i cant get programs running in BA, like wisbar, YM Mobile, ilauncher, pls help, but the BA works fine in calling and texting, my last resort is HARD RESET again, am tired......pls help, tnx!!!!
Hiya, a few quick questions if I may:
1) How are you trying to install these programs?
2) Have you managed to get *any* third-party software running?
3) Are you still running WM2003?
4) Have you performed any rom upgrades?
That'll do for now
i install it in a normal way, via activesync, am currently running WM2005, before when i was running 2003 all seemed 2 be normal, any suggestions? tnx...............
another question how do u use the program system memory? cause when i install all the programs use storage memory not program memory, am loosing space, heheheh
AH (steps away) - you're running WM05... ok. AFAIK from skimming some of the posts here, most software you're used to running on 2003 won't work on '05. Think back to win 3.11 - win95 and I reckon it's a similar thing.
I decided not to go for WM'05 as there's nothing I wanted that it offered apart from WMP10 which is in the latest 2003 roms anyway. Plus, I have a whole batch of 2003 software which I like to run!
'Fraid I can't help mate, except to say "Run, run like a frightened rabbit!"
Hello everyone.
I have just bought my Hermes (AT&T 8525) after one year of planing so. It came with WM5. I downloaded some of the ROMSs, radio and bootloaders commented here. I tried reading all the vast infromation in this forum and the wiki, but still having a problem.
THE PROBLEM IS AS FOLLOW:
When I start the flashing process, using HTC_TyTN_WWE_3[1].54.255.3_6275_1.48.00.10_108.exe or RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.1.57.502.1_6275_1.48.00.00_108
... everything goes well, until the progress bar appears in my PC. When it appears, ActiveSync in my PC closes and my Hermes goes to stand by (the lcd goes off) so I cannot complete the installation process.
The phone works pretty well and I'm really amazed for all its capabilities. But still, I'm stucked with wm5.
Why do you think this happened?
PS: I flashed the radio (1.51.00.10) and bootloader (HARD SPL v7). My ROM version is 2.15.502.3. I use "ActiveStink" to sync my files without problems.
Any advice will be more than welcome!!
I'm no expert but that appears to be normal behaviour!
ActiveSync is only used at the start of the process. After a few files have been transfered, Activesync is closed and a different link is established. If you just leave it for a short while longer, a progress bar should appear on the Hermes too.
Yes, ActiveSync will disconnect. The RUU takes over the connection. Have you let it sit - sometimes it takes a minute for the progress bar to move.
Have you consulted www.mrvanx.org for help on the flashing?

I'm having the same problem - always have. The message tells me that I'm disconnected and that I should check my USB connect etc. I left that box up there for about 15 minutes. Now I've closed the box and have waited several minutes with no activity. This is pretty aggravating. Thanks for any help.
try turning off your antivirus aplication. thats work for me flashing my tytn to wm6.
I've done everything.... I guess
Hi...
Yes, I consulted the www.mrvanx.org, excellent tutorials.
I flashed without problem the radio and bootloader. The progress bar started to "progress" and everything was fine. The only problem I have is flashing the WM6.
I don't remember where, but I readed that flashing the bootloader "Hard SLP v7" causes my HTC not to accept any Oficial WM6 ROM. The article said that I only had the chance to flash a coocked or modified ROMs. Is this true?
If not... what else can it be? I also closed all my applicacations including the antivirus, goback, disabled the internet connection, the logictec mouse center, etc. and nothing, the same as Chicoh happens to me.
"Error 260: Connection... check the USB cable bla bla bla."
Should I restart in safe mode to do the flashing?
Should I try to install a modified ROM?
Have in mind I've tried three different official ROMs: WWE, Cingular and spanish.
Thanks to all the comunity!!!
Saludos desde México!!
Greetings -
I had a similar problem and couldn't get the thing get going. My solution was to load it from the SD card. This worked flawlessly.

I'm trying that as we speak. I have a good feeling about this. I'm a little concerned that I didn't think of it though. Makes perfect sense - Skip the middle man.
UPDATE: Crap. No luck. Thanks all the same though. I'm not giving up.
What OS are you using, xp or vista? My vista 'top had the same problem wouldnt flash for the longest time and i had to use my xp.
However, it does work now. Not entirely sure why.
Now I had success!!!
Hello my friends.
It seems that the article I readed days ago detailing that after flashing the Hard SPL v7, I could only install a modified ROM, not an official one from HTC or Cingular.
I downloaded Black Satin and installed it without any troubles. The entire process lasted only 3 minutes!!!
I wanted to have an official ROM, don't ask me why, and never tried the "other" ROMs that are actually excellent!!! some apps that were on WM5 are not in WM6, which is kind of sad, but if there's something that I love of WM Smartphones is that I can download and install whatever I want or develop it if it doesn't exist!!!
By the way, I use Windows XP Pro.
Thanks for all the support!!!
PS: Before flashing the Hard SPL v7, I tried installing the cingular WM6, but didn't make it. That's why I readed almost all the pages and threads here in xda-developers and found that flashing a new bootloader was a very good idea. The rest of the story is known by you.
Guys,
I am ****ed.
Just installed the new pays rom - and then my standard applications like the spb software suite.
Just rebooted the device, and it now keeps on hanging on the bootloader.
Tried to reset the phone several times to no avail.
Anybody got a clue what might cause this?
Thx in advance,
trial
Flash the rom you had before when the device gets to bootloader mode.
Or one official rom.
Logically it should be ok and the rom will be flashed to your tytn
thx for the quick reply
Hi,
I had the same Problem. I solve it by flashing the 2.15 lite (German) Version.
But that fix just the problem with the booting. Now, the Bootloader 2.03 and can't flash anything else.

You might watch the language, we all know how to curse here, comes naturally from repeated flashing.....
So, I'd advice flashing an official ROM and take it from there. My last posts have referenced this, so follow the bouncing ball.
seems like problem for a lot of wm 6.1 roms. Been suggested that its a compatability problem with wm5/6 3rd party apps. try HR then put your apps on and test for a day or 2 to see if that app is the problem then put on next app etc.... Cheers

Agreed with ultramag69 ... not all wm5/6 3rd party apps compatible with wm6.1 .. so be prepared.
Faced this problem last time... install nice wm6.1 rom (TNT) but not compatible with my favorite apps so shift back to wm6 rom (schaps)
When I sync my dash with my Vista Desktop, I see the following errors at times
Notification - Cannot execute Tskschedule.exe
- Cannot execute repllog.exe
- Cannot execute connmgr.exe
- Cannot execute calnote.exe
Anyone seen these errors. I downgraded to Windows Mobile Device Center 6.0 on Vista, but I still see the error. I did not see them in brightpoint ROM.
If I disconnect & reconnect to the usb, it works, but I do get these errors every other time..
Thanks in advance
what are you using to sync? activesync doesn't work with vista.
I am using Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1
I reverted back to the old ROM (Brightpoint) and now I dont see those errors.
Anyone here using win 6.1 ROM and has synced with their VISTA desktop successfully ?
-Thanks

First of all I hate VISTA...
Second no problem in WindowsXP with my WM6.1 ROM
Third Tskschedule.exe is only added from WM6.1,so maybe vista haven't get ready to support WM6.1
Kavana .. I could not agree more. I have it working on XP. But it has been frustrating on VISTA
btw, Thanks a ton for the ROM..
-sunjay
has there been any progress with this... as my vista laptop will not see my dash anymore
I got the same problem as Sunjay. Now only can connect with Vista/WMDC6.1 by luck. I got 2 Excaliburs, the one with Original WM5 never has problems connecting with Vista/WMDC6.1.
I am still researching.. Have not made much headway yet.
From what I understood from reading other forums on similar issues. There my be duplicate Notifications which may be causing this.. However, I did try using SKTools (demo version), and went thru notification events to check for duplicates, There were a couple of entries for the same program, but they seem to occur for different conditions.
I have also posted in the Micro$oft forums, hoping to get some clue
-Thanks
very odd....
On whim, I re-installed WMDC 6.1 (x64) downloaded directly from the MS download center... and all of a sudden no more problems/ The only thing, is the WMDC recognizes the phone as a dopod 720w. But it works a treat...
I hope that helps (the x86 wdmc 6.1 is also available... but you probably new this)
I will give it a shot and see if it help. In the meantime, Please post if it works or fails after your prolonged use..
-Thanks

will continue to monitor and update as is necessary
I did get this error and i was using WinXP Activesync v 4.5 . but i only got it once. and only once. i just thought it was a glitch , but now it seems this may be some sort of issue, just that it doesn't happen often enough for me to downgrade back to WM 6.0 ... if it starts to happen again i will re-post
Update: I guess i spoke to soon. It happened again, but something that i was doing on my PC both times it happened was i had windows media player opened on my PC and i was playing a video stream at the same time on media player. Coincedence?

very interesting:
two questions: what OS are you using (xp or vista) and what edition of WMDC center are you using (6.1)?

I did look, and the aforementioned is what had me confused... as the OP was regarding VISTA. I was trying to simply ascertain if the problem was not "OS-centric" and was occurring on multiple OS'
Which I guess it is...
Sorry for the confusion... as the solution that I happened along to was vista only.

I know you're looking for a vista fix. just know that are also issues similar when using win XP too . Although they may not be directly linked together , nor will the fix for both OS's neccessarily be the same. these might end up being the same problem, but different ways to create the problem, thus different fixes for the problem, depending on your OS
Lastly, this may have something to to with what i call "interoperability with 3rd party programs on a new OS" issues. Sometimes certain "combinations of programs" installed on a phone can create these issues.
This happened for me using XP as well, I don't really know what the issue is, because it synced properly before.
It works now !!
I got it to work now Thanks to Poser's suggestion in the earlier post. This is what I did
- De-install everything from VISTA which is windows mobile related (WMDC 6.1 & it had an entry for some mobile driver update)
- Rebooted the desktop
- Downloaded the WMDC 6.1 from download.microsoft.com. The filename is drvupdate-x86.exe for WMDC 6.1
- Installed the above software & rebooted.
- Has synced everytime since without errors.
I will post back if I see any errors..
Thanks
@Pudge - gotcha. Yeah sometimes to many "cooks" can spoil the soup...
I hope that you can find a fix.... have you considered upgrading to XP sp3 (I think you can dig up torrents and/or reg hacks to allow you to see it via Windows update). Also a re-install of active sync could be in order
@Sunjay... sweet dude, let me know if it continues to remain stable.
Hi,
I've searched over this forum and cant find an answer to what I need so I figured I would post.
I have a HTC S620 (sim free) and it has WM5 on. I would like to upgrade to WM6. (not 6.1 yet.) I have looked over this forum and found lots of stuff on how to do it and I have tried 2 different ROMs and also watched the you tube video.
When I use the official wm6 ROM, (even before I have tried to install the ROM) my phone gets to the white screen stage and then disconnects which means the ROM installer doesnt work because the phone isn't connected.
I have also tried to isntall the kavana 6.1 version and the ROM installer comes up with an error code which says the model isnt compatiable.
The wm6 official upgrade looks more promising if any one has any solutions? although any solutions would be very welcome.
thanks
James.

James,
How long have you had BT Anywhere as they have all been WM6 since over a year ago? Should bare any difference anyway, the phone will stop active sync when it goes white anyway.
You should be able to upgrade to WM6.1 without any hitches with following the "Upgrade to WM6.1" you should do this before hand http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2807194&postcount=485 if getting error message "mind you may help if know what the message is?"
Hi cheers for the reply. It's not a BT one, its actually a second hand one off ebay so I assume its pretty old. Its just branded as HTC...

Wow i must have been reading something totally different to posted lol
Still go with previous post to flash WM6.1 if you want to upgrade to WM6 you need to know what the original carrier of the phone is does it have a carrier plas on load?
Mind you i'd flash to WM6.1 if i was you as it's an advancemet far greater than WM5 to WM6
Hi again,
I've just tried the kavana 6.1 ROM following all the instructions you've said. It got as far as the white screen (through the DOS programme) and then it lost its USB connection which means the ROM installer wouldnt work as it couldnt find a connection. I'm running windows vista.
thanks

When the whitescreen launches WMDC will stop sync and the computer takes over via it's own driver, did you leave it there with the white screen or just disconnect Dash when WMDC disconected?
ive yet to change a rom on vista because of the lack of ativesync which is really dumb

I left it there with the white screen, didnt touch any USB connections or anything. When I did this, the windows sound sounded (as in when something is disconnected) and the green light went off on the phone and the ROM installer wouldnt run because it says the phone is disconnected...Cheers for your help btw
James.
Isn't there a center key press on the d-pad in there somewhere? Are you doing that?
Hi guys, I've managed to resolve the issue and im all sorted now. Just used a different USB port. Thanks for your help
