting for your replys..............................
Welcome to the forum!
Please note that we generally deal with phones made by HTC here and though other devices are mentioned occasionally it is best to refer to a more specific forum if such exists for your device.
I tried googling for the name of the phone you gave and came up with nothing resembling a WM 2003 phone edition pocket PC.
You will need to give full name and model of your phone and preferably a link to some info about it.
Even then if this is not a popular model you will likely get no answers.
Meanwhile, I suggest you look in the manual for how to preform a "hard reset". If this is a software fault hard reset should restore your phone to factory settings and fix the problem.
Note the ROMs are very specific! You can not just pick a WM 6 ROM and try it on your phone. If the phone stopped working because of a failed upgrade it is possible that you corrupted the OS / bootloader and is very likely that only a professional repairer shop can restore your phone.

Thanks for you quick reply the model of my pocket pc is
" keysmart kp 300 " actually i bought this from the cyprus and now i am in pakistan this phone is still in warrenty but i still have no plan to go back to the cyprus so i am searching for a way to make my phone in working condition again. i also google a lot but the search resultes came in turkish language and still it is bit difficult for me to understand turkish.
i have perform a warm and cold reboot but in vain. and the site of the company " www.keysmart.com " only come up with the email at this crap. So plz if any one can help i will be really thankfull to him.

ppc problem: white screen after upgrade

Hi there, new guy here and with a big problem
i have a bluemedia pda 255, from what i understand it's the same thing with mio 168 (or not?), anyway, it was using a windows mobile 2003 SE in german and i tried to change it to english using a .bin image i found on the web.
now when it starts all i see is a white screen and nothing more, and that wouldnt be such a big problem if i could enter the upgrade tools mode, but i cant do that either, so it simply stays all blank all the time. I can connect it to my pc via usb and i can browse all the pda's files using activesync, but that's all i can do.
Before i started i've made a backup using activesync and another backup using osloader. Now i've tried the activesync backup and i get an error message telling me that the backup version is different from the one on the pocket pc.
The .ppcrom file that i've made using osloader i dont know how to use it to restore my old OS withouth having to access the pda (sience i cant).
from what i understand, there is a way to fix it using JTAG, but that's science fiction to me (i only had this pda for about two days, and this is my first pda also, so i'm a real newbie), i cant find any sort of professional service in this town to get help from them.
so... any help, any help at all would be welcomed
...is there nobody?
Hi,
I do not have the pda you have but do have some advice.
You keep saying "from what i understand" , did you get this "understanding" from this site or another?
If you got it here, please post your problem to the forum thread that has the info.
If you got it elsewhere, you may want to post there and see what response you can get.
Not trying to be cavalier here but a person can only help if they have had the experience of the pda you own, if they do not, they most likely will not post advice.
Good luck.
well. no... my understanding did not came from here, i have it from a thread started in 2005 (other site)and i asked there also, i also agree that someone can help only if he has the experience of this pda...
which is more likely why i find myself in this situation, i think i followed the upgrade guide from another pda
and about the advice, sience at this moment all i can do with the pda is to throw it at the garbage, im willing to try anything on it
id even try the jtag thingie, that requires me to open up the pda and mess around inside, but i have a great lack of info about the subject and no expertise whatsoever
kind thanks for your advices, as i said before, they are welcomed!
ok, something else then, does anyone have the RUU? the rom update utility in german for my kind of ppc? thanks
I have the same problem !

Energy ROM semi bricked my Dash, help needed! (And appreciated)

Hello everyone, I am really new to this forum having received the Dash 2 days ago. Looking to get it up to speed I flashed the 6.5 Energy Rom according to instructions. I think that was a very bad move, because now the cellphone is stuck on the Loading Energy Rom screen. I have searched the forum for answer and have already tried the following:
1- Entering bootloader and flashing original ROM. No luck because EVERY rom I have gotten, be it from here and T-Mobile, it says invalid vendor ID.
2-Tried to perform a hard reset. Did not work.
3-Flash the original ROM through the memory card. No avail.
The phone cannot connect to active sync, so I can't install any cooked ROMS. I think the solution is installing the original ROM by the bootloader, but I cant seem to find a compatible one. My cell information is the following:
Bootloader screen info: ONBL 1.22.0000 SPL 1.22.0000 IU
EXCA 100 S/N SZ713FE05873.
Is there any way with that information someone can tell me which ROM to use? Or any other tip/hint/suggestion? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
I have the same Bootloader screen info: ONBL 1.22.0000 SPL 1.22.0000 IU value and i was able to restore my phone to working status with the following ROM

That's odd, I was able to restore my Excalibur/Dash after flashing the corrupted EnergyRom.
Hope you will find a way to resolve your problem.
10507
But how did you do it? Flashing it through USB or through the memory card? The weird thing is that when I run the EXE the cellphone that appears in the picture of the program is an SDA. But well I will try it again and thank you for the help!
I used bootloader method and connected my phone through USB for flashing. Remember to remove your memory card when flashing.
well, I've been in your situation for almost 3 days now, and still no solution for it, maybe it's time to put it in the box and purchase a new one , all thanks to the broken EnergyROM ...
Ok guys. Don't give up. Believe it or not, a Dash is NOT easy to brick like some other devices. the steps are fairly clear but let me refresh:
- Go into bootloader by holding the camera button and powering on the phone
- Connect the USB cable, you will hear the ba-bing USB connect sound on your PC (if u don't thats why you're having issues flashing)
- Download and unpack a "factory sealed" signed ROM. I use this one: http://rapidshare.com/files/7886560...S_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship.exe.html
- With USB connected and the phone in the multicolor bootloader, run RomUpdateUtility.exe, check the boxes, it next, bla bla bla.
- It will look for your device for 20 seconds. then hit "update" and next.
- It should then start flashing the Excalibur Brightpoint Factory ROM back onto your phone
- If you can't get this far or it fails, try a different PC or Flash from the SDcard
** NOTE: If flashing from USB, REMOVE the SD CARD! This is the biggest mistake of most people trying to flash from USB.
Good luck.

Thanks ookba for cheering us up. I'm having the same problem like many, many people in this forum hopeless seeing our dash not responding to every solution proposed in this forum and the only thing that we have right now is keep trying to flash and see if it works. I will try again in different PC and see what happens. I'll let all of you know if I finally resurrect my s621.
Thanks everyone for all the help! It's hard to find people that are so helpful on internet forums. I'm still in the same situation as gmaniac and alexalexoe but hopefully we can find something that will fix our problems

Thanks 105507 but no success at all, I even found 2 more factory roms in the web and also they don't work. I own an unbranded international version s621 manufactured by Brightstar corporation (I tried to flash Brightstar's stock rom but it didn't work) and I noticed this because in the warranty docs it says brigthstar corporation and originally the phone came with WM5.
not that this will help. but this is one of the reasons why people should be really installing the hardspl so if you have a bad flash, you dont have to install a stock rom. any rom whether be it cooked or not will work. but this hardspl must be done prior to installing ANY rom. the hard spl is done by jockyw2001. send him a pm to see if theres anyway to get that on the phone, even in its current state.
edit: here's the link to the hardspl: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329605

Have you done a reset? My friend fixed his by trying reset a few times. He reset it, walked away...., it took long time to see whether it booted over; if not, do it again...
By the way, he leave the sim card in; and, you need to remove your micro sd card.
On an official site it is possible download ROM for your phone. It is flashing from bootloder mode. It some times helped me, while I have not flashed hard SPL.
